Abstract:

Objective

To explore the expression of inward rectifier potassium channel Kir4.1 in malignant gliomas and its correlation and correlation mechanism with epilepsy, edema and other symptoms of gliomas through database and document analysis.

Methods

Oncomine database was used to analyze the expression of glioblastoma compared with normal brain tissue in TCGA data set. Specimens and pathological information of patients with different clinical grades of glioma were collected to analyze the expression of Kir4.1 in different grades of glioma. Kir4.1 mutations in gliomas were analyzed by cbioportal database.

Results

The results of oncomine database showed great differences due to the differences of sample size. RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry showed that the expression of Kir4.1 in high-grade glioma was less than in low-grade glioma, but the expression of Kir4.1 in low-grade glioma was higher than in normal brain tissues, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The cbioportal database showed that the mutation probability of Kir4.1 was extremely low in glioblastoma, and the difference between partial genome alteration and the number of mutations was statistically significant (P<0.05). MSH2, ERRFI1, CTNNB1, SEPRINE1, FOXM1, RAD50 and other genes were highly expressed in the altered group, while INPP4B, XBP1, AXL and other genes were highly expressed in the non-altered group.

Conclusion

The expression of Kir4.1 is different in different grades of glioma. High grade glioma has lower expression of Kir4.1, and the expression of Kir4.1 may be related to epilepsy, edema and other clinical symptoms in patients with high grade glioma, which provides a new idea for exploring the potential mechanism of Kir4.1 in glioblastoma in the future.

Key words: Glioblastoma, Inward rectifier potassium channel Kir4.1, Epilepsy, Edema, Proliferation
