Abstract EN
The role of hyaluronan (HA), serum-derived HA-associated protein (SHAP)-HA complex and hyaluronan synthase (HAS) in endometrial carcinomas was investigated.
The relationship of metalloproteinase (MMP) and its inhibitor (TIMP) with HA and the SHAP-HA complex was also examined.
The expression of HAS1 was related to the depth of myometrial invasion and lymph-vascular space involvement.
The serum levels of HA, SHAP-HA complex, MMP-9, and TIMP-1 were increased in related with the depth of myometrial invasion, histological grade and lymph-vascular space involvement.
They were also higher in the HAS1-positive group compared to -negative group.
The serum concentrations of HA and SHAP-HA complex had a significant correlation with the MMP-9 and TIMP-1.
The patients with elevated SHAP-HA complex had the shorter disease-free survival.
The multivariate analysis revealed that the SHAP-HA complex was the independent variable for disease-free survival of endometrial cancer patients.
In conclusion, the elevation of serum SHAP-HA complex depended on the HAS1 expression and the SHAP-HA complex is a useful marker to predict disease recurrence in endometrial cancer patients.
The SHAP-HA complex may promote the lymph-vascular space involvement and the synthesis and activation of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the progression of endometrial cancer.
