    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study is to explore the prognosis value of PTPRH in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). METHODS: Oncomine, UALCAN, and GEPIA databases were employed to examine the differential expression of PTPRH between LUAD and adjacent tissues. 100 pairs of LUAD and adjacent tissue samples were involved in this study. qRT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining were performed. Meanwhile, we analyzed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data to investigate the correlation between PTPRH gene expression and clinicopathological characteristics. Kaplan-Meier analysis and univariate and multivariate Cox analyses were performed to estimate the relationship between PTPRH expression and LUAD prognosis. The evaluation performance was verified by drawing a ROC curve. In addition, through GSEA, the changes of PTPRH expression were analyzed by GSEA to screen out primarily affected signaling pathway. RESULTS: Oncomine, UALCAN, and GEPIA databases showed that the mRNA expression of PTPRH in LUAD tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues. qRT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining indicated the mRNA and protein levels of PTPRH in LUAD tissues were markedly upregulated. TCGA data showed that the expression of PTPRH was significantly correlated with T stage and disease stage. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the patients with high PTPRH expression had a poor prognosis. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses exhibited that PTPRH expression could act as an independent prognostic factor for LUAD. The ROC curve showed that PTPRH combined with various clinicopathological features could effectively predict the prognosis of LUAD. Finally, GSEA indicated that changes in PTPRH expression level may affect p53, VEGF, Notch, and mTOR cancer-related signaling pathways. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrated that PTPRH was highly expressed in LUAD and may be closely correlated with the poor prognosis of LUAD patients.
