Biomarkers Associated with Lymph Nodal Metastasis in Endometrioid Endometrial Carcinoma

Abstract: Introduction. Lymph node metastasis is determinant in the prognosis and treatment of endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) but the risk–benefit balance of surgical lymph node staging remains controversial. Objective. Describe the pathways associated with lymph node metastases in EEC detected by whole RNA sequencing. Methods. RNA-sequencing was performed on a retrospective series of 30 non-metastatic EEC. N+ and N− patients were matched for tumoral size, tumoral grade and myometrial invasion. Results. Twenty-ei… Show more

“…A previous found that metabolic disorders are closely associated with tumor stage, grade, lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI) and LNM of EC, therefore representing an independent risk factor of EEC (13). Previous studies analyzed stage I and II cases without adnexal pathological factors, and found that patients with type I EC without depth of MI ≥1/2 had a significant risk of ovarian metastasis and LNM (14,15). However, the association between metabolic abnormalities and MI is not clear.…”

“…Another study proposed a panel of eight gene biomarkers for predicting LNM in patients with early stage endometrial cancer ( 34 ). The activation of several pathways involved in biologic processes, such as epithelial–mesenchymal transition, extracellular matrix formation and smooth muscle contraction could be considered ( 35 ). Although obtaining molecular signatures at a preoperative stage is currently a challenge, molecular features provide assessment opportunities in addition to those of clinical variables, and their complementary integration might lead to a new scoring system with better predictive performance for LNM in endometrial cancer.…”
