| Abstract | BACKGROUND. Hydatidiform mole (HM), the most common type of gestational trophoblastic diseases, can be considered as placenta with abnormal chromosome composition with potential of malignant transformation. Few biologic markers can predict subsequent development of persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) requiring chemotherapy. METHODS. Suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) combined with cDNA microarray was used to compare the differential expression pattern of HM that spontaneously regressed and that subsequently developed metastatic GTN. Tissue-specific chips were constructed from the subtracted cDNA libraries, followed by cDNA microarray analysis. Verification by quantitative RNA analysis by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemical analysis was performed in 23 genotyped complete HM. RESULTS. Sixteen differentially expressed transcripts were identified. Quantitative RNA analysis confirmed down-regulation of ferritin light polypeptide (FTL) (P = 0.037) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP1) (P = 0.037) in HM that subsequently developed GTN when compared with those HM that regressed. Immunohistochemical analysis further confirmed reduced IGFBP1 protein (P = 0.03) expression in HM that developed GTN. CONCLUSIONS. Findings showed that reduced expression of genes related to cell invasion and immunosuppression, especially FTL and IGFBP1, were associated with development of GTN, and this finding may provide a better understanding of the pathogenesis of GTN. The potential application of FTL and IGFBP1 in management of patients with HM should be explored. © 2005 American Cancer Society. |
