Abstrakt: | Aims: To evaluate the potential role of interleukin-31 and interleukin-33 in diagnosis and prognosis from endometrial cancer. Methods: Tissue samples and clinical data were collected from 260 patients with endometrial cancer and 150 control patients with benign uterine diseases. Immunohistochemistry and ELISA testing quantified the expressions of interleukin-31 and interleukin-33 and their receptors. After surgery, all patients were followed up for an average of 56.3 months. Surgical effects were evaluated based on the patients' symptoms and signs. A two-sided P value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: IL-31, IL-33 and their receptors were significantly accumulated with the progression of endometrial cancer, in comparison to the controls. Moreover, the expressions were correlated with clinical characteristics, including tumor stage, differentiation, and associated with patients' disease-free survival. Conclusions: Limited data was available between the expressions of IL-31 and IL-33 and the receptors in patients with endometrial cancer. Our study findings suggested that the expressions of IL-31 and IL-33 might become possible biomarkers for the diagnosis and prediction in endometrial cancer. Competing Interests: None.
