Perilipin (PLIN) is a major structural protein located on the surface of lipid droplets. PLIN plays an important role in human metabolism and is associated with metabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and endocrine disorders. The dysregulation of lipid metabolism is one of the most prominent metabolic changes observed in cancers. Therefore, the PLIN protein family has recently attracted attention owing to its role in lipid metabolism and cancer. To date, no studies have addressed the association between the prognosis of lung cancer and PLIN1 expression. For the first time, we found that high PLIN1 expression was significantly correlated with worse disease-free survival (DFS) in lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We examined PLIN1 expression by the immunohistochemical analysis of surgical lung SCC specimens obtained from 94 patients. We analyzed the correlation between PLIN1 expression, clinicopathological data, and patient survival, using a chi-squared test, Kaplan–Meier analysis with log-rank tests, and the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression test. High PLIN1 expression was significantly correlated with lower DFS in the Kaplan–Meier analysis and the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model. High PLIN1 expression was significantly correlated with worse prognosis in lung SCC. |
