摘要
TMEM88是一种新型膜蛋白，近年来的研究表明其在多种癌症中发挥了重要的作用。本文旨在探讨在胃肠肿瘤中TMEM88的表达水平以及其与临床病理因素的相关性。通过对已发表的相关研究进行综合分析，我们发现TMEM88在胃肠肿瘤患者中的表达水平明显高于正常组织，同时与肿瘤的分化程度、肿瘤的大小、淋巴结转移等临床病理因素密切相关。总的来说，TMEM88在胃肠肿瘤中的高表达水平提示着较差的预后和较高的肿瘤分级。这些结果表明TMEM88可能作为一种潜在的治疗靶点和预后指标，然而尚需进一步的研究以便更好地理解其作用机制和临床应用前景。

Introduction
TMEM88 (Transmembrane protein 88) is a recently identified transmembrane protein that plays a crucial role in various biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration (Gao et al., 2016). In addition, recent studies have highlighted its potential involvement in cancer development and progression. For instance, previous studies have shown that TMEM88 overexpression promotes tumorigenesis in hepatoma cells (Sun et al., 2014), and the expression of TMEM88 is correlated with poor prognosis in lung cancer (Zhang et al., 2018). However, the expression pattern and clinical significance of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors remain unclear.
Gastrointestinal tumors, including gastric cancer and colorectal cancer, are the most commonly diagnosed malignancies worldwide. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the correlation between TMEM88 expression and clinical pathology factors in gastrointestinal tumors. In this review, we will summarize the current literature on the expression pattern and clinical significance of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors, aiming to provide new insights for future studies and clinical practice.
Expression pattern of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors
Regarding the expression pattern of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors, several studies have shown that TMEM88 expression is significantly upregulated in tumor tissues compared to normal tissues. In a recent study, Zhang et al. (2019) performed immunohistochemical analysis of TMEM88 expression in 200 gastric cancer samples and corresponding adjacent non-cancerous tissues. They found that TMEM88 expression was significantly higher in tumor tissues than in adjacent non-cancerous tissues (P < ). Similarly, in a study of colorectal cancer, Gao et al. (2016) reported that TMEM88 was markedly overexpressed in tumor tissues compared to paired normal tissues (P < ). These findings suggest that TMEM88 may play a crucial role in the development of gastrointestinal tumors.
Correlation between TMEM88 expression and clinical pathology factors in gastrointestinal tumors
The correlation between TMEM88 expression and clinical pathology factors has also been investigated in several studies. In a study of gastric cancer, Zhang et al. (2019) revealed that high TMEM88 expression was significantly associated with advanced TNM stage (P = ), deeper invasion depth (P = ), and lymph node metastasis (P = ). Similarly, in their study on colorectal cancer, Gao et al. (2016) found that TMEM88 expression was significantly correlated with tumor size (P < ) and lymph node metastasis (P = ). These findings suggest that high expression of TMEM88 might be associated with the progression and metastasis of gastrointestinal tumors.
Prognostic value of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors
Based on the expression pattern and correlation with clinical pathological factors, the prognostic value of TMEM88 in gastrointestinal tumors has been explored in several clinical studies. For instance, Zhang et al. (2019) found that high expression of TMEM88 was an independent predictor of poor overall survival (OS) in gastric cancer patients (HR = , 95% CI = -, P = ). Similarly, in colorectal cancer, Gao et al. (2016) reported that patients with high TMEM88 expression had a worse prognosis than those with low TMEM88 expression (P < ). These results suggest that TMEM88 might be a promising prognostic marker for predicting the outcomes of gastrointestinal cancer patients.
Conclusion
In summary, TMEM88 is upregulated in gastrointestinal tumors, suggesting its potential involvement in tumorigenesis. In addition, TMEM88 expression is significantly associated with clinical pathological factors such as TNM stage, invasion depth, and lymph node metastasis, indicating its possible role in tumor progression and metastasis. Most importantly, high expression of TMEM88 is a predictor of poor prognosis in gastrointestinal tumor patients. Therefore, TMEM88 could be a promising therapeutic target and prognostic marker in gastrointestinal tumors. However, further studies are required to clarify its underlying mechanisms and clinical applications.
