BACKGROUND: Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) has a high recurrence rate after surgery. Cofilin overexpression is associated with increased tumor cell metastasis, and progression of various human cancers. However, studies on cofilin expression in JNA are rare. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression and localization of cofilin in a tissue microarray (TMA) of JNA specimens. In addition, we also analyzed its correlation with clinicopathological features and recurrence.
METHODS: Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect cofilin expression in a TMA of samples from 70 JNA patients and 10 control subjects. The association between clinicopathological variables and cofilin immunostaining was analyzed using Pearson's chi-square test. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to calculate the disease-free survival rate, and investigate the effect of cofilin expression on time to recurrence (TTR) in JNA patients. The Cox regression model was used for multivariate survival analysis.
RESULTS: Cofilin was detected in irregular smooth muscle cells, pericytes, less differentiated stromal cells, and plump cells, but not in inactive fibroblasts and mature vascular endothelial cells of JNA specimens. The presence of cofilin in JNA was correlated with tumor stage (p = 0.012) and volume of intraoperative hemorrhage (p < 0.001). JNA patients with high cofilin expression had a higher recurrence rate than those with low cofilin expression (p = 0.012). Cofilin expression and patient's age were significant predictors of TTR, and cofilin was a better predictor for disease recurrence (area under the receiver operating curve [AUROC; 0.711; p = 0.005) than other clinicopathological features.
CONCLUSION: Cofilin is an independent prognostic marker for JNA patients who have undergone surgical treatment and may represent a novel therapeutic target for extensive JNA.
