Objective: To investigate the relationship between phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1) and clinicopathological parameters of breast cancer and its prognostic significance. Methods: (1)The matrix data and clinical data of PGK 1 mRNA expression in breast cancer and normal breast tissues were downloaded from TCGA and GEO databases. The relationship between PGK 1 mRNA expression in breast cancer tissues and clinicopathological features was analyzed. Logistics regression was used to evaluate the independent risk factors of PGK 1 mRNA expression. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves to analyze the relationship between PGK 1 mRNA expression level and overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients. (2)From January 2022 to January 2023, 50 cases of breast cancer and normal breast tissue specimens were collected from the Department of Breast Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College. The expression levels of PGK1 in breast cancer and normal breast tissues were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and immunohistochemical staining, respectively. The relationship between PGK 1 expression and clinicopathological parameters in breast cancer tissues was analyzed, and Logistics regression was used to evaluate the independent risk factors related to PGK1 expression. Results: (1)The expression of PGK1 mRNA in breast cancer was significantly higher than that in normal breast tissue (P<0.05). (2)ER, PR and HER-2 were independent risk factors for PGK1 mRNA expression. (3)The high expression of PGK 1 mRNA was positively correlated with the decrease of overall survival. (4)The expression of PGK 1 in breast cancer was statistically significant. (5)ER, PR and HER-2 were independent risk factors affecting the expression of PGK1. Conclusion: (1)The expression level of PGK1 in breast cancer is significantly increased. (2)The expression of ER, PR, HER-2 is positively correlated with the expression of PGK1. (3) High expression of PGK1 may be a potential predictor of poor prognosis of breast cancer.
