Abstract

Reliable predictive data are crucial for making accurate treatment decisions in glioma patients, but it can be challenging to obtain due to limited information in many cases. Numerous research studies have indicated the involvement of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-response element binding protein (CREBBP) and E1A binding protein p300 (EP300) in tumorigenesis and tumor progression across various types. The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels of CREBBP and EP300 were retrospectively analyzed in 17 grade-3 glioma patients. The SYBR Green real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique was employed for mRNA expression analysis, with the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (GAPDH) used as a reference gene for data normalization. In addition, the relationship between CREBBP, EP300 expression and patients' clinical information, imaging features, histologic features, immune factors, and overall survival was assessed through univariate analyses. The analysis of the data unveiled a statistically significant upregulation of CREBBP and EP300 mRNA expression levels in large gliomas as compared with their smaller counterparts (P < .05). Histological examination using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining exhibited marked cellular heterogeneity, with heightened cell density observed specifically within tumors displaying elevated CREBBP expression levels. In contrast, there was a substantial downregulation of complement 3 and complement 4 within larger tumor volumes when compared with smaller ones (P < .05). However, these findings do not serve as clinically relevant prognostic indicators for glioma. It is suggested that higher expression levels of CREBBP and EP300 are positively associated with increased tumor volume. Inhibition of CREBBP and EP300 enhances local immunogenicity, leading to the recruitment of immune cells and release of cytokines for effective tumor eradication, ultimately resulting in the inhibition of tumor growth.
