Abstract:

The incidence of endometrial cancer is increasing year by year, which has attracted widespread attention. However, the molecular and genetic mechanismd of endometrial cancer are still unclear. PTEN (phosphatase gene lost on chromosome 10 homologous to tensin) is the gene with the highest mutation rate in endometrial cancer known at present. Detection of its mutation is helpful to early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis evaluation of endometrial cancer and provides a new target for gene therapy of endometrial cancer. In addition, the study found that the transcription of PTENP1 (PTEN's pseudogene) regulates the expression of PTEN, which is believed to be related to the occurrence of some tumors. This article reviews the structure and function of PTEN gene, its mutation in endometrial cancer, its clinical significance and the research status of PTENP1.

Key words: Endometrial carcinoma, PTEN, PTENP1, Gene mutation
