Mesoderm/mesenchyme homeobox l may promote tumor progression in human hepatocellular carcinoma.
Background: The clinical response rate for molecularly targeted medications is limited despite significant advancements in molecularly targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Therefore, it is necessary to find new and robust therapeutic targets for the treatment of HCC. Recent research has shown that mesoderm/mesenchyme homeobox gene 1 (Meox1) is closely associated with cancer progression.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical relevance as well as biological function of Meox1 in HCC.
Material and methods: Meox1 protein expression level was identified through immunohistochemistry (IHC) examination of pathological tissues from 25 HCC patients. The aim of the analysis was to investigate the relationship between clinicopathological traits and Meox1 expression. Biological function assays of Meox1 in HCC, including proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion, were performed with Huh7 and Hep3B cells.
Results: In this study, Meox1 expression in HCC tissues was significantly higher (p < 0.05) compared to paracancerous tissues. Especially in HCC tissues of patients with cirrhosis, the level of Meox1 expression was significantly elevated when compared to HCC tissues of patients without cirrhosis (p < 0.05). High Meox1 expression was significantly associated with tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage (p < 0.05) and the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage (p < 0.05). Moreover, Meox1 silencing suppressed the proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion of Huh7 and Hep3B cells.
Conclusions: Our data reveal that Meox1 may play a crucial role in the development of HCC, and given the function of Meox1 in proliferation and metastasis, targeting Meox1 may offer a promising approach for combined and adjuvant therapeutics of HCC.
期刊介绍：
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been published by the Wroclaw Medical University since 1992. Establishing the medical journal was the idea of Prof. Bogumił Halawa, Chair of the Department of Cardiology, and was fully supported by the Rector of Wroclaw Medical University, Prof. Zbigniew Knapik. Prof. Halawa was also the first editor-in-chief, between 1992-1997. The journal, then entitled "Postępy Medycyny Klinicznej i Doświadczalnej", appeared quarterly.
Prof. Leszek Paradowski was editor-in-chief from 1997-1999. In 1998 he initiated alterations in the profile and cover design of the journal which were accepted by the Editorial Board. The title was changed to Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine. Articles in English were welcomed. A number of outstanding representatives of medical science from Poland and abroad were invited to participate in the newly established International Editorial Staff.
Prof. Antonina Harłozińska-Szmyrka was editor-in-chief in years 2000-2005, in years 2006-2007 once again prof. Leszek Paradowski and prof. Maria Podolak-Dawidziak was editor-in-chief in years 2008-2016. Since 2017 the editor-in chief is prof. Maciej Bagłaj.
Since July 2005, original papers have been published only in English. Case reports are no longer accepted. The manuscripts are reviewed by two independent reviewers and a statistical reviewer, and English texts are proofread by a native speaker.
The journal has been indexed in several databases: Scopus, Ulrich’sTM International Periodicals Directory, Index Copernicus and since 2007 in Thomson Reuters databases: Science Citation Index Expanded i Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.
In 2010 the journal obtained Impact Factor which is now 1.179 pts. Articles published in the journal are worth 15 points among Polish journals according to the Polish Committee for Scientific Research and 169.43 points according to the Index Copernicus.
Since November 7, 2012, Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been indexed and included in National Library of Medicine’s MEDLINE database. English abstracts printed in the journal are included and searchable using PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.
