ZP3 Expression in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Its Implications for the Prognosis and Therapy.
Background: The role of Zona pellucida glycoprotein 3 (ZP3) is unclear in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD).
Objective: This study aimed to explore the role of ZP3 in PAAD.
Methods: A comparative analysis of ZP3 gene expression was performed to discern differences between various types of cancer and PAAD, leveraging data sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). This study aimed to assess the role of ZP3 as a potential diagnostic marker for PAAD. The relationship between ZP3 levels and clinical characteristics, as well as patient outcomes, was scrutinized. Additionally, genomic enrichment analysis was carried out to uncover the underlying regulatory mechanisms associated with ZP3. The study further delved into the association of ZP3 with immune system interactions, checkpoint gene expression, Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), and tumor stemness index (mRNAsi). The aberrant expression patterns of ZP3 in PAAD cell cultures were confirmed through the application of quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) techniques.
Results: ZP3 exhibited aberrant expression in both pan-cancer and PAAD. A significant correlation was observed between increased levels of ZP3 expression in PAAD patients and histologic grade (p = 0.026). Elevated ZP3 expression in PAAD was found to be significantly associated with poorer overall survival (p = 0.003), progression-free survival (p = 0.012), and disease-specific survival (p = 0.002). In PAAD, the level of ZP3 gene expression was statistically significant (p < 0.001) and recognized as a key determinant of patient prognosis. ZP3 exhibited associations with various biological pathways, including primary immunodeficiency, oxidative phosphorylation, and other pathways. ZP3 expression demonstrated correlations with immune infiltration, immune checkpoint genes, TMB, MSI, and mRNAsi in PAAD. Moreover, a pronounced negative correlation was detected between ZP3 expression levels and the therapeutic effectiveness of various medications, including selumetinib, bleomycin, FH535, docetaxel, and tanespimycin, within the context of PAAD. Elevated levels of ZP3 were consistently observed in cell line models of PAAD.
Conclusion: ZP3 has the potential to serve as a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for patients with PAAD.
期刊介绍:
Protein & Peptide Letters publishes letters, original research papers, mini-reviews and guest edited issues in all important aspects of protein and peptide research, including structural studies, advances in recombinant expression, function, synthesis, enzymology, immunology, molecular modeling, and drug design. Manuscripts must have a significant element of novelty, timeliness and urgency that merit rapid publication. Reports of crystallization and preliminary structure determination of biologically important proteins are considered only if they include significant new approaches or deal with proteins of immediate importance, and preliminary structure determinations of biologically important proteins. Purely theoretical/review papers should provide new insight into the principles of protein/peptide structure and function. Manuscripts describing computational work should include some experimental data to provide confirmation of the results of calculations.
