Protocadherin B9 Is Associated with Tumorigenesis and Cancer Progression in Colorectal Cancer
Background: Genes encoding transmembrane proteins expressed specifically in cancer cells may be ideal therapeutic targets or biomarkers for diagnosis. Methods: In the present study, we investigated the expression and function of PCDHB9, which encodes transmembrane protein protocadherin B9 in colorectal cancer (CRC). Results: Immunohistochemical analysis showed that 39 (26%) of 148 CRC cases were positive for protocadherin B9. Expression of protocadherin B9 correlated with lymphatic invasion, venous invasion, and T classification and was weakly detected in adenomas by immunohistochemistry. Although PCDHB9 knockdown did not change cell growth and invasion activity in CRC cell lines, cell adhesion to fibronectin was significantly reduced by PCDHB9 knockdown. Expressions of ITGA3, ITGA4, ITGA5, ITGB1, and ITGB6 were significantly reduced by PCDHB9 knockdown. In addition, the number of spheres was significantly decreased by PCDHB9 knockdown. Conclusion: These results suggest that protocadherin B9 might be associated with colorectal tumorigenesis and cancer progression in CRC.
期刊介绍:
''Pathobiology'' offers a valuable platform for the publication of high-quality original research into the mechanisms underlying human disease. Aiming to serve as a bridge between basic biomedical research and clinical medicine, the journal welcomes articles from scientific areas such as pathology, oncology, anatomy, virology, internal medicine, surgery, cell and molecular biology, and immunology. Published bimonthly, ''Pathobiology'' features original research papers and reviews on translational research. The journal offers the possibility to publish proceedings of meetings dedicated to one particular topic.
