Annexin A3 is a mammary marker and a potential neoplastic breast cell therapeutic target.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancers are the most common cancer-affecting women; critically the identification of novel biomarkers for improving early detection, stratification and differentiation from benign tumours is important for the reduction of morbidity and mortality.To identify and functionally characterise potential biomarkers, we used mass spectrometry (MS) to analyse serum samples representing control, benign breast disease (BBD) and invasive breast cancer (IDC) patients. Complementary and multidimensional proteomic approaches were used to identify and validate novel serum markers.Annexin A3 (ANX A3) was found to be differentially expressed amongst different breast pathologies. The diagnostic value of serum ANX A3 was subsequently validated by ELISA in an independent serum set representing the three groups. Here, ANX A3 was significantly upregulated in the benign disease group sera compared with other groups (P < 0.0005).In addition, paired breast tissue immunostaining confirmed that ANX A3 was abundantly expressed in benign and to a lesser extent malignant neoplastic epithelium. Finally, we illustrated ANX A3 expression in cell culture lysates and conditioned media from neoplastic breast cell lines, and its role in neoplastic breast cell migration in vitro.This study confirms the novel role of ANX A3 as a mammary biomarker, regulator and therapeutic target.

Project description:Gasdermin (GSDM) family members are involved in numerous biological processes, including pyroptosis, as well as in the initiation and progression of various types of cancer. However, the specific role of GSDM genes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has yet to be fully clarified. The present study investigated the differential expression and genetic alterations GSDM genes, their effects on prognosis and immune modulation, and their functional enrichment in ccRCC. Several bioinformatics databases were used, including UALCAN, The Cancer Genome Atlas, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis, Metascape, Tumor Immune Estimation Resource, GSCALite and cBioPortal. The results revealed that the expression levels of GSDMA, GSDMB, GSDMC and GSDMD were significantly upregulated in cancer tissues compared with those in paracancerous tissues in patients with ccRCC, whereas the expression of DFNB59 exhibited the opposite trend. The results were experimentally validated in patients with ccRCC, and it was confirmed that the expression levels of GSDMA, GSDMB, GSDMC, GSDMD and GSDME (DFNA5) were significantly enhanced, whereas (PJVK, DFNB59) expression was reduced. In addition, elevated GSDMB, GSDMD and DFNA5 expression levels were clearly associated with worse pathological characteristics of ccRCC, including a high pathological stage and high tumor grade. Furthermore, the high expression levels of GSDMB, GSDMC, GSDMD, DFNA5 and PJVK were shown to be associated with worse overall survival (OS) and progression-free interval in patients with ccRCC. Both univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that the expression of GSDMB was independently associated with the OS of patients with ccRCC. Additionally, a high mutation rate of GSDM genes (33%) was observed in patients with ccRCC, and GSDM gene mutations were also significantly associated with a poor OS in patients with ccRCC. Significant associations between GSDM genes and ccRCC immunoprofiling and drug sensitivity were also determined. In conclusion, the findings of the present study indicated that GSDMB, GSDMD and DFNA5 may be considered promising therapeutic agents and potential biomarkers for patients with ccRCC. Furthermore, GSDMB could act as an independent predictor for the OS of patients with ccRCC.
