Peroxiredoxin 2 is associated with colorectal cancer progression and poor survival of patients.

ABSTRACT: The present study was to investigate the clinical significance of peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2), an oncoenzyme, in the development and progression of colorectal cancer(CRC).We found levels of PRDX2 mRNA and protein were higher in CRC cell lines than in normal human colonic epithelial cells. PRDX2 expression was significantly up-regulated in CRC lesions compared with that in the adjacent noncancerous tissues. CRC tissues from 148 of 226 (65.5%) patients revealed high level of PRDX2 protein expression in contrast to only 13 of 226 (5.8%) PRDX2 strong staining cases in the adjacent noncancerous tissues. Increased expression of PRDX2 protein was significantly associated with poor tumor differentiation (p = 0.001), advanced local invasion (p = 0.046), increased lymph node metastasis (p = 0.008), and advanced TNM stage (p = 0.020). Patients with higher PRDX2 expression had a significantly shorter disease-free survival and worse disease-specific survival than those with low expression. Importantly, PRDX2 up-regulation was an independent prognostic indicator for stage I-III, early stage (stage I-II) and advanced stage (stage III) patients. In conclusion, our findings suggest PRDX2 up-regulation correlates with tumor progression and could serve as a useful marker for the prognosis of CRC.

Project description:Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) plays a key role in tumorigenesis and progression, such as cell proliferation, angiogenesis and metastasis. ApoE overexpression was associated with aggressive biological behaviors and poor prognosis in a variety of tumor according to previous studies. This study aimed to assess the prognostic value and explore the potential relationship with tumor progression in colorectal cancer (CRC). We collected the expression profiling microarray data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), investigated the ApoE expression pattern between the primary CRC and liver metastasis of CRC, and then explored the gene with prognostic significance based on the TCGA database. ApoE high expression was associated with poor overall survival (OS, p = 0.015) and progression-free survival (PFS, p = 0.004) based on the public databases. Next, ApoE expression was evaluated in two CRC cohorts by immunohistochemistry, of whom 306 cases were stage II and 201 cases were metastatic liver CRC. In the cohort of the liver metastasis, the ApoE expression was increasing in normal mucosa tissue, primary colorectal cancer (PC), and colorectal liver metastases (CLM) in order. Meanwhile, the level of ApoE expression in stage II tumor sample which had no progression evidence in 5 years was lower than that in PC of synchronous liver metastases. The high ApoE expression in PC was an independent risk factor in both stage II (HR = 2.023, [95% CI 1.297-3.154], p = 0.002; HR = 1.883, [95% CI 1.295-2.737], p = 0.001; OS and PFS respectively) and simultaneous liver metastasis (HR = 1.559, [95% CI 1.096-2.216], p = 0.013; HR = 1.541, [95% CI 1.129-2.104], p = 0.006; OS and PFS respectively). However, the overexpression of ApoE could not predict the benefit from the chemotherapy in stage II. The study revealed that the relevance of the ApoE overexpression in CRC progression, conferring a poor prognosis in CRC patients especially for stage II and simultaneous liver metastasis. These finding may improve the prognostic stratification of patients for clinical strategy selection and promote CRC clinic outcomes.
