Clinical significance of chromatin remodeling factor CHD5 expression in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Chromodomain helicase DNA-binding 5 (CHD5), which is a member of the CHD family, has been identified as a tumor suppressor gene in a variety of malignancies. The aim of the current study was to clarify the clinical significance of CHD5 expression in gastric cancer. CHD5 expression was evaluated using immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 154 specimens resected from patients with gastric cancer from January 2011 to December 2013, and assessed its relationships with clinicopathological characteristics and survival. In vitro cell proliferation, invasion, and migration assays and western blotting analysis were performed to clarify the role of CHD5 in human gastric cancer cell lines. Of a total of 154 patients, 57 (37.0%) exhibited low CHD5 expression, which was significantly assoc
