Higher expression of cell division cycle-associated protein 5 predicts poorer survival outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The upregulation of cell division cycle associated protein 5 (CDCA5) has been observed in various cancer types. However, the prognostic value of CDCA5 and its underlying mechanism contributing to tumorigenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain poorly understood. We used tissue microarray (TMA) to evaluate the prognosis of 304 HCC samples based on their CDCA5 expression, and analyzed the genomic features correlated with CDCA5 by using dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Compared with adjacent normal tissues, increased expression of CDCA5 was found in HCC tissues. Moreover, higher expression of CDCA5 was associated with inferior OS and DFS outcomes in HCC patients. The enrichment plots showed that the gene signatures in cell cycle, DNA replication and p53 pathways were enriched in patients with higher CDCA5 expression. Meanwhile, statistically higher mutations burdens in TP53 could also be observed in CDCA5-high patients. Integrative analysis based on miRNAseq and methylation data demonstrated a potential association between CDCA5 expression and epigenetic changes. In conclusion, our study provided the evidence of CDCA5 as an oncogenic promoter in HCC and the potential function of CDCA5 in affecting tumor microenvironment.

Higher Expression of SPP1 Predicts Poorer Survival Outcomes in Head and Neck Cancer.

Project description:Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) participated in various biological processes in many cancers, including immune response, tumor progression, and prognosis. However, SPP1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains unknown. Clinical-genetic data of HNSCC were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The differential expression of SPP1 in HNSCC tissues and adjacent normal tissues was quantified by bioinformatics methods and verified by western blot and other differential biological methods. We concluded that SPP1 is significantly upregulated in tumor tissues and can become a prognostic biomarker for HNSCC.

Nuclear division cycle 80 complex is associated with malignancy and predicts poor survival of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:The NDC80 (nuclear division cycle 80) complex takes part in chromosome segregation by forming an outer kinetochore and providing a platform for the interaction between chromosomes and microtubules, thus impacting the progression of mitosis and the cell cycle. The clinical significance of its components, NDC80, nuf2, spc24, and spc25, were widely explored in various malignancies respectively, yet seldom were they studied from the perspective of a complex. This paper explores the clinical importance of the NDC80 kinetochore complex components in terms of their expression level, prognostic value, and therapeutic potential in HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma) patients. With the data from several paired HCC samples from Nanfang Hospital, HCC patients from the TCGA database and other cases from GSE89377, we analyzed the expression levels of the NDC80 complex components, NDC80/nuf2/spc24/spc25, along with the survival data as well as other clinical features using statistical methods and GSEA. The study found that a high expression of NDC80 complex predicts poor survival, and these components have the potential to be used as therapeutic targets.

Prognostic implications of cell division cycle protein 45 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundThe overall prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is poor and novel prognostic biomarkers might better monitor the progression of HCC. Cell division cycle protein 45 (CDC45) plays a key role in DNA replication and considered to be involved in tumorigenesis. This study investigated CDC45 expression in tumour tissues and defined its prognostic value in HCC patients.MethodsWe used immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining to examine the expression of CDC45 in tumour tissue specimens and compare them with adjacent normal tissue specimens using a constructed tissue microarray (TMA) and analyzed how clinical features are related to HCC prognosis. Functional enrichment analyses were used to describe significantly involved hallmark pathways of differentially expressed genes (DEGs, which were screened out according to the high or low expression of CDC45 in tumour tissues).ResultsOur findings showed that the proteome expression of CDC45 was evidently downregulated in HCC tissues compared with matched normal tissues (P < 0.0001). Although we did not find any differences in terms of vascular invasion, metastasis, lymphatic infiltration, or Edmondson grade between patients with high and low CDC45 expression, low CDC45 expression was significantly correlated with microvascular invasion (P = 0.046). Multivariate analysis indicated that CDC45 expression (P = 0.035) was an independent prognostic factor for the overall survival (OS) rate of HCC patients. Patients with CDC45 expression was positively correlated with OS rates among HCC patients (P < 0.05). Functional annotations indicated that CDC45 is involved in the most significant pathways, including the cell cycle, DNA replication, chemical carcinogenesis and drug metabolism-cytochrome P450 pathways.DiscussionOur findings showed that low proteomic level of CDC45 was associated with a poor prognosis in HCC patients, indicating that CDC45 might be a novel prognostic marker.

A Seven-microRNA Expression Signature Predicts Survival in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth common cancer. The differential expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been associated with the prognosis of various cancers. However, limited information is available regarding genome-wide miRNA expression profiles in HCC to generate a tumor-specific miRNA signature of prognostic values. In this study, the miRNA profiles in 327 HCC patients, including 327 tumor and 43 adjacent non-tumor tissues, from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) were analyzed. The associations of the differentially expressed miRNAs with patient survival and other clinical characteristics were examined with t-test and Cox proportional regression model. Finally, a tumor-specific miRNA signature was generated and examined with Kaplan-Meier survival, univariate\multivariate Cox regression analyses and KEGG pathway analysis. Results showed that a total of 207 miRNAs were found differentially expressed between tumor and adjacent non-tumor HCC tissues. 78 of them were also discriminatively expressed with gender, race, tumor grade and AJCC tumor stage. Seven miRNAs were significantly associated with survival (P value <0.001). Among the seven significant miRNAs, six (hsa-mir-326, hsa-mir-3677, hsa-mir-511-1, hsa-mir-511-2, hsa-mir-9-1, and hsa-mir-9-2) were negatively associated with overall survival (OS), while the remaining one (hsa-mir-30d) was positively correlated. A tumor-specific 7-miRNAs signature was generated and validated as an independent prognostic predictor. Collectively, we have identified and validated an independent prognostic model based on the expression of seven miRNAs, which can be used to assess patients' survival. Additional work is needed to translate our model into clinical practice.

Cholecystectomy is associated with higher risk of early recurrence and poorer survival after curative resection for early stage hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:Although cholecystectomy has been reported to be associated with increased risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the association between cholecystectomy and prognosis of HCC patients underwent curative resection has never been examined. Through retrospective analysis of the data of 3933 patients underwent curative resection for HCC, we found that cholecystectomy was an independent prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients at early stage (BCLC stage 0/A) (p?=?0.020, HR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.04-1.59), and the 1-, 3-, 5-year RFS rates for patients at early stage were significantly worse in cholecystectomy group than in non-cholecystectomy group (80.5%, 61.8%, 52.0% vs 88.2%, 68.8%, 56.8%, p?=?0.033). The early recurrence rate of cholecystectomy group was significantly higher than that of non-cholecystectomy group for patients at early stage (59/47 vs 236/333, p?=?0.007), but not for patients at advanced stage (BCLC stage C) (p?=?0.194). Multivariate analyses showed that cholecystectomy was an independent risk factor for early recurrence (p?=?0.005, HR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.13-2.03) of early stage HCC, but not for late recurrence (p?=?0.959). In conclusion, cholecystectomy is an independent predictor for early recurrence and is associated with poorer RFS of early stage HCC. Removal of normal gallbladder during HCC resection may be avoided for early stage patients.

CD1d expression in renal cell carcinoma is associated with higher relapse rates, poorer cancer-specific and overall survival.

Project description:AimsWe hypothesised that CD1d expression in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) may play a role in modifying the host immune response. Our aims were to investigate the expression of CD1d and to correlate this with histopathology and clinical outcomes in a cohort study of patients with RCC.MethodsGene expression and tissue microarray studies on a panel of RCC tissue were performed. Clinicopathological correlation was analysed using χ(2)/Fisher's exact test. Relapse-free survival, cancer-specific survival and overall survival were calculated for both CD1d high and low expressors. Survival outcomes were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using Cox regression analysis.ResultsGene expression microarray showed significant expression of CD1d in RCC versus normal renal tissue. By immunohistochemistry, we found that CD1d expression significantly associated with tumour stage/grade, higher relapse rates, poorer cancer-specific and overall survival.ConclusionsCD1d expression on RCC correlated with aggressive disease and poorer clinical outcomes.

Higher expression of A-kinase anchoring-protein 1 predicts poor prognosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:A-kinase anchoring protein 1 (AKAP1) plays important regulatory roles in the regulation of mitochondrial function, oxidative metabolism, and cell survival. However, the expression pattern and prognostic value of AKAP1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. AKAP1 expression levels in tumor and matched non-tumor tissues were evaluated using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to analyze the survival rates. We found that AKAP1 protein expression was increased in HCC tissues, and high AKAP1 expression was associated with tumor size (P=0.024), Tumor-Node-Metastasis stage (P=0.0296) and portal vein thrombosis (P=0.00498). Kaplan-Meier survival analyses further revealed that high AKAP1 expression was associated with poor overall (P=0.004) and disease-free survival (DFS) (P=0.002) rates in patients with HCC. Multivariate survival analysis revealed that AKAP1 served as an independent poor prognostic factor for DFS rates. The findings of the present study indicated that AKAP1 expression may contribute to HCC progression. High AKAP1 expression could serve as a valuable prognostic biomarker in predicting the survival of patients with HCC following radical resection.

Co-expression of PKM2 and TRIM35 predicts survival and recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:The identification of prognostic markers for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is needed for clinical practice. Tripartite motif-containing 35 (TRIM35) is a tumor suppressor of HCC. TRIM35 inhibits phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase isoform M2 (PKM2), which is involved in aerobic glycolysis of cancer cells. We found that expression of PKM2 was significantly increased in HCC tissues. This overexpression of PKM2 was correlated with a high TNM stage and level of vascular invasion. Patients with HCC who were positive for PKM2 expression and negative for TRIM35 expression had shorter overall survival and time to recurrence than patients who were negative for PKM2 and positive for TRIM35. Furthermore, PKM2/TRIM35 combination was an independent and significant risk factor for recurrence and survival. In conclusion, PKM2 (+) and TRIM35 (-) contribute to the aggressiveness and poor prognosis of HCC. PKM2/TRIM35 expression could be a biomarker for the prognosis of HCC and target for cancer therapy.

Altered epidermal fatty acid-binding protein expression in hepatocellular carcinoma predicts unfavorable outcomes.

Project description:Objective:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rapidly proliferating malignancy that requires large amounts of fatty acids to synthesize cellular membranes and provide energy. Epidermal fatty acid-binding protein (EFABP) is uniquely expressed in epidermal cells, but its role and expression in HCC are not clear. Subjects and methods:A total of 804 HCC specimens were collected to construct a tissue microarray (TMA) and for immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. The relationship between EFABP expression and clinical features of patients with HCC was analyzed. Results:The EFABP IHC score for HCC tissue was 0.76±0.69, being significantly higher than that for matched nontumorous tissue (0.48±0.55; P<0.001). Using the median IHC score (ie, 0.8) in the tumorous tissue, a high level of EFABP expression was found in 57.3% (461/804) of the cases. Patients with HCC displaying high EFABP expression had poorer tumor differentiation (P=0.029), more vascular invasion (P=0.006), and a higher proportion of late TNM stage disease (P=0.042). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the patients with high EFABP expression had significantly worse outcomes in terms of overall survival (P=0.003), worse disease-free survival (P=0.021), and a higher probability of recurrence (P=0.014). Multivariate analysis indicated that EFABP expression was an independent prognostic variable for overall survival (P=0.021) and disease-free survival (P=0.044). For HCC recurrence, only vascular invasion (P=0.020) and EFABP expression (P=0.026) were independent risk factors. Conclusion:Our data revealed that EFABP expression was increased in HCC samples. High EFABP expression was correlated with shorter survival times in patients with HCC and served as an independent factor for worse outcomes. Our study therefore provides a promising bio-marker for the prognostic prediction of HCC and a potential therapeutic target for the disease.

A Methylation-Based Signature Predicts Survival In Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patient

Project description:Epigenetic deregulation is a critical event in human malignancies. A number of DNA methylation markers are currently under evaluation as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for many cancers. However, its potential role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is under-explored. Aims: To develop a DNA methylation-based prognostic signature in surgically resected HCC Tumors from 224 HCC resected patients, 10 normal Liver individuals and 9 Cirrhotic patients were analyzed. Methylome profiling was done with Illumina HumanMethylation450 (485,000 CpG, 96% of known CpG islands). We selected probes in CpG islands located in promoters, hypermethylated (B value higher than 50%) in at least 5% of the tumors and hypomethylated (B value lower than 33%) in more than 90% of normal liver.
