MDM2 is a useful prognostic biomarker for resectable gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Expression of MDM2 protein appears to be increased in malignancy and correlated to prognosis of tumors, but its role in gastric cancer remains controversial. Our recent investigations indicated that JWA was a novel candidate biomarker for gastric cancer. To evaluate the impact of MDM2 protein expression alone, and in combination with JWA, on the prognostic and predictive of patients with resectable gastric cancer, expression of MDM2 and JWA were examined by immunohistochemistry in three large cohorts (total n = 1131) of patient with gastric cancer. We found that MDM2 protein levels were significantly upregulated in gastric cancer (70.4%, 57 of 81) compared with adjacent non-cancerous tissues. High tumoral MDM2 expression significantly correlated with clinicopathologic characteristics, as well as with shorter overall survival (OS; P < 0.001 for all cohorts) in patients without adjuvant treatment. The effect of adjuvant fluorouracil-leucovorin-oxaliplatin (FLO) in improving OS compared with surgery alone was evident only in the high MDM2 group (hazard ratio = 0.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.37-0.89; P = 0.013). Furthermore, knockdown of MDM2 and overexpression of JWA had a synergistic effect on suppression of gastric cancer cell proliferation and migration. Patients with low MDM2 and high JWA expression had a better outcome of survival compared with the other groups (P < 0.001 for all cohorts). For the first time, our data suggest that MDM2 is a potent prognostic and predictive factor for benefit from adjuvant fluorouracil-leucovorin-oxaliplatin chemotherapy in resectable gastric cancer. The combination of MDM2 expression and JWA could serve as a more effective candidate prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer.

Project description:Objective: This study aimed to identify the hub gene in gastric cancer (GC) tumorigenesis. A biomarker prediction model was constructed and analyzed, and protein expression in histopathological samples was verified in a validation cohort. Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from GC projects in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs was performed between the high- and low- Ribonuclease P protein subunit p30 (RPP30) expression groups. ROC analysis was performed to assess RPP30 expression to discriminate GC from normal tissues. Functional enrichment pathways and immune infiltration of DEGs were analyzed using GSEA and ssGSEA. Survival analysis and nomogram construction were performed to predict patient survival. Immunohistochemical staining of GC tissues was performed to validate RPP30 expression in GC and paracancerous samples. Results: Gene expression data and clinical information of 380 cases (375 GC samples and 32 para-cancerous tissues) were collected from TCGA database. The AUC for RPP30 expression was found to be 0.785. The G alpha S signaling pathway was the most significantly enriched signaling pathway. Primary therapy outcome (p < 0.001, HR = 0.243, 95% CI = 0.156-0.379), age (p = 0.012, HR = 1.748, 95% CI = 1.133-2.698), and RPP30 expression (p < 0.001, HR = 2.069, 95% CI = 1.346-3.181) were identified as independent prognostic factors. As a quantitative approach, a nomogram constructed based on RPP30 expression, age, and primary therapy outcome performed well in predicting patient survival. Nineteen of the 25 tissue samples from the validation cohort showed positive RPP30 expression in GC tissues, whereas 16 cases showed negative RPP30 staining in normal tissues. The difference between the two was statistically significant. Conclusion: High RPP30 expression was significantly correlated with disease progression and poor survival in GC, promoting tumorigenesis and angiogenesis via tRNA dysregulation. This study provides new and promising insights into the molecular pathogenesis of tRNA in GC.
