Tumor Suppressor Gene XEDAR Promotes Differentiation and Suppresses Proliferation and Migration of Gastric Cancer Cells Through Upregulating the RELA/LXRα Axis and Deactivating the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway.

ABSTRACT: X-linked ectodermal dysplasia receptor (XEDAR) is a new member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family that induces cell death. The purpose of this study is to determine the tumor-suppressive potential of XEDAR in the development and differentiation of gastric cancer (GC). XEDAR levels were analyzed in human GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues by immunohistochemistry (IHC), quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR), and Western blot analysis. We found that XEDAR expression was significantly downregulated in GC tissues and further decreased in low differentiated GC tissues. Overexpression of XEDAR in MKN45 and MGC803 cells suppressed the ability of cell proliferation and migration, whereas silencing XEDAR showed the opposite effect. Additionally, XEDAR silenc
