Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of DDX46 protein in colorectal cancer and its correlation with expressions of C-erbB-2, Ki-67, p53 and nm23 proteins. Methods A total of 149 cases of colorectal cancer tissues and 45 adjacent mucosa tissues after operation in the Wuxi No.2 Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2010 to December 2012 were collected. The expressions of DDX46 protein and C-erbB-2, Ki-67, p53 and nm23 proteins in tissues of colorectal cancer were detected by using immunohistochemistry. The relations between the expression level of DDX46 protein and the clinicopathological features including the age, gender, tumor differentiation, tumor infiltration, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage were analyzed, and the relations between DDX46 protein expression and expressions of C-erbB-2, Ki-67, p53 and nm23 proteins were also analyzed. Results Of 149 colorectal cancer tissues, 50 (33.6％) showed low expressions of DDX46 protein and 99 (66.4％) showed high expressions. Of 45 adjacent mucosa tissues, 37 (82.2％) showed low expressions of DDX46 protein, and 8 (17.8％) showed high expressions. There were significant differences between the high expression rate of DDX46 protein in cancer tissues and adjacent mucosa tissues (χ2=33.09, P<0.01). There were statistical differences in the expression level of DDX46 protein and tumor differentiation, tumor infiltration, lymph node metastasis, TNM staging (all P<0.05). The ratio of high-expressed DDX46 protein was increased with the low differentiation, high invasion degree, lymph node metastasis and late TNM staging. DDX46 protein expression was correlated with expressions of Ki-67, p53 and nm23 proteins (all P< 0.05), and the expression of DDX46 protein had a positive correlation with expressions of Ki-67 and p53 proteins (r values were 0.161 and 0.347), and a negative correlation with expression of nm23 protein (r= -0.561). Conclusions The high expression of DDX46 protein in colorectal cancer tissues is related with malignant biological behavior of the tumors and the key oncogenes. DDX46 protein could be regarded as the potential marker for the diagnosis and molecular targeting therapy of colorectal cancer.
