Background: A systematic analysis was conducted to clarify the relationship between miR-143/145 and the prognosis of colorectal cancer. Materials and methods: We searched four databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. We extracted and estimated the hazard ratios for survival outcomes, which compared low and high expression levels of miR-143/145 in colorectal cancer patients in the available studies. Each individual hazard ratio was used to calculate the pooled hazard ratio. Results: A total of 17 articles including 5128 patients were ultimately included. The results showed that there was no significant difference between low expression and high expression of miR-143 in the overall survival of colon cancer patients. However, low expression of miR-143 was significantly associated with high event-free survival (hazard ratio (HR) 0.6; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40, 0.88). Low expression of miR-145 was associated with poor prognosis of patients (HR 1.92; 95% CI 1.45, 2.54); those with low expression of miR-145 were at 1.92-fold higher risk for short-term overall survival than those with high expression of miR-145. MiR-145 was an unfavorable factor for the prognosis of colorectal cancer. There were no significant differences between low expression of miR-145 and high expression of miR-143 in event-free survival. Conclusion: miR-143 and miR-145 have promising prognostic value for colorectal cancer. Low expression of miR-143 can predict high event-free survival, and low expression of miR-145 can predict poor overall survival.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common tumours in developed countries. Although its incidence and mortality rates have decreased, its prognosis has not changed, and a high percentage of patients with CRC develop relapse (metachronous metastasis, MM, or local recurrence, LR) during their disease. The identification of these patients is very important for their correct management, but the lack of prognostic markers makes it difficult. Given the connection between circadian disruption and cancer development and progression, we aimed to analyse the prognostic significance of core circadian proteins in CRC. We measured the expression of PER1-3, CRY1-2, BMAL1 and NR1D2 in a cohort of CRC patients by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and analysed their prognostic potential in this disease. A low expression of PER2 and BMAL1 was significantly associated with metastasis at the moment of disease diagnosis, whereas a high expression of CRY1 appeared as an independent prognostic factor of MM development. A high expression of NR1D2 appeared as an independent prognostic factor of LR development after disease diagnosis. Moreover, patients with a low expression of BMAL1 and a high expression of CRY1 showed lower OS and DFS at five years. Although these markers need to be validated in larger and different ethnic cohorts, the simplicity of IHC makes these proteins candidates for personalizing CRC treatment.

Objective: Protein arginine deiminase (PADs) are a family of enzymes that catalyse the post translational modification (PTM) of proteins. In this study the prognostic significance of PAD2 and PAD4 in colorectal cancer (CRC) was assessed. Design: PAD2 and PAD4 expression was assessed immunohistochemically in a cohort of CRC patients. Association between PAD expression with clinicopathology, protein expression and outcome was determined. Results: CRC tissues expressed variable levels of PAD2 which was mainly localised in the cytoplasm and correlated with patient survival (p=0.005); high expression increased survival time from 43.5 to 67.6 months. Expression of cytoplasmic PAD2 correlated with expression of nuclear β catenin, PAD4 and alpha-enolase. In contrast expression of nuclear PAD2 correlated with a decrease in survival (p=0.010), with high expression decreasing survival from 76.4 to 42.9 months. CRC tissues expressed variable levels of PAD4 in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Expression of cytoplasmic PAD4 correlated with survival (p=0.001) with high expression increasing survival time from 48.1 to 71.8 months. Expression of cytoplasmic PAD4 correlated with expression of, nuclear β catenin, alpha-enolase (p≤ 0.0001, p=0.002) and the apoptotic related protein, Bcl-2. Expression of nuclear PAD4 also correlated with survival (p=0.011) with high expression of nuclear PAD4 increasing survival time from 55.4 to 74 months. Expression of nuclear PAD4 correlated with p53, alpha-enolase and Bcl-2. Multivariate analysis showed that TNM stage and cytoplasmic PAD2 and PAD4 remained independent prognostic factors in CRC. Conclusion: Both PAD2 and PAD4 are good prognostic factors in CRC.

Introduction We aimed to assess the effect of VEGF-A, PDGF-BB, and c-Met expression levels on survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving bevacizumab therapies. Patients and methods A total of 105 patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal cancer between the years 2006 and 2016 were included in the research retrospectively. Results The progression-free survival (PFS) durations of patients with high expression levels of VEGF-A and with low expression levels of VEGF-A were 11 months and 10 months (p = 0.44), respectively. The PFS durations of patients with high PDGF-BB expression and low PDGF-BB expression were 12 months and 10 months (p = 0.16), respectively, while the PFS durations of patients with high and low c-Met expression were 8 months and 13 months (p = 0.005), respectively. Metastatic overall survival was 27 months and 18 months (p = 0.05) in patients with high and low VEGF-A expression levels, respectively, 31 months and 21 months (p = 0.16) in patients with high and low PDGF-BB expression levels, respectively, and 21 months and 26 months (p = 0.11) in patients with high and low c-Met expression levels, respectively. Conclusion The results of this research revealed a high c-Met expression relationship with worse PFS and low VEGF-A expression associated with poor metastatic overall survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving bevacizumab therapies.

We report that decreased expression of miR-30c in tumor compared to adjacent tissue is sex-dependent in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. High expression of miR-30c was associated with better survival in the whole cohort. When the cohort was split into male and female subcohorts, decreased miR-30c expression in tumor compared to adjacent tissue was observed only in males. Expression of miR-30c was decreased in CRC tumor tissue in male patients with nodes involvement compared to those without metastases in nodes and this difference was not observe in females. Next dependency of miR-30c expression on oestrogen receptor β (ERβ) mRNA levels in tumor was tested. In males with low expression of ERβ, we observed a significant decrease in miR-30c levels in patients with nodes involvement compared to those without nodes involvement. This difference was not observed in males with high ERβ mRNA levels and in females. Accordingly, males with low expression of ERβ and high expression of miR-30c showed a better survival that those with low expression ERβ and low expression of miR-30c. It is possible to conclude that whole cohort survival dependence on miR-30c is mostly generated by a subcohort of males with low expression of ERβ mRNA in tumor tissue.

Abstract Background CKLF Like Marvel Transmembrane Domain Containing 1 (CMTM1) plays a role in breast cancer and lung cancer, but studies on the occurrence and development of CMTM1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have not been reported. Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and immunohistochemistry (IHC) were used to detect CMTM1 expression in HCC tissues. The relationship between CMTM1 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of HCC patients was analyzed by chi-square test, and the relationship between CMTM1 expression and the prognosis of HCC patients was tested by the Kaplan–Meier model. Results Bioinformatics analysis showed that the mRNA expression of CMTM1 was upregulated in HCC tissues, and low expression of CMTM1 is associated with longer disease-free survival in patients with HCC. Similarly, the survival time of HCC patients in CMTM1 high expression group was significantly shorter than that in CMTM1 low expression group. IHC detection indicated that CMTM1 protein was highly expressed in both HCC and adjacent non-tumor tissues, with a positive expression in 84% (63/75) of HCC tissues and 89.3% (67/75) of adjacent non-tumor tissues. Moreover, CMTM1 expression was related to family history and TNM stage of HCC patients (P < 0.05), but had no relationship with other clinicopathological characteristics. The survival analysis based on IHC results showed that the prognosis of HCC patients in CMTM1 negative group was significantly poorer than that in CMTM1 positive group (P < 0.05). Conclusion CMTM1 has a high expression in HCC tissues and is related to the prognosis of HCC patients.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogeneous disease that can currently be subdivided into four distinct consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) based on gene expression profiling. The CMS4 subtype is marked by high expression of mesenchymal genes and is associated with a worse overall prognosis compared to other CMSs. Importantly, this subtype responds poorly to the standard therapies currently used to treat CRC. We set out to explore what regulatory signalling networks underlie the CMS4 phenotype of cancer cells, specifically, by analysing which kinases were more highly expressed in this subtype compared to others. We found AKT3 to be expressed in the cancer cell epithelium of CRC specimens, patient derived xenograft (PDX) models and in (primary) cell cultures representing CMS4. Importantly, chemical inhibition or knockout of this gene hampers outgrowth of this subtype, as AKT3 controls expression of the cell cycle regulator p27KIP1. Furthermore, high AKT3 expression was associated with high expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) genes, and this observation could be expanded to cell lines representing other carcinoma types. More importantly, this association allowed for the identification of CRC patients with a high propensity to metastasise and an associated poor prognosis. High AKT3 expression in the tumour epithelial compartment may thus be used as a surrogate marker for EMT and may allow for a selection of CRC patients that could benefit from AKT3-targeted therapy.

Abstract Background Tumour associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are considered dominant cells in glioblastoma microenvironment. Aim The purpose of this study was to assess the expression of CD204+ M2-polarized TAMs in glioblastomas and their relationship with CD4+TILs, Iba+microglia, and IDH1 mutation. We also exploreed the prognostic value of these markers on the recurrence-free interval (RFI). Methods The expressions of CD204+TAMs, CD4+TILs, and Iba1+microglia were quantitively assessed in 45 glioblastomas using immunohistochemistry. Kaplan–Meier analysis and Cox hazards were used to examine the relationship between these factors. Results CD204+TAMs were highly expressed in 32 tumours (71%) and the remaining 13 tumours (29%) had reduced expression. CD4+TILs were highly expressed in 10 cases (22%) and 35 cases (77.8%) had low expression. There was an inverse correlation between CD204+TAMs and CD4+TILs, in which 85% of tumours had a high expression of CD204+TAMs and a low expression of CD4+TILs. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference in IDH1 mutation status between the two groups (p = 0.779). There was a significant difference in Iba1+microglial activation between IDH1mutant and IDH1wildtype groups (p = 0.031). For cases with a high expression of CD204+TAMs and a low expression of CD4+TILs, there was a significant difference in RFI after treatment with chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy (p = 0.030). Conclusion Glioblastoma with a dense CD204+TAMs and few CD4+TILs is associated with IDH1wildtype. These findings suggest that TAMs masks tumour cell and suppress T-cell tumoricidal functions via immunomodulatory mechanisms. Blockade of the CD204-TAM receptor may prevent this mechanism and allow the evolution of TILs.
