Clinicopathological Significance

Background Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) has a strong function of tumor suppression involving apoptosis regulation, autophagy, and metastasis inhibition. Hypermethylation of CpG islands in DAPK gene promoter region is one of the important ways to inactivate this tumor suppressor gene, which might promote lung carcinogenesis. However, the clinicopathological significance of the DAPK promoter hypermethylation in lung cancer remains unclear. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis trying to estimate the clinicopathological significance of DAPK promoter hypermethylation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods A detailed literature search for publications relevant to DAPK gene promoter methylation and NSCLC was made in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, CSTJ, Wanfang databases, and SinoMed (CBM). The random-effects model and fixed-effects model were utilized to pool the relative ratio based on the heterogeneity test in the meta-analysis. Results A total of 41 studies with 3348 patients were included. The frequency of DAPK methylation was significantly higher in NSCLC than in non-malignant control (odds ratio (OR) = 6.88, 95% confidence interval (CI):  4.17–11.35, P < 0.00001). The pooled results also showed that DAPK gene promoter hypermethylation was significantly associated with poor prognosis for overall survival in patients with NSCLC (hazard ratio: 1.23, 95% CI:1.01–1.52, P = 0.04). Moreover, DAPK gene promoter hypermethylation was significantly associated with squamous cell carcinoma (OR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.01–1.54, P = 0.04) and smoking behavior (OR: 1.42, 95% CI: 1.04–1.93, P = 0.03) but not with TNM stage, tumor differentiation, age, or gender. Conclusion DAPK promoter hypermethylation might be a candidate diagnostic and prognostic tumor marker for NSCLC.
