Expression and clinical significance of CC motif chemokine ligand 20 in esophageal carcinoma based on the Cancer Genome Atlas data mining

Objective To explore the expression and significance of CC mokif chemokine ligand 20(CCL20)gene in esophageal carcinoma and its influence on the progression and prognosis of the disease.Methods The expression data of esophageal cancer were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database,and were collected from cBioPortal(www.cbioportal.org).The survival curve was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Through the website(http://ualcan.path.uab.edu)the objective was to analyze the expression of CCL20 gene in esophageal cancer tissues,the relationship between CCL20 and obesity and the methylation level of CCL20 in esophageal cancer.cBioPortal was used to analyze the copy number and mRNA expression of CCL20 gene.Finally,the expression differences of CCL20 in esophageal cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by mRNA and protein levels.Results CCL20 was highly expressed in esophageal cancer,especially adenocarcinoma.The survival rate of patients with high expression of CCL20 was reduced.The expression of CCL20 was directly proportional to the degree of obesity in patients with esophageal cancer and inversely proportional to the degree of methylation.The expression of CCL20 in esophageal cancer tissues increased significantly.Conclusion CCL20 gene expression level is associated with poor prognosis of esophageal cancer patients.
