Objective: To investigate the expression of FRAT1 and β-catenin in human brain glioma, analyze the correlation between the expression and clinical pathological grades and the correlation of the two genes. Methods: FRAT1 and β-catenin were detected by immunohistochemistry in 84 human brain glioma tissues and 6 human normal brain tissues. Results: 66.7% (56/84) and 77.4% (65/84) of human brain glioma tissues expressed FRAT1 and β-catenin protein, whereas no FRAT1 and β-catenin protein expression was detected in human normal brain tissues. The expression levels of FRAT1 and β-catenin increased markedly with the ascending of pathologic grade of tumor specimens (r = 0.55, P < 0.01, r = 0.70, P < 0.01), there was a positive correlation between FRAT1 and β-catenin (r = 0.77, P < 0.01). Conclusion: FRAT1 and β-catenin over-expression maybe closely related with occurrence and development of human brain gliomas. The results provide important supplements for the research of Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Meanwhile, FRAT1 may act as a valuable biomarker for molecular diagnosis of glioma and a potential target for gene therapy of glioma. 相似文献

Background
The E-cadherin-catenin complex plays a crucial role in epithelial cell-cell adhesion and in the maintenance of tissue architecture. Perturbation in the expression or function of this complex results in loss of intercellular adhesion, with possible consequent cell transformation and tumour progression. 相似文献3.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the immunoexpression of E-cadherin, β-catenin, and Ki-67, as well as the promoter methylation of E-cadherin gene in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), as well as to find a possible relationship between the immunoexpression and hypermethylation. Promoter methylation was studied using methylation-specific PCR in 86 malignant cases, 14 low malignant potential (LMP) tumors and 19 benign cystadenomas. Immunohistochemical expression was carried out in 64 malignant cases, 8 LMP tumors, and 11 benign cystadenomas. Immunoexpression of E-cadherin was reduced in EOC, while 100 % expression was seen in LMP tumors and benign cystadenomas. An interesting observation was the nuclear expression of E-cadherin in a high percentage of cancers, which showed a positive correlation with Ki-67. Β-Catenin expression showed heterogeneous localization with increased nuclear localization, which was significantly higher in cases that did not express E-cadherin. Promoter methylation of E-cadherin was 36, 14, and 11 % in EOC, LMP tumors, and benign cystadenomas, respectively. Our results suggest that reduced expression of E-cadherin is associated with promoter methylation of E-cadherin gene, in addition to providing evidence for the aberrant nuclear localization of E-cadherin in EOC. 相似文献

Wnt/β-catenin pathway plays an important role in initiation and progression of colorectal oncogenesis. The aim of this study
was to determine expression and localization of E-cadherin, β-catenin and Wnt-1 proteins in colorectal tumors. Expression
of β-catenin, E-cadherin and Wnt-1 was determined by immunohistochemistry on advanced colorectal cancers. Abnormal expression
of E-cadherin, β-catenin, Wnt-1 was observed. Additionally, we revealed correlations between levels of studied proteins and
histoclinical data. In multivariate analysis nuclear β-catenin, higher carcinoembryonic antigen serum level before treatment,
female sex and tumor localized in colon or rectum were independent unfavorable prognostic factors. These findings support
the hypothesis that Wnt/β-catenin pathway plays an important role in advanced colorectal carcinoma. 相似文献

A correlation between osteopontin, E-cadherin, β-catenin, and cyclooxygenase 2 overexpression and poor clinicopathological features and prognosis has been previously suggested in gastric cancer. This translational study was aimed at assessing the correlation of these immunohistochemical biomarkers with outcome in patients with radically resected gastric cancer. We analyzed osteopontin, E-cadherin, β-catenin, and cyclooxygenase 2 expression by immunohistochemistry in 346 primary gastric tumor tissue samples from patients enrolled in the ITACA-S trial. This phase III study randomized patients with radically resected gastric cancer to receive adjuvant chemotherapy with either 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin or a sequential regimen of infusional 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin plus irinotecan followed by cisplatin and docetaxel. High expression of osteopontin was correlated with high histological grade, diffuse histotype, and peritoneal relapse, but not with TNM stage. Moreover, osteopontin overexpression was associated with higher risk of tumor recurrence and metastases, and was an independent prognostic factor for both relapse-free and overall survival of gastric cancer patients following adjuvant chemotherapy. Abnormal E-cadherin expression and abnormal β-catenin expression were correlated with more advanced disease stage, and as a consequence, with poor outcome. Our results suggest that osteopontin overexpression is a valuable independent predictor of tumor recurrence and survival in patients with radically resected gastric cancer. 相似文献

Aberrant activation of the Wnt signalling pathway is a key feature of many cancers. β-Catenin, adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and E-cadherin are major players in this pathway. The aim of this study is to examine the expression of β-catenin, APC and E-cadherin in tumour tissues of 80 Tunisian patients with gastric carcinoma and to determine the methylation status of the APC promoter in tumour tissues. Associations between protein expression and clinico-pathological parameters, including prognosis, were performed. Positive expression of β-catenin, APC and E-cadherin was observed in 77.5, 68.7 and 60 % of cases, respectively. Tumours lacking membranous expression of β-catenin had greater extent of lymph node metastasis, poor differentiation and advanced T-stage. The expression of E-cadherin correlated with poor differentiation (P?=?0.05) and β-catenin expression (P?=?0.004). With regards to prognosis, the overall survival time was significantly prolonged for patients showing normal β-catenin expression (exclusively or predominantly membranous staining) alone or combined with positive APC expression (P log rank?=?0.008 and 0.003, respectively). The methylated pattern of APC promoter 1A was detected in 43.8 % of cases and correlated with T-stage (P?=?0.046) and distant metastasis (P?=?0.037). No correlation was found between the methylated profile of APC promoter 1A and the expression of APC protein in tumour tissues. Our findings suggest that deregulation of the Wnt pathway via abnormal expression of β-catenin and E-cadherin occurred frequently in gastric carcinoma and correlated with worse clinical behaviour. 相似文献

Objective To study the relationship between expressions of α-, β-catenins and cyclin D1 and the occurrence, infiltration and metastasis
of breast cancer.
Methods High sensitive S-P immunohistochemical method was used to detect the protein expressions of α-, β-catenins and cyclin D1 in
the 60 cases of breast cancer tissues.
Results Abnormal immunoreactivities of α-and β-catenins were observed in 37 (61.7%) and 42 (70%) cases of breast cancer tissues, respectively.
There were 28 cases (46.7%) who showed cyclin D1 overexpression. The abnormal expression rates of α-and β-catenins in infiltrating
lobular carcinoma (ILC) were significantly higher than those in infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) (P < 0.05), but they had no relations to the extent of differentiation and lymphatic metastasis of breast cancer (P > 0.05). The overexpression rate of cyclin D1 was correlated with tumor stage and lymphatic metastasis of breast cancer (P < 0.05), but not with histological type and the extent of differentiation (P > 0.05). Cyclin D1 overexpression was observed in 57.1% (24/42) of these cases that showed abnormal staining of β-catenin,
but only observed in 22.2% (4/18) of these cases with normal membranous staining of β-catenin. There was a significantly positive
correlation between the abnormal expression of β-catenin and overexpression of cyclin D1 (r
s = 0.321, P < 0.05).
Conclusion The abnormal expression of β-catenin may play an important role in the genesis of breast cancer by triggering cyclin D1 overexpression
in breast cancer. The abnormal expressions of α-and β-catenins are not a key factor in malignant cell metastasis in breast
cancer, but may also involve in the progress. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression of TGF-β1,Snail,E-cad-herin and N-cadherin in gastric cancer(GC),and to examine its relationship to malignant features of the tumors. METHODS The expression of TGF-β1,Snail,E-cadherin and N-cadherin proteins was detected in GC and adjacent tissues by immunohistochemical staining,and compared with the clinico-pathological data. RESULTS Positive rates of expression for TGF-β1,Snail,E-cadherin and N-cadherin were 63.5%,83.3%,37.5%and 44.8%in GC,and 28.8%, 41.3%,100%,11.3%in adjacent tissues,respectively.The expression of all four proteins showed a significant difference between the GCs and adjacent tissues(P<0.05).The positive rate of TGF-β1,Snail and N-cadherin,or the negative rate of E-cadherin expression was significantly related to the differentiated degree,histological type,invasion and metastasis of GC.In addition,the expression of N-cadherin was positively related to that of TGF-β1, but negatively related to that of E-cadherin.There was negative correlation between expression of E-cadherin and TGF-β1 and Snail in GC(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The over-expression of TGF-β1 and Snail and decreased expression of E-cadherin and the abnormal expression of N-cad-herin were involved in the process of invasion and metastasis of GC.The data showed that E-cadherin might switch to N-cadherin.TGF-β1 and Snail might play a fundamental role in the process. 相似文献

Objective: The aim of our study was to observe the expressions and clinical Significance of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex in breast cancer and precancerous lesions, and analyze the relationship between the expressions and clinicopathological features in breast cancer. Methods: Immunhistochemical UltraSensitiveTM S-P method was employed to detect the expression of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex in 128 cases of invasive ductal carcinomas, 89 cases of ductal carcinoma in situ and 57 cases of atypical ductal hyperplasia, 53 cases of usual ductal hyperplasia breast tissues were selected as a control group. The express of E-cadherin, β-catenin and their relationship with mult biological parameters including histological grade, region lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and recurrence on files were also assessed. Results: (1) The staining patterns character of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex: In UDH breast tissues, E-cadherin and a-catenin were expressed on cell membrane of ductal and acinic cells, showing cellular contour and border among cells. The abnormal expression of the three proteins occurred in breast invasive ductal carcinomas, ductal carcinoma in situ and atypical ductal hyperplasia tissues, showing cytoplasmic or nuclear staining, decrease and loss of cytomembrane staining. (2) The abnormal expression rates of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex in invasive ductal carcinomas were 53.91%, 65.63% and 81.25%, which were significantly higher than that in ductal carcinoma in situ, atypical ductal hyperplasia, usual ductal hyperplasia tissues (P 〈 0.01). Compared with usual ductal hyperplasia breast tissues group, the abnormal expression rates of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex were significantly decreased (P 〈 0.01) in the breast cancer group. However, there was no significance of the abnormal expression rate between ductal carcinoma in situ and atypical ductal hyperplasia tissues groups (X2 = 0.76, P = 0.38; x2 = 0.14, P = 0.70; x2 = 0.81, P = 0.37; X2 = 2.19, P = 0.14) (P 〉 0.05). (3) There was a significantly difference in the mean E-cadherin, β-catenin and E- cadherin-catenins complex frequency between estrogen receptor & progesterone receptor positive IDC group and negative group, epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2/neu) positive and negative groups, Ki-67 proliferation index 〈 14% and 〉 14% groups, histological grade (I + II) and grade III invasive ductal carcinomas groups, with lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and recurrence groups (P 〈 0.05) and without groups (P 〈 0.05). However, there was no difference in the mean E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex frequency between age (_〈 50 years vs 〉 50 years), tumor diameter (〈 2 cm vs 〉 2 cm) (P 〉 0.05). Conclusion: In breast cancer, the expressions of E-cadherin, β-catenin and E-cadherin-catenins complex are abnormally decreased and are correlated with pathology grade, differentiation disturbance and metastasis. E- cadherin and β-catenin may be as the predictors for prognosis. Combined detection may improve accuracy and sensitivity of predicting metastasis and prognosis of breast Cancer. 相似文献

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignant tumors in North China. We have
identified that Wnt2/β-catenin pathway is activated in ESCC cells and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and siRNA against β-catenin
not only inhibit the expressions of β-catenin and its major downstream effectors including c-myc and cyclin D1 but induce
cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the relationship between pathological parameters
including invasion depth and lymph node metastasis and the expressions of β-catenin, c-myc, and cyclin D1 in order to evaluate
their values of prognosis in patients with ESCC. The expressions of β-catenin, c-myc, and cyclin D1 were detected immunohistochemically
in the resected cancer tissues from 40 patients with ESCC. The β-catenin expression was reduced in 22 (55.0%) patients, which
was closely correlated with invasion depth (P = 0.023) and lymph node metastasis (P = 0.003). There was the positive c-myc expression in 21 (52.5%), which was significantly correlated with invasion depth (P = 0.009) and lymph node metastasis (P = 0.001). Furthermore, the results of survival rates analyzed by Kaplan–Meier curve revealed that patients with the reduced
expression of β-catenin had a poorer prognosis than those with the preserved expression (P = 0.031), and patients with the positive expression of c-myc also had a significantly poorer prognosis than those with the
negative expression (P = 0.008). These findings demonstrate that β-catenin pathway plays a crucial role in the progression of ESCC, suggesting that
both β-catenin and c-myc may be used as markers for predicting the prognosis of patients with ESCC. 相似文献
