Description
Abstract
Background. Gastric cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide with surgery as the only curative therapy. However, postoperative overall survival of gastric cancer is far from satisfactory although significant improvement has been made in adjuvant therapies. Gastric cancer is characterized as highly heterogeneous and illustrating the molecular mechanisms is invaluable for both identification of novel prognostic biomarkers and development of therapeutic drugs. Here we aimed to investigate the participation of Anoctamin 6 (ANO6) in gastric adenocarcinoma. Methods. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was used to explore the expression pattern of ANO6 in tumor tissues from gastric adenocarcinoma patients (n=108). Clinicopathological data was subjected to Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox multivariate analyses to evaluate prognostic predictors. Overexpression and silencing procedures were performed on gastric cancer cell lines to investigate the functional mechanisms of ANO6 in regulating tumor development. Results. Higher ANO6 expression showed a positive correlation with advanced tumor stage of gastric cancer. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that ANO6 was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival of gastric cancer. An in vitro study demonstrated that ANO6 can promote cell proliferation while silencing ANO6 significantly downregulated cell viability. Conclusion. High ANO6 expression in gastric cancer indicates poor clinical outcomes, and ANO6 may act as a potential target for novel therapy development targeting gastric cancer.
