dc.description.abstractPhosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A), located on cytoband 6q27, acts as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor in glioblastoma, where its loss drives aggressive tumor behavior and is associated with a proneural-to-mesenchymal (PN-MES) shift. Lever-aging bioinformatic analyses of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) pan-cancer dataset, we identified gastrointestinal carcinomas, specifically stomach adenocarcinoma and colon adenocarcinoma, as cancers where 6q27/PDE10A loss is prognostic. In both stomach adenocarcinoma and colon adenocarcinoma, PDE10A loss was associated with reduced overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Additionally, PDE10A loss correlated with increased lymphatic invasion and higher AJCC pathologic nodal stage in colon adenocarcinoma. In an independent institutional cohort, immunohistochemical analysis showed lower PDE10A expression in metastatic colon adenocarcinomas compared to primary tumors. Furthermore, PDE10A loss and decreased protein expression corresponded with an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype in both cohorts, consistent with the known PN-MES shift observed in glioblastoma. In summary, PDE10A loss in colon adenocarcinoma is associated with decreased OS and PFS, more frequent lymphatic invasion, higher pathologic nodal stage, metastatic disease, and an EMT phenotype.
