Expression of 6-phosphofructokinase-2 in colorectal cancer and its clinical significance
To investigate the expression level of 6-phosphofructokinase-2 (PFKFB) in human colorectal cancer and explore its clinical significance.
Methods
2
Tissue microarray combined with immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression levels of PFKFB1
PFKFB2
PFKFB3
PFKFB4 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1(HIF1-α) in 90 colorectal cancer tissue samples and 90 paired adjacent tissue samples.
Results
2
High expression levels of PFKFB1
PFKFB2
PFKFB3
PFKFB4 and HIF1-α were detected in 57
59
59
51 and 60 of the colorectal cancer tissues
respectively
and their expression levels were significantly higher than in the paired adjacent tissues (
P
<
0.05). The expression level of PFKFB3 in the colorectal cancer tissue was closely correlated with the tumor size
clinical stage
lymph node metastasis and prognosis (
P
<
0.05). The patients with a high PFKFB3 expression level had poorer prognosis than those with a low PFKFB3 expression (
P
<
0.01). A high expression of PFKFB3 was
associated with a poor prognosis in the patients in an advanced stage (
P
<
0.01) but not in those in an early stage (
P
>
0.05). The expression level of PFKFB3 was positively correlated with HIF-1α (
r
=0.627
P
<
0.01). The expression levels of PFKFB1
PFKFB2 and PFKFB4 showed no obvious correlations with the tumor size
clinical stage
lymph node metastasis
or prognosis of the patients (
P
>
0.05).
Conclusion
2
The PFKFB family is highly expressed in colorectal cancers. A high expression of PFKFB3
which is positively correlated with HIF-1α expression
is associated with a poor prognosis of the patients
suggesting the potential role of PFKFB3 in tumorigenesis and progression of colorectal cancer.
