Identification and validation of circHIPK3 is upregulated in colorectal cancer and characterization of its role in promoting carcinogenesis

ABSTRACT: In order to confirm that circHIPK3 in colorectal cancerand characterization of its role in carcinogenesis, verified the expression level of circHIPK3 in additon 18 samples, and further collected 30 health controls and 30 colorectal cancer patients for exosome detection. The present study identified circHIPK3 is higher expression in CRC tissues and exosome of CRC patients.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a genetically heterogeneous disease with several distinct morphological growth patterns. This study was aimed to investigate genes differentially expressed between ulcerative and polypoid colorectal CRC. cDNA microarray was first employed to compare the gene expression profiling of ulcerative and polypoid CRC with paired normal mucosa. Potential candidates identified by data filtering were further validated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot and immunohistochemistry. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression was investigated using methylation-specific PCR (MSP). cDNA microarray identified 11 up-regulated and 14 down-regulated genes differentially expressed in both types of tumor compared to matched normal mucosa. Among them, S100P was the only upregulated gene preferentially associated with polypoid CRC (p = 0.032), whereas no genes demonstrated significantly differential association with ulcerative CRC. S100P protein and mRNA expression level of polypoid CRC was significantly higher than that of ulcerative CRC (p < 0.05, respectively). Immunoreactivity of S100P protein was localized predominantly in the nuclei and to a less extent in the cytoplasm. Overexpression of S100P occurred early in the adenoma stage. 80% (24/30) and 20% (6/30) polypoid CRC showed diffusely strong and moderate overexpression, respectively. In contrast, S100P was diffusely and strongly expressed in 15% (6/40) ulcerative CRC, with 52.5% (21/40) and 32.5% (13/40) tumors having moderate and weak overexpression, respectively. S100P overexpression was preferentially associated with polypoid CRC (p < 0.001). The relative methylation level determined by MSP was not statistically different between polypoid and ulcerative CRC (43.36% vs. 49.10%, p = 0.168), indicating that promoter hypomethylation was directly related to upregulation of S100P mRNA. The gene expression profiling of ulcerative and polypoid CRC with paired normal mucosa were compared. Dye swapping experiments with ulcerative CRC vs normal mucosa or polypoid CRC vs normal mucosa were performed and we averaged the log ratios of the duplicated spots on each slide.
