The tumorigenic effect of the high expression of ABRACL in glioma and its potential as a therapeutic target.

ABSTRACT: Gliomas are the most common malignant intracranial tumors, with no effective treatments. Better understanding and identification of novel targets are urgently warranted. Actin-binding Rho activating C-terminal like (ABRACL) has been reported as an oncogene in several cancer types. However, the potential roles of ABRACL in the tumorigenesis of malignant glioma remain unknown. We discovered that ABRACL is highly expressed in different sub-types of gliomas in both CGGA and TCGA databases, which was further validated in glioblastoma cell lines and normal human astrocyte lines. RT-qPCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry demonstrated that ABRACL expression in glioma tissues was upregulated along with the increasing WHO grades. Further survival analysis of glioma patients also revealed th
