Sialylated IgG-activated integrin β4-Src-Erk axis stabilizes c-Myc in a p300 lysine acetyltransferase-dependent manner to promote colorectal cancer liver metastasis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Liver metastasis is a leading cause of colorectal cancer mortality. Therefore, the underlying mechanism and potential therapeutic target of colorectal cancer liver metastasis urge to be found. Mounting evidence indicates that cancer-derived sialylated IgG promotes tumor formation and progression. However, the role of sialylated IgG in colorectal cancer liver metastasis remains undefined.

Materials and methods

Analysis of sialylated IgG in paired tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues from 65 colorectal cancer patients was performed using immunohistochemical staining. Functional assays of sialylated IgG were explored in vitro and in vivo. The downstream target of sialylated IgG was investigated by performing gene-set enrichment analysis, ubiquitination assay, cy
