SRPX2 and RAB31 are effective prognostic biomarkers in pancreatic cancer.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: SRPX2 and RAB31 play important roles in tumorigenesis and metastasis; however, their prognostic value in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the potential interactions and effects of SRPX2 and RAB31 on the diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods: The expression of SRPX2 and RAB31 in pancreatic tumor tissues and cells was evaluated through database mining of the Oncomine, Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases, and validated the results through immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot in our clinical database. Protein-protein interactions were explored by immunofluorescence and Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP). Two hundred tissue microarray specimens from patients (79 training and 1
