EXOSC5 as a Novel Prognostic Marker Promotes Proliferation of Colorectal Cancer via Activating the ERK and AKT Pathways.

ABSTRACT: Background and Objective: Exosome component 5 (EXOSC5) is a novel cancer-related gene that is aberrantly expressed in various malignances. However, the molecular mechanism and biological role of EXOSC5 have not been explored in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we investigated the functions and mechanisms by which EXOSC5 promotes the progression of CRC. Methods: EXOSC5 expressions in CRC cell lines and paired CRC and adjacent normal tissues were measured via quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC). In vitro experiments including colony formation, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), and flow cytometry and in vivo tumorigenesis assay were performed to explore the effects of EXOSC5 on growth of CRC. The impacts of EXOSC5 on
