High expression of CDCA7 predicts tumor progression and poor prognosis in human colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most fatal types of cancer worldwide. This study aimed to determine the predictive and prognostic values of cell division cycle associated protein 7 (CDCA7) in CRC. Firstly, the relationship between CDCA7 and CRC was assessed through bioinformatics analysis. Subsequently, CDCA7 expression levels were detected in various CRC cell lines, as well as 15 fresh human CRC tissues and their paired adjacent normal colorectal tissues using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blotting. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining was used to determine the levels of CDCA7 in 104 CRC tissues and their paired adjacent normal colorectal tissues. The present study revealed that CDCA7 expression was upregulated in CRC tissues and cell lines. The positive e
