Overexpression of MYEOV predicting poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Myeloma Overexpressed (MYEOV) is closely related to cell growth and differentiation in many cancer types. However, the role of this protein-coding gene in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has rarely been investigated. In this study, we demonstrated that MYEOV was higher expressed in tumor tissues compared with adjacent normal pancreas tissues (ANPTs) both in mRNA and protein levels. We also performed bioinformatic analysis and found high MYEOV expression was positively correlated with tumor differentiation (P = 0.004), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.016) and TNM stage (P = 0.001). Moreover, Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional-hazards analyses indicated that high MYEOV expression was significantly associated with poor survival in patients with PDAC and that MYEOV was an independent progn
