Expression of TIPE family members in human colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: The tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8)-like (TIPE) protein family comprises four members, namely TNFAIP8, TIPE1, TIPE2 and TIPE3, which are involved in multiple processes in cancer. The current study aimed to investigate the expression patterns and potential clinical roles of the TIPE family members in human colorectal cancer (CRC). Paired tumor and adjacent tissue samples were collected from 49 patients with CRC, and the relative mRNA expression levels of the TIPE family members in these samples were evaluated by using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, and the protein levels in five randomly selected pairs of tumor and adjacent tissue samples were detected by western blot analysis. The mRNA expression levels of the TIPE family members were significantly downregulate
