The expression and clinical prognostic value of protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit beta in pancreatic cancer.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer (PAAD) is a common malignancy with a poor survival rate. The identification of novel biomarkers could improve clinical outcomes for patients with PAAD. Here we evaluated the expression and clinical significance of PPP1CB in PAAD. PPP1CB expression was higher in PAAD tissue than in matched paracancerous tissue (P < 0.05). We predicted a network of regulatory targets and protein interaction partners of PPP1CB, and identified a PPI network consisting of 39 node genes. The expression of 33 node genes was higher in PAAD tissue than in matching paracancerous tissue. High expression of the node genes ACTN4, ANLN, CLTB, IQGAP1, SPTAN1, and TMOD3 was associated with improved overall survival (P < 0.05). SiRNA knockdown of PPP1CB<
