Differential expression profile of CXC-receptor-2 ligands as potential biomarkers in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The discovery of early detection markers of pancreatic cancer (PC) disease is highly warranted. We analyzed the expression profile of different CXC-receptor-2 (CXCR2) ligands in PC cases for the potential of biomarker candidates. Analysis of different PDAC microarray datasets with matched normal and pancreatic tumor samples and next-generation sequenced transcriptomics data using an online portal showed significantly high expression of CXCL-1, 3, 5, 6, 8 in the tumors of PC patients. High CXCL5 expression was correlated to poor PC patient survival. Interestingly, mRNA and protein expression analysis of human PC cell lines showed higher CXCL2, 3, and 5 expressions in cell lines derived from metastatic sites than primary tumors. Furthermore, we utilized immunohistochemistry (IHC) to evaluate
