DEAD-box helicase 56 functions as an oncogene promote cell proliferation and invasion in gastric cancer via the FOXO1/p21 Cip1/c-Myc signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: DEAD-box helicase (DDX) family exerts a critical effect on cancer initiation and progression through alternative splicing, transcription and ribosome biogenesis. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that DEAD-box helicase 56 (DDX56) is over-expressed in several cancers, which plays an oncogenic role. Till the present, the impact of DDX56 on gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. We conducted high-throughput sequencing (RNA-seq) to demonstrate aberrant DDX56 levels within 10 GC and matched non-carcinoma tissue samples. DDX56 levels were detected through qRT-PCR, western blotting (WB) and immunochemical staining in GC patients. We conducted gain- and loss-of-function studies to examine DDX56's biological role in GC development. In vitro, we carried out 5‑Ethynyl‑2‑deoxyuridine (EdU), scratch,
