Overexpression of FXYD-3 is involved in the tumorigenesis and development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Objective. To investigate the association of FXYD-3 expression with clinicopathological variables and PINCH in patients with ESCC. Patients and Methods. Expression of FXYD-3 protein was immunohistochemically examined in normal esophageal mucous ( ) and ESCC ( ). Results. Expression of FXYD-3 in the...

Zusammenfassung:Objective. To investigate the association of FXYD-3 expression with clinicopathological variables and PINCH in patients with ESCC. Patients and Methods. Expression of FXYD-3 protein was immunohistochemically examined in normal esophageal mucous ( ) and ESCC ( ). Results. Expression of FXYD-3 in the cytoplasm markedly increased from normal esophageal epithelial cells to primary ESCC ( ). The expression of FXYD-3 was correlated with TNM stages and depth of tumor invasion. Furthermore, the cases with lymph node metastasis tended to show a higher frequency of positive expression than those without metastasis ( ), and FXYD-3 expression tended to be positively related to the expression of PINCH ( ). Moreover, the cases positive for both proteins had the highest frequency of lymph node metastasis ( ). However, FXYD-3 expression was not correlated with patient’s gender ( ), age ( ), tumor location ( ), size ( ), grade of differentiation ( ), and survival ( ). Conclusion. Overexpression of FXYD-3 in the cytoplasm may play an important role in the tumorigenesis and development in the human ESCC, particularly in combination with PINCH expression.
