Abstract
Background: Sialic acid-bound immunoglobulin lectin 15 (Siglec-15) plays an important role in the development of cancer. However, the association between Siglec-15 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been fully investigated.
Methods: In this present study, a number of bioinformatics analyses were performed to provide an overview and detailed characteristics of Siglec-15. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), western blotting and immunohistochemistry analyses were conducted to characterize the expression of Siglec-15 in CRC. Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox regression analyses were performed to identify the prognostic parameters of CRC.
Results: The results of bioinformatics analyses revealed the expression characteristics and prognostic roles of Siglec-15 in CRC. The data of qCPR, western blotting, and IHC analyses demonstrated that the expression of Siglec-15 in CRC tissues was significantly higher than that in non-cancerous tissues. Moreover, the expression level of Siglec-15 in CRC was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (p=0.001), TNM stage (p=0.001), and overall survival (p=0.026). COX multi-factor analysis indicated that Siglec-15 expression (p=0.023) and tumor differentiation (p=0.003) were independent prognostic factors for CRC.
Conclusions: Collectively, the data suggested that Siglec-15 expression may serve as a novel prognostic factor and Siglec-15 might be identified as an ideal candidate for immunotherapy in CRC treatment.
期刊介绍:
HISTOLOGY AND HISTOPATHOLOGY is a peer-reviewed international journal, the purpose of which is to publish original and review articles in all fields of the microscopical morphology, cell biology and tissue engineering; high quality is the overall consideration. Its format is the standard international size of 21 x 27.7 cm. One volume is published every year (more than 1,300 pages, approximately 90 original works and 40 reviews). Each volume consists of 12 numbers published monthly online. The printed version of the journal includes 4 books every year; each of them compiles 3 numbers previously published online.
