Prognostic Significance of FKBP14 in Gastric Cancer
INTRODUCTION: Although our understanding on gastric cancer biology is better than a decade ago, its practical effect on screening and diagnosis remains limited. Moreover, there are no markers that can be accurately used in the clinic to diagnose early-stage gastric cancer or monitor the patient’s re...

description | INTRODUCTION: Although our understanding on gastric cancer biology is better than a decade ago, its practical effect on screening and diagnosis remains limited. Moreover, there are no markers that can be accurately used in the clinic to diagnose early-stage gastric cancer or monitor the patient’s response to therapy. Herein, we investigate whether FKBP14 is involved in the progression of gastric cancer. METHODS: The AGS cell line was chosen for over-expression analysis, whereas the SGC-7901 cell line was selected for knock-down analysis. AGS cells were transfected with an FKBP14 overexpression plasmid (AGS-PLV.O-FLAG). The expression pattern of FKBP14 in both cell lines was determined by Western blot and RT-PCR. Cell proliferation was assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8, whereas apoptosis was performed using flow cytometry. The expression of FKBP14 in 70 Chinese patients with gastric cancer was also investigated using tissue microarrays and compared with gastric cancer patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas. RESULTS: FKBP14 was highly expressed in SGC7901 and had a relatively low expression in AGS cells. Upregulation of FKBP14 in AGS cells promoted migration and invasion and inhibits apoptosis. Knock-down of FKBP14 resulted in a suppression in migration and invasion and promoted apoptosis in the SGC-7901 cell line. Effectively, gastric cancer patients had a higher expression of FKBP14, with a lower survival rate (P = 0.028). Patients with a high expression of FKBP14 were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (P =0.016), and an advanced histologic grade (P =0.021). CONCLUSION: FKBP14 is often up-regulated in gastric cancer. Patients with a high expression of FKBP14 are usually associated with worse overall survival. FKBP14 is an oncogene in gastric cancer, and is a potential biomarker for GC diagnosis, invasion, and prognosis. |
