Interleukin 13 participates in terminal differentiation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cells
BACKGROUND: In China, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for more than 90% of all esophageal cancer cases. Interleukin 13 (IL-13) was widely reported to play a key role in tumor progression. Our previous study reported that IL-13 was a favorable predictive marker for the overall surv...

description | BACKGROUND: In China, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for more than 90% of all esophageal cancer cases. Interleukin 13 (IL-13) was widely reported to play a key role in tumor progression. Our previous study reported that IL-13 was a favorable predictive marker for the overall survival of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients, but how IL-13 contributes to ESCC progression remains unknown. This study aims to explore the role of IL-13 and its underlying downstream molecular mechanisms in ESCC progression. METHODS: Tissue microarrays including 262 primary ESCC tumor tissues were collected and analyzed. The expression of IL-13 in ESCC tumor tissue was detected with immunohistochemistry staining (IHC). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to qualify the expressions of KRT13, KRT4 and 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) in cultured ESCC cell lines with recombinant IL-13 treatment. RESULTS: IL-13 was expressed in the esophageal epithelium cells and ESCC tumor cells. High IL-13 expression in ESCC tumor cells predicted a good prognosis for patients. Recombinant human IL-13 raised KRT13 and 15-LOX-1 mRNA levels, but lowered KRT4 mRNA level 15-LOX-1 in ESCC cells in vitro. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, our study suggests that IL-13 might improve the prognosis of ESCC by promoting the terminal differentiation of ESCC cells. This may offer potential new therapeutic target for early treatment of ESCC. |
