Expression signature of lysosomal-associated transmembrane protein 4B in hepatitis C virus-induced hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract: Together, our results illustrate the LAPTM4B gene as a diagnostic biomarker in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma having documented evidence of chronic hepatitis C virus infection.

“…LAPTM4B (the lysosome-associated protein transmembrane-4b gene) is considered as an oncogene, and its overexpression has been proven to promote the proliferation of various tumor cells, boost invasion and metastasis, resist apoptosis, initiate autophagy, and assist drug resistance. [35][36][37][38] Overexpression of LAPTM4B in breast cancer cells results in resistance to anthracycline, and its knockdown can sensitize the drug response. 39 NGFRAP1 (nerve growth factor receptor-associated protein 1) is an apoptosisrelated gene, and its expression is downregulated in some solid organ malignancies and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.…”

“…LAPTM4B is a newly identified oncogene (NM_018407, Gene ID: 55353) and was first cloned in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in 2000 12 . It is a recently discovered gene that has been mapped to chromosome 8q22.1; it contains seven exons and six introns, spans ~50 kb, and is an essential factor in maintaining cellular homeostasis 13 . LAPTM4B exists as two alleles: LAPTM4B*1 with one 19 bp segment (GenBank accession no.…”

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that LAPTM4B polymorphisms were associated with susceptibility to multiple types of cancer, including lung, breast, gastric, colon, ovarian and primary liver cancer, which suggested that LAPTM4B*2 may be associated with a significantly increased risk of developing these types of cancer 14 . Studies have illustrated that LAPTM4B promotes tumorigenesis by inhibiting apoptosis, up regulating autophagy and rendering resistance to chemotherapy 13 . Also overexpression of LAPTM4B was significantly correlated with poor prognosis in breast cancer, gallbladder cancer, ovarian cancer, HCC, gastric cancer and cervical cancer etc 12 .…”
