PTP4A3 Independently Predicts Metastasis and Survival in Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma Treated with Radical Nephroureterectomy

Abstract: Results imply that PTP4A3 has a role in the carcinogenesis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma. PTP4A3 over expression independently predicted the metastasis and outcome of upper tract urothelial carcinoma, which was even more important in organ confined disease.

“…Similar to the cancers described above, upregulated PRL‐3 in tumors has been found in cervix , kidney , glioma , bladder , melanoma , lung , and prostate cancers. As for PRL‐1 and ‐2, using microarray analysis, mRNA levels were shown to be upregulated in pancreatic tumor samples compared with those of normal pancreas .…”

“…However, one study indicated that PRL-3 expression has no clinical role in ovarian carcinoma, whereas surprisingly PRL-1 and PRL-2 expression is associated with longer survival [113]. Similar to the cancers described above, upregulated PRL-3 in tumors has been found in cervix [114], kidney [115,116], glioma [117,118], bladder [119], melanoma [120], lung [121], and prostate [122][123][124] cancers. As for PRL-1 and -2, using microarray analysis, mRNA levels were shown to be upregulated in pancreatic tumor samples compared with those of normal pancreas [125].…”

“…While their normal cellular functions are largely unknown, the PRL family has been repeatedly shown to be involved in cancer progression. In particular, PRL-3 is a well-defined biomarker of metastasis in multiple cancer types, including melanoma, colorectal, and ovarian cancers, where PRL-3 expression is significantly higher in metastatic lesions compared to the primary tumor site [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] . In a comprehensive study of 151 patient samples across eleven common human tumors types, PRL-3 protein expression was upregulated in 80.6% of tumor samples compared to matched normal tissue 15 .…”
