Small Proline-Rich Protein 2B Facilitates Gastric Adenocarcinoma Proliferation via MDM2-p53/p21 Signaling Pathway. | LitMetric

Background: The small proline-rich protein 2B (SPRR2B) was firstly reported as a member of the cross-linked envelope protein in keratinocytes. The effect of SPRR2B in gastric adenocarcinoma (GC) remains unclear. This study initially explored the clinical significance of SPRR2B in GC patients as well as its role in tumor progression.

Methods: Immunohistochemistry was performed to characterize the expression of SPRR2B in GC tissues and adjacent tissues. The relationship between SPRR2B expression and clinicopathological features of GC patients was analyzed by Chi-square test. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analyses were utilized to identify the prognostic factors of GC. Overexpression and knockdown assays were conducted to investigate possible signaling pathways downstream of SPRR2B. Flow cytometry assays were performed to evaluate cell cycle and apoptosis. Xenograft experiments were performed to validate tumor-related role of SPRR2B in vivo.

Results: Both mRNA and protein levels of SPRR2B in cancerous tissue were significantly higher than those in non-cancerous tissues. Meanwhile, SPRR2B expression was significantly associated with tumor size and tumor stage. Survival analysis revealed SPRR2B as one of the independent prognosis factors for overall survival of GC patients. Cellular and xenografts data implicated that silencing SPRR2B blocked the cell cycle of GC cells perhaps through MDM2-p53/p21-CDK1 pathway, while overexpressing SPRR2B exhibited opposite effects.

Conclusion: Our data suggest that SPRR2B may serve as a novel prognostic marker in GC, which functions at least partially by MDM2-p53/p21-CDK1 signaling pathway.
