Expression of LMO4 and outcome in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Abstract: Identification of a biomarker of prognosis and response to therapy that can be assessed preoperatively would significantly improve overall outcomes for patients with pancreatic cancer. In this study, patients whose tumours exhibited high LMO4 expression had a significant survival advantage following operative resection, whereas the survival of those patients whose tumours had low or no LMO4 expression was not significantly different when resection was compared with operative biopsy alone.

“…Several other genes (SVEP1, COL8A1, LTBP2, SLO, SERPINF1, PDGFD, BMP4, LMO4, SFRP2 and SLC26A2), found to be downregulated in high-grade meningiomas in this study, have been previously reported with reduced expression in high-grade meningiomas (13). The inhibition of expression of some of these genes has been shown to be involved in tumorigenesis; this has been demonstrated for SLO in osteosarcoma (44), for SERPINF1 in breast cancer (45) and non-small cell lung cancer (46) and for LMO4 in several tumour types, including breast, prostate and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (47). Furthermore, the frequent presence of ADAMTSL3 mutations has been reported in colorectal cancer (48) and decreased ADAMTSL3 mRNA expression, as observed in colorectal malignancy (48), may contribute to the progression of meningiomas.…”

“…The loss of NDRG2 expres sion was significantly associated with hypermethylation of the NDRG2 promoter. 63 and is known to function in mesenchymal cell-epithelial cell interactions. The authors of the meningioma study sug gest that LMO4 modulates TGF-b signaling through its interaction with receptoractivated SMADs, supporting the finding of the downregulation of the TGF-b pathway in recurrent meningiomas.…”
