GATA2 rs2335052 Polymorphism Predicts the Survival of Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Abstract: BackgroundGATA binding protein 2 (GATA2) is a transcription factor that has essential roles in hematologic malignancies and progression of various solid tumors. Our previous studies suggested that high GATA2 expression is associated with recurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the influence of GATA2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the survival of CRC remains unknown.MethodsWe genotyped GATA2 SNP rs2335052 using Sanger sequencing after PCR amplification, and determined GATA2 expression by immu… Show more

“…Although it was not a pathogenic variant and does not affect the zinc nger regions, the rs2335052 is located in a coding and regulatory region and may contribute to the GATA2 protein expression. This polymorphism has been previously associated with worse prognosis in a colon cancer study (12). It is unknown if the presence of this SNP may have contributed to the poor outcome of the cases.…”

“…The gene is located on chromosome 3q21.3. The GATA2 gene has been associated with a variety of diseases, including coronary heart disease [ 8 , 9 ], Parkinson's disease [ 10 ], and lung [ 11 ], colon [ 12 ], and prostate cancers [ 13 ]. As a transcription factor, GATA2 plays an important role in the regulation of androgen receptor (AR) signaling [ 14 ].…”

“…Increasing evidence has shown that GATA2 expression is correlated with hematologic pathophysiologies and the proliferation and progression of solid tumors [40]. Upregulated GATA2 expression has been implicated in several tumour types, such as breast cancer [41], colorectal cancer [42] and liver cancer [43]. Moreover, recent studies con rmed that GATA2 overexpression in prostate cancer increases cellular motility and invasiveness, proliferation, tumorigenicity, and resistance to standard therapies [40].…”
