Overexpression of AKIP1 promotes angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract: A-kinase-interacting protein 1 (AKIP1) is found to be overexpressed in breast and prostate cancers, suggesting that AKIP1 might act as a potent oncogenic protein. However, the clinical significance and biological role of AKIP1 in cancer progression remain largely unknown. Herein, we report that AKIP1 is markedly overexpressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell lines and clinical ESCC samples. AKIP1 expression significantly correlates with ESCC progression and patients' shorter survival time. Fur… Show more

“…A‐kinase‐interacting protein 1, is a nuclear protein whose transcripts are differentially expressed in different cells and tissues, and it is initially found highly expressed in the cell lines of breast cancer and prostate cancer . Despite the biochemical or biological functions of AKIP1 is not well illuminated, the influence of AKIP1 on cancer cells have been illuminated by several studies . For example, a study reveals that AKIP1 transcriptionally upregulates vascular endothelial growth factor‐C (VEGF‐C) by cooperating with several transcriptional factors such as specificity protein 1 (Sp1), activator protein 2 (AP2), and NF‐kB, thereby enhances angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma .…”
