SOX9 expression and its methylation status in gastric cancer

Abstract: SOX9 is a member of the SOX [Sry-related high-mobility group (HMG) box] family and is required for the development and differentiation of multiple cell lineages. To clarify the significance of SOX9 in gastric carcinoma (GC), immunohistochemical expression of SOX9 and the CpG island methylation status of SOX9 were evaluated and compared with clinicopathological factors including overall survival. SOX9 expression was immunohistochemically evaluated in 382 GC tumors and the methylation status was examined in 121 … Show more

“…Basal expression patterns of SOX9 were similar in the corpus and pylorus, consistent with that of a Japanese study [12,13]. SOX9 overexpression was detected in 64 (34.6 %) of 185 gastric cancers (Fig.…”

“…In colon cancer [20,21] and breast cancer [22], SOX9 overexpression was correlated with cancer progression and a poor overall prognosis. In contrast, it has been reported that SOX9 is related to the development of gastric cancer, but it decreases through progression of gastric cancer [13]. Radulescu et al [23] have recently reported that the altered Wnt/b-catenin signaling pathway in the stomach epithelium rapidly generates an initiating step in gastric tumorigenesis.…”

“…SOX9 belongs to the SOX (SRY (sex-determining region Y) box) gene superfamily, and is a key regulator of developmental processes, including male sex determination, chondrogenesis, neurogenesis, and neural crest development [4]. Additionally, SOX9 is a transcription factor and a downstream target gene of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway [5,6], which is closely related to the emergence and development of tumor [7,8], and regulation of intestinal epithelial homeostasis [5,6].…”
