Association of expression of MRP1, BCRP, LRP and ERCC1 with outcome of patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
BRCA1 (B), ERCC1 (E), RRM1 (R) and TYMS (T) mRNA expression has been extensively studied with respect to NSCLC patient outcome upon various chemotherapy agents.
Collectively, these data suggest that there is a synergistic relationship between PARP inhibition and low ERCC1 expression in NSCLC that could be exploited for novel therapeutic approaches in lung cancer therapy based on tumor ERCC1 expression.
Combinatorial sub-group analysis of the 3 markers further suggested that PARP1 tumor positivity might constitute a molecular context with high theranostic interest of ERCC1 and MSH2 in NSCLC.
Current evidence strongly indicated the prospect of ERCC1C118T and C8092A as predictive biomarkers for platinum-based chemotherapy in Asian NSCLC patients.
Evaluating the Prognostic Value of ERCC1 and Thymidylate Synthase Expression and the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation Status in Adenocarcinoma Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.
Expression of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 and class III beta-tubulin predict survival after chemotherapy for completely resected non-small cell lung cancer.
Expression of ERCC1 and class IIIbeta tubulin for predicting effect of carboplatin/paclitaxel in patients with advanced inoperable non-small cell lung cancer.
Expression of constitutively active MKK6 (MKK6E) or HA-p38 MAPK vectors significantly rescued the decreased p38 MAPK activity, and restored ERCC1 protein levels and cell survival in resveratrol and pemetrexed cotreated NSCLC cells.
FDG-PET SUVmax was calculated in chemotherapy naïve patients with NSCLC (n=62) and immunohistochemical analysis was performed for EGFR, p53 or ERCC1 on the intraoperative NSCLC tissues.
Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded bronchoscopic/fine needle aspiration biopsies obtained from 70 patients with advanced NSCLC were retrospectively collected to investigate the expression level of ERCC1, RRM1 and EGFR by real-time PCR.
Further biological evaluation indicated that OLO-2 significantly reduced Trx and excision repair cross-complementary1 (ERCC1) protein expression and significantly inhibited the proliferation of drug-sensitive (A549) and multidrug-resistant (A549/CDDP) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, but had no effect on non-tumor lung epithelial-like cells.
Furthermore, the expression level of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 mRNA in PPC specimens was similar to that reported in NSCLC, while the level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression was higher as compared to that reported for colorectal cancer.
High expression levels of excision repair cross-complementary 1 (ERCC1) in cancers have been positively associated with the DNA repair capacity and a poor prognosis in NSCLC patients treated with platinum-containing chemotherapy.
