In conclusion, ANXA10+ MSI-H colon carcinomas are characterized by serrated pathway features, including proximal location, female predominance, and high frequencies of CIMP-H status and MLH1 methylation.
The ANXA10 protein was expressed in 43.5% (155 cases) of gastric carcinomas; 74.2% (98/132) in the diffuse-type gastric carcinoma (DGC), 73.7% (28/38) in the mixed-type gastric carcinoma, and significantly lower in the intestinal-type gastric carcinoma (IGC) and indeterminate groups, 16.8% (28/167) and 5.3% (1/19), respectively (P<1×10(-8)).
Next, we found that up-regulation of ANXA10 in PC-3 resulted in down-regulation of S100 calcium binding protein A4 (S100A4), which is reportedly correlated with aggressiveness and a worse prognosis for patients with different types of carcinomas.
We showed that ANXA10 mRNA was expressed in adult liver and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but not in multiple adult and fetal tissues, cholangiocarcinoma, and several other common carcinomas.
