The results showed that the expression level of STC2 gene in 50 cases of breast cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancer normal breast tissues (P<0.001).
MDA-MB-231 and T47D cell lines were selected and separately introduced with miR-190 inhibitors, activators, and small interfering RNAs with the intent of exploring the regulatory functions that miR-190 has shown while governing STC2 in BC.
The association between IHC expression of STC1 and STC2 in primary breast tumor tissue microarrays and breast cancer recurrence was evaluated within median time to recurrence quintiles.<b>Results:</b> The association between STC1 expression, dichotomized as positive or negative, and recurrence was strongly positive for the final time quintile (6-10 years postdiagnosis) in the ER<sup>+</sup>/TAM<sup>+</sup> group [aOR = 2.70; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.22-5.98].
Constitutive STC2 expression in human breast cancer cell lines resulted in significant impairment of cell growth, migration and cell viability after serum withdrawal.
