Abstract EN
The protein 14-3-3σ is involved in numerous cellular processes through its ability to bind phosphorylated serine/threonine residues.
It is a key regulator of the cell cycle involving in G2 arrest by p53.
Deregulation of 14-3-3σ expression has been associated with a large variety of human cancers.
However, its physiological function and therapeutic significance have rarely been investigated in cholangiocarcinoma.
Using immunohistochemistry (IHC), we evaluated 14-3-3σ expression in 65 human extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas.
As a result, we found that 14-3-3σ is expressed in the tissue of 56 patients (86.2%), and its expression is positively correlated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and tumor stage.
We also explored the significance of 14-3-3σ and found that 14-3-3σ exerts cell type-dependent effects on cell proliferation through PI3K/Akt signaling in both in vitro and in vivo xenograft models.
These results suggest that 14-3-3σ assumes a constitutive role in tumorigenesis rather than acting as a cell cycle regulator in cholangiocarcinoma, which makes 14-3-3σ a new potential target for therapeutic intervention.
