    ANXA1 and Yap1 are involved in many of the same biological processes (BP) and play an important role in LN metastasis of HSCC. ( A ) BP GO terms of ANXA1; ( B ) KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. ( C ) Some of the BP GO of Yap1; ( D ) PPI network of genes involved in the cancer biological processes with both ANXA1 and Yap1.

    Techniques Used:

    Down-regulation of ANXA1 decreases Yap1 protein levels. ( A and B ) The effects of ANXA1 silencing on Yap1 mRNA and protein levels were quantified by qRT-PCR and Western blotting; ( C ) mRNA expression levels of ANXA1 in HSCC tissues (10 samples from patients with LN metastasis,10 samples from patients without LN metastasis); ( D ) Yap1 protein expression was detected by Western blotting in HSCC patients (left) and quantitated relative to GAPDH (6 samples from patients with LN metastasis patients, 6 samples from patients without LN metastasis); ( E ) Pearson correlation analysis of ANXA1 and Yap1 expression levels. The expression of ANXA1 mRNA is used as the X-axis after logarithmic transformation. Similarly, Yap1 is represented on the Y-axis.

Fluorescence micrograph (100 ×); ( B ) qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of ANXA1 and Yap1. GAPDH was used as reference; ( C ) The expression of ANXA1 and Yap1 protein levels were detected by WB. GAPDH was used as internal control; ( D ) CCK8 staining assay was used to detect the cell proliferation activity for 4 days.; ( E ) Colony formation assay was used to detect the cell proliferation; ( F ) Transwell assay was used to determine the migration and invasion abilities of FaDu cells (200 × magnification; image acquired after 24 h); ( G and H ). Three days after transfection of Yap1, the apoptosis rate ( G ) and cell cycle status ( H ) of FaDu cells were assessed by FCM. Data are presented as mean ± SD of triplicates.

    Figure 1: Yes-associated protein 1 <t>(YAP1)</t> and P62 protein expressions in gastric cancer (GC) specimens and paired non-tumor gastric mucosa, and correlation with the prognosis of patients with GC. YAP1 and P62 protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry (magnification: ×400). Compared with normal gastric mucosa (A), YAP1 expression was significantly up-regulated in moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma (B), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (C), and signet ring cell cancer (D). Accordingly, compared with normal gastric mucosa (E), P62 expression was significantly up-regulated in moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma (F), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (G), and signet ring cell cancer (H). Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to determine the cumulative survival rate of patients with GC based on YAP1 and P62 protein expression, and showed that overall survival for patients with YAP1 high-expression was significantly worse than for those with low expression (P < 0.001) (I). Overall survival for patients with P62 high-expression was significantly worse than for those in the P62 low-expression group (P = 0.009) (J). Overall survival for patients with YAP1highP62high indicated the worst prognosis, compare with other three groups (P = 0.005 vs. YAP1highP62low; P < 0.001 vs. YAP1low P62high; P < 0.001 vs. YAP1lowP62low) (K).

    Model of Wnt5A involvement in EMT and mesothelial activation and clearance. Wnt5A derived from ovarian cancer cells through cytoskeletal rearrangement could directly or indirectly cause YAP1 phosphorylation, which translocates into the nucleus and induces TGFβ1, integrin αv, Wnt5A, and other EMT markers in this drawing. Integrin αv, in turn, may activate extracellular latent-TGFβ1 and play a pivotal role in the EMT process. In addition, YAP1 may cause retention of Smad2/3 in the nucleus, thereby prolonging their biological activity.

    Figure 1: Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) and P62 protein expressions in gastric cancer (GC) specimens and paired non-tumor gastric mucosa, and correlation with the prognosis of patients with GC. YAP1 and P62 protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry (magnification: ×400). Compared with normal gastric mucosa (A), YAP1 expression was significantly up-regulated in moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma (B), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (C), and signet ring cell cancer (D). Accordingly, compared with normal gastric mucosa (E), P62 expression was significantly up-regulated in moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma (F), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (G), and signet ring cell cancer (H). Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to determine the cumulative survival rate of patients with GC based on YAP1 and P62 protein expression, and showed that overall survival for patients with YAP1 high-expression was significantly worse than for those with low expression (P < 0.001) (I). Overall survival for patients with P62 high-expression was significantly worse than for those in the P62 low-expression group (P = 0.009) (J). Overall survival for patients with YAP1highP62high indicated the worst prognosis, compare with other three groups (P = 0.005 vs. YAP1highP62low; P < 0.001 vs. YAP1low P62high; P < 0.001 vs. YAP1lowP62low) (K).
