Abstract

The development of biomarkers that accurately and reliably detect colorectal cancer is a promising approach for colorectal cancer screening. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the protein expression of α‑methylacyl‑CoA racemase (P504S/AMACR), tumor protein p53 (p53), B‑cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‑2) and Ki‑67/mindbomb E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (MIB‑1) in a population of Chinese patients with colorectal carcinoma. Colorectal tumors with matched normal tissue margins were collected from 148 surgical patients, and the demographic and clinical characteristics were collected. Immunohistochemical staining and western blot analysis of P504S/AMACR, p53, Bcl‑2 and Ki‑67/MIB‑1 were conducted. Statistical analyses were used to compare protein expression in the colorectal tumors and matched normal tissue margins and to identify any associations between them and various clinicopathological parameters. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan‑Meier method. In the present study, immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis revealed significantly higher expression of all four proteins in colorectal tumors compared with matched normal tissue margins (P<0.001). Spearman's rank correlation analysis revealed that Bcl‑2 expression was negatively correlated with pathological grade and Tumor‑Node‑Metastasis (TNM) stage (‑0.827 and ‑0.388, respectively; P<0.05). Bcl‑2 expression was revealed to be a significant prognostic indicator of colorectal carcinoma [relative risk (95% CI), 0.703 (0.552‑0.895); P<0.05]. The log‑rank test revealed a significant association between low Bcl‑2 expression and reduced overall survival (P=0.039), as well as a significant association between older age (>55 years) and reduced overall survival (P<0.001) in Chinese patients with colorectal carcinoma. In conclusion, low expression of Bcl‑2 is significantly correlated with advanced pathological grade and TNM stage and is a prognostic indicator of reduced overall survival in young Chinese patients with colorectal carcinoma.
