Abstract

In the Western world, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer with poor prognosis. To identify the proteins and to elucidate the possible mechanisms involved in colorectal carcinogenesis, 2-DE coupled with MS/MS analysis were employed to compare the global protein profile between CRC and individual matched normal tissues from 8 CRC patients. Of 36 proteins identified, carbonic anhydrase II (CA II) was one of most significantly altered and its downregulation in CRC tissues was verified by RT-PCR, western blotting and immunohistochemistry methods, suggesting that CA II may serve as a potential biomarker for CRC diagnosis. To investigate the function and mechanisms of CA II in CRC, a stable SW480 colorectal cancer cell line overexpressing CA II was established. It was shown that overexpression of CA II remarkably suppressed tumor cell growth both in vitro and in vivo, which was in part interpreted by cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 and G2 phase. Further mechanism analysis revealed that the sensitivity of colorectal cancer cells to chemotherapy drugs could be increased by CA II overexpression. Taken together, these data suggest that CA II may be a potential biomarker for early diagnosis of CRC and the results may contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanism of CRC and colorectal cancer treatment.
