Loss of Tenascin-X expression during tumor progression: A new pan-cancer marker
Cancer is a systemic disease involving multiple components produced from both tumor cells themselves and surrounding stromal cells. The pro- or anti-tumoral role of the stroma is still under debate.

description | Cancer is a systemic disease involving multiple components produced from both tumor cells themselves and surrounding stromal cells. The pro- or anti-tumoral role of the stroma is still under debate. Indeed, it has long been considered the main physical barrier to the diffusion of chemotherapy by its dense and fibrous nature and its poor vascularization. However, in murine models, the depletion of fibroblasts, the main ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM)-producing cells, led to more aggressive tumors even though they were more susceptible to anti-angiogenic and immuno-modulators. Tenascin-C (TNC) is a multifunctional matricellular glycoprotein (i.e. an ECM protein also able to induce signaling pathway) and is considered as a marker of tumor expansion and metastasis. However, the status of other tenascin (TN) family members and particularly Tenascin-X (TNX) has been far less studied during this pathological process and is still controversial. Herein, through (1) in silico analyses of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases and (2) immunohistochemistry staining of Tissue MicroArrays (TMA), we performed a large and extensive study of TNX expression at both mRNA and protein levels (1) in the 6 cancers with the highest incidence and mortality in the world (i.e. lung, breast, colorectal, prostate, stomach and liver) and (2) in the cancers for which sparse data regarding TNX expression already exist in the literature. We thus demonstrated that, in most cancers, TNX expression is significantly downregulated during cancer progression and we also highlighted, when data were available, that high TNXB mRNA expression in cancer is correlated with a good survival prognosis. |
