Concomitant CXCR4 and CXCR7 expression predicts poor prognosis in renal cancer.

Abstract:

:CXCR4 is a chemokine receptor implicated in the metastatic process. The CXCR4 ligand, CXCL12, was shown to bind also the CXCR7 receptor, a recently deorphanized chemokine receptor whose signalling pathway and function are still controversial. This study was conducted to determine patients clinic-pathological factors and outcome according to the expressions of CXCR4 and CXCR7 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). CXCR4 and CXCR7 expression was evaluated in 223 RCC patients through immunohistochemistry; moreover CXCR4 and CXCR7 was detected in 49 others consecutive RCC patients trough RT- PCR. CXCR4 expression was low in 42/223 RCC (18.8%), intermediate in 71/223 (31.9%) and high in 110/223 (49.3%). CXCR7 expression was low in 44/223 RCC patients (19.8%), intermediate in 65/223 (29.1%) and high in 114/223 (51.1%). High CXCR4 and high CXCR7 expression predicted shorter disease free survival. In multivariate analysis, high CXCR4 expression (p= 0.0061), high CXCR7 (p= 0.0194) expression and the concomitant high expression of CXCR4 and CXCR7 (p= 0.0235) are independent prognosis factors. Through RT-PCR, CXCR4 was overexpressed in 36/49 and CXCR7 in 33/49 samples correlating with symptoms at diagnosis and lymph nodes status. So we can hypothesize that CXCR4 and CXCR7, singularly evaluated and in combination, are valuable prognostic factors in RCC patients.
