Abstract
RACK1 is a crucial scaffold and anchoring protein, which plays a vital role in multiple signaling pathways of tumorigenesis. The aim of the present study was to identify the correlation between expressions of RACK1 and malignant degrees in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) patients. All together 157 CRC patients were enrolled, and their clinical data were analyzed. Expressions of RACK1 in CRC and pericarcinous tissues in these patients were determined by RT-PCR, Western-blot, and immunohistochemistry, respectively. The correlation between RACK1 expressions and histological grades, as well as lymph node metastasis was evaluated. Results showed that the expressions of RACK1 were positively correlated with differentiation level and lymph node metastasis in CRC patients.Entities:
