BACKGROUND AND
AIMS
The Tage4 gene
(tumour associated glycoprotein E4) is overexpressed in rat colon
tumours and Min mouse intestinal adenomas. The rat Tage4 protein has
approximately 40% identity with human CD155, a member of the
immunoglobulin superfamily coding for a transmembrane protein capable
of serving as an entry receptor for poliovirus, porcine
pseudorabies virus, and bovine herpesvirus 1. Analysis of the rat
Tage4 gene has revealed structural and functional similarities with the human CD155
gene. We therefore investigated expression of the
CD155 gene in human colorectal carcinomas.
METHODS
Overall CD155
expression was assessed by semiquantitative reverse
transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and
immunohistochemical analysis using tissue specimens from patients with
colorectal adenomas and adenocarcinomas. We also used a qualitative
RT-PCR assay to determine relative expression of different splicing
variants in each sample.
RESULTS
mRNA levels of
CD155 were increased in six of six colorectal cancer tissues compared
with the tumour free colon mucosa. Immunohistochemical analysis
revealed an increased level of CD155 protein in 12 of 12 samples. The
qualitative RT-PCR assay revealed that relative expression of the
different CD155 variant transcripts was similar in the different normal
and cancer samples tested, indicating that this overexpression is not
associated with a particular mRNA variant generated by alternative
splicing of the CD155 gene.
CONCLUSION
We have
shown for the first time that the CD155 gene
is overexpressed in colorectal carcinoma and that this overexpression begins at an early stage in tumorigenesis and continues to late stages.
