Elevated expression of RNA methyltransferase BCDIN3D predicts poor prognosis in breast cancer.

Oncotarget 2016 August 17
BACKGROUND: BCDIN3D is a member of the Bin3 methyl-transferase family that targets the 5' mono-phosphate of nucleic acids. Although BCDIN3D has been shown to increase tumorigenic phenotypes and invasiveness in MDA-MB-231 cells, its the clinical implications in breast cancer remain unclear.

METHODS: We screened for BCDIN3D using tissue microarrays constructed from 250 patients who were histologically confirmed to have invasive ductal breast carcinoma at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center.

RESULTS: The survival analysis by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression showed that BCDIN3D expression level served as a prognostic factor for disease-free survival (P = 0.042). The prognostic value of BCDIN3D was most significant in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients (P = 0.007).

CONCLUSIONS: BCDIN3D might serve as an important prognostic factor for TNBC patients.
