Abstract
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A2 (eIF5A2) plays an important role in tumor progression and prognosis evaluation. However, the potential role of eIF5A2 in human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is unknown. In this study, we aim to investigate the association between eIF5A2 expression and PTC clinical outcomes and underlying its Biological function in PTC cells in vitro and in vivo. The expression of eIF5A2 was examined by immunohistochemistry in PTC tissues and its adjacent tissue (n = 39) from 207 PTC patients. Functional analysis of eIF5A2 was performed in PTC cell lines in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that eIF5A2 was overexpressed in PTC tissues compared with the adjacent tissues. Enhanced eIF5A2 expression was significantly correlated with extrathyroidal extension (p = 0.012), lymph node metastasis (p = 0.002), TNM stage (p = 0.006), T classification (p = 0.047) and BRAF V600E mutation (p = 0.036). EIF5A2 inhibition prevented PTC cell growth, invasiveness and migration and induced cell apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, eIF5A2 depletion inhibited tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. The data indicated that eIF5A2 could be employed as a novel prognostic marker and effective therapeutic target for PTC.
