Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is prevalent in southeastern Asia, particularly southern China, Singapore and Taiwan. The aim of this study was to identify the pivotal genes that may be altered during NPC progression. Using cDNA microarray analysis, we compared the expression of 18 genes between NPC and normal nasomucosal cells. Q-RT-PCR analysis found the expression of IBFBP-6 in NPC cell lines and immunolocalization of IGFBP-6 in NPC to be very weak. We conclude that IGFBP-6 can regulate the progression of NPC by regulating the expression of EGR-1. These results suggest that IGFBP-6 could be used as a new target in NPC therapy.…mehr
