Expression and clinical role of PRDX6 in lung adenocarcinoma.

To explore the levels of expression and clinical role of peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) in lung adenocarcinoma. This retrospective study used a series of bioinformatics methods to detect the levels of expression of and mutations in the PRDX6 gene in a range of cancers and lung adenocarcinoma. Immunohistochemistry was used to verify the levels of expression of PRDX6 protein in samples of lung adenocarcinoma compared with normal adjacent tissue. The effect of PRDX6 gene knockdown on the in vitro proliferation of a lung adenocarcinoma cell line was measured. Bioinformatics methods were used to determine the diagnostic value and impact on survival of the PRDX6 gene in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The results showed that the PRDX6 gene was highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma and there were five mutations at different sites on the gene. PRDX6 promoted the proliferation of the lung adenocarcinoma cell line. The survival duration of lung adenocarcinoma patients with high levels of PRDX6 gene expression was significantly shorter than that of patients with low PRDX6 gene expression. PRDX6 is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma and higher levels of expression of the PRDX6 gene were associated with a poorer prognosis.
