Methods: the data was extracted from ONCOMINE, Human Protein Atlas and Kaplan Meier-plotter. The expression level of CSF2RA on cancer tissues and normal tissues, the relationship between CSF2RA and overall survival of cancer patients were analyzed, respectively. Results: CSF2RA mRNA was over-expressed on breast cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer and liver cancer, and CSF2RA protein was over-expressed on melanoma. The expression level of CSF2RA was not associated with overall survival of cancer patients significantly. Conclusion: CSF2RA is over-expression on certain cancers and most immune cells, which maybe contributes to activation of immune system. The high expression of CSF2RA protein on melanoma is maybe associated with adverse outcome of application of GM-CSF.展开更多

However, the underlying mechanism of CAA formation and its effects on the development of breast cancer are still unknown. Here, we show that CSF2 is highly expressed in both CAAs and breast cancer cells. CSF2 promotes inflammatory phenotypic changes of adipocytes through the Stat3 signaling pathway, leading to the secretion of multiple cytokines and proteases, particularly C–X–C motif chemokine ligand 3 (CXCL3). Adipocyte-derived CXCL3 binds to its specific receptor CXCR2 on breast cancer cells and activates the FAK pathway, enhancing the mesenchymal phenotype, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. In addition, a combination treatment targeting CSF2 and CXCR2 shows a synergistic inhibitory effect on adipocyte-induced lung metastasis of mouse 4T1 cells in vivo. These findings elucidate a novel mechanism of breast cancer metastasis and provide a potential therapeutic strategy for breast cancer metastasis.展开更多

The functions of M-CSF have been well characterized in mammals. In this study, we have cloned and sequenced the cDNA of M-CSF2 in grass carp. The grass carp M-CSF2 cDNA was 1487 bp in length, containing an open reading frame of 855 bp that encodes 284 amino acids. The deduced protein of grass carp M-CSF2 possessed same domains similar to its mammalian counterparts. Multiple alignments and phylogenetic tree indicate that the grass carp M-CSF2 exhibits close evolutionary relationship with its counterparts in other teleosts. Lastly, the tissue distribution results also showed that the grass carp M-CSF2 transcript was dominantly expressed in head kidney, kidney and spleen in vivo.展开更多
