FAK, Src and p-Paxillin expression is decreased in liver metastasis of colorectal carcinoma patients

The FAK/Src/Paxillin (PXN) axis has been implicated in malignant transformation, tumor growth, progression and metastasis. The present study aimed to assess FAK/Src/PXN protein expression in both primary and liver metastatic sites of colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC). FAK, Src and p-PXN expression was...

Zusammenfassung:The FAK/Src/Paxillin (PXN) axis has been implicated in malignant transformation, tumor growth, progression and metastasis. The present study aimed to assess FAK/Src/PXN protein expression in both primary and liver metastatic sites of colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC). FAK, Src and p-PXN expression was assessed immunohistochemically on 32 primary CRCs and their corresponding liver metastases, being also analyzed in relation with clinicopathological characteristics and patient survival. FAK, Src and p-PXN expression was significantly decreased in liver metastasis compared to matched paired primary CRCs (p
