Aberrant activation of Wnt pathway is linked to dysregulation of several genes. DACT1 and DACT2 are members of the DACT family that participate in antagonizing of the Wnt signaling cascade. Thus in this study, we assessed the mRNA levels of DACT1 , DACT2 , and CYCLIN D1 in 70 pairs of CRC tissues compared to the adjacent tissues. Determination of the mRNA levels of DACT1 , DACT2 , and CYCLIN D1 was done by Quantitative Real-Time PCR (qRT-PCR). The correlation between DACT1 , DACT2 , and CYCLIN D1 genes was also examined. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was plotted to assess the diagnostic power. The association between histopathological parameters and the DACT1 , DACT2 , and CYCLIN D1 genes was investigated. The expression levels of DACT1 and CYCLIN D1 were remarkably higher in CRC tissues compared to the adjacent tissues ( p < 0.0001). However, the expression of DACT2 was decreased ( p < 0.001). Our results showed a significant correlation between the expression of DACT1 and CYCLIN D1 ( p < 0.0001). DACT1 (AUC = 0.74, p < 0.0001), DACT2 (AUC = 0.69, p < 0.0003), and CYCLIN D1 (AUC = 0.75, p < 0.0001) had good effectiveness in separation between CRC samples and adjacent tissues. We found a significant association between DACT1 expression with tumor site ( p < 0.01). Also, a significant association was detected between DACT2 and CYCLIN D1 with tumor stage ( p < 0.005 and p < 0.038, respectively). The findings suggested that DACT1 could function as an oncogene, whereas DACT2 was downregulated and can be considered as a tumor suppressor in CRC. |
