Aberrant expression of zinc-finger proteins has been extensively reported to contribute to malignant progression in a variety of cancers. However, clinical significance and biological roles of ZNF280A in the field of cancer are poorly known. In this study, the expression of ZNF280A was detected in clinical colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues. Functional experiments in vitro and animal experiment in vivo were performed to measure the effect of ZNF280A on the proliferation and tumorigenesis in CRC cells. Western blot and luciferase assays were used to identify the underlying pathway mediating the biological roles of ZNF280A in CRC. Here we report that ZNF280A was upregulated in CRC tissues and cells and a high expression of ZNF280A correlated with tumor, lymph node, and metastasis (TNM) classifications, clinical stage, and predicted poor prognosis and disease progression in CRC patients. Moreover, silencing ZNF280A repressed proliferation and induced G0 and/or G1 arrest in vitro, and it inhibited tumorigenesis of CRC cells in vivo. Our results further demonstrate that silencing ZNF280A inhibited the proliferation of CRC cells by activating Hippo signaling. Therefore, our results uncover a novel mechanistic understanding of ZNF280A-mediated tumor progression in CRC, and meanwhile they provide a novel prognostic factor in CRC patients and a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of CRC.

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
