Melanoma is a potentially fatal form of skin cancer with great metastatic potential. THOC2 plays a vital role in human biological progression, however, the roles of THOC2 in melanoma tumorigenesis are still unknown. In the present study, our data demonstrated that THOC2 expression was significantly increased in melanoma tissues, and high THOC2 expression was associated with poor overall survival of melanoma patients. THOC2 reduction repressed melanoma cell proliferation and invasion, and induced cell apoptosis in vitro. Microarray data revealed that the cAMP signaling pathway was significantly downregulated in A375 cells transfected with si-THOC2, which was further confirmed by RT-qPCR and bioinformatics analysis. In conclusion, our data indicated that THOC2 might act as an oncogene in melanoma progression through cAMP signaling pathway regulation, which may offer a therapeutic target for melanoma treatment.

Database of known and predicted protein interactions. The interactions include direct (physical) and indirect (functional) associations and are derived from four sources: Genomic Context, High-throughput experiments, (Conserved) Coexpression, and previous knowledge. STRING quantitatively integrates interaction data from these sources for a large number of organisms, and transfers information between these organisms where applicable. The database currently covers 5''214''234 proteins from 1133 organisms. (2013)
