AIM:To investigate the copy number variation of NAC03 gene in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its correlation with tumor progression.METHODS:A total of 142 samples of case-matched CRC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were obtained from patients undergoing bowel resection.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction method was used to investigate the copy number variations of NCOA3 as well as gene expression in the collected tissues.RESULTS:Copy number gains of NCOA3 were detected in 39 CRC samples (27.5%) and were correlated with tumor progression (x2 =6.42,P =0.0112).Moreover,there was a positive correlation between copy number gain and mRNA over-expression of NCOA3 in CRCs (P =0.0023).Expression level of NCOA3 mRNA was also enhanced in the CRC samples with unaltered copy numbers (3.85 ± 1.23 vs 2.71 ± 0.64,P < 0.01).CONCLUSION:Sporadic colorectal cancers exhibit different mechanisms of NCOA3 regulation.
