Abstract Cathepsin D (CD) is an aspartyl protease implicated in cancer metastasis. In this study of 331 patients, we show that patients with primary breast carcinomas containing high concentrations of CD have a significantly shorter disease-free interval (chi-square = 4.28, P < 0.05) and overall survival (chi-square = 7.7, P < 0.01) than patients with low concentrations. CD as a prognostic marker for overall survival was equally valuable for women younger (chi-square = 4.39, P < 0.05) and older (chi-square = 3.97, P < 0.05) than 50 years. CD was also a significant prognostic marker for overall survival within the estradiol receptor (ER)-positive subgroup of patients (chi-square = 5.79, P < 0.025), but not in the ER-negative subgroup. Patients with tumors containing high concentrations of CD and low concentrations of ER had shorter disease-free intervals (chi-square = 15.1, P < 0.001) and lower overall survival (chi-square = 20.9, P < 0.001) than patients with high concentrations of ER but low concentrations of CD.

Abstract Aims: we investigated the relationship between long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and breast cancer lung metastasis (BCLM). Methods: We performed lncRNA microarray analyses to establish the lncRNA profile of BCLM. Bioinformatics analyses were carried out to analyzed functional roles of identified lncRNAs. Kaplan-meier analysis was conducted to determine the relation between lncRNA AGPAT4-IT1 and prognosis of breast cancer. Results: We found 317 upregulated and 166 downregulated lncRNAs in BCLM group. We showed AGPAT4-IT1 was positively correlated with its parental gene APGAT4. Furthermore, we suggested AGPAT4-IT1 were highly expressed in higher tumour grade and predicted poorer prognosis. Conclusions: These findings provide evidence for exploring the mechanisms of BCLM and indicate AGPAT4-IT1 is a prospective prognostic marker for breast cancer metastasis.
