Bif-1 protein is a member of the endophilin B family that plays a critical role in apoptosis, autophagy and mitochondrial morphology. Loss of Bif-1 suppresses programmed cell death and promotes tumorigenesis. The connection of Bif-1 to colorectal cancer remains to be evaluated. To determine Bif-1 expression in human colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC), we performed immunohistochemistry using stage oriented cancer tissue microarrays containing 102 CRC of different stage, and 38 samples of normal colorectal mucosa (NR). Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded core sections on the tissue array were immunostained using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase method and the anti-Bif-1 murine monoclonal antibody. Bif-1 staining was scored by two independent observers. To examine Bif-1 mRNA levels, we performed DNA microarray analysis of 205 CRC and 10 NR samples. Bif-1 expression was negative in 22.5% (23/102) of CRC. Moderate to strong Bif-1 staining was identified in 36.3% (37/102) of the tumors, and weak stain was seen in 41.2% (42/102) of them. Twenty-six of 38 (68.4%) NR samples exhibited moderate to strong Bif-1 immunoreactivity, and none of them was negative. In 12 cases (31.6%) NR showed weak Bif-1 stain. The mean (median) scores for CRCs and NR differed significantly [3.2 (3.0) and 5.2 (6.0) respectively, p=0.0003], and the percent of cases with negative expression also differed significantly between NR and CRC (p=0.002). Decreased Bif-1 expression in CRCs was confirmed at mRNA level by microarray analysis. We report the down regulation of Bif-1 during the transition from NR to CRC, a novel finding in agreement with the tumor suppressor function of Bif-1. Using gene expression profiling and immunohistochemistry we demonstrated the down regulation of Bif-1during the transition from normal colonic mucosa to adenocarcinoma.
