Gastric adenocarcinoma is a leading cause of cancer mortality. The role of DARPP-32 overexpression in the gastric tumorigenesis cascade remains unclear. The expression of DARPP-32 in the multi-step carcinogenesis cascade was examined using immunohistochemistry analysis on 533 samples. The contribution of DARPP-32 in cellular transformation and molecular signaling was investigated using NIH3T3, AGS, and SNU16 cells. The composite expression score (CES), calculated from immunostaining patterns, increased significantly from normal or gastritis to metaplasia, dysplasia, and adenocarcinoma (p<0.001). In patients with normal stomach or gastritis and tumor samples, there was a 76% and 77% chance respectively (p<0.001) that CES was higher in the tumor. High median CES correlated with well- or moderately-differentiated (p=0.03) gastric adenocarcinomas. NIH3T3 cells transfected with DARPP-32 demonstrated increased levels of phospho-AKT and a five-fold increase in the number of foci as compared to control (p =0.02). DARPP-32 expression in AGS cells led to increased protein levels of phospho-AKT and BCL-2. For validation, the knockdown of endogenous DARPP-32 expression in SNU16 cells using shRNA resulted in decreased levels of phospho-AKT phosphorylation and BCL-2. Our results suggest that DARPP-32 overexpression may participate in transition to intestinal metaplasia and progression to neoplasia. The ability of DARPP-32 to transform NIH3T3 cells and regulate AKT and BCL-2 underscores its possible oncogenic potential.
