Figure Lengend Snippet: Correlation between expression level of the stress associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1 (SERP1) and progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients. (A and B) The expression level of SERP1 in T3/4 stage PDAC specimen was significantly higher than in T1/2 stage, while there was no significant difference between SERP1 and N stage. (C) Correlation analysis was performed between expression level of SERP1 and clinical stages. SERP1 was correspondingly increased with the increase of clinical AJCC stage of PDAC. (D) Constituent ratio with high level of SERP1 was drastically different between normal samples and I/II or III/IV stage of PDAC patients.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The correlation between expression level of the stress associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1 (SERP1) and prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients. (A) K-M curve for OS of patients with high (n=89) and low (n=87) SERP1 expression level. Results revealed that high SERP1 expression level was correlated with shorter OS for PDAC patients. (B) SERP1 high expression group (n=61) had shorter DFS than SERP1 low expression group (n=76). (C) The expression of SERP1 in OS-good and poor patients. (D) The expression of SERP1 in DFS-good and poor patients. (E and F) Multivariate Cox regression analyses showed SERP1 expression was an independent factor of patients' overall survival and disease-free survival.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Stress associated endoplasmic reticulum protein 1 (SERP1) is mainly involved in regulating cell apoptosis. (A) Apoptosis gene sets were enriched in tumor group. The curve is the enrichment score of these genes by GSEA. (B) PANC-1 cells were transfected with three SERP1 siRNA. Forty-eight hours after transfection, the expression level of SERP1 was detected by western blotting, and results revealed that the expression level of SERP1 was obviously downregulated in PANC-1 cells transfected with SERP1-siRNA compared to negative control cells. (C and D) Compared to control group, PANC-1 cells transfected with SERP1-siRNA had a higher rate of apoptosis.

(A and B) The Human Protein Atlas database results revealed that the expression level of SRPRB were upregulated in stromal fibroblast compared with tumor tissues. (C) Western blot analysis confirmed that downregulated SERP1 can increase the expression of SRPRB in PANC-1 cells. (D) PANC-1 cells were transfected with SRPRB overexpression plasmid, and western blot analysis found that the expression level of SRPRB was significantly increased in PANC-1 cells. (E and F) Compared to control group, SRPRB overexpression significantly promoted apoptosis of PANC-1 cells.
