RUNX3 promoter methylation was reversed and its expression restored in SW48 and HCT15 colon cancer cells after treatment with the demethylating agent 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, indicating that loss of expression is caused by epigenetic inactivation in colon carcinogenesis.

Because epigenetic silencing is known to affect many major tumor suppressor genes in cancer cells, it is not clear whether RUNX3 is primarily responsible for the induction of carcinogenesis in these cases, except for the gastric cancer cases that we reported previously.

This study was conducted to determine whether alteration of RUNX3 gene expression could be detected in the normal-looking gastric remnant mucosa, and to ascertain any difference in the potential of gastric carcinogenesis between the anastomotic site and other areas in the remnant stomach after distal gastrectomy for peptic ulcer (RB group) or gastric cancer (RM group), by analysing RUNX3 expression with special reference to topography.

First, we examined mRNA expression of these three RUNX genes in the gastric mucosa, and, finding only RUNX2 was not expressed there, we further investigated RUNX1 and RUNX3 expression in three regions including the pit, isthmus/neck, and gland regions of the human normal stomach and whether RUNX1 is involved in gastric carcinogenesis.
