Quality Statement:
Neuropeptide-associated fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a homodimeric integral membrane gelatinase belonging to the serine protease family. It is selectively expressed in reactive stromal fibroblasts of epithelial cancers, granulation tissue of healing wounds, and malignant cells of bone and soft tissue sarcomas. This protein is thought to be involved in the control of fibroblast growth or epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during development, tissue repair, and epithelial carcinogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Neuropeptide-associated fibroblast activation protein (FAP) may be an important risk factor for neurovascular metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma. Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database showed that FAP mRNA was highly expressed in most human tumor tissues. The HPA database then verified that FAP was highly expressed in tumor tissues following protein translation. Survival analysis then showed that the level of FAP expression significantly affected the overall survival (OS), progress free interval (PFI), and disease specific survival (DSS) of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
