AIM: To analyze the expression of retinoic acid receptor responder 3 (RARRES3) protein in paraffin-embedded tissues of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma(CC), and the correlation of RARRES3 production with tumor ***: Expression of RARRES3 in tissues from 2.CC (10 well-, 7 moderately- and 4 poorly-differentiated)and 32.HCC was determined by ***: Among 2. CC tissues, RARRES3 was detected in 8 (80%) of 10 well-differentiated tumors. Only 2.(18.2.)out of 11 tumors with moderate or poor differentiation showed positive RARRES3 expression. RARRES3 expression in well-differentiated CC was significantly higher than that in tumors with moderate or poor differentiation (Fisher exact test, P<0.01). Expression of RARRES3 was not different between early (Ⅰ and Ⅱ) and late (Ⅲ and Ⅳ) stages of *** 30 HCC tissues, 17 (56.7%) weakly expressed RARRES3 in HCC cells, and 2. (83.3%) normal tissues adjacent to HCC expressed the protein. RARRES3 expression was significantly decreased in HCC tissues compared to that in adjacent normal tissues (logistic regression analysis, OR = 0.2., 95% CI (0.11-0.62., P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Expression of RARRES3 is positively correlated to well-differentiated CC, which supports the role of RARRES3 in malignant epithelial differentiation of the tumor. The decrease in RARRES3 expression in tissues of HCC and CC with moderate and poor differentiation suggests that altered RARRES3 expression may play a role in the carcinogenesis of the liver and biliary tract.
