The identification and inhibition of molecular components leading to this migratory and invasive phenotype are thus essential. Accordingly, a genome\u2010wide expression array analysis was performed on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cell lines and a set of 139 genes was identified as differentially expressed in cells with high versus low migratory activity. Reduced expression of the novel tumour suppressor <jats:italic>integrin \u03b17<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>ITGA7<\/jats:italic>) was found in highly motile cells. A significant negative correlation was observed between <jats:italic>ITGA7<\/jats:italic> transcript levels and average displacement of cells. Forced overexpression of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cells with low endogenous <jats:italic>ITGA7<\/jats:italic> expression inhibited cell motility, providing direct evidence for the regulatory role of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cell migration. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cells showed decreased <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> expressions at both transcription and protein levels when compared to non\u2010malignant mesothelial cells. The majority of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cell cultures displayed hypermethylation of the <jats:italic><jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content><\/jats:italic> promoter when compared to mesothelial cultures. A statistically significant negative correlation between <jats:italic><jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content><\/jats:italic> methylation and <jats:italic>ITGA7<\/jats:italic> expression was also observed in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> cells. While normal human pleura samples unambiguously expressed <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content>, a varying level of expression was found in a panel of 200 human <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content> samples. In multivariate analysis, <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> expression was found to be an independent prognostic factor. Although there was no correlation between histological subtypes and <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> expression, importantly, patients with high tumour cell <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content> expression had an increased median overall survival compared to the low\u2010 or no\u2010expression groups (463 versus 278 days). In conclusion, our data suggest that <jats:italic><jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ITGA7<\/jats:styled-content><\/jats:italic> is an epigenetically regulated tumour suppressor gene and a prognostic factor in human <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MPM<\/jats:styled-content>.
