Upregulation of FAM83D promotes malignant phenotypes of lung adenocarcinoma by regulating cell cycle.

ABSTRACT: The family with sequence similarity 83, member D (FAM83D) gene is upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and ovarian cancer, and its overexpression has been reported to positively correlate with tumor progression. However, the clinical significance and biological function of FAM83D in lung adenocarcinoma has not been investigated. We determined the expression profile and clinical significance of FAM83D using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. Considerable upregulation of FAM83D was observed in LUAD tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, and its overexpression was significantly associated with more advanced clinicopathological characteristics. Importantly, multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that a high level of FAM83D expression was an independent risk factor for worse overall survival in LUAD patients (HR = 1.692, P = 0.006). Inhibition of FAM83D suppressed the proliferation of LUAD cells via G1 phase arrest by downregulating cyclin D1 (CCND1) and cyclin E1 (CCNE1). The oncogenic role of FAM83D was also confirmed in vivo. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that FAM83D might exert its oncogenic activity in LUAD by regulating cell cycle, and that it could serve as a novel biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for LUAD.

Project description:BACKGROUND:This study was designed to investigate the effects of a novel carcinogenetic molecule, p130cas (breast cancer antiestrogen resistance protein 1 or BCAR1) on proliferation and cell growth in lung adenocarcinoma. The study also aimed to identify the possible underlying signal networks of BCAR1. METHODS:First, we evaluated proliferation, cell colony formation, apoptosis, and cell cycle after BCAR1 was knocked out (KO) using CRISPR-Cas9 technology in H1975 and H1299 human lung adenocarcinoma cells. Subsequently, BCAR1 was upregulated in 293T cells and immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry (IP-MS) was used with bioinformatics analysis to screen for potential networks of BCAR1 interacting proteins. Ultimately, we validated the correlated expressions of BCAR1 and a selected hub gene, RNA polymerase II subunit A (POLR2A), in 54 lung adenocarcinoma tissues, as well as in H1975 and H1299 cells. RESULTS:Cell proliferation of H1975 and H1299 was significantly inhibited following BCAR1-KO. Colony formation of H1975 cells was also significantly decreased following BCAR1-KO. IP-MS demonstrated 419 potential proteins that may interact with BCAR1. Among them, 68 genes were significantly positively correlated to BCAR1 expression, as verified by TCGA. Six hub genes were revealed by PPI String. High expression of POLR2A, MAPK3, MOV10, and XAB2 predicted poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma, as verified by the K-M plotter database. POLR2A and MAPK3 are involved in both catalytic activity and transferase activity. POLR2A and BCAR1 were significantly increased in lung cancer tissues as compared with matched normal tissues. High expression of POLR2A was significantly positively correlated to BCAR1 overexpression and predicted poor prognosis in 54 lung cancer cases. POLR2A expression was significantly decreased following BCAR1-KO in H1975 and H1299 cells. CONCLUSIONS:BCAR1 promotes proliferation and cell growth, probably via upregulation of POLR2A and subsequent enhancement of catalytic and transferase activities. However, additional robust studies are required to elucidate the mechanisms involved.
