Coiled-coil domain containing 68 (CCDC68) demonstrates a tumor-suppressive role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Using integrative genomics and functional screening, we identified coiled-coil domain containing 68 (CCDC68) as a novel putative tumor suppressor gene (TSG) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). CCDC68 allelic losses were documented in 48% of primary PDAC patient tumors, 50% of PDAC cell lines and 30% of primary patient derived xenografts. We also discovered a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant (SNP rs1344011) that leads to exon skipping and generation of an unstable protein isoform CCDC68?(69-114) in 31% of PDAC patients. Overexpression of full length CCDC68 (CCDC68(wt)) in PANC-1 and Hs.766T PDAC cell lines lacking CDCC68 expression decreased proliferation and tumorigenicity in scid mice. In contrast, the downregulation of endogenous CCDC68 in MIAPaca-2 cells increased tumor growth rate. These effects were not observed with the deletion-containing isoform, CCDC68?(69-114).

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by fast tumor progression and diagnosis at advanced, inoperable stages. Previous studies could demonstrate an involvement of miR-192-5p in epigenetic regulation of visceral carcinomas. Due to contradictory results, however, the clinical utility of miR-192-5p in PDAC has yet to be determined. MiR-192-5p expression was analyzed by RT-qRT-PCR in human PDAC and benign tissue (n = 78), blood serum (n = 81) and serum exosomes (n = 74), as well as in PDAC cell lines (n = 5), chemoresistant cell clones (n = 2), and pancreatic duct cell line H6c7. Analysis of EMT-associated (epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition) proteins was performed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. MiR-192-5p was deregulated in PDAC as compared to healthy controls (HCs), with downregulation in macrodissected tissue (p < 0.001) and upregulation in blood serum of PDAC UICC (Union for International Cancer Control) stage IV (p = 0.016) and serum exosomes of PDAC UICC stages II to IV (p < 0.001). MiR-192-5p expression in tumor tissue was significantly lower as compared to corresponding peritumoral tissue (PDAC UICC stage II: p < 0.001; PDAC UICC stage III: p = 0.024), while EMT markers ZEB1 and ZEB2 were more frequently expressed in tumor tissue as compared to peritumoral tissue, HCs, and chronic pancreatitis. Tissue-derived (AUC of 0.86; p < 0.0001) and exosomal (AUC of 0.83; p = 0.0004) miR-192-5p could differentiate between PDAC and HCs with good accuracy. Furthermore, high expression of miR-192-5p in PDAC tissue of curatively resected PDAC patients correlated with prolonged overall and recurrence-free survival in multivariate analysis. In vitro, miR-192-5p was downregulated in gemcitabine-resistant cell clones of AsPC-1 (p = 0.029). Transient transfection of MIA PaCa-2 cells with miR-192-5p mimic resulted in downregulation of ZEB2. MiR-192-5p seems to possess a tumor-suppressive role and high potential as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in PDAC.
