Overexpression of golgi membrane protein 1 promotes non-small-cell carcinoma aggressiveness by regulating the matrix metallopeptidase 13.

ABSTRACT: Non-small-cell carcinoma (NSCLC) is one of the most lethal malignancies of lung cancers and its prognosis remains dismal due to the paucity of effective therapeutic targets. Recent reports show that Golgi membrane protein 1 (GOLM1) is highly expressed in a variety of tumor cells, functions as a negative regulator of T cells and then promotes tumor progression. However, its expression and role in NSCLC remain unclear. Herein, we showed that GOLM1 was markedly up-regulated in NSCLC cell lines and clinical tissues. Clinically, NSCLC patients with high expression of GOLM1 had shorter overall survival (OS) and high GOLM1 expression in tumor samples was significantly related to malignant phenotype, such as lymph node metastasis and high tumor stage. Ectopic expression of GOLM1 in NSCLC cells induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells in vitro. Furthermore, GOLM1 overexpressing significantly promoted the tumorigenicity of NSCLC cells in vivo whereas silencing endogenous GOLM1 caused an opposite outcome. Moreover, we demonstrated that GOLM1 enhanced NSCLC aggressiveness by activating matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP13) signaling. Together, our results provided new evidence that GOLM1 overexpression promoted the progression of NSCLC and might represent a novel therapeutic target for its treatment.

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common type of malignant brain tumor. GBM is currently treated with temozolomide (TMZ), although patients often exhibit resistance to this agent. Although several mechanisms underlying the resistance of GBM to TMZ have been identified, the combination of these mechanisms is not sufficient to fully account for this phenomenon. Our previous study demonstrated that knocking down the Forkhead box protein O3a (FoxO3a) gene, a member of the FoxO subfamily of transcription factors, resulted in glioma cell sensitization to TMZ, accompanied by reduced levels of nuclear β-catenin. The aim of the present study was to specify how FoxO3a and β-catenin are implicated in glioma cell TMZ resistance. Using the U87 and U251 parental cell lines (also designated as sensitive cell lines) and corresponding resistant cell lines (U87-TR and U251-TR, generated by repeated TMZ treatments), coupled with a combined knockdown/overexpression strategy, it was revealed that FoxO3a or β-catenin overexpression in TMZ-treated U87 and U251 cells markedly increased cellular proliferation; co-expression of both FoxO3a and β-catenin resulted in the highest increase. Knockdown of either FoxO3a or β-catenin in U87-TR and U251-TR cells led to a significant decrease in cell viability, which was rescued by the re-expression of FoxO3a in FoxO3a-knockdown cells. Subsequent experiments demonstrated that, in U87-TR and U251-TR cells, FoxO3a knockdown significantly reduced the protein levels of matrix metallopeptidase (MMP)9, while overexpression of FoxO3a in U87 and U251 cells enhanced the nuclear accumulation of β-catenin, concomitantly with an increase in MMP9 levels. Furthermore, MMP9 knockdown markedly reduced the levels of nuclear β-catenin. Collectively, the findings of the present study suggest that FoxO3a may regulate the nuclear accumulation of β-catenin by modulating MMP9 expression, thereby rendering glioblastoma cells resistant to TMZ, and may provide unique molecular insights into the mechanisms underlying the development of TMZ resistance in GBM.

Project description:BackgroundFollowing an acute insult, macrophages regulate renal fibrogenesis through the release of various factors that either encourage the synthesis of extracellular matrix synthesis or the degradation of matrix via endocytosis, proteolysis, or both. However, the roles of infiltrating versus resident myeloid cells in these opposing processes require elucidation. The transcription factor Twist1 controls diverse essential cellular functions through induction of several downstream targets, including matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). In macrophages, Twist1 can influence patterns of cytokine generation, but the role of macrophage Twist1 in renal fibrogenesis remains undefined.MethodsTo study Twist1 functions in different macrophage subsets during kidney scar formation, we used two conditional mutant mouse models in which Twist1 was selectively ablated either in infiltrating, inflammatory macrophages or in resident tissue macrophages. We assessed fibrosis-related parameters, matrix metallopeptidase 13 (MMP13, or collagen 3, which catalyzes collagen degradation), inflammatory cytokines, and other factors in these Twist1-deficient mice compared with wild-type controls after subjecting the animals to unilateral ureteral obstruction. We also treated wild-type and Twist1-deficient mice with an MMP13 inhibitor after unilateral ureteral obstruction.ResultsTwist1 in infiltrating inflammatory macrophages but not in resident macrophages limited kidney fibrosis after ureteral obstruction by driving extracellular matrix degradation. Moreover, deletion of Twist1 in infiltrating macrophages attenuated the expression of MMP13 in CD11b+Ly6Clo myeloid cells. Inhibition of MMP13 abrogated the protection from renal fibrosis afforded by macrophage Twist1.ConclusionsTwist1 in infiltrating myeloid cells mitigates interstitial matrix accumulation in the injured kidney by promoting MMP13 production, which drives extracellular matrix degradation. These data highlight the complex cell-specific actions of Twist1 in the pathogenesis of kidney fibrosis.

Project description:Objectives: Zeel T (Ze14) is a multicomponent medicinal product. Initial preclinical data suggested a preventive effect on cartilage degradation. Clinical observational studies demonstrated that Ze14 reduced symptoms of osteoarthritis (OA), including stiffness and pain. This study aimed to explore these effects further to better understand the mode of action of Ze14 on human OA chondrocytes in vitro. Methods: Primary chondrocytes were obtained from the knees of 19 OA patients and cultured either as monolayers or in alginate beads. The cultures were treated with 20% or 10% (v/v) Ze14 or placebo. For RNA-seq, reads were generated with Illumina NextSeq5000 sequencer and aligned to the human reference genome (UCSC hg19). Differential expression analysis between Ze14 and placebo was performed in R using the DESeq2 package. Protein quantification by ELISA was performed on selected genes from the culture medium and/or the cellular fractions of primary human OA chondrocyte cultures. Results: In monolayer cultures, Ze14 20% (v/v) significantly modified the expression of 13 genes in OA chondrocytes by at least 10% with an adjusted p-value < 0.05: EGR1, FOS, NR4A1, DUSP1, ZFP36, ZFP36L1, NFKBIZ, and CCN1 were upregulated and ATF7IP, TXNIP, DEPP1, CLEC3A, and MMP13 were downregulated after 24 h Ze14 treatment. Ze14 significantly increased (mean 2.3-fold after 24 h, p = 0.0444 and 72 h, p = 0.0239) the CCN1 protein production in human OA chondrocytes. After 72 h, Ze14 significantly increased type II collagen pro-peptide production by mean 27% (p = 0.0147). For both time points CCN1 production by OA chondrocytes was correlated with aggrecan (r = 0.66, p = 0.0004) and type II collagen pro-peptide (r = 0.64, p = 0.0008) production. In alginate beads cultures, pro-MMP-13 was decreased by Ze14 from day 7-14 (from -16 to -25%, p < 0.05) and from day 17-21 (-22%, p = 0.0331) in comparison to controls. Conclusion: Ze14 significantly modified the expression of DUSP1, DEPP1, ZFP36/ZFP36L1, and CLEC3A, which may reduce MMP13 expression and activation. Protein analysis confirmed that Ze14 significantly reduced the production of pro-MMP-13. As MMP-13 is involved in type II collagen degradation, Ze14 may limit cartilage degradation. Ze14 also promoted extracellular matrix formation arguably through CCN1 production, a growth factor well correlated with type II collagen and aggrecan production.
