P300 promotes proliferation, migration, and invasion via inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition in non-small cell lung cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Histone acetyltransferase p300 is a crucial transcriptional coactivator and has been implicated as a poor prognostic factor in human cancers. However, little is known about the substantial functions and mechanisms of p300 in NSCLC proliferation and distant metastasis. METHODS:We constructed p300 down-regulated and up-regulated cell lines through RNAi and recombinant plasmid transfection. Cell Counting Kit-8 assays were used to test the cell proliferation and confirmed by colony formation assays. Wound healing assays and transwell chamber assays were used to test the migration and invasion ability. Based upon these results, we measured the epithelial markers and mesenchymal markers after regulating p300 expression to explore epithelial-mesenchymal transition as a potential mechanism of p300 promoting NSCLC metastasis. RESULTS:In NSCLC cells NCI-H1975 and NCI-H1993, down-regulation of p300 leads to inhibition of cell proliferation and colony formation. Cells with reduced p300 expression also demonstrate inhibited migration and invasion ability. Contrarily, up-regulation of p300 significantly enhanced the proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion ability of NCI-H460. Importantly, further investigation shows that decreased p300 expression is associated with reduced expression of mesenchymal markers and increased expression of epithelial markers, while up-regulated p300 expression correlated with decreased expression of epithelial markers and increased expression of mesenchymal markers. CONCLUSIONS:As a crucial tumor promoter, p300 promotes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in NSCLC cells. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition is a potential mechanism of p300 promoting NSCLC metastasis.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of this work was to investigate the clinicopathological significance of fibrinogen gamma chain (FGG) and its biological roles during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development and progression.MethodsThe expression of FGG was examined by Western blot and reverse transcription quantitative PCR in two different sample sets, including 24 or 35 pairs of HCC tumor tissues and their corresponding adjacent non-tumorous tissues. Afterward, association analysis between the expression of FGG and clinicopathological characteristics was systematically analyzed in 79 HCC patients. Subsequently, the mobility and invasiveness of SK-HEP-1 cells with FGG overexpression or knockdown were evaluated by transwell assay and wound healing assay. Additionally, the expressions of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated markers were also detected in FGG overexpressed or silenced SK-HEP-1 cells.ResultsThe expression of FGG was significantly increased in primary HCC tissues comparing with its corresponding adjacent non-tumorous tissues. Clinical pathological analysis demonstrated that upregulation of intracellular FGG was significantly associated with increased vascular invasion, more satellite nodules, and more advanced TNM stage, and HCC patients with stronger expression of FGG had a higher recurrence rate and correspondingly a shorter overall survival time. Meanwhile, the high expression of FGG was also proved to be an independent risk factor for disease-free survival after surgical resection. In vitro phenotype studies showed that overexpression of FGG could promote the migration and invasion in SK-HEP-1 cells; conversely, these phenotypes could be significantly inhibited by knocking down the expression of FGG. Mechanism studies indicated that FGG could promote the migration and invasion through EMT signaling pathway by regulating the expressions of Slug and ZEB1.ConclusionFGG played important roles in enhancing cancer cell motility and invasiveness through EMT signaling, and might serve as a potential prognostic biomarker for HCC patients.
