NANOGP8 expression regulates gastric cancer cell progression by transactivating DBC1 in gastric cancer MKN-45 cells.

ABSTRACT: NANOGP8 is one of the NANOG pseudogenes and is expressed together with NANOG in multiple tumor tissues and cell lines. The biological functions of NANOGP8 in progression of gastric cancer are unclear. In the present study, the role of NANOGP8 was investigated in gastric cancer cells. The gathered data demonstrated that NANOG expression in both mRNA and protein was elevated in gastric cancer cell lines relative to a normal gastric epithelial cell line. Downregulation of NANOGP8 inhibited cell proliferation and increased apoptosis in human gastric carcinoma cell lines. Furthermore, silencing of NANOGP8 suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Interestingly, it was identified that deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1) expression was also markedly downregulated following NANOGP8 knockdown. DNA microarray and dual-luciferase assays further indicated that NANOGP8 may bind to the DBC1 promoter region and regulate DBC1 expression. Therefore, the gathered data provided evidence that NANOGP8 contributes to progression of gastric cancer via DBC1 and may have potential translational significance.

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) is a significant cancer-related cause of death worldwide. The most used chemotherapeutic regimen in GC is based on platinum drugs such as cisplatin (CDDP). However, CDDP resistance reduces advanced GC survival. In vitro drug-resistant cell model would help in the understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying this drug-resistance phenomenon. The aim of this study was to characterize new models of CDDP-resistant GC cell lines (AGS R-CDDP and MKN-28 R-CDDP) obtained through a stepwise increasing drug doses method, in order to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying chemoresistance as well as identify new therapeutic targets for the treatment of GC. Cell viability assays, cell death assays and the expression of resistance molecular markers confirmed that AGS R-CDDP and MKN-28 R-CDDP are reliable CDDP-resistant models. RNA-seq and bioinformatics analyses identified a total of 189 DEGs, including 178 up-regulated genes and 11 down-regulated genes, associated mainly to molecular functions involved in CDDP-resistance. DEGs were enriched in 23 metabolic pathways, among which the most enriched was the inflammation mediated by chemokine and cytokine signaling pathway. Finally, the higher mRNA expression of SERPINA1, BTC and CCL5, three up-regulated DEGs associated to CDDP resistance found by RNA-seq analysis was confirmed. In summary, this study showed that AGS R-CDDP and MKN-28 R-CDDP are reliable models of CDDP resistance because resemble many of resistant phenotype in GC, being also useful to assess potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of gastric cancers resistant to CDDP. In addition, we identified several DEGs associated with molecular functions such as binding, catalytic activity, transcription regulator activity and transporter activity, as well as signaling pathways associated with inflammation process, which could be involved in the development of CDDP resistance in GC. Further studies are necessary to clarify the role of inflammatory processes in GC resistant to CDDP and these models could be useful for these purposes.
