Carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule 1 inhibits the antitumor effect of neutrophils in tongue squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1), a transmembrane glycoprotein, has multiple functions. In tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC), CEACAM1 overexpression is correlated with neutrophil infiltration, and both are associated with poor clinical outcomes. However, the mechanism underlying CEACAM1's effect on neutrophil function in TSCC remains unclear. We cocultured tongue carcinoma cells overexpressing CEACAM1-4L, CEACAM1-4S and differentiated HL-60 cells. This significantly upregulated the expression of MMP-9, interleukin 8, and VEGF-A in the differentiated HL-60 cells and downregulated the expression of TNF-?, relative to vector and blank control groups (P < 0.05). Additionally, CEACAM1 overexpression in tongue carcinoma cells weakened the cytotoxicity of differentiated HL-60 cells in the coculture system (P < 0.05). Thus, CEACAM1 expression in TSCC may induce an antitumor to protumor transformation of neutrophils. We performed qRT-PCR and ELISA to evaluate the underlying mechanism, and found that CEACAM1 expression in tongue carcinoma cells upregulated transforming growth factor ?1 (TGF-?1) expression, while blocking of TGF-?1 inhibited the neutrophils' changes in the coculture system. Immunohistochemical analysis of clinical specimens revealed strong expression of TGF-?1 protein in TSCC. TGF-?1 expression was positively correlated with CEACAM1 expression, lymph node metastasis, and tumor recurrence. Double immunofluorescence results revealed colocalization of CEACAM1 and TGF-?1 protein in TSCC. A xenograft nude mouse model revealed that CEACAM1 overexpression in TSCC promoted tumor formation and growth, and was associated with more neutrophils infiltration. Our results indicate that CEACAM1 overexpression in TSCC may induce transformation of neutrophils from antitumor to protumor type via TGF-?1, which may further promote tumor progression.

Project description:Patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease/steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH) commonly develop atherosclerosis through a mechanism that is not well delineated. These diseases are associated with steatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis. The role of insulin resistance in their pathogenesis remains controversial. Albumin (Alb)Cre+ Cc1flox ( fl ) /fl mice with the liver-specific null deletion of the carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (Ceacam1; alias Cc1) gene display hyperinsulinemia resulting from impaired insulin clearance followed by hepatic insulin resistance, elevated de novo lipogenesis, and ultimately visceral obesity and systemic insulin resistance. We therefore tested whether this mutation causes NAFLD/NASH and atherosclerosis. To this end, mice were propagated on a low-density lipoprotein receptor (Ldlr) -/- background and at 4 months of age were fed a high-cholesterol diet for 2 months. We then assessed the biochemical and histopathologic changes in liver and aortae. Ldlr-/-AlbCre+Cc1fl/fl mice developed chronic hyperinsulinemia with proatherogenic hypercholesterolemia, a robust proinflammatory state associated with visceral obesity, elevated oxidative stress (reduced NO production), and an increase in plasma and tissue endothelin-1 levels. In parallel, they developed NASH (steatohepatitis, apoptosis, and fibrosis) and atherosclerotic plaque lesions. Mechanistically, hyperinsulinemia caused down-regulation of the insulin receptor followed by inactivation of the insulin receptor substrate 1-protein kinase B-endothelial NO synthase pathway in aortae, lowering the NO level. This also limited CEACAM1 phosphorylation and its sequestration of Shc-transforming protein (Shc), activating the Shc-mitogen-activated protein kinase-nuclear factor kappa B pathway and stimulating endothelin-1 production. Thus, in the presence of proatherogenic dyslipidemia, hyperinsulinemia and hepatic insulin resistance driven by liver-specific deletion of Ceacam1 caused metabolic and vascular alterations reminiscent of NASH and atherosclerosis. Conclusion: Altered CEACAM1-dependent hepatic insulin clearance pathways constitute a molecular link between NASH and atherosclerosis.

Project description:Objective We have previously shown that expression of the CEACAM1 long isoform (CC1-L) in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) cells results in significant inhibition of liver metastasis via Chemokine (C-C motif) Ligand 2 (CCL2) and Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling. Yet, despite recent advances in identifying molecules involved in the CC1-L inhibition of metastasis, much remains to be elucidated regarding the molecular mechanisms orchestrating this pathway. Design We performed an untargeted transcript profiling and a phosphokinase screen between CC1-L-expressing and non-expressing (CT) CRC cells. Identified targets were validated in vitro and in vivo for their involvement in signaling and invasion or metastasis. We validated our conclusions in CRC patient cohorts for time to metastasis development and long-term survival. Results Untargeted transcript profiling revealed high Decorin (Dcn) expression in CC1-L-expressing cells versus CT cells. Decorin was detected at the peri-endothelial layers of large blood vessels and in liver stellate cells. In metastatic lesions, it was expressed in pericyte-like cells covering capillary endothelium. Phosphokinase differential screening revealed reduced Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2) expression and activity in CC1-L- versus CT-expressing cells. Treatment of CT cells with recombinant Dcn led to decreased migration and invasion and decreased EphA2-mediated Erk and Akt signaling. CRC patients exhibiting high CC1 and DCN expression, in combination with low EPHA2 expression, benefit from longer 10-year survival than those with high EPHA2 expression. Conclusion CC1-L expression in poorly differentiated CRC inhibits liver metastasis through increased Decorin expression and EphA2-mediated signaling. Quadriplicate samples of each mouse colon cancer cell lines (control cells versus those expressing either short or long isoform of CEACAM1) have been used for RNA extraction
