TSPAN9 and EMILIN1 synergistically inhibit the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells by increasing TSPAN9 expression.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Globally, the incidence and mortality rates of gastric cancer are high, and its poor prognosis is closely related to tumor recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, the molecular mechanisms associated with the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells are important for gastric cancer treatment. Previously, TSPAN9 has been reported to inhibit gastric cancer cell migration; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear.

Methods

Human gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines, SGC7901 and AGS, were cultured in vitro. TSPAN9 expression was determined by RT-PCR, western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry in gastric cancer and tumor-adjacent tissues. Following the over-expression and knockdown of TSPAN9, wound healing and cell invasion assays were performed and EMT-related protein expression was evaluated to analyze the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells. TSPAN9 expression and the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cells were observed by the functional assays following EMILIN1 over-expression.

Results

Inhibiting TSPAN9 expression significantly promoted the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells. In addition, immunofluorescence co-localization and co-immunoprecipitation analysis revealed closely related expression of EMILIN1 and TSPAN9. Moreover, EMILIN1 can synergistically boost the tumor suppressive effect of TSPAN9, which may be produced by promoting TSPAN9 expression.

Conclusions

We have demonstrated that EMILIN1 induces anti-tumor effects by up-regulating TSPAN9 expression in gastric cancer. Hence, membrane proteins TSPAN9 and EMILIN1 may represent novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Progesterone and Src family inhibitor PP1 synergistically inhibit cell migration and invasion of human basal phenotype breast cancer cells.

Project description:Basal phenotype breast cancer is one of the most aggressive breast cancers that frequently metastasize to brain. The role of sex hormones and their receptors in development of this disease is largely unclear. We demonstrated that mPRα was expressed at a moderate level in a brain metastatic BPBC cell line MB231Br, which was derived from the parent mPRα undetectable MB231 cells. It functioned as an essential mediator for progesterone induced inhibitory effects on cell migration of MB231Br and, when coincubated with PP1, synergistically enhanced the progesterone's inhibitory effect on cell migration and invasion in vitro. Progesterone and PP1 cotreatment induced a cascade of molecular signaling events, such as dephosphorylation of FAK, downregulation of MMP9, VEGF, and KCNMA1 expressions. Our in vitro study demonstrated that mPRα was expressed and functioned as an essential mediator for progesterone induced inhibitory effects on cell migration and invasion in BPBC cells. This inhibitory effect was enhanced by PP1 via FAK dephosphorylation, MMP9, VEGF, and KCNMA1 downregulation mechanisms. Our study provides a new clue toward the development of novel promising agents and pathways for inhibiting nuclear hormonal receptor-negative and endocrine-resistant breast cancers.

Thiosemicarbazone-based selective proliferation inactivators inhibit gastric cancer cell growth, invasion, and migration.

Project description:A series of novel thiosemicarbazone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against several selected tumor cell lines of different origins using the MTT assay. The preliminary results indicated that the MGC-803 cell line was remarkably sensitive to all the synthesized compounds. Among this series, compound 5n showed the best inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 0.93 ?M (about 10-fold more potent than 3-AP) against MGC-803. Further mechanism studies revealed that compound 5n could obviously inhibit the proliferation of MGC-803 cells by inducing apoptosis and arresting the cell cycle at the S phase. Compound 5n also showed marked inhibition of cell migration and invasion, without significant cytotoxicity against gastric epithelial immortalized GES-1 cells.

Arsenic sulfide induces miR-4665-3p to inhibit gastric cancer cell invasion and migration.

Project description:PurposeGastric carcinogenesis is a multistep process and is the second-highest cause of cancer death worldwide with a high incidence of invasion and metastasis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) engage in complex interactions with the machinery that controls the transcriptome and concurrently target multiple mRNAs. Recent evidence has shown that miRNAs are involved in the cancer progression, including promoting cell-cycle, conferring resistance to apoptosis, and enhancing invasiveness and metastasis. Here, we aim to elucidate the roles of miRNAs, especially microRNA-4665-3p (miR-4665-3p), in the inhibitory effect of arsenic sulfide in gastric cancer (GC).MethodsThe arsenic sulfide-induced miRNA expression alterations in AGS cells was determined by miRNA microarray. RT-PCR was used to further verify the arsenic sulfide-regulated miRNAs in GC tissues. The inhibition of miR-4665-3p on the migration and invasion of GC cells were determined by wound healing assay and transwell assay. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of EMT related proteins and the putative target of miR-4665-3p.ResultsThe miR-4665-3p was up-regulated by arsenic sulfide and showed inhibition upon the migration and invasion of GC cells. MiRBase and Western blotting indicated that miR-4665-3p directly down-regulated the oncoprotein GSE1. Morphological observation also indicated that the up-regulation of miR-4665-3p inhibits the EMT in GC cells.ConclusionOur data demonstrates that the increased expression of miR-4665-3p induced by arsenic sulfide suppresses the cell invasion, metastasis and EMT of GC cells, and has the potential to be a novel therapeutic target in GC.

miR 1296-5p Inhibits the Migration and Invasion of Gastric Cancer Cells by Repressing ERBB2 Expression.

Project description:The metastasis of gastric cancer, one of the most common tumors, has a molecular mechanism that is still largely unclear. Here we investigated the role of possible tumor-suppressor miR-1296-5p in the cell migration and invasion of ERBB2-positive gastric cancer. It found that miR-1296-5p was significantly down-regulated in gastric cancer tissues. Moreover, it was down-regulated in lymph node metastatic gastric cancer tissues compared with non-metastatic gastric cancer tissues. The luciferase activity of ERBB2 3'-untranslated region-based reporters constructed in SNU-216 and NUGC-4 gastric cancer cells suggested that ERBB2 was the target gene of miR-1296-5p. Overexpressed miR-1296-5p reduced its target protein level and Rac1 activation, and inhibited the migration and invasion of SNU-216 and NUGC-4 gastric cancer cells. MiR-1296-5p was down-regulated in ERBB2-positive gastric cancer tissues compared with ERBB2-negative gastric cancer tissues. In ERBB2-positive gastric cancers, the miR-1296-5p expression was suppressed in a majority of metastatic lymph node tissues compared to non-metastatic gastric cancer samples. The migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells was inhibited by miR-1296-5p overexpression or herceptin treatment, and rescued by the overexpression of constitutively active Rac1-Q61L or ERBB2. Taken together, our findings first suggest that miR-1296-5p might be involved in the regulation on the migration and invasion of human gastric cancer cells at least in part via targeting ERBB2/Rac1 signaling pathway.

LINC01272 Promotes Migration and Invasion of Gastric Cancer Cells via EMT.

Project description:Purpose:Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common tumor in the world, and most patients with GC have a poor prognosis. This study aimed to explore the biological influence and mechanism of LINC01272 in GC. Materials and Methods:Using bioinformatic analyses, we investigated the expression of LINC01272 in TCGA database and predicted the biological functions and mechanism of LINC01272 in GC. Then, we detected the expression of LINC01272 in GC cell lines, GC tissues, and corresponding normal tissues using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Finally, we explored the migration and invasion ability of LINC01272 by wound-healing and Transwell assays and examined the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins through Western blotting. Results:We found that LINC01272 was upregulated in GC and was associated with GC staging and lymph node metastasis. The results of wound-healing and Transwell assays revealed that the LINC01272 was closely related to GC cell migration and invasion. LINC01272 knockdown inhibited the migration and invasion ability of GC cells by reducing the expression of EMT-related proteins. Overexpression of LINC01272 had the opposite effect. Conclusion:Together, our results showed that LINC01272 promoted GC metastasis ability by regulating the expression of EMT-related proteins and could serve as a potential diagnostic biomarker for GC.

Enhancement of Migration and Invasion of Gastric Cancer Cells by IQGAP3.

Project description:Although gastric cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer death in the world, mechanisms underlying this type of tumor have not been fully understood. In this study, we found that IQGAP3, a member of the IQGAP gene family, was significantly up-regulated in human gastric cancer starting from the early stages of tumor progression. Overexpression of IQGAP3 in 293T and NIH3T3 cells, which have no endogenous IQGAP3 expression, resulted in morphological change with multiple dendritic-like protrusions and enhanced migration. Overexpression of IQGAP3 also led to reduced cell-cell adhesion in 293T cells, likely as a result of its interactions with e-cadherin or β-catenin proteins. Additionally, IQGAP3 accumulated along the leading edge of migrating cells and at the cleavage furrow of dividing cells. In contrast, suppression of IQGAP3 by short-interfering RNA (siRNA) markedly reduced invasion and anchorage-independent growth of MKN1 and TMK-1 gastric cancer cells. We further confirmed that IQGAP3 interacted with Rho family GTPases, and had an important role in cytokinesis. Taken together, we demonstrated that IQGAP3 plays critical roles in migration and invasion of human gastric cancer cells, and regulates cytoskeletal remodeling, cell migration and adhesion. These findings may open a new avenue for the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.

Circ-104916 is downregulated in gastric cancer and suppresses migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

Project description:Circular RNAs are a large class of noncoding RNA that have shown huge capabilities as gene regulators. Recent evidence suggest that circular RNAs are associated with many diseases, especially cancer. However, little attention has been focused on the expression and function of circular RNA in gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we demonstrate that the expression of circ-104916 is downregulated in GC tissues and cell lines. A lower expression of circ-104916 appeared in deeper invasion depth, higher tumor stage and more frequent lymphatic metastasis patients. Overexpression of circ-104916 effectively inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion abilities of GC cells in vitro. Western blot showed that circ-104916 overexpression upregulated E-cadherin and downregulated N-cadherin, Vimentin and Slug, indicating that circ-104916 was involved in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process. Our results revealed that circ-104916 might be a novel potential tumor suppressor and biomarker of GC.

High expression of GPR176 predicts poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients and promotes the proliferation, migration, and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

Project description:G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most prominent family of cell surface receptors, which can regulate various biological functions and play an essential role in many diseases. GPR176 is a member of the GPCRs family and has been rarely studied in cancer. We aim to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of GPR176 in gastric cancer (GC) and explore its potential mechanism. Through the TCGA database and real-time quantitative PCR, we found that the expression level of GPR176 was significantly increased in GC and had good value in the diagnosis and prognosis of GC. Vitro experiments revealed that GPR176 could promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells and may be involved in regulating multiple tumors and immune-related signaling pathways. In addition, we found that GPR176 is associated with GC immune infiltration and may affect the immune efficacy of GC patients. In summary, the high GPR176 expression level was associated with poor prognosis, more robust immune infiltration, and worse immunotherapy efficacy in GC patients, suggesting that GPR176 may be an immune-related biomarker for GC that can promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells.

Upregulation of LINC00659 expression predicts a poor prognosis and promotes migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) serve an important role in the progression of cancer. LINC00659 was recently identified as a novel oncogenic lncRNA involved in colon cancer cell proliferation via modulating the cell cycle. However, the function of LINC00659 in other types of cancer, especially in gastric cancer (GC), remains unknown. In the present study, bioinformatics analysis combined with cell experiments were performed to explore the function of LINC00659 in GC. It was revealed that LINC00659 expression was significantly upregulated in GC tissues and cell lines. Increased levels of LINC00659 were associated with advanced tumor stage and unfavorable prognosis of patients with GC. Additionally, upregulated LINC00659 expression promoted the migration and invasion of GC cells. Further analysis using a bioinformatics method revealed that matrix metalloproteinase 15 and IQ motif-containing GTPase activating protein 3 were potential downstream targets of LINC00659 involved in tumor metastasis, although the precise underlying mechanism requires further exploration.
