ITGB3/CD61: a hub modulator and target in the tumor microenvironment.

ABSTRACT: ?3 integrin (ITGB3), also known as CD61 or GP3A, is one of the most widely studied components in the integrin family. As an adhesion receptor on the cell surface, ITGB3 participates in reprogramming tumor metabolism, shaping the stromal and immune microenvironment, facilitating epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and endothelial to mesenchymal transition (End-MT) and maintaining tumor stemness, etc. Recent studies proposed various intervention strategies against ITGB3 and have achieved promising outcomes in several types of tumor. Here, we review the adaption response and cellular crosstalk in the tumor microenvironment mediated by ITGB3, as well as its upstream and downstream signaling pathways. Lastly, we focus on the inhibitors of ITGB3, ultimately indicating that ITGB3 is a promising target in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:BackgroundChaperonin-containing tailless complex polypeptide 1 (TCP1) subunit 3 (CCT3) has tumor-promoting effects in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms of CCT3 in LUAD oncogenesis.MethodsThe UALCAN databases, Human Protein Atlas (HPA) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data were used to analyze CCT3 expression in LUAD. Both the Wilcoxon rank-sum test and the regression model were used to investigate the connection between clinicopathologic characteristics of LUAD patients and CCT3 expression. The prognostic value of CCT3 was determined by Cox regression models, the Kaplan-Meier method and Nomogram prediction. Next, we identified the most related genes with CCT3 via GeneMANIA and String databases, and the association between CCT3 and infiltrated immune cells using single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA). CCT3-related pathway enrichment analysis was investigated by GSEA. Finally, CCT3 roles in cell proliferation and apoptosis of LUAD A549 cells was verified by siRNA (small interfering RNA) mediated CCT3 knockdown.ResultsCCT3 was upregulated in LUAD both in mRNA and protein levels. CCT3 overexpression was associated with clinicopathological characteristics including sex, smoking, T- and N-categories, pathological staging, and a poor prognosis of LUAD patients. GeneMANIA and String databases found a set of CCT3-related genes that are connected to the assembly and stability of proteins involved in proteostasis of cytoskeletal filaments, DNA repair and protein methylation. Furthermore, CCT3 was found to be positively correlated with the infiltrating Th2 cells (r = 0.442, p < 0.01) while negatively correlated with mast cells (r = -0.49, p < 0.01) and immature dendritic cells (iDCs, r = -0.401, p < 0.001) according to ssGSEA analyzes. The pathway analysis based on GSEA method showed that the cell cycle pathway, the protein export pathway, the proteasome pathway and the ribosome pathway are enriched in CCT3 high group, whereas the JAK/STAT pathway, B cell receptor pathway, T cell receptor pathway and toll like receptor pathway were enriched in CCT3 low group. Finally, CCT3 knockdown substantially inhibited proliferation while promoted apoptosis of A549 cells.ConclusionIntegrated analyzes identify CCT3 as a modulator to shape immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in LUAD and therefore, a prognostic factor for LUAD.
