Necroptosis in pancreatic cancer promotes cancer cell migration and invasion by release of CXCL5.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Necroptosis is a form of programmed cell death that is accompanied by release of intracellular contents, and reportedly contributes to various diseases. Here, we investigate the significance of necroptosis in pancreatic cancer. METHODS:We used immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis to evaluate expression of the key mediators of necroptosis-receptor-interacting serine/threonine protein kinase 3 (RIP3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL)-in human pancreatic cancer. We also tested the effects of conditioned media (CM) from necroptotic cells on pancreatic cancer cells in Transwell migration and Matrigel invasion assays. Protein array analysis was used to investigate possible mediators derived from necroptotic cells. RESULTS:RIP3 and MLKL are highly expressed in human pancreatic cancer tissues compared with normal pancreas. MLKL expression was particularly intense at the tumor invasion front. CM derived from necroptotic cells promoted cancer cell migration and invasion, but not CM derived from apoptotic cells. C-X-C motif chemokine 5 (CXCL5) was upregulated in CM derived from necroptotic cells compared with CM derived from control or apoptotic cells. Moreover, expression of the receptor for CXCL5, C-X-C-motif chemokine receptor-2 (CXCR2), was upregulated in pancreatic cancer cells. Inhibition of CXCR2 suppressed cancer cell migratory and invasive behavior enhanced by necroptosis. CONCLUSION:These findings indicate that necroptosis at the pancreatic cancer invasion front can promote cancer cell migration and invasion via the CXCL5-CXCR2 axis.

LINC00152 promotes pancreatic cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion via targeting miR-150.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the top deaths causing cancers with low 5-year survival rate. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are recognized as a crucial type of nonprotein-coding transcripts implicated in tumorigenesis. Emerging evidence has implied that LINC00152 exerts the potential oncogenic functions in various cancers. Nevertheless, the role of LINC00152 in PC remains elusive. In the present study, we found that LINC00152 was significantly up-regulated while miR-150 was down-regulated both in tissues and cell lines of PC, indicating their negative correlation in PC progression. Functionally, overexpression of LINC00152 promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while LINC00152 knockdown reversed these effects. Mechanistic experiments reveal that miR-150 acted as a target of LINC00152 confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, inhibition of miR-150 could markedly attenuate the suppression of cell proliferation, migration and invasion by knocking down LINC00152. Altogether, our findings concluded that LINC00152 facilitated PC progression through inhibiting miR-150 expression, indicating an innovative therapeutic target for PC.

Roles of CXCL5 on migration and invasion of liver cancer cells.

Project description:Inflammatory factors play a vital role in the progression of liver cancer, although exact factors and related mechanisms still remain unclear. The present study aimed at screening inflammatory factors related to liver cancer metastasis and investigating the potential mechanism by which cancer cells are recruited. We screened and validated inflammatory factors by microarray and RT-PCR. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) and recombinant protein were used to assess CXCL5 effects on the movement of liver cancer cells (LCCs). Our screening microarray demonstrated over-expression of CXCL5 in LCCs with high metastatic potentials. CXCL5 increased LCCs migration and invasion, probably through autocrine and paracrine mechanisms. CXCL5-CXCR2 and ERK1/2 pathways could play critical roles in the regulation of LCCs migration. Our data indicates that LCCs per se may act as the producer and receptor of CXCL5 responsible for liver cancer migration and invasion.

Farnesoid X receptor, overexpressed in pancreatic cancer with lymph node metastasis promotes cell migration and invasion.

Project description:Lymph node metastasis is one of the most important adverse prognostic factors for pancreatic cancer. The aim of this study was to identify novel lymphatic metastasis-associated markers and therapeutic targets for pancreatic cancer.DNA microarray study was carried out to identify genes differentially expressed between 17 pancreatic cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis and 17 pancreatic cancer tissues without lymph node metastasis. The microarray results were validated by real-time PCR. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were used to examine the expression of farnesoid X receptor (FXR). The function of FXR was studied by small interfering RNA and treatment with FXR antagonist guggulsterone and FXR agonist GW4064.Farnesoid X receptor overexpression in pancreatic cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis is associated with poor patient survival. Small interfering RNA-mediated downregulation of FXR and guggulsterone-mediated FXR inhibition resulted in a marked reduction in cell migration and invasion. In addition, downregulation of FXR reduced NF-?B activation and conditioned medium from FXR siRNA-transfected cells showed reduced VEGF levels. Moreover, GW4064-mediated FXR activation increased cell migration and invasion.These findings indicated that FXR overexpression plays an important role in lymphatic metastasis of pancreatic cancer and that downregulation of FXR is an effective approach for inhibition of pancreatic tumour progression.

RIPK4/PEBP1 axis promotes pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion by activating RAF1/MEK/ERK signaling.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is a lethal disease with a high metastatic potential. In our previous study, we identified a specific subgroup of patients with pancreatic cancer with a serum signature of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)+/cancer antigen (CA)125+/CA19-9 ≥1,000 U/ml. In this study, by using high-throughput screening analysis, we found that receptor-interacting protein kinases 4 (RIPK4) may be a key molecule involved in the high metastatic potential of this subgroup of patients with pancreatic cancer. A high RIPK4 expression predicted a poor prognosis and promoted pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion via the RAF1/MEK/ERK pathway. Moreover, RIPK4 activated the RAF1/MEK/ERK pathway by regulating proteasome-mediated phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 1 (PEBP1) degradation. The suppression of PEBP1 degradation eliminated the RIPK4-induced activation of RAF1/MEK/ERK signaling and pancreatic cancer cell migration or invasion. Thus, on the whole, the findings of this study indicated that RIPK4 was upregulated in the subgroup of pancreatic cancer with a high metastatic potential. RIPK4 overexpression promoted pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion via the PEBP1 degradation-induced activation of the RAF1/MEK/ERK pathway.

TRIM37 Promotes Pancreatic Cancer Progression through Modulation of Cell Growth, Migration, Invasion, and Tumor Immune Microenvironment.

Project description:TRIM37 dysregulation has been observed in several cancer types, implicating its possible role in tumorigenesis. However, the role of TRIM37 in pancreatic cancer progression remains unclear. In the present study, we observed that TRIM37 knockdown resulted in reduced proliferation, clonogenicity, migration, and invasion ability of pancreatic cancer cells. Furthermore, an in vivo study using an orthotopic syngeneic animal model further confirmed that reduced expression of TRIM37 in cancer cells suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Moreover, in mice bearing TRIM37 knockdown pancreatic cancer cells, the proportion of CD11b+F4/80+MHCIIlow immunosuppressive macrophages was significantly reduced in tumor milieu, which might be due to the regulatory role of TRIM37 in cytokine production by pancreatic cancer cells. Collectively, these findings suggest a key role of TRIM37 in promoting pancreatic cancer progression.

LHPP suppresses proliferation, migration, and invasion and promotes apoptosis in pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer (PaCa) is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system with poor prognosis and no ideal treatment for inoperable patients, which is partly due to delayed diagnoses. It is recently reported that the protein histidine phosphatase LHPP is a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma, cervical cancer, and bladder cancer. So far, there is no study on the expression level of LHPP in PaCa, and its mechanism of action on tumors is unclear. In this experiment, LHPP expression was lower in cancer tissues than that in normal pancreatic tissue, and clinicopathological results showed that LHPP expression was correlated with the degree of differentiation and lymphatic metastasis of pancreatic carcinoma. The biological characteristics of LHPP in PaCa cells were examined by the cell counting kit-8 assay, transwell assay, and monoclonal formation test. The inhibitory mechanism of LHPP in PaCa cells was determined using Western blotting and flow cytometry. The results showed that LHPP restrained PaCa cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Increased LHPP expression promoted the apoptosis of PaCa cells through higher activation of cleaved-PARP and cleaved-Casp3 and lower activation of cIAP1. Importantly, the increase in LHPP enhanced PTEN expression and decreased the phosphorylated AKT level. Moreover, LHPP-induced apoptosis was diminished by SC79 (AKT activator) in PaCa cells. In conclusion, LHPP blocks proliferation, migration, and invasion and enhances apoptosis in PaCa cells through the PTEN/AKT signaling pathway.

PTK6 promotes cancer migration and invasion in pancreatic cancer cells dependent on ERK signaling.

Project description:Protein Tyrosine Kinase 6 (PTK6) is a non-receptor type tyrosine kinase that may be involved in some cancers. However, the biological role and expression status of PTK6 in pancreatic cancer is unknown. Therefore in this study, we evaluated the functional role of PTK6 on pancreatic cancer invasion. Five pancreatic cancer cell lines expressed PTK6 at varying levels. PTK6 expression was also observed in human pancreatic adenocarcinomas. PTK6 suppression by siRNA significantly reduced both cellular migration and invasion (0.59/0.49 fold for BxPC3, 0.61/0.62 for Panc1, 0.42/0.39 for MIAPaCa2, respectively, p<0.05 for each). In contrast, forced overexpression of PTK6 by transfection of a PTK6 expression vector in Panc1 and MIAPaCa2 cells increased cellular migration and invasion (1.57/1.67 fold for Panc1, 1.44/1.57 for MIAPaCa2, respectively, p<0.05). Silencing PTK6 reduced ERK1/2 activation, but not AKT or STAT3 activation, while PTK6 overexpression increased ERK1/2 activation. U0126, a specific inhibitor of ERK1/2, completely abolished the effect of PTK6 overexpression on cellular migration and invasion. These results suggest that PTK6 regulates cellular migration and invasion in pancreatic cancer via ERK signaling. PTK6 may be a novel therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.

ZKSCAN3 promotes bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

Project description:The expression status of ZKSCAN3, a zinc-finger transcription factor containing KRAB and SCAN domains, as well as its biological significance, in human bladder cancer remains largely unknown. In the current study, we aimed to determine the functional role of ZKSCAN3 in bladder cancer progression. Immunohistochemistry in tissue specimens detected ZKSCAN3 signals in 138 (93.2%) of 148 urothelial neoplasms, which was significantly higher than in non-neoplastic urothelial tissues [76 (84.4%) of 90; P=0.044]. Correspondingly, the levels of ZKSCAN3 gene were significantly elevated in bladder tumors, compared with those in adjacent normal-appearing bladder mucosae (P=0.008). In a validation set of tissue microarray, significantly higher ZKSCAN3 expression was observed in high-grade and/or muscle-invasive urothelial carcinomas than in low-grade and/or non-muscle-invasive tumors. Two bladder cancer cell lines, UMUC3 and 647V, were found to strongly express ZKSCAN3 protein/mRNA, whereas its expression in 5637 bladder cancer and SVHUC normal urothelium cell lines was very weak. ZKSCAN3 silencing via its short hairpin RNA (shRNA) in UMUC3 and 647V resulted in significant decreases in cell viability/colony formation, cell migration/invasion, and the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2/MMP-9 and oncogenes c-myc/FGFR3, as well as significant increases in apoptosis and the expression of tumor suppressor genes p53/PTEN. ZKSCAN3 overexpression in 5637 also induced cell growth and migration. In addition, ZKSCAN3-shRNA expression considerably retarded tumor formation as well as its subsequent growth in xenograft-bearing mice. These results suggest that ZKSCAN3 plays an important role in bladder cancer outgrowth. Thus, ZKSCAN3 inhibition has the potential of being a therapeutic approach for bladder cancer.

MEIS2 promotes cell migration and invasion in colorectal cancer.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common types of malignancy worldwide. Distant metastasis is a key cause of CRC‑associated mortality. MEIS2 has been identified to be dysregulated in several types of human cancer. However, the mechanisms underlying the regulatory role of MEIS2 in CRC metastasis remain largely unknown. For the first time, the present study demonstrated that MEIS2 serves a role as a promoter of metastasis in CRC. In vivo and in vitro experiments revealed that knockdown of MEIS2 significantly suppressed CRC migration, invasion and the epithelial‑mesenchymal transition. Furthermore, microarray and bioinformatics analyses were performed to investigate the underlying mechanisms of MEIS2 in the regulation of CRC metastasis. Additionally, it was identified that a high expression of MEIS2 was significantly associated with a shorter overall survival time for patients with CRC. The present study demonstrated that MEIS2 may serve as a novel biomarker for CRC.

SNORA71A Promotes Colorectal Cancer Cell Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion.

Project description:Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) play a crucial role during colorectal cancer (CRC) development. The study of SNORA71A is few, and its role in CRC is unknown. This study focused on screening abnormal snoRNAs in CRC and exploring the role of key snoRNA in CRC. The expression pattern of snoRNAs in 3 CRC and 3 normal colon tissues was detected via small RNA sequencing. The six candidate snoRNAs were identified by quantitative PCR (qPCR). Subsequently, the expression level of SNORA71A was further verified through the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data analysis and qPCR. The CCK8 and transwell assays were used to detect the functional role of SNORA71A in CRC cells. The integrated analysis of snoRNA expression profile indicated that a total 107 snoRNAs were significantly differentially expressed (DE) in CRC tissues compared with normal tissues, including 45 upregulated and 62 downregulated snoRNAs. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the DE snoRNAs were mainly implicated in "detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of smell" and "sensory perception of smell" in the biological process. The DE snoRNAs were preferentially enriched in "olfactory transduction" and "glycosphingolipid biosynthesis-ganglio series pathway." The expression of SNORA71A was upregulated in CRC tissues and cells. SNORA71A expression showed statistically significant correlations with TNM stage (P = 0.0196) and lymph node metastasis (P = 0.0189) and can serve as biomarkers for CRC. Importantly, SNORA71A significantly facilitated the CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Our findings indicate that SNORA71A screened by sequencing acted as an oncogene and promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of CRC cells.
