Mutations in the coat complex II component SEC23B promote colorectal cancer metastasis.

ABSTRACT: Metastasis is the leading cause of death for colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the protein transport process involved in CRC metastasis remains unclear. In this report, we use whole-exome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to identify somatic mutations in CRC samples and found mutations of the protein transport gene Sec23 homolog B (SEC23B) in patients with metachronous liver metastasis. We show that deletion of SEC23B suppresses the membrane localization of adhesion proteins and augments cell mobility. SEC23B mutations either cause a premature stop (C649T) or impair its protein transport activity (C1467G and T488C?+?G791A?+?G2153A). Furthermore, SEC23B mutations inhibit the transport of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EPCAM) and CD9 molecule, thereby attenuating cell adhesion and promoting invasiveness both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, these data demonstrate the important impact of SEC23B mutations on metastasis, and we propose that SEC23B is a potential suppressor of CRC metastasis.

Project description:Objective:To study the role of LncRNA PTTG3P in colorectal cancer (CRC) and the underlying mechanism. Patients and Methods:The expression level of LncRNA PTTG3P was evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in CRC cell lines and tumor tissues from 43 CRC patients, and the correlations between LncRNA PTTG3P expression and the clinicopathological indicators and prognosis of CRC patients were analyzed. Then, a PTTG3P knockdown model in CRC cell lines HCT-8 and HCT-116 was constructed. Finally, the relationship between LncRNA PTTG3P and microRNA-155-5p was explored through luciferase reporter experiments and recovery experiments. Results:qRT-PCR results showed that LncRNA PTTG3P was markedly up-regulated in CRC tumor tissues than that in adjacent tissues. Meanwhile, patients with high LncRNA PTTG3P expression had higher rates of lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis. In addition, cell functional experiments suggested that knocking down PTTG3P markedly reduced the migration abilities of CRC cells. Subsequently, bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter gene experiments suggested that LncRNA PTTG3P could directly bind to microRNA-155-5P. Analysis of CRC tissue samples showed that microRNA-155-5P expression was markedly reduced in CRC and was negatively correlated with LncRNA PTTG3P. Finally, the recovery experiments also suggested that there was a mutual regulation between LncRNA PTTG3P and microRNA-155-5P, and silencing microRNA-155-5P can reverse the inhibitory effect of knocking down PTTG3P on the malignant progression of CRC. Conclusion:In summary, LncRNA PTTG3P level was markedly increased in CRC, and was highly correlated to the incidence of lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis in CRC patients. In addition, LncRNA PTTG3P might promote the ability of CRC to invade and migrate by downregulating microRNA-155-5P. Therefore, dissecting the aberrant regulation of LncRNA PTTG3P/microRNA-155-5P may be valuable for early screening, guidance treatment, and recurrence detection of CRC.
