LncRNA MORT Inhibits Cancer Cell Proliferation and Promotes Apoptosis in Mantle Cell Lymphoma by Upregulating miRNA-16.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:LncRNA mortal obligate RNA transcript (MORT) is downregulated in different types of cancer, indicating its involvement in cancer biology. Methods:In this study, MORT and miRNA-16 were both downregulated in plasma of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients than that in the controls. The low levels of MORT and miRNA-16 were correlated with poor survival of MCL patients. The expression of MORT and miRNA-16 was positively correlated only in MCL patients. Results:Overexpression of MORT and miRNA-16 suppressed cell proliferation but promoted cancer cell apoptosis, while miRNA-16 inhibitor reduced the effects of MORT overexpression. Overexpression of MORT led to upregulated expression of miRNA-16, while overexpression of miRNA-16 had no effect on the expression of MORT. Conclusion:Therefore, MORT may inhibit cancer cell proliferation and promote apoptosis in mantle cell lymphoma by upregulating miRNA-16.

Bryostatin analogue-induced apoptosis in mantle cell lymphoma cell lines.

Project description:The anti-cancer effects of bryostatin-1, a potent diacylglycerol analogue, have traditionally been attributed to its action on protein kinase C. However, we previously documented apoptosis in a B non-Hodgkin lymphoma cell line involving diacylglycerol analogue stimulation of Ras guanyl-releasing protein, a Ras activator, and Bim, a proapoptotic Bcl-2 family protein. To further explore the role of Bim, we examined several Bim-deficient B non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells for their responses to pico, a synthetic bryostatin-1-like compound. The Bim(-) mantle cell lymphoma cell lines Jeko-1, Mino, Sp53, UPN1, and Z138 and the Bim(+) cell line Rec-1, as well as the Burkitt lymphoma cells lines BL2 (Bim(-)) and Daudi (Bim(+)), were examined for their response to pico using assays for proliferation and apoptosis as well as biochemical methods for Ras guanyl-releasing proteins and Bcl-2 family members. With the exception of UPN1, mantle cell lymphoma cell lines underwent pico-induced apoptosis, as did BL2. In some cases, hallmarks of apoptosis were substantially diminished in the presence of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors. Pico treatment generally led to increased expression of proapoptotic Bik, although the absolute levels of Bik varied considerably between cell lines. A pico-resistant variant of Z138 exhibited decreased Bik induction compared to parental Z138 cells. Pico also generally decreased expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL and Mcl1. Although, these changes in Bcl-2 family members seem unlikely to fully account for the differential behavior of the cell lines, our demonstration of a potent apoptotic process in most cell lines derived from mantle cell lymphoma encourages a re-examination of diacylglycerol analogues in the treatment of this subset of B non-Hodgkin lymphoma cases.

ZGDHu-1 promotes apoptosis of mantle cell lymphoma cells.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a well-defined aggressive Non-Hodgkin-lymphoma with short survival rates and remains incurable to date. Previously, we demonstrated the antitumor activity of ZGDHu-1(N, N'-di-(m-methylphenyi)-3, 6-dimethyl-1, 4-dihydro-1, 2, 4, 5-tetrazine-1, 4-dicarboamide) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In this study, ZGDHu-1 shows potent anti-lymphoma activity in MCL cells. ZGDHu-1 significantly induces cell cycle G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis in MCL cells. ZGDHu-1 reduces the protein levels of Mcl-1, Bcl-XL and cyclin D1. Importantly, ZGDHu-1 inhibits TNFα-induced IkBa phosphorylation, p65 nuclear translocation and NF-kB downstream target gene expression in MCL cells. MCL samples expressing high levels of Bcl-2 and high Bcl-2/Bax ratios tend to be less effective to ZGDHu-1. Together, these results suggest that ZGDHu-1 could inhibit the NF-kB signaling pathway partly, which may lead to the suppression of cell proliferation and the induction of apoptosis in MCL cells. Thus, our studies provide evidence of the potential of ZGDHu-1 in treating mantle cell lymphoma.

LncRNA MALAT1 promotes development of mantle cell lymphoma by associating with EZH2.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is considered an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with variable treatment responses. There is an urgent need to identify novel markers with prognostic and therapeutic value for MCL. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators in cancers, including MCL. Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1(MALAT1), a lncRNA located at pathognomonic translocation site of t (11; 14) of MCL. MALAT1 is known to be overexpressed in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. However, the pathological role and clinical relevance of MALAT1 in MCL are not completely understood.We quantified MALAT1 in MCL samples (40) and CD19+ B cells by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and correlated levels with clinical outcome. We silenced MALAT1 in MCL cell lines and analyzed cells in tumorigenic assays and formation of transcription complexes.We found that the expression of MALAT1 was elevated in human MCL tumors and cell lines as compared to normal controls, and the elevated levels of MALAT1 correlated with higher MCL international prognostic index (MIPI) and reduced overall survival. MCL with knockdown of MALAT1 showed impaired cell proliferation, facilitated apoptosis and produced fewer clonogenic foci. The increased expression of p21 and p27 upon MALAT1 knockdown was regulated by enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2). Moreover, decreased phosphorylation of EZH2 at T350 attenuated the binding to MALAT1.Our findings illuminate the oncogenic role of MALAT1, which may serve as a novel biomarker and as a therapeutic target in MCL.

Interferon gamma inducible protein 16 (IFI16) expression is reduced in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:IFI16, member of the IFN-inducible PYHIN-200 gene family, modulates proliferation, survival and differentiation of different cell lineages. In particular, IFI16 expression, which is regulated during the differentiation of B cells, was recently studied in B-CLL as well. Here, we compared IFI16 expression in several lymphomas including Burkitt lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma with respect to normal cell counterparts. We observed that IFI16 expression was significantly deregulated only in mantle cell lymphoma (p < 0.05). Notably, IFI16 was associated with the expression of genes involved in interferon response, cell cycle, cell death and proliferation and, interestingly, lipid and glucose metabolism, suggesting that IFI16 deregulation might be associated with relevant changes in cell biology. In our group of mantle cell lymphoma samples a correlation between patient survival and IFI16 expression was not detected even though mantle cell lymphoma prognosis is known to be associated with cell proliferation. Altogether, these results suggest a complex relationship between IFI16 expression and MCL which needs to be analyzed in further studies.

Targeting early B-cell receptor signaling induces apoptosis in leukemic mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:We previously showed that B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathways are important for in vitro survival of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cells. To further identify early BCR-activated signaling pathways involved in MCL cell survival, we focused our study on BCR-proximal kinases such as LYN whose dysregulations could contribute to the aggressive course of MCL.Primary MCL cells were isolated from 14 leukemic patients. Early BCR-induced genes were identified by qRT-PCR array. The basal and BCR-induced phosphorylation of LYN and JNK were evaluated by immunoblottting. Cell survival signals were evaluated by apoptosis using flow cytometry.We showed that LYN was constitutively phosphorylated in MCL cell lines and in 9/10 leukemic MCL cases. Treatment with dasatinib or with a specific inhibitor of Src kinases such as PP2 suppressed constitutive LYN activation and increased in vitro spontaneous apoptosis of primary MCL cells. BCR engagement resulted in an increase of LYN phosphorylation leading to activation of c-JUN NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and over-expression of the early growth response gene-1 (EGR-1). Inhibition of JNK with SP600125 induced apoptosis and reduced level of basal and BCR-induced expression of EGR-1. Furthermore, decreasing EGR1 expression by siRNA reduced BCR-induced cell survival. Treatment with PP2 or with dasatinib suppressed BCR-induced LYN and JNK phosphorylation as well as EGR-1 upregulation and is associated with a decrease of cell survival in all cases analysed.This study highlights the importance of BCR signaling in MCL cell survival and points out to the efficiency of kinase inhibitors in suppressing proximal BCR signaling events and in inducing apoptosis.

Rutin Promotes Pancreatic Cancer Cell Apoptosis by Upregulating miRNA-877-3p Expression.

Project description:(1) Background: pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious cancers due to its rapid and inevitable fatality, which has been proved very difficult to treat, compared with many other common cancers. Thus, developing an effective therapeutic strategy, especially searching for potential drugs, is the focus of current research. The exact mechanism of rutin in pancreatic cancer remains unknown. (2) Method: three pancreatic cancer cell lines were used to study the anti-pancreatic cancer effect of rutin. The potent anti-proliferative, anti-migration and pro-apoptotic properties of rutin were uncovered by cell viability, a wound-healing migration assay, and a cell apoptosis assay. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to detect the change of miRNAs expression. Immunoblotting analysis was used to detect the expression of apoptotic proteins. (3) Results: CCK-8 and EDU assays revealed that rutin significantly inhibited pancreatic cancer cells' proliferation (p < 0.05). A wound-healing assay showed that rutin significantly suppressed pancreatic cancer cells' migration (p < 0.05). A flow cytometric assay showed that rutin could promote pancreatic cancer cells' apoptosis. Intriguingly, rutin significantly upregulated miR-877-3p expression to repress the transcription of Bcl-2 and to induce pancreatic cancer cell apoptosis. Accordingly, rutin and miR-877-3p mimics could promote apoptotic protein expression. (4) Conclusions: our findings indicate that rutin plays an important role in anti-pancreatic cancer effects through a rutin-miR-877-3p-Bcl-2 axis and suggests a potential therapeutic strategy for pancreatic cancer.

Class IA PI3K inhibition inhibits cell growth and proliferation in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Background/aimsConstitutive activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway preferentially occurs in aggressive blastoid variants of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and is implicated in the pathogenesis of this disease. In this study, we investigated the role of PI3K isoforms on proliferation of aggressive MCL cells.MethodsThe changes in cell viability, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis induction by the PI3K isoform-selective inhibitors were evaluated. The molecular basis underlying the effects of the specific inhibition of PI3K isoforms was investigated by Western blot analysis.ResultsOur results demonstrated that a class IA PI3K isoform is most commonly involved in the constitutive activation of Akt in aggressive MCL. Treatment with a p110α isoform-specific inhibitor induced prominent cell cycle arrest followed by apoptosis through complete abolishment of phosphorylated (p)-Akt and its downstream targets. An inhibitor of isoform p110δ induced moderate cell cycle arrest with downregulation of p-Akt and p-S6K. A dual inhibitor of p110α and p110δ GDC-0941 caused more prominent cell growth inhibition compared to selective p110α or p110δ inhibitors. Inhibition of the class IB PI3K isoform p110γ did not cause cell cycle arrest or induce apoptosis in MCL cells.ConclusionThese findings suggest that the therapeutic ablation of class IA PI3K may be a promising strategy for the treatment of refractory, aggressive MCL.

Blockade of fatty acid synthase triggers significant apoptosis in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Fatty acid synthase (FASN), a key player in the de novo synthetic pathway of long-chain fatty acids, has been shown to contribute to the tumorigenesis in various types of solid tumors. We here report that FASN is highly and consistently expressed in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive form of B-cell lymphoid malignancy. Specifically, the expression of FASN was detectable in all four MCL cell lines and 15 tumors examined. In contrast, benign lymphoid tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from normal donors were negative. Treatment of MCL cell lines with orlistat, a FASN inhibitor, resulted in significant apoptosis. Knockdown of FASN expression using siRNA, which also significantly decreased the growth of MCL cells, led to a dramatic decrease in the cyclin D1 level. ?-catenin, which has been previously reported to be upregulated in a subset of MCL tumors, contributed to the high level of FASN in MCL cells, Interesting, siRNA knock-down of FASN in turn down-regulated ?-catenin. In conclusion, our data supports the concept that FASN contributes to the pathogenesis of MCL, by collaborating with ?-catenin. In view of its high and consistent expression in MCL, FASN inhibitors may hold promises for treating MCL.

Downregulated DUXAP8 lncRNA impedes trophoblast cell proliferation and migration by epigenetically upregulating TFPI2 expression.

Project description:BackgroundPreeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy complication characterized by new-onset hypertension and proteinuria during the second trimester, is the leading cause of neonatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. In the etiology of PE, failure of uterine spiral artery remodeling may be related to functioning abnormally of trophoblast cells, leading to the occurrence and progression of PE. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to play critical roles in PE nowadays. This study aimed to investigate the expression and functions of the TFPI2 pathway-related lncRNA DUXAP8.MethodsDUXAP8 expression in the placenta from pregnancies was examined using qPCR. Then, the in vitro functions of DUXAP8 were investigated through MTT, EdU, colony, transwell, and flow cytometry experiments. The downstream gene expression profiles were assessed using RNA transcriptome sequencing analysis and verified using qPCR and western blot. Furthermore, Immunoprecipitation (RIP), chromatin immunoprecipitation (CHIP) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were used to detect the interaction between lncDUXAP8/EZH2/TFPI2.ResultsThe expression of lncRNA DUXAP8 in placenta of patients with eclampsia was significantly decreased. After knockout of DUXAP8, the proliferation and migration of trophoblasts were significantly decreased, and the percentage of apoptosis was increased. Flow cytometry showed that low expression of DUXAP8 increased the accumulation of cells in G2/M phase, while overexpression of DUXAP8 had the opposite effect. We also proved that DUXAP8 epigenetically inhibited TFPI2 expression by recruiting EZH2 and mediating H3K27me3 modification.ConclusionTogether, these resulting data clarify that aberrant expression of DUXAP8 is involved in the potential PE development and progress. Unraveling the role of DUXAP8 will provide novel insights into the pathogenesis of PE.

Cirmtuzumab inhibits ibrutinib-resistant, Wnt5a-induced Rac1 activation and proliferation in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Cirmtuzumab may enhance the therapeutic activity of ibrutinib by inhibiting ROR1-dependent signaling pathway in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is B-cell malignancy that also expresses ROR1. In this study, we found that the plasma of patients with MCL had high levels of Wnt5a, a ROR1 ligand, that were comparable to those found in patients with CLL; in contrast Wnt5a was virtually undetectable in the plasma of age-matched healthy adults. We also found that Wnt5a induced Rac1 activation in the primary MCL cells. Cirmtuzumab, but not ibrutinib, could inhibit the capacity of Wnt5a to induce primary MCL cells to activate Rac1. Addition of exogenous Wnt5a in vitro significantly enhanced the numbers of MCL cell divisions and the proportion of dividing MCL cells entering S/G2 in MCL cells over time in the presence of CD154 and IL-4/10. Treatment of the MCL cells with cirmtuzumab, but not ibrutinib, blocked Wnt5a-enhanced proliferation of MCL cells. This study indicates that cirmtuzumab and ibrutinib may have complementary activity in the treatment of patients with MCL.
