Quercetin Inhibits the Proliferation and Metastasis of Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cell Line: The Key Role of Src-Mediated Fibroblast Growth Factor-Inducible 14 (Fn14)/ Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-?B) pathway.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND Quercetin (Que) is reported to induce apoptosis of lung cancer cells. Src is closely related to the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and can be modulated by Que in macrophages. In the current study, the interaction between Que and Src signaling in NSCLC cells was explored to explain the anti-NSCLC function of Que. MATERIAL AND METHODS NSCLC cell line HCC827 was subjected to the administrations of Que at different concentrations. The effect of Que on tumor cell proliferation was detected using MTT and colony formation assays. Then the effect on the migration and invasion abilities was assessed using scratch and Transwell assays. At molecular level, the changes in Src/Fn14/NF-kappaB signaling were determined using western blotting assays. The role of Src in the function of Que was further explored by inducing the expression of Src gene in NSCLC cells before Que administration. The results of the in vitro assays were verified using a NSCLC mice model. RESULTS Que inhibited the proliferation and anchorage-independent growth of NSCLC cells. Additionally, Que delayed in the gap closure rate in scratch assays and decreased the membrane-penetrating cell number in Transwell assays. At a molecular level, Que suppressed the expression of Src, which subsequently inhibited Fn14/NF-kappaB signaling. In in vivo assays, Que inhibited the growth of solid tumors. After the overexpression of Src in NSCLC cells, the anti-NSCLC effect of Que was blocked by inducing NSCLC proliferation and metastasis, and by activating Fn14/NF-kappaB signaling. Moreover, the induced level of Src promoted the growth and metastasis potential of solid tumors in mice. CONCLUSIONS Que exerted the anti-NSCLC effect by inhibiting Src-mediated Fn14/NF-kappaB pathway both in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:BackgroundFn14 is a therapeutic target in various diseases.ResultsAnti-Fn14 antibodies activate the alternative NFκB pathway but not other Fn14-related activities induced by soluble or membrane-bound TWEAK. FcγR-bound anti-Fn14 antibodies, however, activate the full spectrum of Fn14-associated activities.ConclusionAnti-Fn14 antibodies elicit agonistic activities differing from those of the natural Fn14 ligand TWEAK.SignificanceThese findings influence the rationale of designing Fn14-targeted therapies. The Fn14-specific monoclonal antibodies PDL192 and P4A8, which are under consideration in clinical trials, showed no agonistic activity with respect to IL8 production and cell death induction. However, oligomerization with protein G or binding to Fcγ receptors converted both anti-Fn14 antibodies into potent agonists. TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK), the ligand of Fn14, occurs naturally in two forms with partly different signaling capabilities, as a membrane-bound ligand and as a soluble trimeric molecule. Although membrane TWEAK strongly triggers all Fn14-associated pathways, soluble TWEAK predominately triggers the alternative nuclear factor κB (NFκB) pathway and enhances TNF-induced cell death but has only a poor effect on the classical NFκB pathway and chemokine production. Thus, the oligomerized and FcγR-bound anti-Fn14 mAbs mimicked the activity of membrane TWEAK. Notably, both anti-Fn14 antibodies significantly triggered p100 processing, the hallmark of the alternative NFκB pathway, and therefore resembled soluble TWEAK. In contrast to the latter, however, the anti-Fn14s showed no effect on TNF receptor 1-induced cell death and P4A8 even blocked the corresponding TWEAK response. Thus, we showed that Fn14 antibodies display an alternative NFκB pathway-specific agonistic activity but fail to phenocopy other activities of soluble TWEAK, whereas oligomerized or FcγR-bound Fn14 antibodies fully mimic the activity of membrane TWEAK. In view of the trivalent nature of the TWEAK-Fn14 interaction, this suggests that the alternative NFκB pathway is uniquely responsive already to Fn14 dimerization enabling antibodies to elicit an unnatural response pattern distinct from that of the naturally occurring Fn14 ligands.
