NAT1 promotes osteolytic metastasis in luminal breast cancer by regulating the bone metastatic niche via NF-?B/IL-1B signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is a molecularly heterogeneous disease that can be subdivided into different subtypes. Compared with the other subtypes, luminal breast cancer (LBC) is considered more susceptible to bone metastasis. However, the intrinsic mechanisms remain elusive. Bioinformatics analysis of the preset study showed that N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1) was specifically expressed in LBC and closely correlated with bone metastasis. In addition, NAT1 could promote LBC cell migration and clonal formation, induce osteoclast differentiation and raise the Rankl/Opg ratio in osteoblasts. Our in vivo experiment demonstrated that NAT1 promoted LBC bone metastasis and bone destruction, which could be reversed by NAT1 inhibitor treatment. The result of cytokine array showed that NAT1 could significantly over activate the NF-?B signaling pathway and up-regulate the expression of IL-1B, which further worked as downstream factors in these processes. All these results demonstrated NAT1 was up-regulated in LBC and promoted the formation of bone metastatic niche and osteolytic bone metastasis through the NAT1/NF-?B/IL-1B axis. This finding may provide a new pathway to help understand the mechanisms of LBC bone metastasis and suggest a novel therapeutic and diagnostic target for its treatment.

Project description:Objectives: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease characterized by degeneration of joint cartilage and is a significant cause of severe joint pain, physical disability, and impaired quality of life in the aging population. Celastrol, a Chinese herbal medicine, has attracted wide interests because of its anti-inflammatory effects on a variety of diseases. This study aimed to investigate the effect of celastrol on OA as well as the mechanisms in vivo and in vitro. Methods: A rat knee OA model was established using "medial collateral ligament transection (MCLT) + partial meniscectomy (pMMT)". Eight weeks after surgery, the OA rats started to receive intra-articular injection of celastrol (1 mg/kg) once a week. Safranin O-fast green (S&F) and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining were used to estimate histopathological changes. Micro-CT was used to evaluate bone volume of the subchondral bone of the knee joint. Chondrocytes were isolated from the knee cartilage of rats and OA patients. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western Blot (WB), Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) were used to detect the expression of inflammatory factors and stromal proteins, respectively. Results: We found that celastrol treatment significantly delayed the progression of cartilage damage with a significant reduction in osteophyte formation and bone resorption in OA rat model. In IL-1β-stimulated rat chondrocytes, celastrol significantly suppressed the production of inflammatory factors such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and prostaglandin E2 (PEG2), and reduced IL-1β-induced matrix degradation by down-regulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13). In addition, we found that toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) was up-regulated in OA patients and rat knee OA models, while celastrol inhibited TLR2 signal and its downstream nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) phosphorylation. Conclusion: In summary, celastrol may improve OA by inhibiting the TLR2/NF-κB signaling pathway, which provides innovative strategies for the treatment of OA.
