ADRB3 expression in tumor cells is a poor prognostic factor and promotes proliferation in non-small cell lung carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The cross-talk between cancer cells and monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs) promotes non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) progression. In this study, we report that both cancer cells and Mo-AMs robustly express beta 3-adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) in NSCLC. ADRB3 supports lung cancer cells proliferation and promotes chronic inflammation. Genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of ADRB3 reverses tumor growth and inflammation in mouse. Furthermore, we demonstrate that M5D1, a novel anti-ADRB3 monoclonal antibody, inhibits human lung cancer cells proliferation and inflammation via affecting the intracellular mTOR pathway and activating p53. In NSCLC patients, we confirmed that upregulation of ADRB3 expression correlates with tumor progression and poor prognosis. Altogether, these results shed light on the role of ADRB3 in NSCLC and suggest that M5D1 could become powerful antitumor weapons.

Project description:BackgroundImmunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment strategy in malignant tumors. Inhibitors and neutralizing antibodies targeted PD-1 or PD-L1 show improved clinical outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). Previous studies concluded that PD-1 was mainly expressed on activated T cells, B cells and other immune cells. Recently, two studies suggested that PD-1 could be detected in the tumor cells of melanoma and hepatocellular carcinoma. Tumor-endogenous PD-1 in NSCLCs has not been reported at present. Thus, we intended to explore the expression and prognostic relevance of tumor-endogenous PD-1 in NSCLCs.MethodsWe detected the PD-1 expression in fresh tumor samples and tumor slices by flow cytometer and immunohistochemical analysis respectively. Overall survival (OS) and dis-ease-free survival (DFS) were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve. We explored the PD-1 expression in lung cancer cell lines and investigated its effect on cell proliferation.ResultsFlow cytometry showed that tumor cells with endogenous PD-1 constituted 2.08%, 2.42%, 1.79%, and 1.21% in 4 clinical NSCLC samples respectively. Thirty-four patients (34%) in the cohort were positive for tumor-endogenous PD-1 in IHC analysis. Patients with tumor-endogenous PD-1 had significantly worse 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Multivariate analysis identified tumor-endogenous PD-1 as an independent risk factor (HR =3.807, 95% CI: 2.031-7.135, P<0.05). PD-1 could be observed in 4 kinds of lung cancer cell lines (A549, H1975, H1299 and HCC827). PD-1 overexpression could enhance proliferation and clone formation of these cell lines.ConclusionsPD-1 was endogenously expressed on the tumor cells of NSCLCs, and it could serve as an independent prognostic risk factor. The molecular mechanism of inferior survival of tumor-endogenous PD-1 may attribute to its role in promoting cell proliferation and clone formation. Our results demonstrated the non-immune role of PD-1 in tumor microenvironment and may provide new thinking for the therapy of NSCLCs.

Project description:Background: MEOX1 is a homeobox transcriptional factor, and plays essential roles in regulating somite development. Our previous study indicated that MEOX1 is a critical molecular target in mesenchymal-like cancer cells in PTEN-deficient Trastuzumab resistant breast cancer. Despite the potential implication of MEOX1 for the cancer progression, no previous studies examined its level and clinical significance in lung cancer tissues. In this study, we aimed to detect the MEOX1 expression and correlate its level with clinical outcome in non-small-cell lung cancer patients (NSCLC). Methods: MEOX1 gene expression in lung cancer was examined by using the Oncomine database. MEOX1 protein levels were evaluated by IHC using the corresponding primary antibody on two different commercial lung cancer tissue arrays. siRNA knockdown was used to elucidate the function of MEOX1. Results: Analysis of the Oncomine datasets identified that an elevation of MEOX1 in gene amplification in lung cancer tissues in comparison to normal lung tissues. Immunohistochemistical analysis demonstrated that MEOX1 was localized predominantly in the nucleus, and positive rate was 67.3% (111/165) in NSCLC samples. Statistical analysis revealed high levels of MEOX1 significantly correlated with Lymph Node Metastasis and Stage. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that high levels of MEOX1 were significantly associated with unfavorable survival in NSCLC patients, and MEOX1 nucleus staining had worse survival, than did patients with overall expression in lung squamous cell carcinoma patients. Multivariate Cox's regression analysis found that MEOX1 was an independent poor prognostic predictor for patients with NSCLC. Silencing of MEOX1 by specific SiRNA significantly inhibited H460 and H1299 cell proliferation and sphere formation in serum-free medium. Conclusions: Our results firstly indentified that high levels of MEOX1 especially nuclear staining was an independent prognostic factor for NSCLC, and it served a essential roles in the regulation of cell proliferation and colony formation in vitro. It may represent a potential target for the NSCLC treatment.
