DEPDC1B is a tumor promotor in development of bladder cancer through targeting SHC1.

ABSTRACT: Bladder cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed malignant tumors in the urinary system and causes a massive cancer-related death. DEPDC1B is a DEP domain-containing protein that has been found to be associated with a variety of human cancers. This study aimed to explore the role and mechanism of DEPDC1B in the development of bladder cancer. The analysis of clinical specimens revealed the upregulated expression of DEPDC1B in bladder cancer, which was positively related to tumor grade. In vitro and in vivo studies showed that DEPDC1B knockdown could inhibit the growth of bladder cancer cells or xenografts in mice. The suppression of bladder cancer by DEPDC1B was executed through inhibiting cell proliferation, cell migration, and promoting cell apoptosis. Moreover, a mechanistic study found that SHC1 may be an important route through which DEPDC1B regulates the development of bladder cancer. Knockdown of SHC1 in DEPDC1B-overexpressed cancer cells could abolish the promotion effects induced by DEPDC1B. In conclusion, DEPDC1B was identified as a key regulator in the development of bladder cancer, which may be used as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of bladder cancer.

Project description:BackgroundProgrammed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) receptor has two ligands,programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and PD-L2. When compared with PD-L1, PD-L2 has not received much attention, and its role remains unclear.MethodsThe expression profiles of pdcd1lg2 (PD-L2-encoding gene) mRNA and PD-L2 protein were analyzed using TCGA, ICGC, and HPA databases. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to assess the prognostic significance of PD-L2. We used GSEA, Spearman's correlation analysis and PPI network to explore the biological functions of PD-L2. PD-L2-associated immune cell infiltration was evaluated using the ESTIMATE algorithm and TIMER 2.0. The expressions of PD-L2 in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in human colon cancer samples, and in mice in an immunocompetent syngeneic setting were verified using scRNA-seq datasets, multiplex immunofluorescence staining, and flow cytometry. After fluorescence-activated cell sorting, flow cytometry and qRT-PCR and transwell and colony formation assays were used to evaluate the phenotype and functions of PD-L2+TAMs. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy prediction analysis was performed using TIDE and TISMO. Last, a series of targeted small-molecule drugs with promising therapeutic effects were predicted using the GSCA platform.ResultsPD-L2 was expressed in all the common human cancer types and deteriorated outcomes in multiple cancers. PPI network and Spearman's correlation analysis revealed that PD-L2 was closely associated with many immune molecules. Moreover, both GSEA results of KEGG pathways and GSEA results for Reactome analysis indicated that PD-L2 expression played an important role in cancer immune response. Further analysis showed that PD-L2 expression was strongly associated with the infiltration of immune cells in tumor tissue in almost all cancer types, among which macrophages were the most positively associated with PD-L2 in colon cancer. According to the results mentioned above, we verified the expression of PD-L2 in TAMs in colon cancer and found that PD-L2+TAMs population was not static. Additionally, PD-L2+TAMs exhibited protumor M2 phenotype and increased the migration, invasion, and proliferative capacity of colon cancer cells. Furthermore, PD-L2 had a substantial predictive value for ICIs therapy cohorts.ConclusionPD-L2 in the TME, especially expressed on TAMs, could be applied as a potential therapeutic target.
