FAM83B inhibits ovarian cancer cisplatin resistance through inhibiting Wnt pathway.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin resistance is frequently occurred in ovarian cancer therapy, understanding its regulatory mechanisms is critical for developing novel treatment methods and drugs. Here, we found ovarian cancer patients with low FAM83B levels had shorter survival time, tissues with cisplatin resistance also had low FAM83B levels, suggesting FAM83B might inhibit cisplatin resistance. FAM83B overexpression inhibits cisplatin resistance showed in increased ovarian cancer cell proliferation and growth rate, and reduced apoptosis rate, while FAM83B knockdown promotes cisplatin resistance. Mechanism analysis showed FAM83B interacted with APC to inhibit Wnt pathway activity, causing ovarian cancer cisplatin resistance. We also found FAM83B levels were negative with Wnt pathway activity in clinic samples, confirming FAM83B inhibited Wnt pathway activity. In summary, we found FAM83B inhibits ovarian cancer cisplatin resistance through inhibiting Wnt pathway, providing a new target for ovarian cancer therapy.

Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal cancer among female genital tumours. Standard therapies, including postoperative chemotherapy, exhibit high proportions of recurrence and resistance. Novel therapeutic strategies are combined with chemotherapy. Emerging studies have demonstrated that nigericin, an H+, K+ and Pb2+ ionophore, exhibits promising anticancer activity in various types of malignancy, such as colorectal and epithelial ovarian cancer. Our previous study suggested that nigericin could regulate EOC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and may be a novel chemotherapy candidate for EOC. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effects of combined therapy with cisplatin, and the associated underlying mechanisms, are not yet fully understood. The present study aimed to clarify the effects of combined chemical therapy with nigericin and cisplatin on EOC cells and to reveal its mechanism. Wound healing, Transwell, cell viability and colony formation assays were used to measure the migration, invasion and proliferation of EOC cells. Western blotting was used to detect protein expression. A slug overexpression lentivirus was used to create a slug overexpression model in SK-OV-3 cells. Small interfering RNA was used to knock down slug expression. Nigericin combined with cisplatin enhanced the inhibitory effects of cisplatin on the migration and colony formation of EOC cells. Nigericin also enhanced the inhibitory effects of cisplatin on the expression levels of MMP7, as well as the inhibitory effects of cisplatin on the expression levels of β-catenin and GSK-3β, indicating that nigericin and cisplatin regulated in the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. When slug was knocked down, the effect of nigericin was weakened. Overexpression of slug could repress the inhibitory effect of nigericin on the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. Furthermore, nigericin inhibited slug expression by enhancing its modification through small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs; referred to as SUMOylation). Overall, the present results demonstrated that nigericin combined with cisplatin might serve as a novel therapeutic strategy in patients with metastatic EOC because the combined therapy had higher effectiveness than single drug use. The underlying mechanism of combined therapy maybe the enhanced inhibitory effect of slug through its nigericin-induced SUMOylation.

Project description:BackgroundOvarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy worldwide. Olaparib, an inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), is becoming widely used in ovarian cancer treatment. The overall survival of ovarian cancer has not been significantly changed over the past decades and ovarian cancer has become increasingly resistant to the Olaparib. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2S (UBE2S) has been proved to promote malignant behaviors in many cancers. However, the function of UBE2S in the development and Olaparib resistance of ovarian cancer are unclear.Materials and methodsIn this study, we detected the expression of UBE2S in normal fallopian tube (FT) and HGSOC tissues. A2780 and SKOV3 cells were stably transfected with PCMV-UBE2S, PCMV-UBE2S-C95S, UBE2S shRNAs, and negative controls. The CCK8 assay and clonogenic assay were conducted to analyze ovarian cancer proliferation and Olaparib resistance. The transwell assay was performed to determine the migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells. The relative protein levels of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were tested using western blot. The ovarian cancer cells were treated with XAV-939 to investigate the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in Olaparib resistance. Moreover, we repeated some above procedures in the xenograft model.ResultsThe results demonstrated that UBE2S was highly upregulated in HGSOC and that high UBE2S expression was correlated with poor outcomes in HGSOC. UBE2S promoted ovarian cancer proliferation and drived the migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells. UBE2S activated the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in ovarian cancer resulting in Olaparib resistance in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, UBE2S enhanced the proliferation and Olaparib resistance of ovarian cancer in its enzymatic activity dependent manner.ConclusionsThese data suggest a possible molecular mechanism of proliferation and metastasis of ovarian cancer and highlight the potential role of UBE2S as a therapeutic target in ovarian cancer.

Project description:Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is mainstay treatment in urinary bladder cancer (UBC). However, tumor recurrence frequently occurs with the acquisition of cisplatin resistance. We explored the potential effect of a polyherbal preparation, Zyflamend, on UBC cells resistant to cisplatin treatment.To establish a cisplatin-resistant human bladder cancer cell line, T24 cells were cultured in increasing concentrations of cisplatin for more than 10 months. These cells (T24R) were then treated with different concentrations of Zyflamend, and both proliferation and activity of nuclear factor kappaB (NF?B) signaling pathway were examined. To test the synergistic effect between Zyflamend and cisplatin, we treated T24R cells either with Zyflamend or cisplatin alone, or in combination. Apoptotic effect was evaluated by Annexin V/propidium iodide double staining, and the levels of the proteins involved in cell cycle and anti-apoptosis were examined by Western blotting. Finally, mice with palpable xenograft were treated either with cisplatin and Zyflamend alone or in combination for 28 days before they were sacrificed for measuring the sizes and weights of the tumor tissues. In addition, proliferation and apoptosis markers were examined by immunohistochemistry.Comparing to that in the parental T24 cells, NF?B is constitutively active in cisplatin-resistant T24R cells. Zyflamend is capable of inhibiting the growth of T24, T24R, as well as another UBC cell line J82 in a concentration-dependent manner. Mechanistically, Zyflamend suppresses NF?B-mediated cell proliferation, survival, and invasion/angiogenesis and induces apoptosis. In addition, Zyflamend significantly increased the sensitivity of T24R and J82 cells to cisplatin treatment and these findings were confirmed in T24R xenograft model with reduced proliferation index and decreased expression of RelA and its downstream target MMP9.Zyflamend is capable of counteracting bladder cancer resistance to cisplatin by repressing proliferation and inducing apoptosis through targeting NF?B signaling pathway.

Project description:Background: Ovarian cancer is the most lethal female genital malignancy. Although cisplatin is the first-line chemotherapy to treat ovarian cancer patients along with debulking surgeries, its efficacy is limited due to the high incidence of cisplatin resistance. ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) has been shown to be a key metabolic enzyme and is associated with poor prognosis in various cancers, including ovarian cancer. Nevertheless, no studies have probed the mechanistic relationship between ACLY and cisplatin resistance. Methods: Survival analysis was mainly carried out online. Bioinformatic analysis was performed in R/R studio. Proliferative activity was measured by MTT and colony formation assays. Cell cycle and apoptosis analysis were performed by flow cytometry. The acquired-cisplatin-resistant cell line A2780/CDDP was generated by exposing A2780 to cisplatin at gradually elevated concentrations. MTT assay was used to calculate IC50 values of cisplatin. A xenograft tumor assay was used test cell proliferation in vivo. Results: Higher expression of ACLY was found in ovarian cancer tissue and related to poor prognosis. Knockdown of ACLY in A2780, SKOV3, and HEY cells inhibited cell proliferation, caused cell-cycle arrest by modulating the P16-CDK4-CCND1 pathway, and induced apoptosis probably by inhibiting p-AKT activity. Bioinformatic analysis of the GSE15709 dataset revealed upregulation of ACLY and activation of PI3K-AKT pathway in cells with acquired cisplatin resistance, in line with observations on A2780/CDDP cells that we generated. Knockdown of ACLY alleviated cisplatin resistance, and works synergistically with cisplatin treatment to induce apoptosis in A2780/CDDP cells by inhibiting the PI3K-AKT pathway and activating AMPK-ROS pathway. The ACLY-specific inhibitor SB-204990 showed the same effect. In A2780/CDDP cells, AKT overexpression could attenuate cisplatin re-sensitization caused by ACLY knockdown. Conclusions: Knockdown of ACLY attenuated cisplatin resistance by inhibiting the PI3K-AKT pathway and activating the AMPK-ROS pathway. These findings suggest that a combination of ACLY inhibition and cisplatin might be an effective strategy for overcoming cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.
