Project description:Metastasis of hepatoblastoma (HB) is a key factor that impairs the prognosis and treatment of children. The suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (SOCS2) is a classical negative feedback protein that regulates cytokine signal transduction and has been known to be downregulated in several tumor, but the molecular mechanisms of its involvement in HB metastasis are unknown. We found that SOCS2 was a gene down-regulated in hepatoblastoma and associated with HB metastasis through bioinformatics. The qRT-PCR, Western blot and IHC showed that SOCS2 was significantly lower in HB tissues. Clinicopathological correlation analysis revealed that low expression of SOCS2 was significantly correlated with tumor metastasis (P = 0.046) and vascular invasion (P = 0.028), associated with poor prognosis. Overexpression of SOCS2 inhibited the migration and invasion of hepatoblastoma cells, while knockdown of SOCS2 expression promoted these malignant phenotypes. In vivo studies revealed overexpression of SOCS2 inhibited the formation of lung metastasis. Up-regulation of SOCS2 in HB cell inhibited EMT and JAK2/STAT5. Conversely, down-regulation of SOCS2 promoted EMT and JAK2/STAT5. The addition of the JAK2 inhibitor Fedratinib partially reversed the effects of si-SOCS2 on HB cells. SOCS2 may inhibit the migration and invasion of HB cells by inhibiting the JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathway. These results may provide guiding significance for the clinical treatment of HB.

Project description:Mammalian folliculogenesis, maturation of the ovarian follicles, require both growth factors derived from oocyte and surrounding cells, including stromal cells. However, the mechanism by which stromal cells and derived factors regulate oocyte development remains unclear.We observed that SENP1, a small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-specific isopeptidase, was expressed in sm22α-positive stromal cells of mouse ovary. The sm22α-positive stromal cells tightly associated with follicle maturation. By using the sm22α-specific Cre system, we show that mice with a stromal cell-specific deletion of SENP1 exhibit attenuated stroma-follicle association, delayed oocyte growth and follicle maturation with reduced follicle number and size at early oocyte development, leading to premature ovarian failure at late stages of ovulating life. Mechanistic studies suggest that stromal SENP1 deficiency induces down-regulation of BMP4 in stromal cells concomitant with decreased expression of BMP4 receptor BMPR1b and BMPR2 on oocytes.Our data support that protein SUMOylation-regulating enzyme SENP1 plays a critical role in early ovarian follicle development by regulating gene expression of BMP4 in stroma and stroma-oocyte communication.

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) play essential roles in progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the roles of miR-196a and miR-196b as well as mechanism in HCC progression remain poorly understood. The expressions of miR-196a, miR-196b and suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (SOCS2) were measured in HCC tissues and cells by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or immunohistochemistry. HCC progression was investigated by cell proliferation, glycolysis, cycle, clones, apoptosis, and necrosis. The interaction between SOCS2 and miR-196a or miR-196b was explored by luciferase activity and RNA immunoprecipitation analyses. The expressions of proteins in Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway were measured by western blot. A xenograft model was established to investigate the roles of miR-196a or miR-196b in vivo. We found that miR-196a and miR-196b were highly expressed in HCC tissues and cells. High expression of miR-196a or miR-196b was correlated with tumor size, tumor-node-metastasis stage, lymph node metastasis, albumin-bilirubin grade and poor 5-year survival. Knockdown of miR-196a or miR-196b suppressed cell proliferation, glycolysis, cell cycle process, colony formation but induced apoptosis or necrosis in HCC cells. SOCS2 was targeted by miR-196a and miR-196b and its interference ablated abrogation of miR-196a or miR-196b-mediated inhibitory effect on HCC progression. SOCS2 was negatively associated with activation of the JAK/STAT pathway. Besides, knockdown of miR-196a or miR-196b limited xenograft tumor growth by blocking the JAK/STAT pathway. We concluded that downregulation of miR-196a or miR-196b inhibited HCC progression through regulating the JAK/STAT pathway via targeting SOCS2, providing novel targets for prognosis and therapeutics of HCC.

Project description:Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the interleukin-6 (IL6)-related cytokine subfamily that includes IL6, IL11, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), ciliary neurotrophic factor and cardiotrophin-1. While human OSM has been characterized and the bovine OSM gene was recently cloned, the murine counterpart had not been identified. Here we describe molecular cloning of murine OSM as an immediate early gene induced by a subset of cytokines including IL2, IL3 and erythropoietin (EPO) in myeloid and lymphoid cell lines. The induction kinetics of OSM are rapid and transient, reaching a maximal level within 30-60 min and decreasing thereafter. Induction of OSM depends on the signals generated by the membrane-proximal region of the EPO receptor as well as that of the beta chain of the IL3/GM-CSF receptor, which activate JAK2 and STAT5. About 100 bases upstream of the transcription initiation site of the OSM gene contains a possible STAT5 binding site which is essential for IL2, IL3 and EPO-dependent promoter activity of the OSM gene. Expression of STAT5 and the EPO receptor in COS cells conferred EPO-dependent activation of the OSM promoter. Moreover, the mutant IL2 receptor lacking the ability to activate STAT5 induced c-myc but failed to induce OSM. Thus OSM is one of the common targets of a subset of cytokines that activate STAT5. The murine OSM gene is located near to the LIF gene, expressed at high levels in bone marrow and possesses similar biological activity to human OSM. Identification of murine OSM as a cytokine-inducible immediate early gene provides a new insight into the physiological function of this unique cytokine.

Project description:BackgroundPRDM5 is considered a tumor suppressor in several types of solid tumors and is involved in multiple cellular processes. However, target genes regulated by PRDM5 in lung cancer and its potential mechanism are poorly defined.MethodsSurvival analysis was conducted using Kaplan-Meier estimates based on the online databases. RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed to identify the differentially expressed genes in PRDM5-overexpressed A549 cells.ResultsWe observed deregulated PRDM5 in several lung adenocarcinoma cell lines and its association with a poor prognosis. PRDM5 overexpression inhibited the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in a xenograft model. PRDM5 upregulated the promoter activity of SOCS1, which then inhibited the phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3.ConclusionsOur study suggests that the low expression of PRDM5 promotes the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells by downregulating SOCS1 and then upregulating the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Project description:Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) proteins are negative feedback regulators of the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. Dysregulation of SOCS protein expression in cancers can be one of the mechanisms that maintain STAT activation, but this mechanism is still poorly understood in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Here, we report that SOCS2 protein is significantly downregulated in OSCC patients and its levels are inversely correlated with miR-424-5p expression. We identified the SOCS2 protein, which modulates STAT5 activity, as a direct target of miR-424-5p. The miR-424-5p-induced STAT5 phosphorylation, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) expression, and cell migration and invasion were blocked by SOCS2 restoration, suggesting that miR-424-5p exhibits its oncogenic activity through negatively regulating SOCS2 levels. Furthermore, miR-424-5p expression could be induced by the cytokine IL-8 primarily through enhancing STAT5 transcriptional activity rather than NF-κB signaling. Antagomir-mediated inactivation of miR-424-5p prevented the IL-8-induced cell migration and invasion, indicating that miR-424-5p is required for IL-8-induced cellular invasiveness. Taken together, these data indicate that STAT5-dependent expression of miR-424-5p plays an important role in mediating IL-8/STAT5/SOCS2 feedback loop, and scavenging miR-424-5p function using antagomir may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of OSCC.

Project description:IntroductionDiabetic nephropathy (DN) is a leading cause of kidney failure. Lysozyme (LYZ) is an essential component of innate immunity and exhibits antibacterial properties. However, LYZ has been reported to induce nephropathy, implying a possible association between impaired renal function and lysozyme expression.Material and methodsBioinformatics analysis was used to predict the hub gene associated with DN, and the differential expression of the hub gene was confirmed using a mouse model. A mouse model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic nephropathy was established to investigate the correlation between DN and LYZ expression, and the functionality of LYZ was verified through knockdown and overexpression experiments conducted in vivo. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was utilized to assess fibrosis-related markers and cytokines, while Masson staining was performed to assess renal fibrosis. Fibroblast proliferation was assessed using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The role of the JAK pathway was confirmed using the JAK inhibitor AG490, and Western blot was used to investigate the underlying mechanisms.ResultsMechanistically, 25 mM glucose promotes the expression of LYZ in fibroblastic cells, and LYZ may in turn promote the proliferation of renal interstitial fibroblasts. Western blot shows that glucose can activate STAT3 in an LYZ-dependent manner, and the JAK inhibitor AG490 can partially suppress LYZ-induced STAT3 activation. Furthermore, in vivo observations have revealed that overexpression of LYZ is associated with the senescent phenotype of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs).ConclusionsLysozyme promotes kidney fibrosis via the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway in diabetic nephropathy, and glucose may promote fibroblast proliferation by promoting LYZ auto-secretion.

Project description:FLT3-ITD and FLT3-TKD are the most frequent tyrosine kinase mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), with the former associated with poor prognosis. Here, we show that the PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941 or the Akt inhibitor MK-2206 induced apoptosis through the mitochondria-mediated intrinsic pathway more efficiently in hematopoietic 32D cells driven by FLT3-TKD (32D/TKD) than FLT3-ITD (32D/ITD), which robustly activated STAT5. The resistance to GDC-0941 and MK-2206 was gained by expression of the constitutively activated STAT5 mutant STAT5A1*6 in 32D/TKD cells, while it was abrogated by the STAT5 inhibitor pimozide in 32D/ITD cells or FLT3-ITD-expressing human leukemic MV4-11 cells. GDC-0941 or MK-2206 induced dephosphorylation of 4EBP1 more conspicuously in 32D/TKD than in 32D/ITD, which was prevented or augmented by STAT5A1*6 or pimozide, respectively, and correlated with downregulation of the eIF4E/eIF4G complex formation and Mcl-1 expression. Furthermore, exogenous expression of Mcl-1 endowed resistance to GDC-0941 and MK-2206 on 32D/TKD cells. Finally, it was confirmed in primary AML cells with FLT3-ITD that pimozide enhanced 4EBP1 dephosphorylation and Mcl-1 downregulation to augment cytotoxicity of GDC-0941. These data suggest that the robust STAT5 activation by FLT3-ITD protects cells treated with the PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitors from apoptosis by maintaining Mcl-1 expression through the mTORC1/4EBP1/eIF4E pathway.

Project description:Fusions of the tyrosine kinase domain of JAK2 with multiple partners occur in leukemia/lymphoma where they reportedly promote JAK2-oligomerization and autonomous signalling, Affected entities are promising candidates for therapy with JAK2 signalling inhibitors. While JAK2-translocations occur in myeloid, B-cell and T-cell lymphoid neoplasms, our findings suggest their incidence among the last group is low. Here we describe the genomic, transcriptional and signalling characteristics of PCM1-JAK2 formed by t(8;9)(p22;p24) in a trio of cell lines established at indolent (MAC-1) and aggressive (MAC-2A/2B) phases of a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). To investigate signalling, PCM1-JAK2 was subjected to lentiviral knockdown which inhibited 7 top upregulated genes in t(8;9) cells, notably SOCS2/3. SOCS3, but not SOCS2, was also upregulated in a chronic eosinophilic leukemia bearing PCM1-JAK2, highlighting its role as a central signalling target of JAK2 translocation neoplasia. Conversely, expression of GATA3, a key T-cell developmental gene silenced in aggressive lymphoma cells, was partially restored by PCM1-JAK2 knockdown. Treatment with a selective JAK2 inhibitor (TG101348) to which MAC-1/2A/2B cells were conspicuously sensitive confirmed knockdown results and highlighted JAK2 as the active moiety. PCM1-JAK2 signalling required pSTAT5, supporting a general paradigm of STAT5 activation by JAK2 alterations in lymphoid malignancies. MAC-1/2A/2B--the first JAK2-translocation leukemia/lymphoma cell lines described--display conspicuous JAK/STAT signalling accompanied by T-cell developmental and autoimmune disease gene expression signatures, confirming their fitness as CTCL disease models. Our data support further investigation of SOCS2/3 as signalling effectors, prognostic indicators and potential therapeutic targets in cancers with JAK2 rearrangements.
