MiRNA-7062-5p Promoting Bone Resorption After Bone Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer Through Inhibiting GPR65.

ABSTRACT: Bone metastasis is positively associated with a poor prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC always leads to osteolytic change, which is regulated by aberrant activation of osteoclasts. MicroRNAs are remarkedly involved in metastasis of CRC; however, their role in bone metastasis of CRC is still unclear. The aim of this study is to find key microRNAs that are critical to bone resorption in bone metastasis of CRC. In this study, bone metastasis model was established through intratibially injecting CT-26 cells or MC-38 cells. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining was performed to explore the osteoclastogenesis of primary early osteoclast precursors (OCPs) after stimulation by CT-26 conditioned medium (CM). Then, microarray assay was performed to find differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs. The target gene of miRNA was confirmed by dual-luciferase analysis. The effect of miRNA, its target gene on osteoclastogenesis, and involved pathways were explored by Western blot, immunofluorescence analysis, and TRAP staining. Finally, the effect of miRNA on bone resorption in vivo was observed. miRNA-7062-5p was upregulated in early OCPs cultured in CT-26 CM or MC-38 CM. GPR65 was proven to be the target gene of miRNA-7062-5p. Overexpression of GPR65 can rescue the osteoclastogenesis caused by miRNA-7062-5p through activation of AMPK pathway. Local injection of miRNA-7062-5p inhibitors efficiently improved the bone resorption. Our study found the role of miRNA-7062-5p in regulating osteoclast formation, and our findings provided a potential therapeutic target in treatment of bone metastasis of CRC.

ULK1 Suppresses Osteoclast Differentiation and Bone Resorption via Inhibiting Syk-JNK through DOK3.

Project description:Bone resorption diseases, including osteoporosis, are usually caused by excessive osteoclastogenesis. Unc-51-like autophagy activating kinase 1 (ULK1), a mammalian serine/threonine kinase, may participate in the regulation of bone homeostasis and osteolytic metastasis. In this study, ULK1 expression during osteoclastogenesis was detected with RT-PCR. We knocked down or overexpressed ULK1 through siRNA or lentiviral transduction in bone marrow macrophage (BMM). TRAP and phalloidin staining were performed to detect the osteoclastogenesis activity. Ovariectomized (OVX) mouse model of osteoporosis and a mouse of model osteoclast-induced bone resorption were applied to explore the role of ULK1 in bone resorption in vivo. The results showed that ULK1 expression was downregulated during osteoclast differentiation and was clinically associated with osteoporosis. ULK1 inhibited osteoclast differentiation in vitro. Knockdown of ULK1 expression activated phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk). Docking protein 3 (DOK3) was coexpressed with ULK1 during osteoclastogenesis. Downregulation of DOK3 offsets the effect of ULK1 on osteoclastogenesis and induced phosphorylation of JNK and Syk. Activation of ULK1 impeded bone loss in OVX mice with osteoporosis. Additionally, upregulation of ULK1 inhibited osteoclast-induced bone resorption in vivo. Therefore, our study reveals a novel ULK1/DOK3/Syk axis that regulates osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption, and targeting ULK1 is a potential therapeutic strategy for osteoporosis.

MiRNA-202-5p promotes Colorectal Carcinogenesis through suppression of PTEN.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is still one of the leading causes of cancer-associated death in the modern society. The biological function of miR-202-5p for CRC development remains controversial, largely due to the fact that miR-202-5p can be tumor-suppressive or oncogenic in different contexts. Obtained results indicated that aberrant expression of miR-202-5p was observed in majority of human CRC samples and miR-202-5p was transcriptionally up-regulated by c-Myc. In addition, miR-202-5p functions to promote the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway by directly suppressing PTEN. Silencing or enforced expression of miR-202-5p resulted in CRC cell proliferation inhibition and enhancement, respectively. Importantly, decreased PTEN level and increased phosphorylation of Akt were frequently associated with elevated miR-202-5p expression in colorectal cancer tissues. Increased miR-202-5p expression may serve as a tumor promoter by directly targeting PTEN in colorectal cancer.

miRNA-99b-5p suppresses liver metastasis of colorectal cancer by down-regulating mTOR.

Project description:Liver metastasis is common in patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC), and is also correlated with poor outcome. In this study we screened the different expression profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) on the development of liver metastasis in CRC patients. miR-99b-5p was found to be more than 6-fold higher in primary tumors than in matched liver metastases (P = 0.007). Expression of miR-99b-5p in primary tumors of patients with stage III CRC without liver metastases was higher than in CRC patients with liver metastases (P = 0.028). Up-regulated miR-99b-5p was associated with longer overall survival (P = 0.01). Besides, miR-99b-5p silencing in miR-99b-5p-positive CRC cell lines promoted cell migration and up-regulated mTOR, and vice versa. In addition, luciferase assays demonstrated that miR-99b-5p functioned as a tumor suppressor by targeting mTOR. Taken together, our results demonstrate thatmiR-99b-5p is differently expressed in primary CRC and liver metastasis and functions as a tumor-suppressive microRNA in metastatic CRC. The miR-99b-5p-mTOR axis may serve as a prognostic factor and therapeutic target for anti-metastatic therapy in CRC patients.

Cepharanthine Prevents Estrogen Deficiency-Induced Bone Loss by Inhibiting Bone Resorption.

Project description:Osteoporosis is a common health problem worldwide caused by an imbalance of bone formation vs. bone resorption. However, current therapeutic approaches aimed at enhancing bone formation or suppressing bone resorption still have some limitations. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that cepharanthine (CEP, derived from Stephania cepharantha Hayata) exerted a protective effect on estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss. This protective effect was confirmed to be achieved through inhibition of bone resorption in vivo, rather than through enhancement of bone formation in vivo. Furthermore, the in vitro study revealed that CEP attenuated receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast formation, and suppressed bone resorption by impairing the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT signaling pathways. The inhibitory effect of CEP could be partly reversed by treatment with anisomycin (a JNK and p38 agonist) and/or SC79 (an AKT agonist) in vitro. Our results thus indicated that CEP could prevent estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. Hence, CEP might be a novel therapeutic agent for anti-osteoporosis therapy.

Deficiency of <i>ATP6V1H</i> Causes Bone Loss by Inhibiting Bone Resorption and Bone Formation through the TGF-β1 Pathway.

Project description:Vacuolar-type H +-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a highly conserved, ancient enzyme that couples the energy of ATP hydrolysis to proton transport across vesicular and plasma membranes of eukaryotic cells. Previously reported mutations of various V-ATPase subunits are associated with increased bone density. We now show that haploinsufficiency for the H subunit of the V1 domain (ATP6V1H) is associated with osteoporosis in humans and mice. A genome-wide SNP array analysis of 1625 Han Chinese found that 4 of 15 tag SNPs (26.7%) within ATP6V1H were significantly associated with low spine bone mineral density. Atp6v1h+/- knockout mice generated by the CRISPR/Cas9 technique had decreased bone remodeling and a net bone matrix loss. Atp6v1h+/- osteoclasts showed impaired bone formation and increased bone resorption. The increased intracellular pH of Atp6v1h+/- osteoclasts downregulated TGF-β1 activation, thereby reducing induction of osteoblast formation but the bone mineralization was not altered. However, bone formation was reduced more than bone resorption. Our data provide evidence that partial loss of ATP6V1H function results in osteoporosis/osteopenia. We propose that defective osteoclast formation triggers impaired bone formation by altering bone remodeling. In the future, ATP6V1H might, therefore, serve as a target for the therapy of osteoporosis.

The loss of Cbl-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase interaction perturbs RANKL-mediated signaling, inhibiting bone resorption and promoting osteoclast survival.

Project description:Cbl is an adaptor protein and an E3 ligase that plays both positive and negative roles in several signaling pathways that affect various cellular functions. Tyrosine 737 is unique to Cbl and is phosphorylated by Syk and Src family kinases. Phosphorylated Cbl Tyr(737) creates a binding site for the p85 regulatory subunit of PI3K, which also plays an important role in the regulation of bone resorption by osteoclasts. To investigate the role of Cbl-PI3K interaction in bone homeostasis, we examined the knock-in mice (Cbl(YF/YF)) in which the PI3K binding site in Cbl is ablated due to the mutation in the regulatory tyrosine. We report that in Cbl(YF/YF) mice, despite increased numbers of osteoclasts, bone volume is increased due to defective osteoclast function. Additionally, in ex vivo cultures, mature Cbl(YF/YF) osteoclasts showed an increased ability to survive in the presence of RANKL due to delayed onset of apoptosis. RANKL-mediated signaling is perturbed in Cbl(YF/YF) osteoclasts, and most interestingly, AKT phosphorylation is up-regulated, suggesting that the lack of PI3K sequestration by Cbl results in increased survival and decreased bone resorption. Cumulatively, these in vivo and in vitro results show that, on one hand, binding of Cbl to PI3K negatively regulates osteoclast differentiation, survival, and signaling events (e.g. AKT phosphorylation), whereas on the other hand it positively influences osteoclast function.

Eribulin mesylate induces bone mass loss by promoting osteoclastic bone resorption in mice

Project description:Over the past few decades, the clinical outcomes of patients with cancer have significantly improved mostly owing to the development of effective chemotherapeutic treatments. However, chronic health conditions such as bone mass loss and risk of fragility fractures caused by chemotherapy have also emerged as crucial issues in patients treated for cancer. In this study, we aimed to understand the effect of eribulin mesylate (ERI), a microtubule-targeting agent currently used to treat metastatic breast cancer and certain subtypes of advanced sarcomas, on bone metabolism in mice. The administration of ERI reduced bone mass in mice, mainly by promoting osteoclast activity. Gene expression analysis of skeletal tissues revealed no change in the expression levels of the transcripts for RANK ligand, one of the master regulators of osteoclastogenesis; however, the transcript levels of osteoprotegerin, which neutralizes RANK ligand, were significantly reduced in ERI-treated mice compared with those in vehicle-treated controls, indicating a relative increase in RANK ligand availability after ERI treatment. In line with the increased bone resorption in ERI-treated mice, we found that zoledronate administration effectively suppressed bone loss in these mice. These results reveal a previously unrecognized effect of ERI on bone metabolism and suggest the application of bisphosphonates for patients with cancer undergoing treatment with ERI. Highlights • Eribulin administration led to bone mass loss in mice.• Eribulin-induced bone loss was not secondary to malnutrition or hypogonadism.• Eribulin promoted bone resorption but had little impact on bone formation.• The expression of osteoprotegerin transcripts was reduced in Eribulin-treated mice.• A single administration of Zoledronate completely suppressed bone mass loss induced by Eribulin.

The Dibenzyl Isoquinoline Alkaloid Berbamine Ameliorates Osteoporosis by Inhibiting Bone Resorption.

Project description:Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a kind of primary osteoporosis that is characterized by decreased bone density and strength. Berbamine is a nonbasic quaternary benzylisoquinoline plant alkaloid that has been widely used in the clinic to treat leukopenia in China. We found that berbamine inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) in vitro, which mainly occurred in the middle phase and late phase. The gene and protein expression levels of osteoclast-related molecules, including CTSK, MMP-9, NFATc1, CD44 and DC-STAMP, were also downregulated by berbamine. In vivo, we treated PMOP mice with berbamine for 8 weeks and found that the extent of osteoporosis was alleviated significantly according to micro-CT scanning, hematoxylin-eosin staining, DC-STAMP immunohistochemical staining and TRAP immunohistochemical staining in the distal femurs of the mice. Our findings demonstrate that berbamine has an inhibitory effect on the osteoclastogenesis of BMMs and can prevent bone loss after ovariectomy in vivo. This study provides evidence that berbamine is a potential drug for the prevention and treatment of PMOP.

Exosome-transmitted miRNA-335-5p promotes colorectal cancer invasion and metastasis by facilitating EMT via targeting RASA1.

Project description:Exosomal microRNA (miRNA) secretion has been characterized as a vital factor in intercellular communication among cancer cells. However, little is known about cancer-secreted miRNAs specifically involved in metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we found that exosomes derived from metastatic CRC cell line SW620 promoted migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of CRC cells. The profiling of exosome miRNAs revealed that microRNA (miR)-335-5p was highly expressed in exosomes from metastatic SW620 cells compared to those derived from primary SW480 cells. miR-335-5p was transmitted from metastatic SW620 cells to CRC cells via exosomes and promoted migration, invasion, and EMT of CRC cells. Moreover, exosome-transmitted miRNA-335-5p promotes CRC cell invasion and metastasis by facilitating EMT via targeting RAS p21 protein activator 1 (RASA1). Overexpression of RASA1 abolished the promotive effects of exosomal miR-335-5p on CRC cell migration, invasion, and EMT. Collectively, our data revealed that exosomal miR-335-5p derived from metastatic CRC cells promotes CRC cell invasion and metastasis by facilitating EMT via targeting RASA1, which may serve as a potential therapeutic target for CRC metastasis.
