Reticulocalbin 1 is required for proliferation and migration of non-small cell lung cancer cells regulated by osteoblast-conditioned medium.

ABSTRACT: Reticulocalbin1 (RCN1) is implicated in tumorigenesis and tumour progression. However, whether RCN1-mediated bone metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells was elusive. Here, we assessed the effect of osteoblast-conditioned medium (CM) on proliferation and migration of NSCLC cell line, NCI-H1299 and NCI-H460 cells, and identified the soluble mediators in CMs from osteoblasts and NSCLC cells using MTT, Clonogenicity, Transwell, wound healing, RT-PCR, and Western blotting assays, and LC-MS/MS analysis, respectively. Furthermore, the role of RCN1 was investigated in NSCLC cells cultured with or without osteoblast-CM. Tumour growth and bone resorption were measured in a nude mouse model bearing NCI-H1299 cells transduced with shRNA/RCN1 vector using in vivo imaging technique and micro-CT. The results showed that RCN1 with a higher abundance in osteoblast-CM, which was present in extracellular vesicles (EVs), enhanced RCN1 expression in NSCLC cells. Osteoblast-CM partially offset the inhibitory effect of RCN1 depletion on proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells. RCN1 depletion-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress caused by increasing GRP78, CHOP, IRE1α, p-IRE1α, p-PERK and p-JNK, which was positively regulated by self-induced autophagy, contributed to suppression of proliferation and migration in NCI-H1299 cells. Therefore, osteoblasts produced RCN1 to transfer into NSCLC cells partially through EVs, facilitating proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells via blocking ER stress. RCN1 could be required for proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells regulated by osteoblast-CM.

Project description:Background:Immunity and inflammation are considered to be central features of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH), in which macrophages are one of the main components of inflammatory cell infiltration around the pulmonary artery. M2b macrophages, which are different from M1 and M2 macrophages, are believed to have immunomodulatory activities and produce little fibrosis. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of M2b macrophages on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) derived from monocrotaline-induced PAH rats. Methods:PASMCs were cultured in serum-free medium, the supernatant of M0 macrophages, or the supernatant of M2b macrophages for 24 hours. Then cell proliferation was assessed by cell counting kit-8 and cell migration ability was detected by wound healing and transwell assays. The apoptosis rate of cells was determined by TUNEL staining and annexin V-PE/7-ADD staining. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2 family proteins, cleaved caspase-9 and PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a pathway. LY294002 (a specific inhibitor of PI3K) was used to investigate its effect on PASMCs and its relationship with M2b macrophages. Results:Conditioned medium from M2b macrophages significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of PASMCs compared with the control group and M0 macrophage group. Furthermore, conditioned medium from M2b macrophages promote PASMC apoptosis and increased the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and cleaved caspase-9, inhibited the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl. Finally, conditioned medium from M2b macrophages inhibited the PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a pathway. Inhibition of PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a pathway also significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis resistance of PASMCs. Conclusion:Conditioned medium from M2b macrophages can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis resistance of PASMCs, which may be at least partially by deregulating the PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a pathway.

Project description:BackgroundThe function of a new long non-coding RNA linc00673 remains unclear. While identified as an oncogenic player in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), linc00673 was found to be anti-oncogenic in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However whether linc00673 regulated malignancy and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) has not been characterized.MethodsCell proliferation was assessed using CCK-8 and EdU assays, and cell migration and invasion were assessed using scratch assays and transwell invasion assays. Epithelial mesenchymal transition was examined using western blot, qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining. Interaction between miRNA and linc00673 was determined using luciferase reporter assays. In vivo experiments were performed to assess tumor formation. In addition, the expression data of NSCLC specimens of TCGA and patient survival data were utilized to explore the prognostic significance of linc00673.ResultsIn the present study, we found high linc00673 expression was associated with poor prognosis of NSCLC patients. In vitro experiments showed linc00673 knockdown reversed TGF-? induced EMT, and miR-150-5p was predicted to target linc00673 through bioinformatics tools. Overexpression of miR-150-5p suppressed lin00673's expression while inhibition of miR-150-5p led to significant upregulation of lin00673, suggesting that linc00673 could be negatively regulated by miR-150-5p, which was further confirmed by the inverse correlation between linc00673 and miR-150-5p in NSCLC patients' specimen. Furthermore, we proved that miR-150-5p could directly target linc00673 through luciferase assay, so linc00673 could sponge miR-150-5p and modulate the expression of a key EMT regulator ZEB1 indirectly. In addition, miR-150-5p inhibition abrogated linc00673 silence mediated proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT suppressing effect. Moreover, the inhibition of linc00673 significantly attenuated the tumorigenesis ability of A549 cells in vivo.ConclusionsWe validated linc00673 as a novel oncogenic lncRNA and demonstrated the molecular mechanism by which it promotes NSCLC, which will advance our understanding of its clinical significance.

Project description:ObjectiveC1QTNF6 has been implicated as an essential component in multiple cellular and molecular preliminary event, including inflammation, glucose metabolism, endothelial cell modulation and carcinogenesis. However, the biological process and potential mechanism of C1QTNF6 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) are indefinite and remain to be elucidated. Therefore, we investigated the interaction among the traits of C1QTNF6 and LUAD pathologic process.MethodsRT-qPCR and western blot were conducted to determine the expression levels of C1QTNF6. RNA interference and overexpression of C1QTNF6 were constructed to identify the biological function of C1QTNF6 in cellular proliferative, migratory and invasive potentials in vitro. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was applied to identify the possible interaction between C1QTNF6 and miR-29a-3p. Moreover, RNA sequencing analysis of C1QTNF6 knockdown was performed to identify the potential regulatory pathways.ResultsC1QTNF6 was upregulated in stage I LUAD tissues compared with adjacent non-cancerous tissues. Concurrently, C1QTNF6 knockdown could remarkably inhibit cell proliferation, migratory and invasive abilities, while overexpression of C1QTNF6 presented opposite results. Additionally, miR-29a-3p may serve as an upstream regulator of C1QTNF6 and reduce the expression of C1QTNF6. Subsequent experiments showed that miR-29a-3p could decrease the cell mobility and proliferation positive cell rates, as well as reduce the migratory and invasive possibilities in LUAD cells via downregulating C1QTNF6. Moreover, RNA sequencing analysis demonstrated that the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway may participate in the process of C1QTNF6 regulating tumor progression.ConclusionOur study first demonstrated that downregulation of C1QTNF6 could inhibit tumorigenesis and progression in LUAD cells negatively regulated by miR-29a-3p. These consequences could reinforce our awareness and understanding of the underlying mechanism and provide a promising therapeutic target for LUAD.

Project description:BackgroundThe critical challenge in tissue engineering is to establish an optimal combination of stem cells, signaling morphogenetic molecules, and extracellular matrix scaffold/microenvironment. The extracellular matrix components of teeth may be reconstituted as an inductive microenvironment in an ectopic tooth transplantation bioassay. Thus, the isolation and identification of the chemical components of the inductive microenvironment in pulp/dentin regeneration will accelerate progress towards the goal of tissue engineering of the tooth.MethodsThe teeth demineralized in 0.6 M hydrochloric acid were sequentially extracted by 4.0 M guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl), pH 7.4, and 0.5 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), pH 7.4. The extracted teeth were transplanted into an ectopic site in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice with mobilized dental pulp stem cells (MDPSCs). The unextracted tooth served as a positive control. Furthermore, the soluble components for the inductive microenvironment, the GdnHCl extracts, or the EDTA extracts together with or without MDPSC conditioned medium (CM) were reconstituted systematically with autoclaved teeth in which the chemical components were completely inactivated and only the physical microenvironment was preserved. Their pulp/dentin regenerative potential and angiogenic potential were compared 28 days after ectopic tooth transplantation by histomorphometry and real-time RT-PCR analysis.ResultsExpression of an odontoblastic marker, enamelysin, and a pulp marker, thyrotropin-releasing hormone degrading enzyme (TRH-DE), was lower, and expression of a periodontal cell marker, anti-asporin/periodontal ligament-associated protein 1 (PLAP-1), was higher in the transplant of the EDTA-extracted teeth compared with the GdnHCl-extracted teeth. The autoclaved teeth reconstituted with the GdnHCl extracts or the EDTA extracts have weak regenerative potential and minimal angiogenic potential, and the CM significantly increased this potential. Combinatorial effects of the EDTA extracts and the CM on pulp/dentin regeneration were demonstrated in vivo, consistent with their in-vitro effects on enhanced proliferation, migration, and odontoblastic differentiation.ConclusionsThe EDTA-extracted teeth demonstrated significantly lower pulp/dentin regenerative potential compared with the GdnHCl-extracted teeth. The EDTA soluble chemical components when reconstituted with the physical structure of autoclaved teeth serve as an inductive microenvironment for pulp/dentin regeneration, promoting cell proliferation, migration, and odontoblastic differentiation.
