Downregulation of 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase by interleukin-1? from activated macrophages leads to poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer.

ABSTRACT: Chronic inflammation has a crucial role in cancer development and the progression of various tumors, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The arachidonate cascade is a major inflammatory pathway that produces several metabolites, such as prostaglandin E2. The enzyme 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) degrades prostaglandin and is frequently decreased in several types of cancer; however, the molecular mechanisms of 15-PGDH suppression are unclear. The current study was carried out to elucidate the molecular mechanisms and clinical significance of 15-PGDH suppression in PDAC. Here, we showed that interleukin-1? (IL-1?), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, downregulates 15-PGDH expression in PDAC cells, and that IL-1? expression was inversely correlated with 15-PGDH levels in frozen PDAC tissues. We also found that activated macrophages produced IL-1? and reduced 15-PGDH expression in PDAC cells. Furthermore, the number of CD163-positive tumor-associated macrophages was shown to be inversely correlated with 15-PGDH levels in PDAC cells by immunohistochemical staining of 107 PDAC samples. Finally, we found that low 15-PGDH expression was significantly associated with advanced tumors, presence of lymph node metastasis and nerve invasion, and poor prognosis in PDAC patients. Our results indicate that IL-1? derived from TAMs suppresses 15-PGDH expression in PDAC cells, resulting in poor prognosis of PDAC patients.

Project description:The NAD+-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) catalyzes the oxidation of the 15(S)-hydroxyl group of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), converting the pro-inflammatory PGE2 to the anti-inflammatory 15-keto-PGE2 (an endogenous ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma [PPAR-γ]). To evaluate the significance of 15-PGDH/15-keto-PGE2 cascade in liver inflammation and tissue injury, we generated transgenic mice with targeted expression of 15-PGDH in the liver (15-PGDH Tg) and the animals were subjected to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Galactosamine (GalN)-induced acute liver inflammation and injury. Compared to the wild type mice, the 15-PGDH Tg mice showed lower levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), less liver tissue damage, less hepatic apoptosis/necrosis, less macrophage activation, and lower inflammatory cytokine production. In cultured Kupffer cells, treatment with 15-keto-PGE2 or the conditioned medium (CM) from 15-PGDH Tg hepatocyes inhibited LPS-induced cytokine production, in vitro. Both 15-keto-PGE2 and the CM from15-PGDH Tg hepatocyes also up-regulated the expression of PPAR-γ downstream genes in Kupffer cells. In cultured hepatocytes, 15-keto-PGE2 treatment or 15-PGDH overexpression did not influence TNF-α-induced hepatocyte apoptosis. These findings suggest that 15-PGDH protects against LPS/GalN-induced liver injury and the effect is mediated via 15-keto-PGE2, which activates PPAR-γ in Kupffer cells and thus inhibits their ability to produce inflammatory cytokines. Accordingly, we observed that the PPAR-γ antagonist, GW9662, reversed the effect of 15-keto-PGE2 in Kupffer cell in vitro and restored the susceptibility of 15-PGDH Tg mice to LPS/GalN-induced acute liver injury in vivo. Collectively, our findings suggest that 15-PGDH-derived 15-keto-PGE2 from hepatocytes is able to activate PPAR-γ and inhibit inflammatory cytokine production in Kupffer cells and that this paracrine mechanism negatively regulates LPS-induced necro-inflammatory response in the liver. Therefore, induction of 15-PGDH expression or utilization of 15-keto-PGE2 analogue may have therapeutic benefits for the treatment of endotoxin-associated liver inflammation/injury.

Project description:ObjectiveColorectal cancer (CRC) is globally one of the most often diagnosed cancers with high mortality rates. This study aimed to explore novel biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of CRC.MethodsWe collected 4 datasets about CRC in GEO and sought differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with GEO2R. Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 19 (LRRC19) expression was assessed through the Oncomine and TIMER database analyses, which was further confirmed by qRT-PCR of CRC samples. We used online survival analysis tools (GEPIA, PrognoScan, and Kaplan-Meier plotter) to examine the prognostic value of LRRC19 in CRC and other malignancies. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were employed to explore the biological functions of LRRC19. Finally, we conducted network prediction by STRING and further validation on the GEPIA to discover other molecules that might interact with LRRC19.ResultsA total of 21 upregulated and 46 downregulated DEGs were identified from the 4 datasets. The TIMER and Oncomine online analyses showed lower mRNA of LRRC19 in CRC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, which was validated by qRT-PCR in CRC patient samples. The survival analysis through the GEPIA and PrognoScan websites revealed that low LRRC19 expression was significantly correlated with poor prognosis in CRC patients. The Kaplan-Meier plotter survival analysis indicated that low LRRC19 expression was significantly associated with the disease progression of patients with ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer. The enrichment analysis suggested that low expression of LRRC19 could be involved in the retinol metabolism and the zymogen granule membrane. Through STRING and GEPIA, it was found that LRRC19 is clearly associated with ZCCHC10, MOB3B, IMMP2L, and TRMT11.ConclusionLRRC19 mRNA was prominently decreased in human CRC tissues and was significantly associated with shorter survival in CRC patients. LRRC19 might serve as a possible target for early diagnosis and prognosis assessment in CRC.
