Project description:Melanoma growth is driven by malignant melanoma initiating cells (MMIC) identified by expression of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) member, ABCB5. ABCB5+ melanoma subpopulations have been shown to overexpress the vasculogenic differentiation markers CD144 (VE-cadherin) and TIE-1 and are associated with CD31-negative vasculogenic mimicry (VM), an established biomarker associated with increased patient mortality. Here we identify a critical role for VEGFR-1 signaling in ABCB5+ MMIC-dependent VM and tumor growth. Global gene expression analyses, validated by mRNA and protein determinations, revealed preferential expression of VEGFR-1 on ABCB5+ tumor cells purified from clinical melanomas and established melanoma lines. In vitro, VEGF induced in a VEGFR-1-dependent manner expression of CD144 in ABCB5+ subpopulations that constitutively expressed VEGFR-1, but not in ABCB5- bulk populations that were predominantly VEGFR-1-negative. In vivo, melanomaspecific shRNA-mediated knockdown of VEGFR-1 blocked the development of ABCB5+ VM morphology and inhibited ABCB5+ VM-associated production of the secreted melanoma mitogen, laminin. Moreover, melanoma-specific VEGFR-1 knockdown markedly inhibited tumor growth (by >90%). Our results demonstrate that VEGFR-1 function in MMIC regulates VM and associated laminin production, and show that this function represents one mechanism through which MMIC promote tumor growth. Microarray analyses were performed on purified ABCB5+ (n=5) and ABCB5- (n=5) cell subsets derived from the established human melanoma cell lines G3361 and A375 and from three distinct clinical melanoma specimen. Total RNA was extracted, processed and hybridized onto Affymetrix human HG-U133Plus2 GeneChip microarrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA).

Project description:Erianin has been reported to play key roles in suppressing a wide variety of tumors. Howbeit, the mechanism underlying the erianin in anti-carcinogenesis remains to be fully addressed. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was detected to determine the influence of erianin on melanoma in vitro. Subcutaneous xenografts were established to observe the effect of erianin on the proliferation of melanoma cells in vivo. Transcriptome screening was performed to identify the meaningful target. Molecular docking and western blot were performed to verified the GSK3α-NF-κB cascade reaction. We reported the finding of Erianin as an efficient inhibitor of melanoma. Erianin selectively inhibited the growth of melanoma cells, rather than normal human melanocyte cell line. Specifically, erianin downregulated the cellular GSK3α-NF-κB pathway to induce melanoma cell apoptosis. Collectively, we initially proved that erianin inhibited melanoma effectively, which was caused by inactivation of GSK3α-NF-κB signaling inducing melanoma cells apoptosis. Thus, the study implies that erianin provides a novel therapeutic strategy for melanoma therapy.

Abstract:
Recent experiments indicate that CD4+ Th2 cells can reject skin tumors in mice, while CD4+ Th1 cells cannot (Mattes et al., 2003; Zhang et al., 2009). These results are surprising because CD4+ Th1 cells are typically considered to be capable of tumor rejection. We used mathematical models to investigate this unexpected outcome. We found that neither CD4+ Th1 nor CD4+ Th2 cells could eliminate the cancer cells when acting alone, but that tumor elimination could be induced by recruitment of eosinophils by the Th2 cells. These recruited eosinophils had unexpected indirect effects on the decay rate of type 2 cytokines and the rate at which Th2 cells are inactivated through interactions with cancer cells. Strikingly, the presence of eosinophils impacted tumor growth more significantly than the release of tumor-suppressing cytokines such as IFN-g and TNF-a. Our simulations suggest that novel strategies to enhance eosinophil recruitment into skin tumors may improve cancer immunotherapies.

Project description:IGFBP5, a critical regulators of insulin-like growth factors, has been reported to be involved in many kinds of carcinogenesis and cancer metastases. The role of IGFBP5 in human malignant melanoma (MM), however, remains largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that IGFBP5 was aberrantly expressed in human melanoma cells and cancer tissues. Overexpression of IGFBP5 dramatically inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of human melanoma cells, whereas knockdown of IGFBP5 by shRNA resulted in the opposite effects, enhanced the cell proliferation, migration and metastasis. In addition, IGFBP5 overexpression suppressed the growth and metastasis of melanoma xenograft tumor in vivo and IGFBP5 overexpression inhibited epithelialâmesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype and stem cell property of tumor cell, with decreased expression of HIF1α, E-cadherin and stem cell markers NANOG, SOX2, OCT4, KLF4 and CD133. Moreover, IGFBP5 exhibited its growth inhibitory activity through inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated Kinase (ERK) and P38-MAPK signaling pathway. Taken together, our findings indicate that IGFBP5 acts as tumor suppressor roles in MM through the modulation of ERK1/2 and P38-MAPK signaling pathway as well as EMT procession and cell stemness, suggesting IGFBP5 as a novel target for human melanoma diagnosis and therapy. mRNA profiles of IGFBP5 over expression (OE) in A375 and A375 cell line were generated using Ion torrent

Project description:We report that miR-211 loss-of-function in the pigmented melanoma cell line SKMEL-28 slowed growth and invasion in vitro, inhibited phosphoinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) signaling, rendered these melanoma cells metabolically vulnerable by attenuating mitochondrial respiration and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycling and inhibited melanoma growth in vivo.

Project description:Functional crosstalk between organelles is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Individually, dysfunction of both endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria have been linked to cellular and organismal aging, but little is known about how mechanisms of inter-organelle communication might be targeted to extended longevity. The metazoan unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains ER health through a variety of mechanisms beyond its canonical role in proteostasis, including calcium storage and lipid metabolism. Here we provide evidence that in C. elegans, inhibition of the conserved UPR mediator, activating transcription factor (atf)-6 increases lifespan via modulation of calcium homeostasis and signaling to the mitochondria. Loss of atf-6 confers long life via downregulation of the ER calcium buffering protein, calreticulin. Function of the ER calcium release channel, the inositol triphosphate receptor (IP3R/itr-1), is required for atf-6 mutant longevity while a gain-of-function IP3R/itr-1 mutation is sufficient to extend lifespan. IP3R dysfunction leads to altered mitochondrial behavior and hyperfused morphology, which is sufficient to suppress long life in atf-6 mutants. Highlighting a novel and direct role for this inter-organelle coordination of calcium in longevity, the mitochondrial calcium import channel, mcu-1, is also required for atf-6 mutant longevity. Altogether this study reveals the importance of organellar coordination of calcium handling in determining the quality of aging, and highlights calcium homeostasis as a critical output for the UPR and atf-6 in particular.

Project description:microRNA-7-5p (miR-7-5p) is an established tumor suppressor in multiple cancer types and inhibits growth and invasion by suppressing expression and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway. While melanoma is not typically driven by EGFR signaling, expression of miR-7-5p is reduced in metastatic tumors compared to primary melanoma. Here, we investigated the biological and clinical significance of miR-7-5p in melanoma. Our results showed that augmenting miR-7-5p expression in vitro markedly reduced tumor cell viability, colony formation and induced cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, ectopic expression of miR-7-5p reduced migration and invasion of melanoma cells in vitro and reduced melanoma lung colonizationmetastasis in vivo. To investigate the mechanism underlying this effect, we used cDNA microarray analysis to identify a subset of putative miR-7-5p target genes associated with melanoma and metastasis. Of these, we confirmed nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) subunit RelA, as a novel direct target of miR-7-5p in melanoma cells, such that miR-7-5p suppresses NF-κB activity to decrease expression of canonical NF-κB target genes, including IL-1a, IL-6 and IL-8. Importantly, the effects of miR-7-5p on melanoma cell growth, cell cycle, migration and invasion were recapitulated by RelA knockdown. Finally, analysis of gene array datasets from multiple melanoma patient cohorts revealed an association between elevated RelA expression and poor survival, further emphasizing the clinical significance of RelA and its downstream signaling effectors.. Taken together, our data suggest that miR-7-5p replacement therapy might have clinical utility in melanoma to inhibit the metastatic process, in part through its inactivation of RelA/NF-kB signaling. Total RNA was extracted from WM266-4 cells transfected with miR-NC or miR-7-5p precursor molecules (30 nM) for 24 h, using Qiazol reagent (Qiagen).
