Project description:ObjectiveGastric cancer (GC), a malignant tumor of the gastric mucosa, is the second leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Although the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer have been reduced in the US and elsewhere, it is still a major public health concern. In this study, we attempted to investigate the function of tripartite motif-containing protein 37 (TRIM37) in GC cell lines in order to propose a new therapy for GC.MethodsThe expression of TRIM37 in GC patients and cell lines was detected by immunohistochemistry, real-time PCR and Western blotting analysis. After TRIM37 knockdown or overexpression, the cell cycle, proliferation and apoptosis, as well as the expression of related proteins, were detected. In addition, in vivo experiments on nude mice were performed.ResultsWe found that TRIM37 expression was significantly elevated in tumor tissues of GC patients and GC cell lines, and patients with high expression of TRIM37 had a poor prognosis. Knockdown of TRIM37 in GC cells significantly inhibited cell proliferation and cell cycle progression, promoted apoptosis, increased cleaved caspase 3 and decreased c-myc and phosphorylation of protein kinase 1/2 (p-ERK1/2). Effects of TRIM37 overexpression were opposite to that of TRIM37 knockdown and were potently attenuated by an ERK1/2 inhibitor. In addition, an ERK1/2 agonist increased TRIM37 and p-ERK1/2 in a dose-dependent manner, and TRIM37 knockdown potently attenuated EGF-induced cell proliferation and expression of TRIM37 and p-ERK1/2. Interestingly, we found that TRIM37 overexpression did not affect the mRNA level of dual-specificity phosphatase 6 (DUSP6), but reduced its protein level in GC cells. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) analyses revealed that TRIM37 interacted with DUSP6, and TRIM37 overexpression enhanced DUSP6 ubiquitination in GC cells. In vivo experiments on nude mice showed the inhibitory effect of TRIM37 knockdown on tumor growth.ConclusionThese findings suggest that TRIM37 may act as an oncogene in the growth of GC cells and illustrate its potential function as a target in the treatment of GC.
