YWHAZ is an Invasion and Metastasis promoting genes of Lung cancer

ABSTRACT: Metastasis is a major cause leading to mortality for lung cancer patients. We identified YWHAZ as a potential metastasis-promoting candidate and found that overexpression of YWHAZ promotes lung cancer cell proliferation, anchorage-independent growth, migration, and invasion in vitro, as well as tumorigenesis and metastasis in vivo. It not only increases cell protrusions and branchings but also induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Most importantly, YWHAZ protein could prevent £]-catenin from ubiquitination via its association with £]-catenin and enhance slug transcriptional activity which is regulated by £]-catenin/TCF signaling pathway. Moreover, YWHAZ expression was higher in tumors than in adjacent normal tissues in 63 Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. NSCLC patients with high YWHAZ expressing tumors had shorter overall survival than those with low-expressing tumors. We conclude that YWHAZ play a critical role in promoting NSCLC metastasis.

YWHAZ is an Invasion and Metastasis promoting genes of Lung cancer

Project description:Metastasis is a major cause leading to mortality for lung cancer patients. We identified YWHAZ as a potential metastasis-promoting candidate and found that overexpression of YWHAZ promotes lung cancer cell proliferation, anchorage-independent growth, migration, and invasion in vitro, as well as tumorigenesis and metastasis in vivo. It not only increases cell protrusions and branchings but also induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Most importantly, YWHAZ protein could prevent Â£]-catenin from ubiquitination via its association with Â£]-catenin and enhance slug transcriptional activity which is regulated by Â£]-catenin/TCF signaling pathway. Moreover, YWHAZ expression was higher in tumors than in adjacent normal tissues in 63 Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. NSCLC patients with high YWHAZ expressing tumors had shorter overall survival than those with low-expressing tumors. We conclude that YWHAZ play a critical role in promoting NSCLC metastasis. In this investigation, we used a lung cancer invasion cell model to identify the genes involved in cancer progression. YWHAZ is a potential oncogene whose expression is correlated to the survival of patients with breast, prostate and liver cancers. However, the role of YWHAZ in lung caner progression has not been reported, particularly in metastasis. Here, YWHAZ was ectopically expressed in lower invasive lung cancer cell line its impact on colonogenesis, migration and invasiveness was assessed. The underlying mechanism was explored by YWHAZ-expressed transfectants and microarrays and the clinical relevance was evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR.

ZNF207-YWHAZ Enhances Breast Cancer Proliferation and Chemotherapy Resistance by Activating the HIF-1alpha-PPARgamma-PKM2 Signaling Axis.

Project description:Hypoxia is closely linked to chemotherapy resistance and accelerates breast cancer progression. However, the underlying mechanism of resistance to hypoxic chemotherapy remains uncertain. ZNF207 was identified as a differentially expressed gene involved in hypoxia and chemotherapy resistance by RNA-sequencing array. ZNF207 expression was elevated in lung, breast, liver, colon, and ovarian cancers, and its positive expression was correlated significantly with advanced TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and poor prognosis. ZNF207 overexpression promoted the proliferation, invasion capabilities, and stemness of breast cancer cells by activating the HIF-1alpha-PPAR-gamma-glycolysis signaling pathway. Notably, ZNF207 was directly bound to the coiled-coil domain of YWHAZ, thereby accelerating HIF-1alpha deacetylation in an HDAC4-dependent manner. Furthermore, ZNF207 might stabilize YWHAZ by inhibiting its degradation via TRIM67 through a ubiquitin-dependent mechanism. ZNF207 overexpression enhanced resistance to doxorubicin and vinorelbine. Conversely, ZNF207-DeltaGLE overexpression disrupted HIF-1alpha-PPAR-gamma-glycolysis signaling and abolished chemotherapy resistance. Additionally, ZNF207 expression was higher in patients with breast cancer who exhibited poor treatment outcomes (Miller/Payne grades 1-2) than in those with more favorable outcomes (Miller/Payne grades 3-5). Sappanchalcone, a specific ZNF207 inhibitor, impedes breast cancer progression while exerting a synergistic effect with chemotherapy. Our findings revealed that ZNF207 expression was elevated in breast cancer under hypoxic conditions, promoting proliferation and invasion by activating HIF-1alpha through accelerated deacetylation in a positive feedback loop. The interaction between ZNF207 and YWHAZ enhances HIF-1alpha stability, ultimately accelerating therapeutic resistance in breast cancer.

TMEM65 promotes gastric tumorigenesis by targeting YWHAZ to activate PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway and is a therapeutic target

Project description:Copy number alterations are crucial for the development of gastric cancer (GC). Here, we identified Transmembrane Protein 65 (TMEM65) amplification by genomic hybridization microarray to profile copy-number variations in GC. TMEM65 mRNA level was significantly up-regulated in GC compared to adjacent normal tissues, and was positively associated with TMEM65 amplification. High TMEM65 expression or DNA copy number predicts poor prognosis in GC. Furtherly, GC patients with TMEM65 amplification or overexpression significantly associated with shortened survival. Ectopic expression of TMEM65 significantly promoted cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and cell migration/invasion ability, but inhibited apoptosis. Conversely, silencing of TMEM65 in GC cells showed opposite abilities on cell function in vitro and suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis in vitro. Moreover, TMEM65 depletion by VNP-encapsulated TMEM65-siRNA significantly suppressed tumor growth in subcutaneous xenograft model. Mechanistically, TMEM65 exerted oncogenic effects through activating PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling pathway, as evidenced of increased expression of key regulators (p-Akt, p-GSK-3β, p-mTOR) by Western blot. YWHAZ (Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase/Tryptophan 5-Monooxygenase) was identified as a direct downstream effector of TMEM65. Direct binding of TMEM65 with YWHAZ in the cytoplasm inhibited ubiquitin-mediated degradation of YWHAZ. Moreover, oncogenic effect of TMEM65 was partly dependent on YWHAZ. In conclusion, TMEM65 promotes gastric tumorigenesis by activating PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling via cooperating with YWHAZ. TMEM65 overexpression may serve as an independent new biomarker and is a therapeutic target in GC.

Downstream genes and pathways of ASH1-miR-375-YWHAZ axis in hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:To explore the mechanism and downstream pathways of ASH1-miR-375-YWHAZ axis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We performed microarray assay to identify the downstream genes of YWHAZ. As a result, we obtained 507 (245 upregulation and 262 downregulation) differentially expressed genes significantly affected by YWHAZ knockdown. Function enrichment analysis showed that these genes were enriched in the “Regulation of actin cytoskeleton” pathway which is related with cell migration and tumor metastasis. We also find that most of the autophagy-associated genes, such as ATG3, ATG5 and ATG7 and EMT related gene E-cadherin were highly correlated with YWHAZ and changed by silencing YWHAZ. Real-time quantitative RT-PCR was performed to verify the microarray results. In conclusion, the expression profile of many genes were significantly affected by YWHAZ knockdown, which helps to further explore the mechanism of the effects of ASH1-miR-375-YWHAZ axis in HCC.

FOXF1 Promotes Tumor Vessel Normalization and Prevents Lung Cancer Progression through FZD4

Project description:Cancer cells re-program normal lung endothelial cells (EC) into tumor-associated endothelial cells (TEC) that form leaky vessels supporting carcinogenesis. Transcriptional regulators that control reprogramming of EC into TEC are poorly understood. We identified Forkhead box F1 (FOXF1) as a critical regulator of EC-to-TEC transition. FOXF1 was highly expressed in normal lung vasculature but was decreased in TEC within non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). Low FOXF1 correlated with poor overall survival of NSCLC patients. In mice, endothelial-specific deletion of FOXF1 decreased pericyte coverage, increased vessel permeability and hypoxia, and promoted lung tumor growth and metastasis. Endothelial-specific over-expression of FOXF1 normalized tumor vessels and inhibited progression of lung cancer. FOXF1-deficiency decreased Wnt/β-catenin signaling in TECs through direct transcriptional activation of Fzd4. Restoring FZD4 expression in FOXF1-deficient TECs through endothelial-specific nanoparticle delivery of Fzd4 cDNA rescued Wnt/β-catenin signaling in TECs, normalized tumor vessels and inhibited progression of lung cancer. Altogether, FOXF1 increases tumor vessel stability, and inhibits lung cancer progression by stimulating FZD4/Wnt/β-catenin signaling in TECs. Nanoparticle delivery of FZD4 cDNA has a promise for future therapies in NSCLC.

Disruption of STAT3 signaling promotes KRAS induced lung tumorigenesis

Project description:Oncogenic STAT3 functions are known in various malignancies. We found that STAT3 plays an unexpected tumor suppressive role in KRAS-mutant non-small-cell-lung cancer (NSCLC). In mice, tissue-specific inactivation of Stat3 resulted in increased Kras (G12D)-driven NSCLC initiation and malignant progression leading to markedly reduced survival. Clinically, low STAT3 expression levels correlate with poor survival in human lung adenocarcinoma patients with smoking history. Consistently, KRAS-mutant lung tumors showed reduced STAT3 levels. Mechanistically, we show that STAT3 controls NFÎºB-induced IL-8-expression by sequestering NFÎºB in the cytoplasm while IL-8 in turn regulates myeloid tumor infiltration and tumor vascularization thereby promoting tumor progression. These results identify a novel STAT3-NFÎºB-IL-8 axis in KRAS-mutant NSCLC with therapeutic and prognostic relevance WT: Control lung; KRAS: Lung tumors expressing KRAS G12D; KRAS STAT3 KO: Lung tumors expressing KRAS G12D- STAT3 deficient; tumors of four mice pooled per sample
