Effect of knock-down of circASH2 on gene expression in HCC cells

ABSTRACT: Metastasis, especially intrahepatical, is a major challenge for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment. Cytoskeleton remodeling has been identified as a vital process mediating intrahepatic spreading. Previously we reported HCC tumor adhesion and invasion were modulated by circular RNA (circRNA), which has emerged as important regulators of various cellular processes and has been implicated in the cancer progression. Here we uncovered a novel nuclear circRNA, circASH2, which is preferentially lost in HCC tissues, and inhibits HCC metastasis by altering tumor cytoskeleton structure. Tropomyosin 4 (TPM4), a critical binding protein of actin, turned out to be the major target of circASH2 and was post-transcriptionally suppressed. Such regulation is based on mRNA/pre-mRNA splicing and degradation process. Furthermore, liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of nuclear Y-box binding protein 1 (YBX1) enhanced by circASH2 augments TPM4 transcripts decay. Together, our data have revealed a novel tumor suppressive circRNA and more importantly, uncovered a fine regulation mechanism for HCC progression.

TFAM loss induces nuclear actin assembly upon mDia2 malonylation to promote liver cancer metastasis

Project description:The mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis remain poorly understood. Here, we report that TFAM deficiency rapidly and stably induced spontaneous lung metastasis in mice with liver cancer. Interestingly, unexpected polymerization of nuclear actin was observed in TFAM-knockdown HCC cells when cytoskeleton was examined. Polymerization of nuclear actin is causally linked to the high-metastatic ability of HCC cells by modulating chromatin accessibility and coordinating the expression of genes associated with extracellular matrix remodeling, angiogenesis, and cell migration. Mechanistically, TFAM deficiency blocked the TCA cycle and increased the intracellular malonyl-CoA levels. Malonylation of mDia2, which drives actin assembly, promotes its nuclear translocation. Importantly, inhibition of malonyl-CoA production or nuclear actin polymerization significantly impeded the spread of HCC cells in mice. Moreover, TFAM was significantly downregulated in metastatic HCC tissues and was associated with overall survival and time to tumor recurrence of HCC patients. Taken together, our study connects mitochondria to the metastasis of human cancer via uncovered mitochondria-to-nucleus retrograde signaling, indicating that TFAM may serve as an effective target to block HCC metastasis.

Deciphering the Protein-Protein Interaction Network Regulating Hepatocelluler Carcinoma Metastasis

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of mortality related to cancer all over the world. The poor prognosis of HCC is mostly due to recurrence and tumor metastasis. In order to better understand the molecular mechanisms of HCC metastasis, we analyzed the proteome of three HCC cell lines with different metastasis potentials by using quantitative proteomics and bioinformatics analysis. As a result, we identified 331 cellular proteins potentially associated to HCC metastasis, and constructed a highly connected protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. Functional annotation of the network uncovered prominent pathways and key roles of these proteins, suggesting that metabolism and cytoskeleton biological progresses are greatly involved with HCC metastasis. Furthermore, integrative network analysis revealed a rich-club organization in the PPI network indicating a hub center of connections, including several well-known cancer related proteins, such as SRC proto-oncogene, non-receptor tyrosine kinase (SRC) and pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2). Moreover, the differential expressions of two identified proteins, including PKM2 and actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit 4 (ARPC4), were validated using Western blotting. These two proteins were identified as potential prognostic markers for HCC by using survival rate analysis.

A Mammalian Conserved Circular RNA CircLARP2 Regulates Hepatocellular Carcinoma Metastasis and Lipid Metabolism (Part 2)

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in physiology and human diseases. However, evolutionarily conserved circRNAs with potent functions in cancers are rarely reported. Here, we identified a mammalian conserved circRNA circLARP2 that played critical roles in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). With clinical specimens, we found that patients with high circLARP2 levels in HCC had advanced prognostic stage and poor overall survival. CircLARP2 facilitated HCC metastasis and lipid accumulation in HCC cell lines. CircLARP2 was one of the rare ones that were identified in HCC metastasis and conserved in mammals, which enabled further studies with animal models. CircLARP2-deficient mice exhibited reduced metastasis and less lipid accumulation in an induced HCC model. We provided lines of evidence at molecular, cellular, and whole organismal levels, to support that circLARP2 functioned as a protein sponge of AUF1. CircLARP2 sequestered AUF1 from binding to LKB1 mRNA, which led to decreased LKB1 mRNA stability and lower LKB1 protein levels. LKB1 as a kinase promoted the phosphorylation of AMPK and then the phosphorylation of ACC, the rate limiting enzyme of fatty acid synthesis. Knockdown of Lkb1 with AAV8-shLkb1 in mice HCC model also proved that Lkb1 was a key element in the regulation. Through this AUF1-LKB1-AMPK-ACC pathway, circLARP2 promoted HCC metastasis and lipid accumulation.

Expression profiles in circRHOT1-deficient or control HCC cells.

Project description:RNA-sequencing of Human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells We analyzed two circRNA profiles expressed in human HCC tissues and identified circRHOT1 as a conserved and dramatically upregulated circRNA in HCC tissues. HCC patients displaying high circRHOT1 level possessed poor prognosis. We demonstrated circRHOT1 significantly promoted HCC growth and metastasis. In order to investigate the mechansim of circRHOT1, we constructed circRHOT1-deficient HCC cell lines. Through RNA-sequencing, we sough to identify the key gene regulated by circRHOT1 in HCC.

The circular RNA profiling of 10 paired HCC and matched peritumor tissues

Project description:We collected primary HCC tumor and matched peritumor tissues from 10 HBV-related HCC patients to analyze the circRNA profile and its alteration in HCC through RNA-seq. A total of 92,204 circRNAs were identified in these 20 tissue samples with more than two unique back-spliced reads, of which 42 circRNAs were dysregulated in all HCC tumor tissue samples when compared with matched peritumor tissues (fold change≥2 and p<0.05). As the detailed analysis of circRNA profiles in HCC, our study undoubtedly improved the comprehensiveness of HCC associated circRNA profiles.
