Role of EGR1 in vasculogenic mimicry of MDA-MB-231 cells

ABSTRACT: Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is an intriguing phenomenon observed in tumor masses, in which cancer cells organize themselves into capillary-like channels that closely resemble the structure and function of blood vessels. Although VM is believed to contribute to alternative tumor vascularization, the detailed regulatory mechanisms controlling these cellular processes remain poorly understood. Our study aimed to investigate the role of Early Growth Response 1 (EGR1) in regulating VM in aggressive cancer cells, specifically MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells.

Gene expression of osteosarcama cell line with vasculogenic mimicry phenotype

Project description:Vasculogenic mimicry has been generally accepted as a new form of tumor vascularization and regarded as an unfavorable prognostic factor in multiple aggressive malignancies. We previously reported the presence of vasculogenic mimicry in osteosarcoma patients. The mechanistic basis for osteosarcoma VM remains unclear. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression between 143B cells and HOS cells exposed to Matrigel which showed greatly different vasculogenic mimicry formation potential and identified distinct classes of vasculogenic mimicry-realted genes during this process.

Proteomics analysis on COE inhibiting vasculogenic mimicry in hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:New strategies and drugs are urgently needed to improve the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) has been elucidated being associated with the progression of HCC and anti-VM could be a promising strategy. Celastrus orbiculatus extract (COE), a mixture of 11 terpenoids isolated from the Chinese Herb Celastrus Orbiculatus Vine, has been elucidated to be able to disrupt VM formation in HCC. This study aims to dissect and identify the potential targets of COE on anti-VM formation both in vitro and in vivo that are distinct from our previous study. Proteomics analysis was used to identify differential proteins in HCC cells treated with or without COE. Cells invasion was examined using Transwell. Matrigel was used to establish a 3-D culture condition for VM formation in vitro. RT-PCR and Western Blot were used to examine changes of mRNA and protein respectively. Clinical resected samples were applied to confirm association between VM formation and identified targets. Subcutaneous xenograft tumor model was established to observe tumor growth and VM formation in vivo. PAS-CD34 dual staining was used to detect VM in vivo. A total of 194 proteins were identified to be differentially expressed in HCC cells treated with or without COE. In the 93 down-regulated proteins EphA2 stood out to be regulated on both RNA and protein level. Disruption EphA2 using COE or NVP inhibited VM formation and decreased VM associated biomarkers. In xenograft mouse model, COE inhibited tumor growth and VM formation via down-regulating EphA2. Taken together, our results indicate that COE could be used in HCC treatment because of its promising anti-VM effect.

Erianin abrogates vasculogenic mimicry through targeting m5C methylase NSUN2

Project description:Purpose: The precise temporal and spatial regulation of N5-methylcytosine (m5C) RNA modification plays essential roles in RNA metabolism. Targeting m5C regulation in cancer cells may be a potential strategy for cancer therapy. Erianin is a natural product isolated from Dendrobium chrysotoxum Lindl. Howbeit, the in‐depth understanding of interaction between erianin and m5C modification remains indistinct. Methods: Natural product library screening was used to explore the effects of natural product monomers on uveal melanoma (UM) cells. Intraocular xenografts model was established to examine the effect of erianin. Immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry (IP-MS) and molecular docking analyses were performed to identify NSUN2 as the target of erianin. m5C-meRIP-seq and m5C-meRIP-qPCR analyses were performed to identify the functional target of NSUN2. Tube formation assay and CD31-PAS double staining were used to detect vasculogenic mimicry (VM) in UM. Results: Herein, we report the discovery of erianin as an effective inhibitor of uveal melanoma. Mechanistically, the targeted inhibition of NSUN2 function by erianin results in a decrease in the m5C modification and expression levels of CHAC1 in UM, thereby curtailing the formation of VM. Conclusions: Collectively, our data suggested that erianin significantly inhibited UM progression in vitro and in vivo. Our study unveils a novel therapeutic strategy for combating UM.

EBV-induced CXCL8 upregulation promotes vasculogenic mimicry in gastric carcinoma via NF-κB signaling

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC) is a distinct entity that has conspicuously tumor microenvironment compared with EBV-negative gastric carcinoma. However, the exact role of EBV in gastric carcinogenesis remains elusive. In the present study, we found that EBV upregulated CXCL8 expression, and CXCL8 significantly promoted vasculogenic mimicry (VM) formation of gastric carcinoma cells. In accordance with these observations, CXCL8 increased cell proliferation and migration of AGS and BGC823 cells, respectively. In addition, activation of NF-κB signaling was involved in VM formation induced by CXCL8, which was blocked by NF-κB inhibitor BAY 11-7082. Furthermore, EBV encoded lncRNA RPMS1 activated the NF-κB signaling cascade, which is responsible for EBV-induced VM formation. Both xenografts and clinical samples of EBVaGC exhibit VM histologically, which are correlated with CXCL8 over-expression. Finally, CXCL8 is positively correlated with overall survival in gastric carcinoma patients. In conclusion, EBV-upregulated CXCL8 expression promotes VM formation in gastric carcinoma via NF-κB signaling and CXCL8 may serve as a novel anti-tumor target for EBVaGC.

Single cell RNA-seq of 4T1-T vasculogenic mimicry-competent mammary tumors

Project description:We have previously described a sub-clones of the 4T1 mammary carcinoma cell line that are proficient for vasculogenic mimciry (VM), namely 4T1-E and 4T1-T. In vitro assays suggest that not all cells within these lines a VM-competent. To explore subsets of cells within tumors derived from these cells that may display VM properties we utilized single cell RNA-Seq of 4T1-T mammary fat-pad tumors.

An interplay between extracellular matrix proteins and the cancer cell promotes the multistep process of in vitro vasculogenic mimicry formation.

Project description:Cancer vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is the formation of vasculature structures in the absence of endothelial cells. We previously established an in vitro model that facilitates the formation of a lumen-containing and fluid-conducting tubular structures after 4 days cancer cell growth on Matrigel. Herein, we mechanistically characterize this model in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines demonstrating distinct phases of VM formation and the dependence of specific extracellular matrix proteins. We report that VM occurs in four distinct stages. Firstly, alignment, migration then clustering delineate the area of the future tubular structure. Secondly, contraction of aligned structures followed by loss of attachment of some cells and cellular blebbing. Thirdly, a phase of mass proliferation followed by the raising of specific areas of the cancer cell mass above the Matrigel (bridge). Finally, the formation of a cell monolayer closes the tubular structure, forms a glycoprotein-rich luminal lining, then elevates the structure. Only later stages of VM require AKT and FAK signaling. We demonstrate that the lining of the tubular lumen is rich in laminin. Laminin 111 (but not collagen I) must be presence in the extracellular matrix (Matrigel) for VM to occur and integrin β1, but not integrin β3, is required. RNASeq demonstrates that formation is principally post-transcriptional regulation, however, this technique together with siRNA knockdown identified the first and essential biological function for the protein SMIM11A. VM is associated with poor patient survival and thus an understanding of the mechanism of VM may bring to light novel anticancer targets.

Antibody-drug conjugate αEGFR-E-P125A reduces triple-negative breast cancer vasculogenic mimicry, motility, and metastasis through inhibition of EGFR, integrin, and FAK/STAT3 signaling

Project description:Primary tumor growth and metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) require supporting vasculature, which develop through a combination of endothelial angiogenesis and vasculogenic mimicry (VM), a process associated with aggressive metastatic behavior in which vascular-like structures are lined by tumor cells. We developed αEGFR-E-P125A, an antibody-endostatin fusion protein that delivers a dimeric, mutant endostatin (E-P125A) payload that inhibits TNBC angiogenesis and VM in vitro and in vivo. To characterize the mechanisms associated with induction and inhibition of VM, RNA-seq of MDA-MB-231-4175 TNBC cells grown in a monolayer (2D) was compared to cells plated on Matrigel undergoing VM (3D). We then compared RNA-seq between TNBC cells in 3D and cells in 3D with VM inhibited by αEGFR-E-P125A (αEGFR-E-P125A). Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) demonstrated that VM induction activated the IL6-JAK-STAT3 and angiogenesis pathways, which were downregulated by αEGFR-E-P125A treatment. Correlative analysis of the phospho-proteome demonstrated decreased EGFR phosphorylation at Y1069, along with decreased phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) Y397 and STAT3 Y705 sites downstream of α5β1 integrin. Suppression of phosphorylation events downstream of EGFR and α5β1 integrin demonstrated that αEGFR-E-P125A interferes with ligand-receptor activation, inhibits VM, and overcomes oncogenic signaling associated with EGFR and α5β1 integrin crosstalk. In vivo, αEGFR-E-P125A treatment decreased primary tumor growth and VM, reduced lung metastasis, and confirmed the inhibition of signaling events observed in vitro. Simultaneous inhibition of EGFR and α5β1 integrin signaling by αEGFR-E-P125A is a promising strategy for the inhibition of VM, tumor growth, motility, and metastasis in TNBC and other EGFR-overexpressing tumors.
