PDCD5在类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞凋亡中表达上调   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
为了研究程序化细胞死亡因子5(PDCD5)在类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞凋亡中的作用,在不同的时间加入有效剂量100 nmol/L雷公藤内醇酯(triptolide)后,采用实时定量PCR、RT-PCR、Western 印迹和直接免疫荧光染色方法检测体外分离培养的类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞中PDCD5在mRNA和蛋白水平的表达及蛋白表达特征.在雷公藤内醇酯诱导类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞凋亡的过程中,PDCD5mRNA表达水平明显地渐次增加,呈现一种明确的时间依赖性递增表达模式,而PDCD5蛋白有时间依赖性表达上调持续16 h,并维持在相对恒定水平.直接免疫荧光染色结果显示,在正常体外培养的类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞中,PDCD5蛋白的表达较弱,且主要分布在细胞浆.经雷公藤内醇酯处理4 h后,大多数细胞有PDCD5蛋白的聚集,直至12 h,细胞核周围PDCD5蛋白聚集显著增强.36 h后,PDCD5蛋白以核固缩的形式存在于凋亡的RA FLS中,细胞核染色质明显浓缩,片段化并出现了凋亡小体.上述结果表明,在类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞凋亡的过程中,PDCD5表达上调并在凋亡早期出现核转位,PDCD5蛋白核转位要早于凋亡小体形成.PDCD5蛋白核转位是类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞凋亡的早期事件,PDCD5不仅参与了类风湿关节炎成纤维样滑膜细胞的凋亡过程,而且在类风湿关节炎滑膜增生的凋亡调节中起到重要调节作用.  相似文献

The programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) protein plays an important apoptosis-accelerating role in cells undergoing apoptosis. Decreased expression of PDCD5 has been detected in various human carcinomas. Here we describe that one potent short interfering RNA (siRNA) against the PDCD5 (siPDCD5) specifically inhibits the expression of PDCD5 at both the mRNA and protein level. Cells with decreased PDCD5 expression displayed reduced sensitivity to an apoptotic stimulus induced by Bax overexpression in HeLa, HEK293 and 293T cell lines. Furthermore, we also show that siPDCD5 inhibited both caspase-3 activity and procaspase-3 cleavage. Suppressed expression of PDCD5 attenuates the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria to cytosol induced by Bax overexpression. This phenomenon is accompanied by the reduced translocation of Bax from the cytosol to mitochondria. MTT assay shows that targeted suppression of PDCD5 expression markedly promoted cell proliferation in Hela and HEK293 cell lines. Our data suggests that PDCD5 may exert its effects through pathway of mitochondria by modulating Bax translocation, cytochrome c release and caspase 3 activation directly or indirectly, and that decreased PDCD5 expression may be one of the mechanisms by which tumor cells achieve resistance to apoptotic stimulus induced by anticancer drugs.  相似文献

XB130 is a newly characterized adaptor protein that was reported to promote thyroid tumor growth, but its role in the progression of other kinds of cancer such as gastric cancer (GC) remains unknown. Accordingly, we investigated the association between XB130 expression and the prognosis of GC patients. The subjects were 411 patients with GC in stages I to IV. XB130 expression was examined in surgical specimens of GC. Kaplan-Meier analysis and the Cox proportional hazards model were used to assess the prognostic significance of XB130 for survival and recurrence. Moreover, GC cells stably transfected with XB130 short hairpin RNA were established to analyze the effect of XB130 on sensitivity of chemotherapy. The results show that both XB130 mRNA and protein expression were detectable in normal gastric tissues. The overall survival time of stage IV patients and the disease-free period after radical resection of GC in stage I-III patients were significantly shorter when immunohistochemical staining for XB130 was low than when staining was high (both p<0.05). XB130 expression also predicted tumor sensitivity to several chemotherapy agents. Viability of both XB130-silenced SGC7901 cells and wild-type cells was suppressed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), cisplatin, and irinotecan in a dose-dependent way, but cisplatin and irinotecan were more sensitive against sXB130-silenced GC cells and 5-FU showed higher sensitivity to wild-type cells. When treated by 5-FU, patients with high expression of XB130 tumors had a higher survival rate than those with low expression tumors. These findings indicate that reduced XB130 protein expression is a prognostic biomarker for shorter survival and a higher recurrence rate in patients with GC, as well as for the response to chemotherapy.  相似文献

Glycolysis is regarded as the hallmark of cancer development and progression, which involves a multistep enzymatic reaction. This study aimed to explore the clinicopathological significance and potential role of glycolytic enzyme aldolase A (ALDOA) in the carcinogenesis and progression of gastric cancer (GC). ALDOA was screened from three paired liver metastasis tissues and primary GC tissues and further explored with clinical samples and in vitro studies. The ALDOA protein level significantly correlated with a larger tumor diameter (P = .004), advanced T stage (P < .001), N stage (P < .001) and lymphovascular invasion (P = .001). Moreover, the expression of ALDOA was an independent prognostic factor for the 5‐year overall survival and disease‐free survival of patients with GC in both univariate and multivariate survival analyses (P < .05). Silencing the expression of ALDOA in GC cell lines significantly impaired cell growth, proliferation and invasion ability (P < .05). Knockdown of the expression of ALDOA reversed the epithelial–mesenchymal transition process. Mechanically, ALDOA could affect the hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF)‐1α activity as demonstrated by the HIF‐1α response element–luciferase activity in GC cells. Collectively, this study revealed that ALDOA was a potential biomarker of GC prognosis and was important in the carcinogenesis and progression of human GC.  相似文献

EphA8 is a member of the erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor (Eph) family of receptor tyrosine kinases. Ephs and their ephrins ligands play crucial roles in many cellular processed by mediating intracellular signaling resulting from cell–cell interactions. But the underlying mechanisms of EphA8 in gastric cancer (GC) remains unclearly. 298 clinical specimens in tissues microarray, and was found to be significantly higher in GC tissues compared with nontumor tissues (p < 0.001). EphA8 expression was also strongly associated with differentiation level (p = 0.025), tumor-node-metastasis stage (p = 0.019), and poor 5 years survival (p < 0.001). A panel of GC cell lines showed reduced proliferation, invasion, and migration capacities after RNA-mediated knockdown of EphA8, concomitant with downregulation of the proliferation-related proteins (cyclin A, cyclin D1, and cyclin-dependent kinase 4) and the metastasis-related (matrix metalloproteinases MMP2, and MMP9). EphA8 knockdown also decreased expression of the protease ADAM10 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10) and ADAM10-related protein AKT, suggesting an interaction between EphA8 and ADAM10. In conclusion, we found that EphA8, which is highly expressed in GC tissues, stimulates proliferation, invasion, and migration of cancer cells, and is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of GC. These dates suggest that EphA8 could be new diagnostic and/or therapeutic targets for GC.  相似文献

Apoptosis is reduced in the synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), possibly due to decreased expression of pro-apoptotic genes. Programmed Cell Death 5 (PDCD5) has been recently identified as a protein that mediates apoptosis. Although PDCD5 is down-regulated in many human tumors, the role of PDCD5 in RA has not been investigated. Here we report that reduced levels of PDCD5 mRNA and protein are detected in RA synovial tissue (ST) and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) than in tissue and cells from patients with osteoarthritis (OA). We also report differences in the PDCD5 expression pattern in tissues from patients with these two types of arthritis. PDCD5 showed a scattered pattern in rheumatoid synovium compared with OA, in which the protein labeling was stronger in the synovial lining layer than in the sublining. We also observed increased expression and nuclear translocation of PDCD5 in RA patient-derived FLS undergoing apoptosis. Finally, overexpression of PDCD5 led to enhanced apoptosis and activation of caspase-3 in triptolide-treated FLS. We propose that PDCD5 may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA. These data also suggest that PDCD5 may serve as a therapeutic target to enhance sensitivity to antirheumatic drug-induced apoptosis in RA.  相似文献

Our previous study found increased zinc finger protein 139 (ZNF139) expression in gastric cancer (GC) cells. Purpose of the study is to further clarify the role and mechanism of ZNF139 in multi-drug resistance (MDR) of GC cells. MTT assay, RT-PCR, Western blotting were employed to detect susceptibility of GC cells to chemotherapeutic agents (5-FU, L-OHP) in vitro, and expressions of ZNF139 and MDR associated genes MDR1/P-gp, MRP1, Bcl-2, Bax were also detected. siRNA specific to ZNF139 was transfected into MKN28 cells, then chemosensitivity of GC cells as well as changes of ZNF139 and MDR associated genes were detected. It’s found the inhibition rate of 5-FU, L-OHP to well-differentiated GC tissues and cell line was lower than that in the poorly differentiated tissues and cell line; expressions of ZNF139 and MDR1/P-gp, MRP1 and Bcl-2 in well-differentiated GC tissues and cell line MKN28 were higher, while Bax expression was lower. After ZNF139-siRNA was transfected into MKN28, ZNF139 expression in GC cells was inhibited by 90 %; inhibition rate of 5-FU, L-OHP to tumor cells increased, and expressions of MDR1/P-gp, MRP1 and Bcl-2 were down-regulated, while Bax was up-regulated. ZNF139 was involved in GC MDR by promoting expressions of MDR1/P-gp, MRP1 and Bcl-2 and inhibiting Bax simultaneously.  相似文献

Helicobacter pylori, a Gram-negative, microaerophilic bacterium found in the stomach, is assumed to be associated with carcinogenesis, invasion and metastasis in digestive diseases. Cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) is an oncogenic protein of H. pylori that is encoded by a Cag pathogenicity island related to the development of gastric cancer. The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is the main biological event in invasion or metastasis of epithelial cells. H. pylori may promote EMT in human gastric cancer cell lines, but the specific mechanisms are still obscure. We explored the underlying molecular mechanism of EMT induced by H. pylori CagA in gastric cancer. In our article, we detected gastric cancer specimens and adjacent non-cancerous specimens by immunohistochemistry and found increased expression of the EMT-related regulatory protein TWIST1 and the mesenchymal marker vimentin in cancer tissues, while programmed cell death factor 4 (PDCD4) and the epithelial marker E-cadherin expression decreased in cancer specimens. These changes were associated with degree of tissue malignancy. In addition, PDCD4 and TWIST1 levels were related. In gastric cancer cells cocultured with CagA expression plasmid, CagA activated TWIST1 and vimentin expression, and inhibited E-cadherin expression by downregulating PDCD4. CagA also promoted mobility of gastric cancer cells by regulating PDCD4. Thus, H. pylori CagA induced EMT in gastric cancer cells, which reveals a new signaling pathway of EMT in gastric cancer cell lines.  相似文献
