The oncogenic role of circular RNA ENTPD7 (circENTPD7) in cancer biology has been reported in glioblastoma, while its role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unknown. This study was performed to investigate the involvement of circENTPD7 in NSCLC. NSCLC tissues and paired non-tumor tissues were collected from 64 NSCLC patients and the expression of circENTPD7 and PTEN were determined by RT-qPCR. Expression levels of PTEN protein in these tissue samples were measured by ELISA. The 64 NSCLC patients were subjected to a follow-up study to explore the role of circENTPD7 in predicting the survival of NSCLC. Overexpression of circENTPD7 was achieved in NSCLC cells, and the effects of overexpression of circENTPD7 on the expression of PTEN were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot at mRNA and protein level, respectively. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay. CircENTPD7 was upregulated in NSCLC and high expression levels of circENTPD7 predicts the poor survival rate of NSCLC cells. In NSCLC tissues, circENTPD7 was inversely correlated with PTEN protein but not mRNA. In NSCLC tissues, overexpression of circENTPD7 resulted in downregulation of PTEN, but did not alter the expression of PTEN mRNA. Cell proliferation analysis showed that overexpression of circENTPD7 promoted the proliferation of NSCLC cells and reduced the inhibitory effects of overexpression of PTEN on cell proliferation. CircENTPD7 may suppress the accumulation of PTEN to promote cell proliferation in NSCLC. 相似文献

ABSTRACT To evaluate the effects of LncRNAZFAS1 on cell proliferation and tumor metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we detected the expression level of LncRNAZFAS1 in NSCLC-related tissues and cells. qRT-PCR results revealed that LncRNAZFAS1 in tumor tissues was significantly higher than that in normal lung tissue, especially significantly up-regulated in stage III / IV and in metastatic NSCLC tissues. LncRNAZFAS1 expression was dramatically up-regulated in 4 NSCLC-related cells (A549, SPC-A1, SK-MES-1, and NCI-H1299), with having the highest expression level in A549 cells. Furthermore, we implemented a knockdown of LncRNAZFAS1 in A549 cells, and the results of CCK8 and Transwell assays suggested that knockdown of LncRNAZFAS1 significantly inhibited NSCLC cell proliferation and metastasis. Next, we constructed a tumor xenograft model to evaluate the effect of LncRNAZFAS1 on the NSCLC cell proliferation in vivo. The results indicated that knockdown of LncRNAZFAS1 dramatically inhibited A549 cells proliferation and repressed tumor growth. Additionally, knockdown of LncRNAZFAS1 drastically weakened the expressions of MMP2, MMP9 and Bcl-2 proteins, whereas noticeably strengthened the expression of BAX protein. Our results altogether suggest that knockdown of LncRNAZFAS1 has a negative effect on the proliferation and metastasis of NSCLC cell, which implying LncRNAZFAS1 is a potential unfavorable biomarker in patients with NSCLC. 相似文献

WD‐repeat protein 79 (WDR79), a member of the WD‐repeat protein family, acts as a scaffold protein, participating in telomerase assembly, Cajal body formation and DNA double‐strand break repair. Here, we first report that WDR79 is frequently overexpressed in cell lines and tissues derived from non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Knockdown of WDR79 significantly inhibited the proliferation of NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. WD‐repeat protein 79 ‐induced cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase was associated with the expression of G0/G1‐related cyclins and cyclin‐dependent kinase complexes. We also provide evidence that WDR79 knockdown induces apoptosis via a mitochondrial pathway. Collectively, these results suggest that WDR79 is involved in the tumorigenesis of NSCLC and is a potential novel diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for NSCLC. 相似文献

The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), a cell cycle-regulated E3 ubiquitin ligase, is responsible for the transition from metaphase to anaphase and the exit from mitosis. The anaphase promoting complex subunit 10 (APC10), a subunit of the APC/C, executes a vital function in substrate recognition. However, no research has reported the connection between APC10 and cancer until now. In this study, we uncovered a novel, unprecedented role of APC10 in tumor progression, which is independent of APC/C. First, aberrant increase of APC10 expression was validated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and tissues, and the absence of APC10 repressed cell proliferation and migration. Of great interest, we found that APC10 inhibition induced cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase and reduced the expression of the APC/C substrate, Cyclin B1; this finding is different from the conventional concept of the accumulation of Cyclin B1 and cell cycle arrest in metaphase. Further, APC10 was found to interact with glutaminase C (GAC), and the inhibition of APC10 weakened glutamine metabolism and induced excessive autophagy. Taken together, these findings identify a novel function of APC10 in the regulation of NSCLC tumorigenesis and point to the possibility of APC10 as a new target for cancer therapy. 相似文献

Radiation treatment induces neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 and H157 cells, so higher NE-like features in radioresistant A549 (A549R26-1) and H157 (H157R24-1) cells are observed than in parental cells. We detected higher NED marker expressions in A549R26-1 cell-derived tumors than in A549 cell-derived tumors. In mechanism studies, we found that NED induction in A549R26-1 and H157R24-1 cells was accompanied by increased intracellular cAMP and IL-6 levels. Treatment of radioresistant lung cancer cells with the inhibitor (SQ22536) of adenylate cyclase (AC) which is the enzyme responsible for the cAMP production, or the neutralizing antibody (Ab) of IL-6, resulted in decreased NE-like features in radioresistant lung cancer cells. In addition, we found MEK/Erk is the signaling pathway that triggers the cAMP- and IL-6-mediated NED induction in radioresistant lung cancer cells. Also, we found that MEK/Erk signaling pathway inhibition decreased NED in radioresistant cells. Radioresistant lung cancer cells exhibiting high NE-like features also showed higher radioresistance and higher metastatic potential than parental cells. When we inhibited cAMP-, or IL-6-mediated pathways, or the downstream MEK/Erk signaling pathway, radiosensitivity of radioresistant lung cancer cells was significantly increased and their metastatic potential was significantly reduced. In in vivo mouse studies, reducing NED by treating mice with the MEK/Erk inhibitor increased radiosensitivity. Immunohistochemical staining of tumor tissues lowered expressions of the NED/epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)/metastatic markers when mice were treated with the MEK/Erk inhibitor. 相似文献

Malignant melanoma is fatal in its metastatic stage. It is therefore essential to unravel the molecular mechanisms that govern disease progression to metastasis. MicroRNAs (miRs) are endogenous non-coding RNAs involved in tumourigenesis. Using a melanoma progression model, we identified a novel pathway controlled by miR-214 that coordinates metastatic capability. Pathway components include TFAP2C, homologue of a well-established melanoma tumour suppressor, the adhesion receptor ITGA3 and multiple surface molecules. Modulation of miR-214 influences in vitro tumour cell movement and survival to anoikis as well as extravasation from blood vessels and lung metastasis formation in vivo. Considering that miR-214 is known to be highly expressed in human melanomas, our data suggest a critical role for this miRNA in disease progression and the establishment of distant metastases. 相似文献

Cyclin Y (CCNY) is a key cell cycle regulator that acts as a growth factor sensor to integrate extracellular signals with the cell cycle machinery. The expression status of CCNY in lung cancer and its clinical significance remain unknown. The data indicates that CCNY may be deregulated in non-small cell lung cancer, where it may act to promote cell proliferation. These studies suggest that CCNY may be a candidate biomarker of NSCLC and a possible therapeutic target for lung cancer treatment. 相似文献

Reticulocalbin1 (RCN1) is implicated in tumorigenesis and tumour progression. However, whether RCN1-mediated bone metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells was elusive. Here, we assessed the effect of osteoblast-conditioned medium (CM) on proliferation and migration of NSCLC cell line, NCI-H1299 and NCI-H460 cells, and identified the soluble mediators in CMs from osteoblasts and NSCLC cells using MTT, Clonogenicity, Transwell, wound healing, RT-PCR, and Western blotting assays, and LC-MS/MS analysis, respectively. Furthermore, the role of RCN1 was investigated in NSCLC cells cultured with or without osteoblast-CM. Tumour growth and bone resorption were measured in a nude mouse model bearing NCI-H1299 cells transduced with shRNA/RCN1 vector using in vivo imaging technique and micro-CT. The results showed that RCN1 with a higher abundance in osteoblast-CM, which was present in extracellular vesicles (EVs), enhanced RCN1 expression in NSCLC cells. Osteoblast-CM partially offset the inhibitory effect of RCN1 depletion on proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells. RCN1 depletion-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress caused by increasing GRP78, CHOP, IRE1α, p-IRE1α, p-PERK and p-JNK, which was positively regulated by self-induced autophagy, contributed to suppression of proliferation and migration in NCI-H1299 cells. Therefore, osteoblasts produced RCN1 to transfer into NSCLC cells partially through EVs, facilitating proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells via blocking ER stress. RCN1 could be required for proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells regulated by osteoblast-CM. 相似文献

The dysregulation of circular RNA (circRNA) expression is involved in the progression of several cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the role and underlying molecular mechanisms of circRNA FGFR3 (circFGFR3) in NSCLC progression remains unknown. Here, we used quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to validate that circFGFR3 expression was higher in NSCLC tissues than in the paratumor tissues. Furthermore, our study indicated that the forced circFGFR3 expression promoted NSCLC cell invasion and proliferation. Mechanistically, we found that circFGFR3 promoted NSCLC cell invasion and proliferation via competitively combining with miR-22-3p to facilitate the galectin-1 (Gal-1), p-AKT, and p-ERK1/2 expressions. Clinically, we revealed that the high circFGFR3 expression correlates with the poor clinical outcomes in patients with NSCLC. Together, these data provide mechanistic insights into the circFGFR3-mediated regulation of both the AKT and ERK1/2 signaling pathways by sponging miR-22-3p and increasing Gal-1 expression. 相似文献

PurposeRadiation therapy plans are assessed using dose volume metrics derived from clinical toxicity and outcome data. In this study, plans for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) are examined in the context of the implementation of the Acuros XB (AXB) dose calculation algorithm focussing on the impact on common metrics. Methods: Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans were generated for twenty patients, using the Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm (AAA) and recalculated with AXB for both dose to water (D w) and dose to medium (D m). Standard dose volume histogram (DVH) metrics for both targets and organs-at-risk (OARs) were extracted, in addition to tumour control probability (TCP) for targets. Results: Mean dose to the planning target volume (PTV) was not clinically different between the algorithms (within ±1.1 Gy) but differences were seen in the minimum dose, D 99% and D 98% as well as for conformity and homogeneity metrics. A difference in TCP was seen for AXB Dm plans versus both AXB Dw and AAA plans. No clinically relevant differences were seen in the lung metrics. For point doses to spinal cord and oesophagus, the AXB Dm values were lower than AXB Dw, by up to 1.0 Gy. Conclusion: Normalisation of plans to the mean/median dose to the target does not need to be adjusted when moving from AAA to AXB. OAR point doses may decrease by up to 1 Gy with AXB Dm, which can be accounted for in clinical planning. Other OAR metrics do not need to be adjusted. 相似文献

In eukaryotic cells, peroxiredoxins are both antioxidants and regulators of H(2)O(2)-mediated signaling. We previously found that peroxiredoxin-I (Prx-I) was overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissue. Since overexpressed protein can induce a humoral immune response, we examined whether serum from NSCLC patients exhibited immunoreactivity against Prx-I using Western blotting. We found that 25 (47%) of 53 NSCLC patients tested had autoantibodies against Prx-I in their sera, whereas such activity was detected in 4 (8%) sera from 50 healthy subjects. Prx-I itself was detected in the sera from 18 (34%) of 53 NSCLC patients but in only 1 (2%) serum from 50 controls. Moreover, 17% of NSCLC sera were positive to both Prx-I antibody and antigen but none in control sera. The data indicate both Prx-I autoantibody and circulating antigen are potential biomarkers for use in serological diagnosis of NSCLC. Interestingly enough, we found that Prx-I was secreted by lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549) but not by non-cancer lung cells (BEAS 2B) or breast cancer cells (MCF7). This cell culture study suggests the possibility of Prx-I secretion from NSCLC tumor tissues. 相似文献

Objective: To assess the overall accuracy of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in identifying non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, EMBASE and CNKI databases as well as the reference lists from relevant articles was performed prior to July 2017. Two authors independently screened articles based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and assessed the quality of each study using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QADAS-2) tool. Meta-disc 1.4 and Stata12.0 software programs were used for the statistical analysis. Results: Eleven eligible articles comprising 16 studies and representing 935 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.84 (95% CI: 0.80–0.87) and 0.77 (95% CI: 0.74–0.80), respectively. The overall diagnostic performance as measured by the area under the curve (AUC) for the summary receiver-operating characteristic (SROC) curve was 0.9380. Conclusions: MALDI-TOF MS has a high diagnostic accuracy for NSCLC. 相似文献

Glucose metabolism is a common target for cancer regulation and microRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of this process. Here we aim to investigate a tumor-suppressing miRNA, miR-33b, in regulating the glucose metabolism of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In our study, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) showed that miR-33b was downregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, which was correlated with increased cell proliferation and colony formation. Overexpression of miR-33b through miR-33b mimics transfection suppressed NSCLC proliferation, colony formation, and induced cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis. Meanwhile, miR-33b overexpression inhibited glucose metabolism in NSCLC cells. Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that miR-33b directly binds to the 3′-untranslated region of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA). qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that miR-33b downregulated the expression of LDHA. Moreover, introducing LDHA mRNA into cells over-expressing miR-33b attenuated the inhibitory effect of miR-33b on the growth and glucose metabolism in NSCLC cells. Taken together, these results confirm that miR-33b is an anti-oncogenic miRNA, which inhibits NSCLC cell growth by targeting LDHA through reprogramming glucose metabolism. 相似文献

Integral membrane protein 2A (Itm2A) is a transmembrane protein belonging to a family composed of at least two other members, Itm2B and Itm2C, all of them having a different expression pattern. The protein serves as a marker for early stages in chondrogenesis and T-cell development. Itm2A is also highly expressed in skeletal muscle. In order to understand the role of Itm2A in muscle development, we constitutively overexpressed exogenous Itm2A in C2C12 myoblast cells. Several clones expressing high levels of Itm2a were isolated and characterized. Overexpression was associated with enhanced tube formation and the appearance of multinuclear cells. Gene expression analysis demonstrated that muscle creatin kinase was upregulated in the presence of exogenous Itm2A. Interestingly, proliferation rates were not altered in the undifferentiated myoblast C2C12 cells. These results demonstrate that overexpression of Itm2a in C2C12 enhances myogenic differentiation in vitro. 相似文献
