Long Noncoding RNA MRUL Promotes ABCB1 Expression in Multidrug-Resistant Gastric Cancer Cell Sublines

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the most common cause of chemotherapy failure in gastric cancer (GC) treatment; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be involved in carcinogenesis, but the effects of lncRNAs on MDR are poorly understood. We show here that the lncRNA MRUL (MDR-related and upregulated lncRNA), located 400 kb downstream of ABCB1 (ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B, member 1), was significantly upregulated in two multidrug-resistant GC cell sublines, SGC7901/ADR and SGC7901/VCR. Furthermore, the relative expression levels of MRUL in GC tissues were negatively correlated with in vitro growth inhibition rates of GC specimens treated with chemotherapeutic drugs and indicated a poor prognosis for GC patients. MRUL knockdown in SGC7901/ADR and SGC7901/VCR cells led to increased rates of apoptosis, increased accumulation, and reduced doxorubicin (Adriamycin [ADR]) release in the presence of ADR or vincristine. Moreover, MRUL depletion reduced ABCB1 mRNA levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Heterologous luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that MRUL might positively affect ABCB1 expression in an orientation- and position-independent manner. Our findings indicate that MRUL promotes ABCB1 expression and is a potential target to reverse the MDR phenotype of GC MDR cell sublines.

Mad2beta, an alternative variant of Mad2 reducing mitotic arrest and apoptosis induced by adriamycin in gastric cancer cells

Mad2beta is an alternative splicing variant of spindle checkpoint gene mad2, which was previously found by us and was related to the drug resistance in gastric cancer cells. In this paper, we explored the molecular mechanisms that Mad2beta variant promoted the formation of multidrug resistance in gastric cancer cells. We found that Mad2beta variant was detected only in the two human drug resistant gastric cancer cell sublines SGC7901/VCR and SGC7901/ADR, and it did not appear in its parental cell line SGC7901 and other detected gastric cancer cell lines. Expressions of Mad2 mRNA and protein in SGC7901 cells transfected with Mad2beta, SGC7901/VCR and SGC7901/ADR were significantly lower than that in SGC7901 cells. Moreover, SGC7901 cells overexpressing Mad2beta variant became more resistant to adriamycin, vincristine and mitomycin by abrogating mitotic arrest and apoptosis. This suggests that expression of Mad2beta variant decreases the relative expression of efficient MAD2, which may help gastric cancer cells to develop the phenotype of multidrug resistance.     

Reversal of multidrug resistance of vincristine-resistant gastric adenocarcinoma cells through up-regulation of DARPP-32

Here we investigated the roles of DARPP-32 in multidrug resistance (MDR) of gastric cancer cells and the possible underlying mechanisms. We constructed the eukaryotic expression vector of DARPP-32 and transfected it into human vincristine-resistant gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC7901/VCR. Up-regulation of DARPP-32 could significantly enhance the sensitivity of SGC7901/VCR cells towards vincristine, adriamycin, 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin, and could decrease the capacity of cells to efflux adriamycin. What's more, the results of subrenal capsule assay confirmed that DARPP-32 might play a certain role in MDR of gastric cancer. DARPP-32 could significantly down-regulate the expression of P-gp and zinc ribbon domain-containing 1 (ZNRD1), but not alter the expression of multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) or the glutathione S-transferase (GST). DARPP-32 could also significantly decrease the anti-apoptotic activity of SGC7901/VCR cells. Further study of the biological functions of DARPP-32 might be helpful for understanding the mechanisms of MDR in gastric cancer.     

Proteome analysis of multidrug resistance in vincristine-resistant human gastric cancer cell line SGC7901/VCR

In order to elucidate the mechanisms of multidrug resistance (MDR) of vincristine-resistant human gastric carcinoma cell line SGC7901/VCR, 2-DE was used to separate the total proteins of SGC7901/VCR and its parental cell line SGC7901. PDQuest software was applied to analyze 2-DE images, and the differential protein spots were identified by both MALDI-TOF-MS and ESI-Q-TOF-MS. Then the differential expressional levels of partially identified proteins were determined by Western blot analysis and real-time RT-PCR. Furthermore, the association of heat shock protein (HSP27), one of the highly expressed proteins in sgc7901/vcr, with MDR was analyzed using antisense inhibition of HSP27. In this study, the well-resolved, reproducible 2-DE patterns of SGC7901/VCR and SGC7901 were established, and yielded about 1100 protein-spots each. All the 24 differential proteins between the two cell lines were identified, and the differential expression levels of the partial proteins were confirmed. The suppression of HSP27 expression by HSP27 antisense oligonucleotides could enhance vincristine chemosensitivity in sgc7901/vcr and induce the cells to exhibit apoptotic morphological features after vincristine treatment. The differentially expressed proteins could be divided into six groups based on their functions: calcium-binding proteins, chaperones, proteins involved in drug detoxification or repair of DNA damage, metabolic enzymes, proteins related to cellular structure, and proteins relative to signal transduction, some of which may contribute to MDR of human gastric carcinoma cell line SGC7901/VCR. These data will be valuable for further study of the mechanisms of MDR in human gastric cancer.     

Identification of proteins responsible for the development of adriamycin resistance in human gastric cancer cells using comparative proteomics analysis

Resistance to anticancer drugs is a major obstacle in the effective treatment of tumors. To understand the mechanisms responsible for multidrug resistance (MDR), a proteomic approach was used to identify proteins that were expressed in different levels by the adriamycinresistant human gastric cancer cell line, SGC7901/ADR, and its parental cell line, SGC7901. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and image analysis was used to determine which protein spots were expressed in different levels by the two cell lines. These spots were then partially identified using ESI-Q-TOF mass spectrometry, and the differential expressional levels of the partially identified proteins were then determined by western blot analysis and real-time RT-PCR. Additionally, the association of Nucleophosmin (NPM1), a protein that was highly expressed by SGC7901/ADR, with MDR was analyzed using siRNA. As a result of this study, well-resolved, reproducible 2-DE patterns of SGC7901/ADR and SGC7901 were established, and 16 proteins that may play a role in the development of thermoresistance were identified. Additionally, suppression of NPM1 expression was found to enhance adriamycin chemosensitivity in SGC7901/ADR. These results provide a fundamental basis for the elucidation of the molecular mechanism of MDR, which may assist in the treatment of gastric cancer.     

Ribosomal proteins S13 and L23 promote multidrug resistance in gastric cancer cells by suppressing drug-induced apoptosis

Ribosomal proteins (RP) S13 and RPL23 were previously identified as two upregulated genes in a multidrug-resistant gastric cancer cell line SGC7901/VCR compared to its parental cell SGC7901 by differential display PCR. The aim of this study was to explore the roles of RPS13 and RPL23 in multidrug resistance (MDR) in gastric cancer cells. RPS13 and RPL23 were genetically overexpressed in SGC7901 cells, respectively. Either RPS13 or RPL23 enhanced resistance of SGC7901 cells to vincristine, adriamycin, and 5-fludrouracil. RPL23 also enhanced resistance of SGC7901 cells to cisplatin. Overexpression of either RPS13 or RPL23 did not alter the population doubling time, [³H]leucine incorporation, and intracellular adriamycin accumulation of SGC7901 cells. However, either RPS13 or RPL23 could protect SGC7901 cells from undergoing vincristine-induced apoptosis. Western blot analysis revealed that both RPS13 and RPL23 significantly increased the expression level of Bcl-2 and Bcl-2/Bax ratio in SGC7901 cells. In addition, overexpression of RPL23 enhanced glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity and intracellular glutathione content in SGC7901 cells. Together, this work demonstrates that either RPS13 or RPL23 can promote MDR in gastric cancer cells by suppressing drug-induced apoptosis, and that RPL23 may also promote MDR in gastric cancer cells through regulation of glutathione S-transferase-mediated drug-detoxifying system.
