PTTG2 silencing results in induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and apoptosis

Human securin, also known as human pituitary tumor-transforming gene 1 (pttg1), plays a key role in cell-cycle regulation. Two homologous genes, pttg2 and pttg3, have been identified although very little is known about their physiological function. In this study, we aimed at the characterization of these two pttg1 homologs. Real-time PCR analysis using specific probes demonstrated that Pttg2 is expressed at very low levels in various cell lines and tissues whereas Pttg3 was largely undetectable. We focused on the study of Pttg2 and found that, unlike PTTG1, PTTG2 lacks transactivation activity and does not bind to separase, making improbable a role in the control of sister chromatids separation. To further investigate the biological role of pttg2, we used short hairpin RNA inhibition of Pttg2 and found that cells with reduced Pttg2 levels assumed a rounded morphology compatible with a defect in cell adhesion and died by apoptosis in a p53- and p21-dependent manner. Using microarray technology, we generated a gene expression profile of Pttg2-depleted cells versus wild-type cells and found that knockdown of PTTG2 results in concomitant downregulation of E-cadherin and elevated vimentin levels, consistent with EMT induction. The observation of aberrant cellular behaviors in Pttg2-silenced cells reveals functions for pttg2 in cell adhesion and provides insights into a potential role in cell invasion.     

Early involvement of estrogen-induced pituitary tumor transforming gene and fibroblast growth factor expression in prolactinoma pathogenesis.

Pituitary tumors are commonly encountered, and result from clonal expansion of a single mutated cell. Hypothalamic hormones, local growth factors and circulating sex steroid hormones promote pituitary tumor growth and expansion into large invasive tumors. Estrogen acting directly through its receptor and by stimulation of fibroblast growth factor regulates prolactin synthesis and secretion. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (bFGF) modulates angiogenesis, tumor formation and progression in many tissues, including the anterior pituitary. A pituitary tumor-derived transforming gene (PTTG) has been isolated, which is tumorigenic in vivo, regulates bFGF secretion, and inhibits chromatid separation. The human PTTG family consists of at least three homologous genes, of which PTTG1 is located on chromosome 5q33 and is expressed at low levels in most normal human tissues but is highly expressed in malignant human cell lines and in pituitary tumors. We report here that pituitary pttg is regulated in vivo and in vitro by estrogen. Maximal induction of rat pituitary pttg mRNA in vivo occurred early in pituitary transformation (normal cell to hypertrophic/hyperplastic cell), coincident with bFGF and vascular endothelial growth factor induction and pituitary angiogenesis. We also demonstrate that pttg expression is induced by bFGF, and show concordant pttg and bFGF expression in experimental and human pituitary adenomas. As bFGF and estrogen both induce pttg, and pttg expression coincides with the early lactotrophic hyperplastic response, angiogenesis and prolactinoma development, we propose a previously unknown paracrine growth factor-mediated mechanism for pituitary tumor pathogenesis and potentially other estrogen-regulated tumors.

^125I标记单抗LC—I与肺腺癌细胞体内外结合特性的研究

McAb LC-1 was derived from fusion of myeloma cells and murine spleen cells immunized with human lung adenocarcinoma SPC-A-1 cells. The immunoglobulin isotype of LC-1 belonged to IgM. LC-1 was direct against the common epitope of lung cancer. It not only reacted with small cell lung cancer but also with non small cell lung cancer. LC-1 was purified from ascitic fluid by euglobulin precipitation and Sephadex G-200 filtration chromatography, and was iodinated with Iodogen, the specific reactivity of 125I-labeled LC-1 was determined by comparing standard curve with self-displacement curve. The immunoreactive fraction of 125I-LC-1 was determined by its binding to excess of antigen. The RIA data were plotted in Scatchard-form as binding of SPC-A-1 cells to LC-1. The binding constant of LC-1 binding to SPC-A-1 was 4.8 x 10(8) M-1. The LC-1 binding sites on SPC-A-1 were 7.2 x 10(4) per cell. The RIA inhibition test showed that LC-1 and LAC-122 (another IgM isotype McAb reacted only with non small cell lung cancer) had no cross-reactivity. The treatment of SPC-A-1 cells by proteinase and sodium periodate inhibited LC-1 binding to these treated target cells by 39% and 66% respectively. These results suggested that the biochemical nature of antigen recognized by LC-1 was glycoprotein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Studies on antigens of human lung adenocarcinoma with McAb LC-1]

The soluble antigens extracted from both human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1, and normal adult lung tissue with non-idet P-40 were subjected to 10% SDS-PAGE. The number of bands distinguishable by naked eyes of lung adenocarcinoma are 57, in which 4 bands are more significant. The bands of normal human lung tissue are 52, in which 2 bands are more significant. The molecular weights of these bands mainly are within 30 to 94 KD The thin layer chromatographs of these two antigenic extracts have shown that there is difference in their sugar content, but both of them shown little sialic acid. The Immunoblot pattern of McAb LC-1 reacted with the extracts of SPC-A-1 cells shows that all of 3 bands detected can be stained by alcian blue, indicating that they are glycoproteins. However, of them two bands, M. W. of 70 KD and 51 KD can also be stained by Sudan Black B, indicating that these two bands are glycolipoproteins. The ganglioside and neutral glycolipid can inhibit the binding of LC-1 with the extract of SPC-A-1 cells. The results indicate that the epitopes of SPC-A-1 cell extract reacted with McAb LC-1 are probably located in the polysaccharide.     

中等纤维在几种人体上皮细胞有丝分裂过程中的行为

本文用间接免疫荧光法和电镜术观察了分别来自人表皮(PcaSE-1)、复层上皮(CNE)和单层上皮(SPC-A-1)的3个上皮细胞系的细胞在有丝分裂过程中中等纤维的行为。结果表明,CNE细胞和SPC-A-1细胞表达两种不同类型的中等纤维系统:角蛋白纤维和波形纤维,而PcaSE-1细胞仅表达角蛋白纤维。当细胞进入有丝分裂时,PcaSE-1细胞的角蛋白纤维维持完整的形态且将有丝分裂纺锤体围绕在细胞中央。相反,在CNE细胞和SPC-A-1细胞中,在细胞有丝分裂时,角蛋白纤维解聚成无定形的胞质小体,然而它们的波形纤维始终保持完整的形态。我们认为(1)在分裂上皮细胞中,角蛋白纤维的解聚与细胞的恶性程度有关,而与间期上皮细胞中是否含有丰富的角蛋白纤维无明显关系。(2)在上皮细胞有丝分裂时,中等纤维可能参于纺锤体的定位和趋中。(3)在分裂CNE细胞中,波形纤维的可能功能是染色体的定位和定向。     

单抗LC-1与针对的人肺腺癌SPC-A-1细胞肿瘤相关抗原复合物的内化研究

我们运用抗人肺癌单抗LC-1结合胶体金免疫电镜技术研究了人肺腺癌SPC-A-1细胞表面抗原抗体复合物被内吞的全过程,发现该细胞表面抗原抗体复合物是通过受体介导内吞途径被内化,经多泡体富集后至溶酶体消化降解。此外我们还用流式细胞仪分析了内吞前后该细胞表面抗原量的变化和短期内的恢复情况。LC-1在诱发该细胞表面抗原内化的同时还诱发了它对该核糖体的自噬。     

Inhibitory effect of CT120B, an alternative splice variant of CT120A, on lung cancer cell growth

The expression product of ct120a,a novel gene isolated from human chromosome 17p13.3in our laboratory,was predicted to have seven transmembrane domains and could cause malignanttransformation of mouse NIH3T3 cells.There existed an mRNA splicing variant of ct120a,namely ct120b,which had a 96-nucleotide deletion and produced an in-frame loss of 32 amino acids from codon 136 tocodon 167 of CT120A.The CT120B protein was predicted to have six transmembrane domains.In thisstudy,we observed that the green fluorescent protein-tagged CT120B was localized on plasma membraneand in cytoplasm in SPC-A-1 cells.The expression of CT120B/A in normal lung tissue and in lung cancercells was also examined.Results showed that the stable CT120B overexpression in SPC-A-1 cells resultedin a reduction of cell growth rate,and inhibited tumorigenecity and anchorage-independent growth in nudemice.The functions of CT120A and CT120B for cell growth appeared antagonistic.We suggested that thedelayed G_1/S phase transition might contribute to the inhibitory activities of CT120B on cell growth and thatthe deleted 32 amino acids missing in CT120B might be essential for the oncogenetic activities of CT120A.

Molecular cloning and functional characterization of a cell-permeable superoxide dismutase targeted to lung adenocarcinoma cells. Inhibition cell proliferation through the Akt/p27kip1 pathway

In clinical oncology, many trials with superoxide dismutase (SOD) have failed to demonstrate antitumor ability and in many cases even caused deleterious effects because of low tumor-targeting ability. In the current research, the Nostoc commune Fe-SOD coding sequence was amplified from genomic DNA. In addition, the single chain variable fragment (ScFv) was constructed from the cDNA of an LC-1 hybridoma cell line secreting anti-lung adenocarcinoma monoclonal antibody. After modification, the SOD and ScFv were fused and co-expressed, and the resulting fusion protein produced SOD and LC-1 antibody activity. Tracing SOD-ScFv by fluorescein isothiocyanate and superoxide anions (O2*-) in SPC-A-1 cells showed that the fusion protein could recognize and enter SPC-A-1 cells to eliminate O2*-. The lower oxidative stress resulting from the decrease in cellular O2*- delayed the cell cycle at G1 and significantly slowed SPC-A-1 cell growth in association with the dephosphorylation of the serine-threonine protein kinase Akt and expression of p27kip1. The tumor-targeting fusion protein resulting from this research overcomes two disadvantages of SODs previously used in the clinical setting, the inability to target tumor cells or permeate the cell membrane. These findings lay the groundwork for development of an efficient antitumor drug targeted by the ScFv.
