CD155, one of the nectin‐like molecule family members, is involved in cell adhesion and motility. CD155 is overexpressed in several human cancers, but its role in proliferation and apoptosis of colorectal cancer remains unclear. We found that CD155 was up‐regulated in colorectal cancer tissues. CD155 knockdown via shRNA lentiviruses inhibited colon cancers cell migration and invasion, with a reduction in the expression of FAK, Src and MMP‐2. CD155 down‐regulation also suppressed colon cancer cell proliferation, accompanied by changing expressions of some molecules related to cell cycle. Finally, CD155 knockdown increased the expression ratio between Bax and Bcl‐2, resulting in a significant increase in colon cancer cell apoptosis. Taken together, these results demonstrate that CD155 is involved in not only migration and invasion but also proliferation and survival abilities of colon cancer cells, suggesting that CD155 is one of key molecules promoting the growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer. 相似文献

Rapid turnover of the CD8(+)CD28(-) T-cell subset of effector cells in the circulation of patients with head and neck cancer 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
CD8+ T cells in the circulation of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) were previously shown to be significantly more sensitive to, and preferentially targeted for, apoptosis than CD4+ T cells (Hoffmann et al., Clin Cancer Res, 8:2553–2562, 2002). To distinguish global from CD8+ subset-specific apoptosis, we studied Annexin-binding to naïve, memory, and effector subsets of CD8+ cells by multicolor flow cytometry. Age-related changes in naïve and effector CD8+ cell subsets were observed in patients and normal controls (NC). The frequencies of naïve (CD28+CD45RO-) CD8+ T cells were lower and those of memory (CD28+CD45RO+) and effector (CD28-) CD8+ T cells significantly higher in the circulation of HNC patients relative to age-matched NC. Among CD8+ T cells, the CD28- effector cell subset contained the highest proportion of Annexin-binding cells, while the naïve CD28+CD45RO- subset contained the lowest. This suggested a high turnover rate of the CD8+CD28- effector cell subset in patients with HNC, which was being compensated by a rapid transition of naïve CD8+ T cells to the effector cell pool. Following tumor resection, the frequency of CD8+CD28- T cells normalized in the patients, an indication that the presence of tumor had an influence on the size of CD8+CD28- T-cell pool. Ex vivo, in mixed lymphocyte-tumor cultures (MLTC) with semiallogeneic T cells as responders, CD8+CD28- T cells could be generated from CD8+CD28+ cells by repeated stimulations with tumor cells. These CD8+CD28- effector cells lysed the tumor, produced IFN- in response to the tumor, and strongly expressed granzyme B. Thus, the high rate of their apoptosis in the circulation of patients with HNC might be expected to contribute to tumor progression. However, the ex vivo generation of this cell subset was suppressed by strong CD28/B7 ligation or by overexpresson of MHC molecules on tumor cells, suggesting that adequate costimulation is necessary for protection from apoptosis. It appears that interactions of immune and tumor cells might determine the fate of this terminally differentiated effector cell subset.Supported in part by NIH grants: PO-1 DE 12321 and RO-1 CA 82016 to Theresa L.

Gastric cancer is a major cause of mortality worldwide. The glutamate/aspartate transporter SLC1A3 has been implicated in tumour metabolism and progression, but the roles of SLC1A3 in gastric cancer remain unclear. We used bioinformatics approaches to analyse the expression of SLC1A3 and its role in gastric cancer. The expression levels of SLC1A3 were examined using RT‐qPCR and Western bolting. SLC1A3 overexpressing and knock‐down cell lines were constructed, and the cell viability was evaluated. Glucose consumption, lactate excretion and ATP levels were determined. The roles of SLC1A3 in tumour growth were evaluated using a xenograft tumour growth model. SLC1A3 was found to be overexpressed in gastric cancer, and this overexpression was associated with poor prognosis. In vitro and in vivo assays showed that SLC1A3 affected glucose metabolism and promoted gastric cancer growth. GSEA analysis suggested that SLC1A3 was positively associated with the up‐regulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. SLC1A3 overexpression activated the PI3K/AKT pathway and up‐regulated GLUT1, HK II and LDHA expression. The PI3K/AKT inhibitor LY294002 prevented SLC1A3‐induced glucose metabolism and cell proliferation. Our findings indicate that SLC1A3 promotes gastric cancer progression via the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway. SLC1A3 is therefore a potential therapeutic target in gastric cancer. 相似文献

When the CD4+CD8+ thymic lymphoma cells were treated with puromycin, we found that most of the cells died at 0.3-1 μg/ml of puromycin within 24 h. However, cell death was greatly reduced when the dose of puromycin was increased. Similar dose-pattern of cell death was observed in thymocytes and the sensitivity to puromycin was greater in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes than CD4+CD8− thymocytes. The induction of apoptosis was blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, and to some extent by transfection of Bcl-xL or Bcl-2 genes. Expression of GRP78 was up-regulated after treatment with a small dose of puromycin, and the cell death by puromycin was blocked in the presence of caspase 12 inhibitor. These results indicated that the induction of cell death by low-dose puromycin was due to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Furthermore, we found that dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid, and puromycin worked synergistically to induce cell death in thymocytes. 相似文献

Tumor cell can be significantly influenced by various chemical groups of the extracellular matrix proteins. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in the interaction between cancer cells and functional groups in the extracellular matrix remain unknown. Using chemically modified surfaces with biological functional groups (CH3, NH2, OH), it was found that hydrophobic surfaces modified with CH3 and NH2 suppressed cell proliferation and induced the number of apoptotic cells. Mitochondrial dysfunction, cytochrome c release, Bax upregulation, cleaved caspase-3 and PARP, and Bcl-2 downregulation indicated that hydrophobic surfaces with CH3 and NH2 triggered the activation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Cells on the CH3- and NH2-modified hydrophobic surfaces showed downregulated expression and activation of integrin β1, with a subsequent decrease of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activity. The RhoA/ROCK/PTEN signaling was then activated to inhibit the phosphorylation of PI3K and AKT, which are essential for cell proliferation. However, pretreatment of MDA-MB-231 cells with SF1670, a PTEN inhibitor, abolished the hydrophobic surface-induced activation of the intrinsic pathway. Taken together, the present results indicate that CH3- and NH2-modified hydrophobic surfaces induce mitochondria-mediated apoptosis by suppressing the PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway, but not OH surfaces. These findings are helpful to understand the interaction between extracellular matrix and cancer cells, which might provide new insights into the mechanism potential intervention strategies for tumor prognosis. 相似文献

Background
It is increasingly evident that CD8+ T cells are involved in atherosclerosis but the specific subtypes have yet to be defined. CD8+CD25+ T cells exert suppressive effects on immune signaling and modulate experimental autoimmune disorders but their role in atherosclerosis remains to be determined. The phenotype and functional role of CD8+CD25+ T cells in experimental atherosclerosis were investigated in this study.Methods and results
CD8+CD25+ T cells were observed in atherosclerotic plaques of apoE(−/−) mice fed hypercholesterolemic diet. Characterization by flow cytometric analysis and functional evaluation using a CFSE-based proliferation assays revealed a suppressive phenotype and function of splenic CD8+CD25+ T cells from apoE(−/−) mice. Depletion of CD8+CD25+ from total CD8+ T cells rendered higher cytolytic activity of the remaining CD8+CD25− T cells. Adoptive transfer of CD8+CD25+ T cells into apoE(−/−) mice suppressed the proliferation of splenic CD4+ T cells and significantly reduced atherosclerosis in recipient mice.Conclusions
Our study has identified an athero-protective role for CD8+CD25+ T cells in experimental atherosclerosis. 相似文献9.
Although the KAI1/CD82 protein has been reported to inhibit cell metastasis in many studies, its mechanism of action has not yet been fully elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the possible effects of KAI1/CD82 on the metastatic phenotype in H1299 lung carcinoma cells. These studies were based on the pivotal role that the acquisition of motile phenotype plays on the initial steps of metastasis. KAI1/CD82‐mediated morphological changes were observed using phase contrast microscopy. We report here, that a KAI1/CD82‐induced phenotypic change was involved in the decrease of Rac1 expression and GTPase activity. However, we found that KAI1/CD82 did not regulate Rac1 mRNA levels. This suggests the existence of another regulatory mechanism of Rac1 protein maturation or activation. To identify the signaling pathway of Rac1 regulation, we investigated the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, since the PI3K/Akt pathway regulates Rac1 activation and mTOR is known to play a regulatory role in protein translation. H1299/CD82‐transfectants showed lower mTOR expression and cell growth than the control group. The data obtained from this study suggested that KAI1/CD82 decreased the metastatic phenotype of H1299 lung carcinoma cells by down‐regulating Rac1 expression through the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.

4-1BB costimulation enhances HSV-1-specific CD8+ T cell responses by the induction of CD11c+CD8+ T cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Since 4-1BB plays a predominant role in CD8+ T cell responses, we investigated the effects of 4-1BB triggering on the primary and memory CD8+ T responses to HSV-1 infection. 4-1BB was detected on 10-15% of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells following the infection. 4-1BB-positive T cells were in the proliferative mode and showed the enhanced expression of anti-apoptotic proteins. Agonistic anti-4-1BB treatment exerted preferential expansion of CD8+ T cells and gB/H-2Kb-positive CD8+ T cells, and enhanced cytotoxicity against HSV-1 that was mainly mediated by CD11c+CD8+ T cells. CD11c+CD8+ T cells were re-expanded following re-challenge with HSV-1 at post-infection day 50, indicating that CD11c+CD8+ phenotype was maintained in memory CD8+ T cell pool. Our studies demonstrated that 4-1BB stimulation enhanced both primary and memory anti-HSV-1 CD8+ T cell responses, which was mediated by a massive expansion of antigen-specific CD11c+CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

We have developed a DNA vaccine encoding a fusion protein of ubiquitin (Ub) and target proteins at the N-terminus for effective induction of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. A series of expression plasmids encoding a model antigen, ovalbumin (OVA), fused with mutated Ub, was constructed. Western blotting analyses using COS7 cells transfected with these plasmids revealed that there were three types of amino acid causing different binding capacities between Ub and OVA. Natural Ub with a C-terminal glycine readily dissociated from OVA; on the other hand, artificially mutated Ub, the C-terminal amino acid of which had been exchanged to valine or arginine, stably united with the polypeptide, while Ub with a C-terminal alanine partially dissociated. The ability of DNA vaccination to induce OVA-specific CD8+ T cells closely correlated with the stability of Ub fusion to OVA. Our strategy could be used to optimize the effect of genetic vaccines on the induction of CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most widespread malignant cancers, with a high incidence and mortality all over the world. Aspirin (ASA) otherwise known as acetylsalicylic acid, is a non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drug that has shown promising results in the prevention of chronic diseases, including several cancers. In previous studies, aspirin has been shown to reduce the incidence of CRC. Immune checkpoint blockade of T cell Ig and ITIM domain receptor (TIGIT) alone or combined with other immune checkpoint blockades moleculars has gained impressive results in the treatment of the melanoma and glioblastoma. Here, we found that TIGIT and Poliovirus receptor (PVR, CD155) are expressed in tumour cells; the TIGIT and CD155 protein expression in cancer tissue has been found to be significantly higher than that in the precancerous tissue. T cell Ig and ITIM domain receptor and CD226 were expressed in the lymphocytes near the tumour tissue and the adjacent tissues. Aspirin has been found to inhibit cancer cell viability and promote CRC cell apoptosis.Similarly, aspirin has also been found to increase pro‐apoptotic protein Bax's expression. We found that the expression of TIGIT decreased with an increase in the concentration of aspirin and that the suppression of TIGIT can affect the effect of aspirin on cell proliferation. In this paper, we found that aspirin attenuates cancer cell proliferation and induces CRC cells apoptosis by down‐regulating the expression of TIGIT, which provides new evidence for the application of aspirin in cancer treatment. 相似文献

Glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) (GITR) family-related gene is a member of the TNFR super family. GITR works as one of the immunoregulatory molecule on CD4(+) regulatory T cells and has an important role on cell survival or cell death in CD4(+) T cells. Little is known about the expression of GITR on human CD8(+) T cells on antigen-specific and non-specific activation. Here, we report that expression of GITR on human CD8(+) T cells on T-cell receptor (TCR) (anti-CD3)-mediated stimulation is dependent on the JNK pathway. The activation of CD8(+) T cells was measured by the expression of IL-2 receptor-α (CD25), GITR and by IFN-γ production upon re-stimulation with anti-CD3 antibody. We studied the signaling pathway of such inducible expression of GITR on CD8(+) T cells. We found that a known JNK-specific inhibitor, SP600125, significantly down-regulates GITR expression on anti-CD3 antibody-mediated activated CD8(+) T cells by limiting JNK phosphorylation. Subsequently, after stimulation of the CD8(+) cells, we tested for the production of IFN-γ by the activated cells following restimulation with the same stimulus. It appears that the expression of GITR on activated human CD8(+) T cells might also be regulated through the JNK pathway when the activation is through TCR stimulation. Therefore, GITR serves as an activation marker on activated CD8(+) cells and interference with JNK phosphorylation, partially or completely, by varying the doses of SP600125 might have implications in CD8(+) cytotoxic T cell response in translational research. 相似文献

The function of T cell subsets in tumor-bearing mice was examined using an in vitro culture system of anti-(sheep red blood cell) antibody production, which is known to be dependent on T cells. The helper function of T cells of fibrosarcoma-MethA-bearing mice in antibody production decreased with the tumor stage of the mice. T cells were separated into CD4+ and CD8+ cells for further analysis of T cell subsets by the panning method using monoclonal antibodies. The helper function of CD4+ T cells in antibody production began to decrease significantly in tumor-bearing mice 1 week after the tumor transplantation. On the other hand, the suppressive function of CD8+ T cells was retained and had not decreased in the mice even 3 weeks after the transplantation. The same changes in function of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were also observed in Methl-bearing mice. These results suggested that this tumor-associated immunosuppression in antibody production is attributable to the decrease in helper activity of CD4+ T cells and the maintenance of the suppressive activity of CD8+ T cells. 相似文献

We have recently provided data suggesting a potential role for mitochondria and Bcl-2-family molecules in apoptosis sensitivity
of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells. Here, we report on the role of filamentous (F) actin in this process. Disruption of actin by cytochalasin D (cytD)
or lantrunculin A remarkably reduced CD95/Fas-induced apoptosis of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells while their spontaneous apoptosis was unaffected. This inhibition cannot be attributed to changes of CD95/Fas distribution
or levels in these cells. Furthermore, cytD treatment reduced CD95/Fas-induced apoptosis of CD8+ T cells from HIV+ patients independently of their differentiation status. CD95/Fas-induced apoptosis of both CD38+ and CD38− HIV-specific CD8+ T cells was inhibited by cytD treatment indicating that actin mediates this apoptotic process independently of the activation
level of these cells. CytD was found to reduce the activation of caspase-8 induced by short treatment of purified CD8+ T cells from HIV+ patients with anti-CD95/Fas. Our data reveal actin as a critical mediator of HIV-specific CD8+ T cell apoptosis; further analysis of the molecular mechanisms governing this process may potentially contribute to design
new therapies targeting the enhancement of the immune system in HIV infection. 相似文献

Kisspeptin1 (KISS1) is a tumor metastatic suppressor, and its increased expression is validated in human placenta trophoblast cells. Nonetheless, the actions of KISS1 in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)‐impaired human trophoblast HTR8 cells still remain imprecise. This research aims to uncover whether KISS1 can mitigate H2O2‐triggered cell injury. HTR8 cells were pretreated with 250 μM H2O2 for 4 hours; the autophagic markers (Beclin‐1 and LC3B), cell viability, invasion and apoptosis were appraised. Real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot trials were enforced for the valuation of KISS1 mRNA and protein levels. After si‐KISS1 transfection and 3‐MA manipulation, the aforesaid biological processes were reassessed for ascertaining the influences of repressed KISS1 in H2O2‐impaired HTR8 cells. Phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) pathway was eventually estimated. H2O2 enhanced Beclin‐1 and LC3B expression, restricted cell viability, and invasion, and meanwhile caused apoptosis. The elevation of KISS1 evoked by H2O2 was observed in HTR8 cells. In addition, silencing KISS1 was distinctly annulled the function of H2O2 in HTR8 cells. Eventually, we observed that the repression of KISS1 triggered the activation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR in HTR8 cells under H2O2 management. The diverting research unveiled that KISS1 repression eased H2O2‐caused HTR8 cells injury via mediating PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. 相似文献
