Tumour protein p53‐inducible nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1) is a tumour suppressor associated with malignant tumour metastasis. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a new tumour vascular supply pattern that significantly influences tumour metastasis and contributes to a poor prognosis. However, the molecular mechanism of the relationship between TP53INP1 and breast cancer VM formation is unknown. Here, we explored the underlying mechanism by which TP53INP1 regulates VM formation in vitro and in vivo. High TP53INP1 expression was not only negatively correlated with a poor prognosis but also had a negative relationship with VE‐cadherin, HIF‐1α and Snail expression. TP53INP1 overexpression inhibited breast cancer invasion, migration, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) and VM formation; conversely, TP53INP1 down‐regulation promoted these processes in vitro by functional experiments and Western blot analysis. We established a hypoxia model induced by CoCl2 and assessed the effects of TP53INP1 on hypoxia‐induced EMT and VM formation. In addition, we confirmed that a reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐mediated signalling pathway participated in TP53INP1‐mediated VM formation. Together, our results show that TP53INP1 inhibits hypoxia‐induced EMT and VM formation via the ROS/GSK‐3β/Snail pathway in breast cancer, which offers new insights into breast cancer clinical therapy. 相似文献

Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from their primary location to other parts of the body. Metastatic cancer is responsible for most cancer deaths. Increasing evidence indicates that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a crucial developmental program, contributes to control cancer invasion and metastasis. We recently reported that death effector domain-containing DNA-binding protein (DEDD), a key effector molecule for cell death signaling receptors, attenuates EMT and acts as an endogenous suppressor of tumor growth and metastasis. We found that DEDD physically interacts with the class III PtdIns 3-kinase complex containing PIK3C3 and BECN1, which controls critical aspects of autophagy; this interaction activates autophagy and induces the autophagy-mediated lysosomal degradation of SNAI/Snail and TWIST, two master inducers of the EMT process. Further study reveals that the DEDD-PIK3C3 interaction can support the stability of PIK3C3 to maintain autophagic activity and promote the degradation of SNAI and TWIST. Our finding indicates that DEDD is a prognostic marker and a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of cancer metastasis. Moreover, regulation of the DEDD-PIK3C3 interaction may serve as an entry point to translate modifiers of this interaction into clinical endpoints. 相似文献

缺氧诱导因子(hypoxia inducible factor,HIF)对维持肿瘤细胞的能量代谢、肿瘤血管生成、促进肿瘤细胞增殖和转移起着重要作用,是肿瘤细胞低氧条件下产生的关键信号分子。本综述旨在总结前人研究,阐述HIF与肾癌细胞之间的内在关系。HIF成员是参与肾癌细胞对缺氧应答反应中的关键因子,并通过靶基因的调节,促进新生血管的生成,导致肿瘤生长。其中,HIF-1α及HIF-2α在促进新生血管的生成方面发挥着主要作用。HIF-1α及HIF-2α与VEGF密切相关,随着其的表达增高,VEGF在数量上及m RNA水平上均显著增高,显示其可通过调控VEGF参与肾癌血管生成,而HIF-2α转录激活VEGF m RNA的特异性较HIF-1α更强。HIF-3α可能存在的负性调控作用,其异构体-4的作用可能与HIF-lα的负性调节有关,其可以阻止HIF-lα与下游靶基因的缺氧反应元件(hypoxia response elements,HRE)结合,同时可在转录水平抑制HIF-lα。HIF在未来可能有成为肾细胞癌治疗的靶点。 相似文献

The biological impact and signalling of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) during cancer metastasis has been established. However, the changes in biophysical properties of cancer cells undergoing EMT remain elusive. Here, we measured, via video particle tracking microrheology, the intracellular stiffness of head and neck cancer cell lines with distinct EMT phenotypes. We also examined cells migration and invasiveness in different extracellular matrix architectures and EMT‐related signalling in these cell lines. Our results show that when cells were cultivated in three‐dimensional (3D) environments, the differences in cell morphology, migration speed, invasion capability and intracellular stiffness were more pronounced among different head and neck cancer cell lines with distinct EMT phenotypes than those cultivated in traditional plastic dishes and/or seated on top of a thick layer of collagen. An inverse correlation between intracellular stiffness and invasiveness in 3D culture was revealed. Knock‐down of the EMT regulator Twist1 or Snail or inhibition of Rac1 which is a downstream GTPase of Twist1 increased intracellular stiffness. These results indicate that the EMT regulators, Twist1 and Snail and the mediated signals play a critical role in reducing intracellular stiffness and enhancing cell migration in EMT to promote cancer cells invasion. 相似文献

Desferrioxamine, an iron chelator, enhances HIF-1alpha accumulation via cyclooxygenase-2 signaling pathway 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an important inducible enzyme in inflammation and is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. Evidence is rapidly accumulating that chronic inflammation may contribute to carcinogenesis through increase of cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis in a number of neoplasms, including colorectal carcinoma. In the present study, we investigated some mechanistic aspects of DFX-induced hypoxia-driven COX-2 expression. Desferrioxamine (DFX), an iron chelator, is known to upregulate inflammatory mediators. DFX induced the expression of COX-2 and accumulation of HIF-1alpha protein in dose-dependent manners, but hypoxia mimetic agent cobalt chloride (CoCl2) induced accumulation of HIF-1alpha protein but not increase of COX-2 expression. DFX-induced increase of COX-2 expression and HIF-1alpha protein level was attenuated by addition of ferric citrate. This result suggested that the iron chelating function of DFX was important to induce the increase of COX-2 and HIF-1alpha protein. PD98059 significantly inhibited the induction of COX-2 protein and accumulation of HIF-1alpha, suggesting that DFX-induced increase of HIF-1alpha and COX-2 protein was mediated, at least in part, through the ERK signaling pathway. In addition, pretreatment with NS-398 to inhibit COX-2 activity also effectively suppressed DFX-induced HIF-1alpha accumulation in human colon cancer cells, providing the evidence that COX-2 plays as a regulator of HIF-1alpha accumulation in DFX-treated colon cancer cells. Together, our findings suggest that iron metabolism may regulate stabilization of HIF-1alpha protein by modulating cyclooxygenase-2 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Induction of interleukin-8 preserves the angiogenic response in HIF-1alpha-deficient colon cancer cells 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is considered a crucial mediator of the cellular response to hypoxia through its regulation of genes that control angiogenesis. It represents an attractive therapeutic target in colon cancer, one of the few tumor types that shows a clinical response to antiangiogenic therapy. But it is unclear whether inhibition of HIF-1 alone is sufficient to block tumor angiogenesis. In HIF-1alpha knockdown DLD-1 colon cancer cells (DLD-1(HIF-kd)), the hypoxic induction of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was only partially blocked. Xenografts remained highly vascularized with microvessel densities identical to DLD-1 tumors that had wild-type HIF-1alpha (DLD-1(HIF-wt)). In addition to the preserved expression of VEGF, the proangiogenic cytokine interleukin (IL)-8 was induced by hypoxia in DLD-1(HIF-kd) but not DLD-1(HIF-wt) cells. This induction was mediated by the production of hydrogen peroxide and subsequent activation of NF-kappaB. Furthermore, the KRAS oncogene, which is commonly mutated in colon cancer, enhanced the hypoxic induction of IL-8. A neutralizing antibody to IL-8 substantially inhibited angiogenesis and tumor growth in DLD-1(HIF-kd) but not DLD-1(HIF-wt) xenografts, verifying the functional significance of this IL-8 response. Thus, compensatory pathways can be activated to preserve the tumor angiogenic response, and strategies that inhibit HIF-1alpha may be most effective when IL-8 is simultaneously targeted. 相似文献

Migration and invasion of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) are critical in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Hypoxic conditions are present in RA joints, and hypoxia has been extensively studied in angiogenesis and inflammation. However, its effect on the migration and invasion of RA-FLSs remains unknown. In this study, we observed that RA-FLSs exposed to hypoxic conditions experienced epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), with increased cell migration and invasion. We demonstrated that hypoxia-induced EMT was accompanied by increased hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α expression and activation of Akt. After knockdown or inhibition of HIF-1α in hypoxia by small interfering RNA or genistein (Gen) treatment, the EMT transformation and invasion ability of FLSs were regained. HIF-1α could be blocked by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, LY294002, indicating that HIF-1α activation was regulated by the PI3K/Akt pathway. Administration of LY294002 (20 mg/kg, intra-peritoneally) twice weekly and Gen (25 mg/kg, by gavage) daily for 3 weeks from day 20 after primary immunization in a collagen-induced arthritis rat model, markedly alleviated the clinical signs, radiology progression, synovial hyperplasia, and inflammatory cells infiltration of joints. Thus, results of this study suggest that activation of the PI3K/Akt/HIF-1α pathway plays a pivotal role in mediating hypoxia-induced EMT transformation and invasion of RA-FLSs under hypoxia. 相似文献

It is well recognized that hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) is involved in cancer metastasis, chemotherapy and poor prognosis. We previously found that deferoxamine, a hypoxia-mimetic agent, induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in colorectal cancer. Therefore, here we explored a new molecular mechanism for HIF-1α contributing to EMT and cancer metastasis through binding to ZEB1. In this study, we showed that overexpression of HIF-1α with adenovirus infection promoted EMT, cell invasion and migration in vitro and in vivo. On a molecular level, HIF-1α directly binding to the proximal promoter of ZEB1 via hypoxia response element (HRE) sites thus increasing the transactivity and expression of ZEB1. In addition, inhibition of ZEB1 was able to abrogate the HIF-1α-induced EMT and cell invasion. HIF-1α expression was highly correlated with the expression of ZEB1 in normal colorectal epithelium, primary and metastatic CRC tissues. Interestingly, both HIF-1α and ZEB1 were positively associated with Vimentin, an important mesenchymal marker of EMT, whereas negatively associated with E-cadherin expression. These findings suggest that HIF-1α enhances EMT and cancer metastasis by binding to ZEB1 promoter in CRC. HIF-1α and ZEB1 are both widely considered as tumor-initiating factors, but our results demonstrate that ZEB1 is a direct downstream of HIF-1α, suggesting a novel molecular mechanism for HIF-1α-inducing EMT and cancer metastasis. 相似文献

Hypoxia is known to play critical roles in cell survival, angiogenesis, tumor invasion, and metastasis. Hypoxia mediated over-expression of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) has been shown to be associated with therapeutic resistance, and contributes to poor prognosis of cancer patients. Emerging evidence suggest that hypoxia and HIF pathways contributes to the acquisition of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), maintenance of cancer stem cell (CSC) functions, and also maintains the vicious cycle of inflammation-all which lead to therapeutic resistance. However, the precise molecular mechanism(s) by which hypoxia/HIF drives these events are not fully understood. Here, we show, for the first time, that hypoxia leads to increased expression of VEGF, IL-6, and CSC signature genes Nanog, Oct4 and EZH2 consistent with increased cell migration/invasion and angiogenesis, and the formation of pancreatospheres, concomitant with increased expression of miR-21 and miR-210 in human pancreatic cancer (PC) cells. The treatment of PC cells with CDF, a novel synthetic compound inhibited the production of VEGF and IL-6, and down-regulated the expression of Nanog, Oct4, EZH2 mRNAs, as well as miR-21 and miR-210 under hypoxia. CDF also led to decreased cell migration/invasion, angiogenesis, and formation of pancreatospheres under hypoxia. Moreover, CDF decreased gene expression of miR-21, miR-210, IL-6, HIF-1α, VEGF, and CSC signatures in vivo in a mouse orthotopic model of human PC. Collectively, these results suggest that the anti-tumor activity of CDF is in part mediated through deregulation of tumor hypoxic pathways, and thus CDF could become a novel, and effective anti-tumor agent for PC therapy. 相似文献

Hypoxia activates genetic programs that facilitate cell survival; however, in cancer, it may promote invasion and metastasis. In this study, we show that breast cancer cells cultured in 1.0% O(2) demonstrate changes consistent with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Snail translocates to the nucleus, and E-cadherin is lost from plasma membranes. Vimentin expression, cell migration, Matrigel invasion, and collagen remodeling are increased. Hypoxia-induced EMT is accompanied by increased expression of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and activation of cell signaling factors downstream of uPAR, including Akt and Rac1. Glycogen synthase kinase-3beta is phosphorylated, and Snail expression is increased. Hypoxia-induced EMT is blocked by uPAR gene silencing and mimicked by uPAR overexpression in normoxia. Antagonizing Rac1 or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase also inhibits development of cellular properties associated with EMT in hypoxia. Breast cancer cells implanted on chick chorioallantoic membranes and treated with CoCl(2), to model hypoxia, demonstrate increased dissemination. We conclude that in hypoxia, uPAR activates diverse cell signaling pathways that cooperatively induce EMT and may promote cancer metastasis. 相似文献
