Metastasis and recurrence are the biggest obstacles to enhance the efficacy of surgical resection as a cure for hepatocellular
carcinoma which is the second most deadly cancer in China. Here, we had showed that two DNAzymes (DRz1 and DRz2) targeted
to IGF-II could inhibit invasion, motility and migration of SMMC-7721 cells in vitro. DRz1 was transfected into SMMC-7721
cells and the results were shown that IGF-II expression level dramatically reduced. Meanwhile, DRz1 effectively inhibited
adhesion between SMMC-7721 cells with the extracellular matrix and Fb cells comparing to those untreated or transfected with
inactive DRz (P < 0.05, ANOVA). Furthermore, vascular endothelial growth factor and matrix metalloproteinases were down-regulated in DRz1
treated cells. These results may help to identify novel therapeutic molecules targeting hepatocellular carcinomas. 相似文献

Mammalian enabled (MENA), usually known as a direct regulator of microfilament polymerization and bundling, promotes metastasis in various cancers. Here we focus on the role of MENA in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastasis and the relevant mechanism from the view of RhoA activity regulation. By HCC tissue microarray analysis, we found that MENA expression was positively associated with satellite lesions (P<0.01) and vascular invasion (P<0.01). Cases with membrane reinforcement of MENA staining in HCC tissues had significantly higher rates of early recurrence in the intermediate MENA expression group. Knockdown of MENA significantly suppressed HCC cell migration and invasion in vitro, as well as their intrahepatic and distant metastasis in vivo. Knockdown of MENA also decreased filopodia and stress fibers in SMMC-7721 cells. Furthermore, a decrease of RhoA activity was detected by a pull-down assay in SMMC-7721-shMENA cells. The ROCK inhibitor, Y-27632, suppressed migration of both MENA knockdown SMMC-7721 cells and control cells, but diminished their difference. Thus, our findings suggest that MENA promotes HCC cell motility by activating RhoA. 相似文献

Osteopontin (OPN) is over-expressed in a variety of cancers, but its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression has
not been clarified. In this study, weakly tumorigenic, non-metastastic human HCC cell line SMMC-7721 cells were forced to
over-express OPN via stable transfection. A series of functional assays were performed to assess the effects of OPN on tumor
cell behaviors and cDNA microarray was used to identify the genes regulated by OPN. The results showed that OPN significantly
enhanced the migration and invasion of SMMC-7721 cells in vitro. In addition, CD44v6 antibody could significantly inhibit the invasion of OPN over-expressing SMMC-7721 cells. Moreover, MMP-2 and uPA expressions
were significantly up-regulated in OPN over-expressing SMMC-7721 cells. Together, these findings indicate that OPN enhanced
HCC cells invasion through interaction with its receptor CD44v6 and increased MMP-2 and uPA expressions, providing at least
one mechanism for OPN-mediated HCC progression and metastasis. 相似文献

The development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been associated with abnormal cellular metabolism. Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis RNA sequencing data revealed caveolin-1 (CAV-1) and hexokinase 2 (HK2) messenger RNA (mRNA) were significantly upregulated in human HCC compared with normal tissues, and high HK2 expression was associated with significantly poorer overall survival in HCC ( p < 0.05). CAV-1 and HK2 mRNA and protein expression were upregulated and positively correlated in 42 fresh human HCC tissues compared with tumor-adjacent normal tissues. Overexpression of CAV-1 or HK2 in SMMC-7721 and HepG2 HCC cells enhanced glucose and lactate metabolism and increased cell migration and invasion in transwell assays; knocking down CAV-1 or HK2 had the opposite effects. Overexpression of CAV-1 increased HK2 expression; overexpression of HK2 did not affect CAV-1 expression. Knocking down HK2 partially reversed the ability of CAV-1 to promote cellular metabolism, invasion, and migration in HCC, indicating CAV-1 enhances glycolysis, invasion, and metastasis in HCC cells via HK2-dependent mechanism. Further studies of the function and relationship between CAV-1 or HK2 expression are warranted to explore the potential of these proteins as metabolic targets for the treatment of HCC. 相似文献

To investigate the synergistic effect of EMS1-PSilencer4.1-shRNA (EMS1-shRNA) and sorafenib on biological behaviors of HCC cell line SMMC-7721. EMS1-shRNA was constructed and transfected into SMMC-7721 cells. Decreased levels of EMS1/cortactin were tested in RT-QPCR and Western blot assay. Proliferation, migration, invasion, and endocytosis of SMMC-7721 were tested through CCK8 assay, scratch test, transwell invasion assay and transferrin endocytosis assay, respectively. Raf-1 was detected by Western blot assay. HCC xenograft model was prepared to observe tumor growth. Animals were euthanized and their subcutaneous lesions were weighed. Then the tissues were fixed and paraffin sections were prepared. Cortactin and PCNA (a proliferation marker) were then detected by immunohistochemistry. As compared with untreated group, the levels of EMS1 gene and cortactin protein in EMS1-shRNA-transfected group were significantly reduced; Among EMS1-shRNA-transfected group, sorafenib-treated group and combined group, the levels of proliferation at 48 h were reduced to 83.69, 57.18, 41.94 %; the levels of migration were reduced to 49.69, 60.83, and 21. 67 %; the levels of invasion were reduced to 42.97, 53.65, 18.18 %; the levels of endocytosis were reduced to 37.15, 97.95 % (p > 0.05), 20.68 % (p < 0.05, respectively). Western blot assay showed levels of Raf-1 were reduced to 68.56, 59.09, 21.90 %. The tumor volume and weight of nude mice HCC xenograft tumors were reduced significantly either (p < 0.05, respectively). Immunohistochemistry showed levels of cortactin and PCNA were reduced to 35.69, 93.84, 23.68 and 87.69, 43.84, 33.68 % in each group, respectively. The biological behaviors of SMMC-7721 were inhibited in the presence of EMS1-shRNA and sorafenib both alone and in combination. The combination of the agents improved the curative effect over either single agent, showing synergetic effect. 相似文献

The ribosome assembly factor NIN/RPN12 binding protein (Nob1) has been suggested to be essential for processing of the 20S
pre-rRNA to the mature 18S rRNA, and is also reported to participate in proteasome biogenesis. However, it is unclear whether
Nob1 is involved in tumor cells growth. The aim of this study was to determine whether the suppression of Nob1 by short hairpin
RNA (shRNA) inhibits the growth of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Recombinant lentiviral shRNA expression vector
carrying Nob1 was constructed and then infected into human HCC cell line SMMC-7721. The growth properties of SMMC-7721/pGCSIL-GFP-shNC and pGCSIL-GFP-shNob1 cells were determined by MTT, BrdU incorporation assay, and flow cytometric analysis. In addition, the colony formation and
tumor growth ability in nude mice were detected to define the function of Nob1 in cell transformation and tumorigenesis. Our
data showed that the growth and proliferation of SMMC-7721/pGCSIL-GFP-shNob1 cells were significantly reduced compared with the SMMC-7721/pGCSIL-GFP-shNC. In addition, the colony formation was impaired after the suppression of Nob1 in SMMC-7721 cells. And in vivo, the tumor
formation ability of the SMMC-7721/pGCSIL-GFP-shNob1 cells was significantly reduced compared with the control cells. Our data support that Nob1 is an important regulator of
the tumorigenic properties of human HCC and could be used as a candidate therapeutic target in human HCC. 相似文献

We previously isolated a sulfated polysaccharide–protein complex from Gekko swinhonis Guenther, a traditional Chinese medicine, and have demonstrated its direct anti-cancer effect on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell
line SMMC-7721. Here we investigated the effects of Gekko sulfated polysaccharide–protein complex (GSPP) on the defective biorheological characters of dendritic cells (DCs) under
SMMC-7721 microenvironment. Our findings have shown that the biorheological properties of DCs were severely impaired by SMMC-7721
microenvironment, including decreased cell deformability, migration, and electrophoresis mobility, increased osmotic fragilities,
and changed organizations of cytoskeletal proteins. We also found decreased secretion of interleukin (IL)-12 and increased
secretion of IL-10 in DCs. However, supernatant collected from nonmalignant liver cells had no effect on these parameters.
SMMC-7721 cells were treated with GSPP and the supernatant was used to culture DCs. We found that the defective biorheological
parameters of DCs, except for osmotic fragility, were partially or completely improved. The secretion of IL-12 did not change
as compared with that of DCs in SMMC-7721 microenvironment, but the secretion of IL-10 was resumed to the control level. Our
results indicate that GSPP could partially restore the defective biorheological characteristics of DCs via modifying the tumor
microenvironment and decreasing the secretion of IL-10 of DCs. 相似文献

Members of the Spred gene family are negative regulators of the Ras/Raf-1/ERK pathway, which has been associated with several features of the tumor malignancy. However, the effect of Spred genes on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains uninvestigated. In the present work, we analyzed the in vitro and in vivo effects of Spred2 expression on the hepatic carcinoma cell line, SMMC-7721. In addition to attenuated ERK activation, which inhibited the proliferation and migration of unstimulated and HGF-stimulated SMMC-7721 cells. Adenovirus-mediated Spred2 overexpression induced the activation of caspase-3 and apoptosis, as well as reduced the expression level of Mcl-1. Most importantly, the knockdown of Spred2 markedly enhanced tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, these results suggest that Spred2 could qualify as a potential therapeutic target in HCC. 相似文献

It has been reported that miR-623 is deregulated in lung adenocarcinoma and inhibits tumor growth and invasion. However, it is unclear whether miR-623 has a role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Herein, we found that miR-623 was significantly downregulated in HCC, and that its expression was related to poor clinical outcomes of patients with HCC. Upregulation of miR-623 decreased cell proliferation, viability, migration, and invasion and further promoted apoptosis in 7721, Huh7, and Bel-7402 cells. Moreover, we also observed that miR-623 regulated the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt), Wnt/β-catenin, and extracellular regulated protein kinases/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (ERK/JNK) signaling pathways as well as the expression level of related proteins. Further, X-ray repair cross complementing 5 (XRCC5) was a direct target for miR-623, and the suppression of PI3K/Akt, Wnt/β-catenin, and ERK/JNK signaling pathways and cell proliferation and invasion abilities caused by miR-623 in HCC cells was significantly reversed by the upregulation of XRCC5. Collectively, our data suggested that miR-623 suppressed the progression of HCC by regulating the PI3K/Akt, Wnt/β-catenin, and ERK/JNK pathways by targeting XRCC5 in HCC in vitro, indicating that miR-623 may be a target for the therapy of HCC. 相似文献

This study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of miR-513b and HMGB3 in regulating non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC tumor, adjacent tissues, and cell lines were extracted, and the expression of miR-513b and HMGB3 were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot analysis. Then, miR-513b was overexpressed in NSCLC cell, and the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of cells were determined by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT), wound healing, transwell, and flow cytometry, respectively. Regulatory relationship between miR-513b and HMGB3 was determined using luciferase activity reporter assay. Lastly, HMGB3 and/or miR-513b were overexpressed in NSCLC cells, and the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of cells were determined. Compared with the controls, the expression of miR-513b was significantly downregulated in the NSCLC tissues and cells lines by RT-qPCR ( p < 0.05). However, the expression of HMGB3 was significantly downregulated at both messenger RNA and protein levels ( p < 0.05). Overexpression of miR-513b could significantly inhibit the proliferation, invasion, migration, and promote apoptosis of NSCLC cells ( p < 0.05). HMGB3 was a target of miR-513b, and overexpression of HMGB3 could obviously reverse the effect of miR-513 on the proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis of NSCLC cells ( p < 0.05). The present results could suggest miR-513b was downregulated in NSCLC and could regulate the proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis of NSCLC cells via HMGB3. 相似文献

Selenium, iron, copper, and zinc levels and copper-to-zinc ratios in serum of patients at different stages of viral hepatic diseases 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Viral hepatic diseases, especially those induced by the hepatitis B virus, can progress into more serious pathological outcomes
and eventually to hepatocellular carcinoma. A growing body of evidence indicates that many trace elements play important roles
in a number of carcinogenic processes that proceed through various mechanisms. To examine the status of trace elements during
the development of hepatic carcinoma, we determined the selenium, iron, copper, and zinc levels and copper-to-zinc ratios
in the serum of patients at different stages of viral hepatic disease. We observed significant changes in the selenium, iron
copper, and zinc levels in the serum of patients having hepatocellular carcinoma, relative to those of healthy controls (p<0.05). The mean serum copper level in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was significantly higher than that of the control
group. In contrast, the mean selenium, iron, and zinc levels in patients having hepatocellular carcinoma were significantly
lower than those of the control group. In addition, the mean zinc level in the serum of patients with hepatic cirrhosis was
significantly lower than that of the control group (p<0.05). Moreover, we found markedly elevated Cu: Zn ratios (p<0.05) in patients having hepatic cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Our findings imply that the levels of some trace
elements, such as selenium, iron, copper, and zinc, and Cu:Zn ratios, might serve as biomarkers for the increased severity
of viral hepatic damage. 相似文献

Growing evidence indicates that systemic inflammation response and malnutrition status are correlated with survival in certain types of solid tumors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and overall survival (OS) in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after esophagectomy. A consecutive series of 655 patients with resected ESCC who underwent esophagectomy were enrolled in the retrospective study. The preoperative SII was defined as platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte counts. The PNI was calculated as albumin concentration (g/L) + 5 × total lymphocyte count (109/L). The optimal cut-off values of SII, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and PNI were determined by receiver operating characteristic analysis. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier method with a log-rank test, followed by a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. A high SII was significantly related to tumor size, histological type, invasion depth, and TNM stage (p < 0.05). A low PNI was significantly associated with age, tumor size, invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage (p < 0.05). Univariate analysis revealed that age, smoking history, tumor size, invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, SII, NLR, PLR, and PNI were predictors of OS (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis identified age (p = 0.041), tumor size (p = 0.016), invasion depth (p < 0.001), lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001), SII (p = 0.033), and PNI (p = 0.022) as independent prognostic factors correlated with OS. There was a significant inverse relationship between the SII and PNI (r = 0.309; p < 0.001). The predictive value increased when the SII and PNI were considered in combination. Our results demonstrate that the preoperative high SII and low PNI are powerful indicators of aggressive biology and poor prognosis for patients with ESCC. The combination of SII and PNI can enhance the accuracy of prognosis. 相似文献

RAC1 regulates a diverse array of cellular events including migration and invasion. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have a key role in the regulation of gene expression. In this study, we demonstrated that microRNA-142-3p (miR-142-3p) acted as a negative regulator of human RAC1. Overexpression of miR-142-3p decreased RAC1 mRNA and protein levels. Moreover, the overexpression of miR-142-3p suppressed, while blocking of miR-142-3p increased colony formation, migration and invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines (QGY-7703 and SMMC-7721). RAC1 overexpression without the 3'untranslated region abolished the effect of miR-142-3p in the QGY-7703 and SMMC-7721 cells. These results demonstrated that miR-142-3p directly and negatively regulates RAC1 in HCC cells, which highlights the importance of miRNAs in tumorigenesis. 相似文献
