micro RNAs(mi RNAs)是一种内源性的基因调控元件,参与细胞增殖、分化、凋亡等多种重要生物学过程。在许多实体瘤和血液系统恶性肿瘤中均存在mi RNA异常表达,说明mi RNA可能参与肿瘤的发生及发展。Wnt通路是一条经典的信号通路,其异常激活与多种实体瘤和血液系统恶性肿瘤的发生发展密切相关。急性淋巴细胞白血病(acute lymphoblastic leukemia,ALL)是一种常见的成人血液系统恶性肿瘤,现已发现多种mi RNA在ALL中异常表达,并与发病、治疗效果及预后有关。在ALL中可见Wnt信号通路的异常激活及通路抑制剂的异常失活,并且这些变化与ALL的预后密切相关。本文就mi RNAs和Wnt信号通路在急性淋巴细胞白血病(acute lymphoblastic leukemia,ALL)中的作用相关研究进展作一综述,以提供靶向治疗ALL的新思路。 相似文献

Multiple myeloma is the most common form of plasma cell dyscrasia and virtually all cases of myeloma exhibit osteolytic lesions, which result in bone pain, pathological fractures, spinal cord compression, and hypercalcaemia. Malignant plasma cells disrupt the delicate balance between bone formation and bone resorption, which ultimately leads to the debilitating osteolytic lesions. This review focuses principally on mechanisms of osteoblast inhibition by malignant plasma cells with emphasis placed on our experimental findings, which support a model for abnormal Wnt signaling in osteoblast suppression. We describe how excessive amounts of soluble Wnt inhibitors secreted by malignant plasma cells in multiple myeloma could promote osteolytic lesions, tumor growth, suppress hematopoiesis, prevent proper engraftment, and expansion of transplanted stem cells. Finally, we detail current therapies shown to disrupt the interaction between the myeloma cell and the microenvironment, leading to activation of osteoblasts. 相似文献

Cardiac hypertrophy (CH) is an adaptive cardiac response to overload whose decompensation eventually leads to heart failure or sudden death. Recently, accumulating studies have indicated the implication of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in CH progression. MAGI1-IT1 is a newly-identified lncRNA that is highly associated with CH, while its specific role in CH progression remains masked. In this study, we uncovered that MAGI1-IT1 was distinctly downregulated in angiotensin (Ang) II-induced hypertrophic H9c2 cells. Also, MAGI1-IT1 overexpression in Ang II-treated H9c2 cells strikingly abolished the enlarged surface area and the enhanced levels of hypertrophic markers such as ANP, BNP, and β-MHC. Mechanically, we found MAGI1-IT1 sponged miR-302e which was identified as a hypertrophy-facilitator here, and that miR-302e upregulation countervailed the inhibition of MAGI1-IT1 overexpression on hypertrophic cells. Moreover, it was confirmed that MAGI1-IT1 boosted DKK1 expression by absorbing miR-302e. Subsequently, we also illustrated that MAGI1-IT1 inactivated Wnt/beta-catenin signaling through a DKK1-dependent pathway. Finally, both the DKK1 inhibition and LiCI (Wnt activator) supplement abrogated the hypertrophy-suppressive impact of MAGI1-IT1 on Ang II-simulated hypertrophic H9c2 cells. Jointly, our findings disclosed that MAGI1-IT1 functioned as a negative regulator in CH through inactivating Wnt/beta-catenin pathway via targeting miR-302e/DKK1 axis, revealing a novel road for CH treatment. 相似文献

Wnt (Wingless Int) signaling pathway has been known to be dysregulated in several human cancers, especially colorectal cancer (CRC). The Dickkopf (DKK) family which consists of four secreted proteins in vertebrates (DKK 1, 2, 3, 4) is one of the most critical antagonist families for Wnt signaling pathway. They typically antagonize Wnt/β-catenin signaling by binding and inhibiting Wnt co-receptors, LRP5/6 (low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 5/6). However, except for DKK1 (Dickkopf 1), details about structure and function of the members of this family are poorly defined. In this study, main Dickkopf family members were analyzed structurally, using protein structure prediction tools, molecular dynamics (MD), molecular docking and energy analyses. Three dimensional structure of whole DKKs was predicted and their interaction with LRP6 was investigated in detail. The results indicated that in DKK family members, a considerable diversity, in the case of structure, activity and physicochemical properties was seen. This diversity was more profound in DKK3 (Dickkopf3). Interestingly, the interaction mode of DKK2 (Dickkopf2) with its receptor, LRP6, was shown to be substantially different from other Dickkopf family members while N-terminal region of this ligand was also involved in the binding to the LRP6-P3P4. Moreover, the cysteine-rich domain 2 (CRD2) of DKK1 and DKK3 had a higher binding affinity to LRP6 in comparison with the whole protein structures.

The current study was designed to explore the role and underlying mechanism of lncRNA taurine up-regulated gene 1 (TUG1) in cardiac hypertrophy. Mice were treated by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery to induce cardiac hypertrophy, and cardiomyocytes were treated by phenylephrine (PE) to induce hypertrophic phenotype. Haematoxylin-eosin (HE), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and immunofluorescence (IF) were used to examine morphological alterations. Real-time PCR, Western blots and IF staining were used to detect the expression of RNAs and proteins. Luciferase assay and RNA pull-down assay were used to verify the interaction. It is revealed that TUG1 was up-regulated in the hearts of mice treated by TAC surgery and in PE-induced cardiomyocytes. Functionally, overexpression of TUG1 alleviated cardiac hypertrophy both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanically, TUG1 sponged and sequestered miR-34a to increase the Dickkopf 1 (DKK1) level, which eventually inhibited the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signalling. In conclusion, the current study reported the protective role and regulatory mechanism of TUG1 in cardiac hypertrophy and suggested that TUG1 may serve as a novel molecular target for treating cardiac hypertrophy. 相似文献

Dickkopf-related protein 4 (DKK4) is a member of the dickkopf family and an inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. This review surveyed the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), copy number variations (CNVs), hypermethylation, regulation mechanism, correlation with clinicopathological parameters and chemotherapeutic resistance of DKK4. The signal pathways involved in DKK4 mainly include Wnt/β-catenin pathway and Wnt-JNK pathway independent β-catenin. DKK4 expression was upregulated in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC), Colorectal Cancer, Gastric Cancer (GC), Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC), while downregulated in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). DKK4 is not only involved in tumour growth, invasion, migration and chemotherapy resistance, but also in osteoblastogenesis and secondary hair or meibomian gland formation. DKK4 has also been linked to schizophrenia. 相似文献

Prostate cancer (CaP) is unique among all cancers in that when it metastasizes to bone, it typically forms osteoblastic lesions (characterized by increased bone production). CaP cells produce many factors, including Wnts that are implicated in tumor-induced osteoblastic activity. In this prospectus, we describe our research on Wnt and the CaP bone phenotype. Wnts are cysteine-rich glycoproteins that mediate bone development in the embryo and promote bone production in the adult. Wnts have been shown to have autocrine tumor effects, such as enhancing proliferation and protecting against apoptosis. In addition, we have recently identified that CaP-produced Wnts act in a paracrine fashion to induce osteoblastic activity in CaP bone metastases. In addition to Wnts, CaP cells express the soluble Wnt inhibitor dickkopf-1 (DKK-1). It appears that DKK-1 production occurs early in the development of skeletal metastases, which results in masking of osteogenic Wnts, thus favoring osteolysis at the metastatic site. As metastases progress, DKK-1 expression decreases allowing for unmasking of Wnt's osteoblastic activity and ultimately resulting in osteosclerosis at the metastatic site. We believe that DKK-1 is one of the switches that transitions the CaP bone metastasis activity from osteolytic to osteoblastic. Wnt/DKK-1 activity fits a model of CaP-induced bone remodeling occurring in a continuum composed of an osteolytic phase, mediated by receptor activator of NFkB ligand (RANKL), parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP) and DKK-1; a transitional phase, where environmental alterations promote expression of osteoblastic factors (Wnts) and decreases osteolytic factors (i.e., DKK-1); and an osteoblastic phase, in which tumor growth-associated hypoxia results in production of vascular endothelial growth factor and endothelin-1, which have osteoblastic activity. This model suggests that targeting both osteolytic activity and osteoblastic activity will provide efficacy for therapy of CaP bone metastases. 相似文献
