RNAi干扰Ska2对H1299细胞增殖、迁移及侵袭能力的影响

Ska2（spindle and kinetochore associated complex subunit2）,又称FAM33A（family with sequence similarity33,member A）,是新近发现的一个与细胞周期调控和肿瘤发生发展紧密相关的基瓯且与该团队前期发现的新基NPRR11（proline rich 11）共享一个双向启动子。但是,Ska2在肺癌中的具体作用和分子机制仍不清楚。该研究选用肺癌细胞系H1299,采用RNAi技术构建Ska2基因沉默的稳定细胞株,并进行了细胞表型和潜在分子机制分析。RT-PCR和Western blot结果表明,Ska2在mRNA和蛋白质水平上的表达均被有效抑制。细胞增殖、细胞迁移和侵袭实验结果表明,与对照细胞相比,Ska2基因沉默稳定细胞株的细胞增殖能力、细胞迁移和侵袭能力均显著降低。此外,Ska2基因被沉默后,CCNA1基因的表达显著下调。该研究的结果提示,Ska2与其对侧基因PRR11的功能高度相关,可能与PRR11共同参与肺癌细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭行为的调节。

Thrombospondin-4 promotes bladder cancer cell migration and invasion via MMP2 production

Bladder cancer (BC) is the second most common urological tumour in Western countries. Approximately, 80% of patients with BC will present with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), whereas a quarter will have muscle invasive disease (MIBC) at the time of BC diagnosis. However, patients with NMIBC are at risk of BC recurrence or progression into MIBC, and an MIBC prognosis is determined by the presence of progression and metastasis. Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), a type of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), plays a major role in tumour invasion and is well-characterized in BC prognosis. In BC, the mechanisms regulating MMP2 expression, and, in turn, promote cancer invasion, have hardly been explored. Thrombospondin-4 (THBS4/TSP4) is a matricellular glycoprotein that regulates multiple biological functions, including proliferation, angiogenesis, cell adhesion and extracellular matrix modelling. Based on the results of a meta-analysis in the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 database, we observed that TSP4 expression levels were consistent with overall survival (OS) rate and BC progression, with the highest expression levels observed in the advanced stages of BC and associated with poor OS rate. In our pilot experiments, incubation with recombinant TSP4 promoted the migration and invasion in BC cells. Furthermore, MMP2 expression levels increased after recombinant TSP4 incubation. TSP4-induced-MMP2 expression and cell motility were regulated via the AKT signalling pathway. Our findings facilitate further investigation into TSP4 silencing-based therapeutic strategies for BC.     

MiR-143-3p suppresses cell proliferation,migration, and invasion by targeting Melanoma-Associated Antigen A9 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma

Previously we found that melanoma-associated antigen-A9 (MAGE-A9) was a significantly upregulated biomarker in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). A high expression of MAGE-A9 indicates an unfavorable survival outcome, and the MAGE-A9 expression level is an independent prognostic factor of LSCC. To explore the mechanism of MAGE-A9 upregulation, several predicted regulatory microRNAs were screened and validated in LSCC cells. In the current study, we found that miR-143-3p (MAGE-A9 related miRNAs) expression levels correlated negatively with the MAGE-A9 protein expression in LSCC tissues. Dual-luciferase reporter assays and Western blot analysis revealed MAGE-A9 to be a direct target of miR-143-3p. Furthermore, a series of in vitro gain- and loss-of-function assays revealed that miR-143-3p inhibited LSCC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Also, miR-143-3p suppressed LSCC tumorigenesis in vivo. These effects were clinically relevant, as a lower expression of miR-143-3p occurred in severer clinical stages and represented poor overall survival in patients with LSCC. Taken together, these results suggest that downregulation of miR-143-3p contributes to tumor progression through upregulation of MAGE-A9. The expression level of these two key molecules maintained LSCC progression, thus, highlighting the potential of miR-143-3p as a therapeutic target for human LSCC.     

S100B promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of specific brain metastatic lung adenocarcinoma cell line

Brain metastasis frequently occurs in cancer patients and is associated with a poor prognosis. We previously reported that S100B was highly expressed in PC14/B, a specific brain metastatic lung adenocarcinoma cell line, which suggests that it is associated with brain metastasis of lung cancer. However, the role of S100B in brain metastasis remains to be elucidated. In this study, using PC14/B cell line, we found that siRNA mediated depletion of S100B in PC14/B cells led to notable differences in cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle progression, colony formation ability, cell migratory and invasive activity compared with the mock-transfected cells. Therefore, our data suggest that S100B promotes the brain metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma by promoting cell proliferation, preventing apoptosis and increasing cell migration and invasion.
