Osteosarcoma (OS) is a rare malignancy of bone associated with poor clinical outcomes. The antitumor effects of GANT61 on OS is unclear. To investigate antitumor effects and mechanism of GANT61 in OS cells and xenograft model. Effects of GANT61 on cell viability, clone formation, cell cycle, apoptosis, migration, and invasion ability of OS cells were assessed. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels measured by dichlorofluorescein fluorescence were used to evaluate oxidative stress. The Xenograft model was constructed to investigate the antitumor effects of GANT61 in vivo. The microRNA (miRNA)-1286 was downregulated, while RAB31 upregulated in OS tissues and cells. GANT61 inhibited viability, migration, and invasion ability of OS cells (SaOS-2 and U2OS), and induced apoptosis and the ROS production, along with miRNA-1286 upregulation and RAB13 downregulation. After knockdown of miRNA-1286, GANT6-induced cell inhibition was attenuated, along with RAB31 upregulation. Inversely, miRNA-1286 overexpression downregulated RAB31. Dual-luciferase reporter assay verified that miR-1286 negatively targeted RAB13. Moreover, the knockdown of RAB31 stimulated apoptosis and ROS production while inhibited viability, migration, and invasion of GANT61-treated cells. In vivo experiments further confirmed that GANT61 inhibited tumor growth and RAB13 expression, but enhanced miRNA-1286. The study demonstrated that GANT61 inhibited cell aggressive phenotype and tumor growth by inducing oxidative stress through the miRNA-1286/RAB31 axis. Our findings provided a potential antitumor agent for the OS clinical treatment.  相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is often treated with doxorubicin. MicroRNAs have been shown to have important regulatory roles in cancer and serve as a target in chemoresistance. In this study, we investigated the effects of specific microRNA-200a (miR-200a) on HCC tumor cell growth and effect of doxorubicin-mediated cytotoxicity. Our results show miR-200a is downregulated in human HCC and HCC tumor cell lines. Increasing miR-200a expression inhibited HCC growth and synergized with the antitumor effects of doxorubicin. Inhibiting endogenous miR-200a promoted tumor growth and chemotherapeutic resistance. Increasing miR-200a expression inhibited tumor metabolism (ATP production, mitochondrial respiration, glycolysis), while inhibition of endogenous miR-200a reversed these effects. MiR-200a expression also increased autophagy and synergized with doxorubicin-mediated cytotoxicity. This study identifies a novel role of miR-200a in potentiating doxorubicin-mediated therapeutic effects in HCC.  相似文献

Oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) viruses armed with immunomodulatory transgenes have shown potential for enhanced antitumor therapy by overcoming tumor-based immune suppression and promoting antitumor effector cell development. Previously, we reported that the new oncolytic HSV-1 virus, OncSyn (OS), engineered to fuse tumor cells, prevented tumor growth and metastasis to distal organs in the 4T1/BALB/c immunocompetent breast cancer mouse model, suggesting the elicitation of antitumor immune responses (Israyelyan et al., Hum. Gen. Ther. 18:5, 2007, and Israyelyan et al., Virol. J. 5:68, 2008). The OSV virus was constructed by deleting the OS viral host shutoff gene (vhs; UL41) to further attenuate the virus and permit dendritic cell activation and antigen presentation. Subsequently, the OSVP virus was constructed by inserting into the OSV viral genome a murine 15-prostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) expression cassette, designed to constitutively express 15-PGDH upon infection. 15-PGDH is a tumor suppressor protein and the primary enzyme responsible for the degradation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which is known to promote tumor development. OSVP, OSV, and OS treatment of 4T1 tumors in BALB/c mice effectively reduced primary tumor growth and inhibited metastatic development of secondary tumors. OSVP was able to significantly inhibit the development and accumulation of 4T1 metastatic tumor cells in the lungs of treated mice. Ex vivo analysis of immune cells following treatment showed increased inflammatory cytokine production and the presence of mature dendritic cells for the OSVP, OSV, and OS viruses. A statistically significant decrease in splenic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) was observed only for OSVP-treated mice. These results show that intratumoral oncolytic herpes is highly immunogenic and suggest that 15-PGDH expression by OSVP enhanced the antitumor immune response initiated by viral infection of primary tumor cells, leading to reduced development of pulmonary metastases. The availability of the OSVP genome as a bacterial artificial chromosome allows for the rapid insertion of additional immunomodulatory genes that could further assist in the induction of potent antitumor immune responses against primary and metastatic tumors.  相似文献

Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that there is critical involvement of miRNAs in the initiation and progression of cancers. Here, we showed that miR-323a-3p was significantly down-regulated in osteosarcoma (OS) tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-323a-3p decreased the cell viability, colon formation and induced the apoptosis of OS cells. Using bioinformatics analysis, lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) was predicted as one of the down-steam targets of miR-323a-3p. Highly expressed miR-323a-3p significantly decreased both the mRNA and protein levels of LDHA. Inverse correlation between the expression of LDHA and miR-323a-3p was observed in OS tissues. Consistent with the function of LDHA in glycolysis of cancer cells, overexpression of miR-323a-3p attenuated the lactate production of OS cells. These results demonstrated that miR-323a-3p suppressed the growth of OS cells via targeting LDHA and inhibited the glycolysis of OS. This study provides insight into the molecular mechanism of miR-323a-3p in regulating OS.  相似文献

BackgroundOsteosarcoma (OS) is a primary malignant tumor of the bone that occurs in adolescents and is characterized by a young age at onset, high malignancy, high rate of metastasis, and poor prognosis. However, the factors influencing disease progression and prognosis remain unclear.MethodsIn this study, we aimed to investigate the role of chondrocyte-derived exosomal miR-195 in OS. We used normal human chondrocytes to form miR-195-carrying exosomes to deliver miR-195 into OS cells. Xenograft tumor experiments were performed in mice intratumorally injected with exosomal miR-195. We found that kinesin superfamily protein 4A (KIF4A) promoted OS tumor progression and anti-apoptotic.ResulesWe demonstrated that miR-195 inhibited the expression of KIF4A by directly targeting its 3’-untranslated region. Moreover, we observed that exosomal miR-195 successfully inhibited OS cell tumor growth and antiapoptotic in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in vivo.ConclusionCollectively, these results demonstrate that normal human chondrocyte-derived exosomal miR-195 can be internalized by OS cells and inhibit tumor growth and antiapoptotic by targeting KIF4A, providing a new direction for clarifying the molecular mechanism underlying OS development.  相似文献

Based on literature data on effects of various preparations on the glycolysis in tumor and normal cells, a glycolytic molecular biochemical marker is proposed to screen chemical substances as potential antitumor drugs. A glycolytic specificity was noted in tumor cells which was regarded as a criterion for distinction of tumor cells from normal ones and among various histotypes of tumor cells as well as for the selective sensitivity of tumor cells to a substance. 17 of 38 substances tested were observed to inhibit glycolysis in tumor cells. The testing chemical substances for an antitumor activity with application of the glycolytic marker is recommended. A possibility is discussed of applying the marker for testing potential antitumor drugs, their individualization, and genetic typing.  相似文献

The effect of glycolysis remains largely elusive in acute T lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Increasing evidence has indicated that the dysregulation of miRNAs is involved in glycolysis, by targeting the genes coding glycolysis rate-limiting enzymes. In our previous studies, we found that overexpression of the ARRB1-derived miR-223 sponge repressed T-ALL progress and reduced the expression of miR-652-5p. However, little is known about miR-652-5p on T-ALL. Here, we showed that impaired miR-652-5p expression inhibited growth, promoted apoptosis of T-ALL cells in vitro and prolonged overall survival (OS) in vivo. Based on the GO enrichment of miR-652-5p target genes, we uncovered that impaired miR-652-5p decreased glycolysis, including reduced the lactate, pyruvate, ATP level and the total extracellular acidification rate (ECAR), elevated oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in T-ALL cell lines. Mechanically, miR-652-5p targeted the 3ʹUTR of Tigar mRNA and inhibited its expression. Furthermore, the alteration of glycosis level was attributed to Tigar overexpression, consistent with the effect of impaired miR-652-5p. Additionally, Tigar suppressed the expression of PFKFB3, a glycolysis rate-limiting enzyme, in vivo and in vitro. Taken together, our results demonstrate that impaired miR-652-5p/Tigar axis could repress glycolysis, thus to slow growth of T-ALL cells, which support miR-652-5p as a novel potential drug target for T-ALL therapeutics.Subject terms: Paediatric cancer, Mechanisms of disease  相似文献

Diallyl disulfide (DADS), a volatile component of garlic oil, exerts anticancer activity in various types of cancers, while its anticancer effects against osteosarcoma (OS) have not been previously explored. This study aimed to investigate the anticancer potential of DADS in OS and to explore the underlying mechanisms. DADS reduced the cell viability and increased the expression of miR-134 in OS cell lines, and this effect was in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, in vitro functional assays revealed that DADS significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of human OS U2OS and MG-63 cells, which was partially reversed by miR-134 inhibitor transfection. DADS exhibited in vivo antitumor activity and upregulated miR-134 expression in xenograft tumors. Downregulation of miR-134 attenuated DADS-induced antitumor capacity. Further bioinformatics prediction analysis revealed that the 3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) of Forkhead Box M1 (FOXM1) harbored miR-134-binding sites, and overexpression of miR-134 repressed the luciferase activity of the reporting vector containing FOXM1 3′-UTR. Both miR-134 overexpression and DADS inhibited FOXM1 expression in U2OS cells, while enforced expression of FOXM1 suppressed DADS-induced antiproliferation and anti-invasion capacity in U2OS cells. Furthermore, DADS treatment led to significant downregulation of cyclin D1, c-myc, and lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 expression, but the remarkably upregulated p21 level in U2OS cells. Collectively, DADS could be a promising anticancer agent for OS, and the underlying mechanisms might be associated with the antiproliferation and anti-invasion properties through upregulating miR-134 expression.  相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most prevalent bone malignancy in childhood and adolescence, with highly aggressive and early systemic metastases. Here, we reported that celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor in the NSAID class, exhibits strong antitumor activity in dose dependent manner in two OS cell lines-143B and U2OS. We showed that celecoxib inhibits OS cell growth, causes G0/G1-phase arrest, modulates apoptosis and autophagy and reduces migration in OS cells. In addition, the results of fluorescent mitochondrial probe JC-1 test indicated that the mitochondrial pathway mediates celecoxib-induced apoptosis. Significantly, the autophagy inhibitor CQ combined with celecoxib causes greater cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis. Pharmacologic inhibition of autophagy with another potent autophagy inhibitor SAR405 also enhances celecoxib-mediated suppression of cell viability. These results were confirmed with shRNAs targeting the autophagy-related gene Atg5. In OS tumor xenografts in vivo, celecoxib also presents antitumor activity. Taken together, our results shed light on the function and mechanism of antitumor action of celecoxib for treatment of OS patients.  相似文献

Therapy with repeated intratumoral and perilymphatic administration of relatively low doses of polyethylene-glycol(PEG)-modified interleukin-2 (IL-2) in the syngeneic guinea pig line 10 (L10) hepatocarcinoma results in significant local tumor growth inhibition and a delay in development of regional lymph node metastases of more than 3 weeks when compared to controls. Occasionally animals are cured of tumor. The mechanism of this antitumor activity was studied. The antitumor activity of locoregionally administered PEG-IL-2 was abrogated by pretreatment with polyclonal anti-thymocyte serum, indicating that the observed tumor growth inhibition was a T-cell-mediated phenomenon. Besides the locoregional tumor growth inhibition, a systemic effect was recorded as the growth of a second tumor cell inoculum at the contralateral side was inhibited as well. Furthermore, those animals cured after PEG-IL-2 therapy developed specific immunity against the L10 tumor and this immunity could be transferred to naive animals by spleen cells. Immunohistological observations of the tumor site revealed a slight increase of helper and cytotoxic T cell subpopulations after PEG-IL-2 therapy. More pronounced, however, was the rise in number of eosinophilic granulocytes present in the stroma surrounding the tumor cells. Involvement of cytotoxic cells in the antitumor effects of PEG-IL-2 could not be demonstrated: regional lymph node cells and spleen cells obtained immediately after therapy (day 15) or on day 21 showed no cytotoxic activity in vitro against L10, K562, Daudi and line 1 (L1) target cells.In conclusion, locoregional therapy with PEG-IL-2 induced a systemic T-cell-mediated antitumor response. As no cytotoxic T cell activity was measured, however, the underlying mechanism is most likely a T-helper response. Eosinophils at the tumor site may be tumoricidal but further experiments must reveal the role of these cells in the PEG-IL-2-induced tumor regression.  相似文献

Albendazole (ABZ) has an anti-tumor ability and inhibits HIF-1α activity. HIF-1α is associated with glycolysis and vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) expression, which plays an important role in cancer progression. These clues indicate that ABZ exerts an anti-cancer effect by regulating glycolysis and VEGF expression. The aim of this study is to clarify the effects of ABZ on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. The expression levels of HIF-1α and VEGF were detected using western blot analysis, and the effect of ABZ on glycolysis was evaluated by measuring the relative activities of hexokinase (HK), pyruvate kinase (PK), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and detecting the production of lactate in A549 and H1299 cells. The results showed that ABZ decreased the expression levels of HIF-1α and VEGF and suppressed glycolysis in under hypoxia, but not normoxic condition. Inhibiting HIF-1α also suppressed glycolysis and VEGF expression. Additionally, ABZ inhibited the volume and weight, decreased the relative activities of HK, PK, and LDH, and reduced the levels of HIF-1α and VEGF of A549 xenografts in mouse models. In conclusion, ABZ inhibited growth of NSCLC cells by suppressing HIF-1α-dependent glycolysis and VEGF expression.  相似文献

BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor with limited treatment options. Conventional antitumor therapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to limit tumor progression has gradually become the focus of complementary and alternative therapies for HCC treatment. The Fuzheng Jiedu Xiaoji formulation (FZJDXJ) alleviates the clinical symptoms of patients and inhibits tumor progression, but its curative effect still requires extensive clinical research and mechanistic analysis.PurposeTo explore the effectiveness of FZJDXJ in HCC patients and investigate its biological function and mechanism underlying anticancer therapy.MethodsThis randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled 291 HCC patients receiving transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) therapy; patients received either FZJDXJ combined with standard treatment, or standard treatment alone, for 48 weeks. Statistical analyses were performed according to survival time at the end of the trial. The main constituents of the FZJDXJ extracts were identified and evaluated using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) and molecular docking. The antitumor effects of FZJDXJ and its specific biological mechanism of action were studied.ResultsAfter 48 weeks of treatment, one-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were significantly different between the two groups. Co-administration of FZJDXJ and TACE prolonged the OS of HCC patients, especially in BCLC A or B stage. FZJDXJ and TACE treatment effectively extended the PFS of patients, especially in the BCLC B stage. HPLC-MS/MS identified 1619 active constituents of FZJDXJ, including formononetin, chlorogenic acid (CGA), caffeic acid, luteolin, gallic acid, diosgenin, ergosterol endoperoxide, and lupeol, which may function through the AKT/CyclinD1/p21/p27 pathways. Through molecular docking, CGA and gallic acid could effectively combine with Thr308, an important phosphorylation site of AKT1. FZJDXJ inhibited tumor growth in nude mice. In vitro, FZJDXJ-mediated serum inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of liver cancer cells, and promoted cell apoptosis.ConclusionClinically, FZJDXJ combined with TACE therapy significantly prolonged OS and PFS and reduced the mortality rate of HCC patients. Mechanistically, FZJDXJ effectively inhibited the proliferation and migration of liver cancer cells through the modulation of the AKT/CyclinD1/p21/p27 pathways, and may be a promising TCM drug for anti-HCC therapy.  相似文献

Type IV collagenase plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis through cleaving type IV collagen in the basement membrane and extracellular matrix. In this study a molecule-downsized immunoconjugate (Fab'-LDM) was constructed by linking lidamycin (LDM), a highly potent antitumor antibiotic, to the Fab' fragment of a monoclonal antibody directed against type IV collagenase and its antitumor effect was investigated. As assayed in 10% SDS-PAGE gel, the molecular weight of Fab'-LDM conjugate was 65 kD with a 1 : 1 molecular ratio of Fab' and LDM. The Fab'-LDM conjugate maintained most part of the immunoreactivity of Fab' fragment to both type IV collagense and mouse hepatoma 22 cells by ELISA. By MTT assay, Fab'-LDM conjugate showed more potent cytotoxicity to hepatoma 22 cells than that of LDM. Administered intravenously, Fab'-LDM conjugate proved to be more effective against the growth of subcutaneously transplanted hepatoma 22 in mice than free LDM in two experiment settings.

Triptolide (TP),a traditional Chinese medicine,has been reported to be effective in thetreatment of autoimmune diseases and exerting antineoplastic activity in several human tumor cell lines.Thisstudy investigates the antitumor effect of TP in human colon cancer cells (SW114) and myelocytic leukemia(K562),and elucidates the possible molecular mechanism involved.SW114 and K562 cells were treatedwith different doses of TP (0,5,10,20,or 50 ng/ml).The cell viability was assessed by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). Results demonstrated that TP inhibited the proliferation ofboth tumor cell lines in a dose-dependent manner.To further investigate its mechanisms,the productsprostaglandin E_2 (PGE2) and nitric oxide (NO) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Our data showed that TP strongly inhibited the production of NO and PGE_2. Consistent with theseresults,the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was up-regulatedboth at the mRNA level and the protein expression level,as shown by real-time RT-PCR and Westernblotting.These results indicated that the inhibition of the inflammatory factor COX-2 and iNOS activitycould be involved in the antitumor mechanisms of TP.  相似文献

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common urologic malignant tumors. Current chemotherapy is not effective in RCC and results in some side effects. Resveratrol (RSV) has been reported to exert antitumor effects in some cancer cells; however the mechanism is not fully understood. Herein, we aimed to determine the anticancer effect of RSV on RCC and further explore the underlying molecular mechanism in this process. We found that RSV inhibited tumor cells proliferation, migration and invasion and increased apoptosis of RCC either in vivo or in vitro. RSV significantly down-regulated expressions of NLRP3 and its downstream genes. Inhibition of NLRP3 by NLRP3 small interfering RNA mimicked the effects of RSV on RCC cells. These results suggested that RSV could exert antitumor effect by depressing activity of NLRP3, and NLRP3 would be a promising clinical therapeutic strategy for RCC.  相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the leading primary malignant bone tumor in children and young adults. It is response for a high mortality rate. Nowadays, few researches have been performed on sorafenib against OS and no tools are available to guide the use of sorafenib in the OS treatment. In this study, we aim to investigate the effect of sorafenib on OS cell MG63 and figure the potential effective molecular pathway of its function. In the present study, we performed assays of cell proliferation, RT-PCR, and western blot to investigate the effect of sorafenib on OS MG63 cells and to elucidate the molecular actions of sorafenib against RTKs VEGFR2 and RET, as well as MEK/ERK signaling pathway. The present study confirmed that sorafenib could inhibit the proliferation of OS MG63 cells and caused a series of biomolecule effects, including the change of VEGFR2 and ERK gene expression, and the phosphorylation alteration of VEGFR2, RET, and MEK1 proteins. VEGFR2, RET, and MEK/ERK signaling pathway are involved in the pharmacological mechanism of sorafenib. They are potential candidate targets for OS treatment.  相似文献
