Aberrant expression of the tripartite motif containing 59 (TRIM59) has been reported to participate in the development and progression of various human cancers. However, its expression pattern and cellular roles in pancreatic cancer (PC) remains unclear. In our study, we found that TRIM59 expression was significantly increased in PC tissues and was positively correlated with several malignant behaviors and poor overall survival of PC patients based on bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemistry staining. Functionally, small interfering RNA–mediated TRIM59 depletion inhibited cell proliferation and migration in vitro, while TRIM59 overexpression promoted cell proliferation and migration in vitro and drove tumor growth and liver metastasis in vivo. Mechanically, TRIM59 was found to enhance glycolysis through activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, ultimately contributing to PC progression. Taken together, our results demonstrate that TRIM59 may be a potential predictor for PC and promotes PC progression via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR-glycolysis signaling pathway, which establishes the rationale for targeting the TRIM59-related pathways to treat PC. 相似文献

The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway is conserved across animals, and knowledge of its roles during the molt cycle in crustaceans is presently very limited. This study investigates the roles of the TGF-β receptor in molting-related muscle growth in Eriocheir sinensis. Using the RT-PCR and RACE techniques, we obtained a 1722 bp cDNA sequence encoding a transforming growth factor-β type I receptor in Eriocheir sinensis, designated EsTGFBRI, which contains a 124 bp 5′-untranslated region, a 20 bp partial 3′-untranslated region and a 1578 bp open reading frame encoding 525 amino acids. The deduced EsTGFBRI contains an N-terminal 24 amino acid signal peptide, an activin type I and II receptor domain, a transmembrane helix region, a glycine-serine-rich motif, and a conserved serine/threonine kinase catalytic domain including an activation loop. The qRT-PCR results showed that EsTGFBRI gene was highly expressed in the intermolt testis and ovary in mature crabs. In juvenile crabs, the mRNA levels of EsTGFBRI in claw and abdominal muscles in the later premolt D3–4 stage were significantly higher than those in the intermolt C and postmolt A–B stages. There was no significant change in EsTGFBRI mRNA levels in walking leg muscles during the molt cycle. The results suggest that EsTGFBRI is probably play roles in molting-related muscle growth in E. sinensis. This study provides a necessary basis for elucidating the functions of TGF-β-like signaling mediated by TGFBRI in molting-related muscle growth in crustaceans.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common and leading malignancies globally. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) function as potentially critical regulator in colorectal cancer. LINC01234, a novel lncRNA in tumor biology, regulates the progression of various tumors. However, the tumorigenic mechanism of LINC01234 in colorectal cancer is still unclear. This study was performed with the aim to prospectively investigate clinical significance, effect, and mechanism of lncRNA LINC01234 in colorectal cancer. First, we found that LINC01234, localized in the cytoplasm, was increased in both colorectal cancer cell lines and tissues. Subsequent functional assays suggested LINC01234 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of colorectal cancer cells, while blocked cell cycle and induced cell apoptosis. Moreover, we identified that miR-1284 was target of LINC01234, we further demonstrated a negative correlation with LINC01234 in colorectal cancer tissues and cells. Furthermore, miR-1284 targeted and suppressed tumor necrosis factor receptor–associated factor 6 (TRAF6). Loss-of-function assay revealed that LINC01234 silencing suppressed colorectal cancer progression through inhibition of miR-1284. In vivo subcutaneous xenotransplanted tumor model indicated LINC01234 knockdown inhibited in vivo tumorigenic ability of colorectal cancer via downregulation of TRAF6. Collectively, this study clarified the biological significance of LINC01234/miR-1284/TRAF6 axis in colorectal cancer progression, providing insights into LINC01234 as novel potential therapeutic target for colorectal cancer therapeutic from bench to clinic. 相似文献
