Effects of pharmacological primary cilium disturbance in the context of in vitro 2D and 3D malignant pleura mesothelioma. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 654:128-135. [PMID: 36907140 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary cilium (PC) is a single non-motile antenna-like organelle composed of a microtubule core axon originating from the mother centriole of the centrosome. The PC is universal in all mammalian cells and protrudes to the extracellular environment receiving mechanochemical cues that it transmits in the cell. AIM To investigate the role of PC in mesothelial malignancy in the context of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) phenotypes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The effect of pharmacological deciliation [using ammonium sulphate (AS) or chloral hydrate (CH)] and PC elongation [using lithium chloride (LC)] on cell viability, adhesion, and migration (2D cultures) as well as in mesothelial sphere formation, spheroid invasion and collagen gel contraction (3D cultures) was investigated in benign mesothelial MeT-5A cells and in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) cell lines, M14K (epithelioid) and MSTO (biphasic), and primary malignant pleural mesothelioma cells (pMPM). RESULTS Pharmacological deciliation or elongation of the PC significantly affected cell viability, adhesion, migration, spheroid formation, spheroid invasion and collagen gel contraction in MeT-5A, M14K, MSTO cell lines and in pMPM cells compared to controls (no drug treatment). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate a pivotal role of the PC in functional phenotypes of benign mesothelial cells and MPM cells.

HΜGB1/sRAGE levels differ significantly between transudates and exudates. Cytokine 2021; 141:155469. [PMID: 33607399 DOI: 10.1016/j.cyto.2021.155469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2020] [Revised: 01/21/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
High mobility group box 1(HMGB1) protein operates as an alarmin with multiple roles in immunity and cell homeostasis. It is highly expressed in epithelial barrier sites and acts via the binding to the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE). Production of HMGB1 and soluble RAGE (sRAGE), a decoy receptor for HMGB1, has been implicated in several pulmonary diseases, but both have been scarcely investigated in pleural diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the levels of HMGB1 and sRAGE in transudative, malignant and parapneumonic pleural effusions (PEs) and to investigate the effect of low and high HMGB1 pleural fluid levels on MeT-5A cell adhesion, migration and spheroid formation, in each group. HMGB1 and sRAGE levels were significantly lower and higher in transudative PEs compared to malignant and parapneumonic PEs, respectively. Patients above 65 years of age had significantly lower HMGB1 and higher sRAGE levels compared to patients below 65 years old. Furthermore, incubation of MeT-5A cells with malignant or parapneumonic PEs bearing low or high levels of HMGB1 yielded significant differential effects on MeT-5A cell adhesion, migration and spheroid formation. In all types of effusions, high HMGB1 levels correlated with more adherence compared to low HMGB1 levels. In transudative and malignant PEs high HMGB1 levels correlated with decreased migration of MeT-5A cells while in parapneumonic ones the effect was the opposite. Only samples from parapneumonic PEs high in HMGB1 achieved uniform spheroid formation. These results reveal a clinical context-dependent effect of the HMGB1/sRAGE axis in PEs.
