Abstract
In recent decades, the incidence of thyroid cancer keeps growing at a shocking rate, which has aroused increasing concerns worldwide. Autophagy is a fundamental and ubiquitous biological event conserved in mammals including humans. Basically, autophagy is a catabolic process that cellular components including small molecules and damaged organelles are degraded for recycle to meet the energy needs, especially under the extreme conditions. The dysregulated autophagy has indicated to be involved in thyroid cancer progression. The enhancement of autophagy can lead to autophagic cell death during the degradation while the produced energies can be utilized by the rest of the cancerous tissue, thus this influence could be bidirectional, which plays either a tumor-suppressive or oncogenic role. Accordingly, autophagy can be suppressed by therapeutic agents and is thus regarded as a drug target for thyroid cancer treatments. In the present review, a brief description of autophagy and roles of autophagy in tumor context are given. We have addressed summary of the mechanisms and functions of autophagy in thyroid cancer. Some potential autophagy-targeted treatments are also summarized. The aim of the review is linking autophagy to thyroid cancer, so as to develop novel approaches to better control cancer progression.

Abstract
Autophagy inhibitors are currently being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of diverse cancers, largely due to their ability to impede tumor cell survival and metabolic adaptation. More recently, there is growing interest in whether and how modulating autophagy in the host stroma influences tumorigenesis. Fibroblasts play prominent roles in cancer initiation and progression, including depositing type 1 collagen and other extracellular matrix (ECM) components, thereby stiffening the surrounding tissue to enhance tumor cell proliferation and survival, as well as secreting cytokines that modulate angiogenesis and the immune microenvironment. This constellation of phenotypes, pathologically termed desmoplasia, heralds poor prognosis and reduces patient survival. Using mouse mammary cancer models and syngeneic transplantation assays, we demonstrate that genetic ablation of stromal fibroblast autophagy significantly impedes fundamental elements of the stromal desmoplastic response, including collagen and proinflammatory cytokine secretion, extracellular matrix stiffening, and neoangiogenesis. As a result, autophagy in stromal fibroblasts is required for mammary tumor growth in vivo, even when the cancer cells themselves remain autophagy-competent . We propose the efficacy of autophagy inhibition is shaped by this ability of host stromal fibroblast autophagy to support tumor desmoplasia.

Heparin-Binding Protein 17/Fibroblast Growth Factor-Binding Protein-1 Knockout Inhibits Proliferation and Induces Differentiation of Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13112684. [PMID: 34072393 PMCID: PMC8199440 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13112684] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2021] [Revised: 05/20/2021] [Accepted: 05/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) plays an important role in tumor growth by inducing angiogenesis in addition to promoting the proliferation of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells. Heparin-binding protein 17/fibroblast growth factor-binding protein-1 (HBp17/FGFBP-1) purified from A431 cell-conditioned media based on its capacity to bind to FGF-1 and FGF-2 is recognized as a pro-angiogenic molecule as a consequence of its interaction with FGF-2. In this study, we have examined the functional role of HBp17/FGFBP-1 in A431 and HO-1-N-1 cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Our results showed that HBp17/FGFBP-1 knockout inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, and cell motility compared to control. The amount of FGF-2 was decreased in culture medium conditioned by HBp17/FGFBP-1 knockout cells compared to control. We performed cDNA/protein expression analysis followed by Gene Ontology and protein–protein interaction analysis. The results demonstrate that both gene and protein expression related to epidermal development, cornification, and keratinization were upregulated in HBp17/FGFBP-1-knockout A431 and HO-1-N-1 cells. Abstract Heparin-binding protein 17/fibroblast growth factor-binding protein-1 (HBp17/FGFBP-1) has been observed to induce the tumorigenic potential of epithelial cells and is highly expressed in oral cancer cell lines and tissues. It is also recognized as a pro-angiogenic molecule because of its interaction with fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2. In this study, we examined the functional role of HBp17/FGFBP-1 in A431 and HO-1-N-1 cells. Originally, HBp17/FGFBP-1 was purified from A431 cell-conditioned media based on its capacity to bind to FGF-1 and FGF-2. We isolated and established HBp17/FGFBP-1-knockout (KO)-A431 and KO-HO-1-N-1 cell lines using the clusters of regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) gene editing technology. The amount of FGF-2 secreted into conditioned medium decreased for A431-HBp17-KO and HO-1-N-1-HBp17-KO cells compared to their WT counterparts. Functional assessment showed that HBp17/FGFBP-1 KO inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, and cell motility in vitro. It also inhibited tumor growth in vivo compared to controls, which confirmed the significant difference in growth in vitro between HBp17-KO cells and wild-type (WT) cells, indicating that HBp17/FGFBP-1 is a potent therapeutic target in squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). In addition, complementary DNA/protein expression analysis followed by Gene Ontology and protein–protein interaction (PPI) analysis using the Database for Visualization and Integrated Discovery and Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins showed that both gene and protein expression related to epidermal development, cornification, and keratinization were upregulated in A431-HBp17-KO and HO-1-N-1-KO cells. This is the first discovery of a novel role of HBp17/FGFBP-1 that regulates SCC and OSCC cell differentiation.

Isoquercitrin induces apoptosis and autophagy in hepatocellular carcinoma cells via AMPK/mTOR/p70S6K signaling pathway. Aging (Albany NY) 2020; 12:24318-24332.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an aggressive malignancy with high rates of metastasis and relapse. Isoquercitrin (ISO), a natural flavonoid present in the Chinese bayberry and other plant species, reportedly exerts notable inhibitory effects on tumor cell proliferation, though the mechanism is unknown. In the present study, we exposed HepG2 and Huh7 human liver cancer cells to ISO and examined the roles of autophagy and apoptosis in ISO-mediated cell death. We found that ISO exposure inhibited cell viability and colony growth, activated apoptotic pathway, and triggered dysregulated autophagy by activating the AMPK/mTOR/p70S6K pathway. Autophagy inhibition using 3-methyladenine (3-MA) or Atg5-targeted siRNA decreased the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, caspase-3 activation, and PARP cleavage and protected cells against ISO-induced apoptosis. Moreover, autophagy inhibition reversed the upregulation of AMPK phosphorylation and downregulation of mTOR and p70S6K phosphorylation elicited by ISO. By contrast, application of a broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor failed to inhibit autophagy in ISO-treated cells. These data indicate that ISO simultaneously induced apoptosis and autophagy, and abnormal induction of autophagic flux contributed to ISO-triggered caspase-3-dependent apoptosis.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) serve a key role in regulating the cell cycle and inducing tumorigenesis. Subgroup J of the avian leukosis virus (ALV-J) belongs to the family Retroviridae, subfamily Orthoretrovirinae and genus Alpharetrovirus that causes tumors in susceptible chickens. gga-miR-375 is downregulated and Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) is upregulated in ALV-J-induced tumors in the livers of chickens, and it has been further identified that YAP1 is the direct target gene of gga-miR-375. In the present study, it was found that ALV-J infection promoted the cell cycle and proliferation in DF-1 cells. As the cell cycle and cell proliferation are closely associated with tumorigenesis, further experiments were performed to determine whether gga-miR-375 and YAP1 were involved in these cellular processes. It was demonstrated that gga-miR-375 significantly inhibited the cell cycle by inhibiting G1 to S/G2 stage transition and decreasing cell proliferation, while YAP1 significantly promoted the cell cycle and proliferation. Furthermore, these cellular processes in DF-1 cells were affected by gga-miR-375 through the targeting of YAP1. Collectively, the present results suggested that gga-miR-375, downregulated by ALV-J infection, negatively regulated the cell cycle and proliferation via the targeting of YAP1.

Abstract
Autophagy, the process of macromolecular degradation through the lysosome, has been extensively studied for the past decade or two. Autophagy can regulate cell death, especially apoptosis, through selective degradation of both positive and negative apoptosis regulators. However, multiple other programmed cell death pathways exist. As knowledge of these other types of cell death expand, it has been suggested that they also interact with autophagy. In this review, we discuss the molecular mechanisms that comprise three non-apoptotic forms of cell death (necroptosis, pyroptosis and ferroptosis) focusing on how the autophagy machinery regulates these different cell death mechanisms through (i) its degradative functions, i.e., true autophagy, and (ii) other non-degradative functions of the autophagy machinery such as serving as a signaling scaffold or by participating in other autophagy-independent cellular processes.

Abstract
Background Neuroblastoma (NB) is a heterogeneous pediatric malignant tumor with many biological and clinical characteristics. Long non-coding RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (SNHG16) plays vital role in the development of NB. However, the potential mechanism of SNHG16 in the progression of NB is rarely reported. Methods The expression levels of SNHG16, miR-542-3p and autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG5) were measured with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The proliferation, migration and invasion of NB cells were determined using 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-YI)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) or transwell assay. Protein levels of ATG5, microtubule-associated protein A1/1B-light chain3 (LC3-I/II) and p62 were detected by Western blot analysis. The interaction between miR-542-3p and SNHG16 or ATG5 was predicted by starBase and confirmed by dual luciferase reporter assay. Xenograft mice models were constructed to confirm the role of SNHG16 in vivo. Results SNHG16 was upregulated in NB tissues and cells and associated with clinical stage and poor prognosis of NB. Knockdown of SNHG16 impeded proliferation, migration, invasion and autophagy of NB cells in vitro, and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Interestingly, SNHG16 mediated ATG5 expression through sponging miR-542-3p in NB cells. Moreover, miR-542-3p downregulation reversed the inhibitory effects of SNHG16 silencing on proliferation, migration, invasion and autophagy of NB cells. Besides, ATG5 overturned the regulatory effects on proliferation, migration, invasion and autophagy of NB cells induced by SNHG16 or miR-542-3p knockdown. Conclusion SNHG16 facilitated proliferation, migration, invasion and autophagy of NB cells via sponging miR-542-3p and upregulating ATG5 expression in NB.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are critical regulators in various diseases. In the current study, the role of miR-30c-5p in the formation of sodium oxalate-induced kidney stones was investigated. For this purpose, human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) were incubated with sodium oxalate at the concentrations of 100, 250, 500, 750 and 1,000 µM. Cell viability and the miR-30c-5p expression level were respectively measured by CCK-8 assay and RT-qPCR. After separately transfecting miR-30c-5p mimic and inhibitor into the HK-2 cells, the cell apoptotic rate, the levels of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and ROS were determined by flow cytometry. The levels of oxidative stress indicators [lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)] were determined using commercial kits. Crystal-cell adhesion assay was performed to evaluate the crystal adhesion capacity in vitro. miR-30c-5p binding at autophagy related 5 (ATG5) was predicted by TargetScan7.2 and further verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Rescue experiments were performed to confirm the molecular mechanisms underlying sodium oxalate-induced kidney formation in HK-2 cells. The results revealed that sodium oxalate decreased the viability of HK-2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, and that miR-30c-5p expression was significantly downregulated by exposure to 750 µM sodium oxalate. In addition, the increase in cell apoptosis and crystal number, and the upregulated levels of LDH, MDA and ROS were reversed by the overexpression of miR-30c-5p. Moreover, the overexpression of miR-30c-5p upregulated the levels of SOD, CAT and MMP induced by sodium oxalate. ATG5 was directly regulated by miR-30c-5p, and the inhibition of cell cytotoxicity and crystal-cell adhesion induced by miR-30c-5p mimic was blocked by ATG5. These data indicated that the overexpression of miR-30c-5p alleviated cell cytotoxicity and crystal-cell adhesion induced by sodium oxalate through ATG5. Thus, the current study provides a better understanding of the role of miR-30c-5p in sodium oxalate-induced kidney stones.

Abstract
Autophagy (self-eating) is a conserved cellular degradation process that plays important roles in maintaining homeostasis and preventing nutritional, metabolic, and infection-mediated stresses. Autophagy dysfunction can have various pathological consequences, including tumor progression, pathogen hyper-virulence, and neurodegeneration. This review describes the mechanisms of autophagy and its associations with other cell death mechanisms, including apoptosis, necrosis, necroptosis, and autosis. Autophagy has both positive and negative roles in infection, cancer, neural development, metabolism, cardiovascular health, immunity, and iron homeostasis. Genetic defects in autophagy can have pathological consequences, such as static childhood encephalopathy with neurodegeneration in adulthood, Crohn's disease, hereditary spastic paraparesis, Danon disease, X-linked myopathy with excessive autophagy, and sporadic inclusion body myositis. Further studies on the process of autophagy in different microbial infections could help to design and develop novel therapeutic strategies against important pathogenic microbes. This review on the progress and prospects of autophagy research describes various activators and suppressors, which could be used to design novel intervention strategies against numerous diseases and develop therapeutic drugs to protect human and animal health.
