The nucleolar phase of signal recognition particle assembly. Life Sci Alliance 2024; 7:e202402614. [PMID: 38858088 PMCID: PMC11165425 DOI: 10.26508/lsa.202402614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The signal recognition particle is essential for targeting transmembrane and secreted proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum. Remarkably, because they work together in the cytoplasm, the SRP and ribosomes are assembled in the same biomolecular condensate: the nucleolus. How important is the nucleolus for SRP assembly is not known. Using quantitative proteomics, we have investigated the interactomes of SRP components. We reveal that SRP proteins are associated with scores of nucleolar proteins important for ribosome biogenesis and nucleolar structure. Having monitored the subcellular distribution of SRP proteins upon controlled nucleolar disruption, we conclude that an intact organelle is required for their proper localization. Lastly, we have detected two SRP proteins in Cajal bodies, which indicates that previously undocumented steps of SRP assembly may occur in these bodies. This work highlights the importance of a structurally and functionally intact nucleolus for efficient SRP production and suggests that the biogenesis of SRP and ribosomes may be coordinated in the nucleolus by common assembly factors.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with colorectal cancer (CRC); however, CRC-related linc00239 functions have not been fully elucidated. Prognostic analysis of patients with CRC with linc00239 overexpression was performed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Cell Counting Kit-8 and Transwell were used to determine linc00239 functions for CRC cells. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction network was used to screen target miRNAs and mRNAs regulated by linc00239. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting were used to confirm the miRNA and mRNA expression. Furthermore, a miRNA inhibitor was transfected into CRC cells, and cell function was evaluated. Results indicated a high linc00239 expression in the tumor tissue of patients with CRC. Transfection of linc00239 siRNA into SW480 and LOVO cells decreased cell proliferation, cell migration, and invasion. MiR-182-5p/metadherin (MTDH) axis is a downstream pathway of linc00239. MTDH expression, the activity of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, which were suppressed by linc00239 siRNA, were partially attenuated when linc00239 siRNA and miR-182-5p inhibitor were co-transfected into the CRC cells. Furthermore, miR-182-5p expression was decreased and MTDH expression was promoted in CRC tissues. Altogether, linc00239 may promote CRC development through the miR-182-5p/MTDH axis.

Transl Oncol 2024; 39:101837. [PMID: 37984255 PMCID: PMC10689956 DOI: 10.1016/j.tranon.2023.101837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program that consists of the loss of epithelial features concomitant with the acquisition of mesenchymal features. Activation of EMT in cancer facilitates the acquisition of aggressive traits and cancer invasion. EMT plasticity (EMP), the dynamic transition between multiple hybrid states in which cancer cells display both epithelial and mesenchymal markers, confers survival advantages for cancer cells in constantly changing environments during metastasis. METHODS RNAseq analysis was performed to assess genome-wide transcriptional changes in cancer cells depleted for histone regulators FLASH, NPAT, and SLBP. Quantitative PCR and Western blot were used for the detection of mRNA and protein levels. Computational analysis was performed on distinct sets of genes to determine the epithelial and mesenchymal score in cancer cells and to correlate FLASH expression with EMT markers in the CCLE collection. RESULTS We demonstrate that loss of FLASH in cancer cells gives rise to a hybrid E/M phenotype with high epithelial scores even in the presence of TGFβ, as determined by computational methods using expression of predetermined sets of epithelial and mesenchymal genes. Multiple genes involved in cell-cell junction formation are similarly specifically upregulated in FLASH-depleted cells, suggesting that FLASH acts as a repressor of the epithelial phenotype. Further, FLASH expression in cancer lines is inversely correlated with the epithelial score. Nonetheless, subsets of mesenchymal markers were distinctly up-regulated in FLASH, NPAT, or SLBP-depleted cells. CONCLUSIONS The ZEB1low/SNAILhigh/E-cadherinhigh phenotype described in FLASH-depleted cancer cells is driving a hybrid E/M phenotype in which epithelial and mesenchymal markers coexist.

AEG-1 as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Colon Cancer: A Study from Silencing AEG-1 in BALB/c Mice to Large Data Analysis. Curr Gene Ther 2024; 24:307-320. [PMID: 38783530 DOI: 10.2174/0115665232273077240104045022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) is overexpressed in various malignancies. Exostosin-1 (EXT-1), a tumor suppressor, is an intermediate for malignant tumors. Understanding the mechanism behind the interaction between AEG-1 and EXT-1 may provide insights into colon cancer metastasis. METHODS AOM/DSS was used to induce tumor in BALB/c mice. Using an in vivo-jetPEI transfection reagent, transient transfection of AEG-1 and EXT-1 siRNAs were achieved. Histological scoring, immunohistochemical staining, and gene expression studies were performed from excised tissues. Data from the Cancer Genomic Atlas and GEO databases were obtained to identify the expression status of AEG-1 and itsassociation with the survival. RESULTS In BALB/c mice, the AOM+DSS treated mice developed necrotic, inflammatory and dysplastic changes in the colon with definite clinical symptoms such as loss of goblet cells, colon shortening, and collagen deposition. Administration of AEG-1 siRNA resulted in a substantial decrease in the disease activity index. Mice treated with EXT-1 siRNA showed diffusely reduced goblet cells. In vivo investigations revealed that PTCH-1 activity was influenced by upstream gene AEG-1, which in turn may affect EXT-1 activity. Data from The Cancer Genomic Atlas and GEO databases confirmed the upregulation of AEG-1 and downregulation of EXT-1 in cancer patients. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that AEG-1 silencing might alter EXT-1 expression indirectly through PTCH-1, influencing cell-ECM interactions, and decreasing dysplastic changes, proliferation and invasion.

Abstract
The incidence of intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer, has steadily increased over the past decades. The Hippo pathway is involved in cell proliferation, tissue and organ damage, energy metabolism, tumor formation, and other physiologic processes. Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death characterized by the accumulation of iron and lipid peroxides. The Hippo pathway and ferroptosis are associated with various intestinal diseases; however, the crosstalk between them is unclear. This review elaborates on the current research on the Hippo pathway and ferroptosis in the context of intestinal diseases. We summarized the connection between the Hippo pathway and ferroptosis to elucidate the underlying mechanism by which these pathways influence intestinal diseases. We speculate that a mutual regulatory mechanism exists between the Hippo pathway and ferroptosis and these two pathways interact in several ways to regulate intestinal diseases.

Abstract
Astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) is an important oncogene that overexpresses in gliomas and plays a vital role in their occurrence and progression. However, few reports have shown which biomarkers could reflect the level of AEG-1 expression in vivo so far. In recent years, intracellular metabolites monitored by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) as non-invasive imaging biomarkers have been applied to the precise diagnosis and therapy feedback of gliomas. Therefore, understanding the correlation between 1H MRS metabolites and AEG-1 gene expression in U251 cells may help to identify relevant biomarkers. This study constructed three monoclonal AEG-1-knockout U251 cell lines using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) /Cas9 technique and evaluated the biological behaviors and metabolite ratios of these cell lines. With the decline in AEG-1 expression, the apoptosis rate of the AEG-1-knockout cell lines increased. At the same time, the metastatic capacities decreased, and the relative contents of total choline (tCho) and lactate (Lac) were also reduced. In conclusion, deviations in AEG-1 expression influence the apoptosis rate and metastasis capacity of U251 cells, which the 1H MRS metabolite ratio could monitor. The tCho/creatinine(Cr) and Lac/Cr ratios positively correlated with the AEG-1 expression and malignant cell behavior. This study may provide potential biomarkers for accurate preoperative diagnosis and future AEG-1-targeting treatment evaluation of gliomas in vivo.

Recent Clinical Treatment and Basic Research on the Alveolar Bone. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11030843.

Abstract
The periodontal ligament is located between the bone (alveolar bone) and the cementum of the tooth, and it is connected by tough fibers called Sharpey’s fibers. To maintain healthy teeth, the foundation supporting the teeth must be healthy. Periodontal diseases, also known as tooth loss, cause the alveolar bone to dissolve. The alveolar bone, similar to the bones in other body parts, is repeatedly resorbed by osteoclasts and renewed by osteogenic cells. This means that an old bone is constantly being resorbed and replaced by a new bone. In periodontal diseases, the alveolar bone around the teeth is absorbed, and as the disease progresses, the alveolar bone shrinks gradually. In most cases, the resorbed alveolar bone does not return to its original form even after periodontal disease is cured. Gum covers the tooth surface so that it matches the shape of the resorbed alveolar bone, exposing more of the tooth surface than before, making the teeth look longer, leaving gaps between the teeth, and in some cases causing teeth to sting. Previously, the only treatment for periodontal diseases was to stop the disease from progressing further before the teeth fell out, and restoration to the original condition was almost impossible. However, a treatment method that can help in the regeneration of the supporting tissues of the teeth destroyed by periodontal diseases and the restoration of the teeth to their original healthy state as much as possible is introduced. Recently, with improvements in implant material properties, implant therapy has become an indispensable treatment method in dentistry and an important prosthetic option. Treatment methods and techniques, which are mainly based on experience, have gradually accumulated scientific evidence, and the number of indications for treatment has increased. The development of bone augmentation methods has contributed remarkably to the expansion of indications, and this has been made possible by various advances in materials science. The induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS) cell technology for regenerating periodontal tissues, including alveolar bone, is expected to be applied in the treatment of diseases, such as tooth loss and periodontitis. This review focuses on the alveolar bone and describes clinical practice, techniques, and the latest basic research.

Abstract
The incidence of cancer is increasing worldwide and is becoming the most common cause of death. Identifying new biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis is important for developing cancer treatment strategies and reducing mortality. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-coding, single-stranded RNAs that play an important role as oncogenes or tumor suppressors in the occurrence and development of human tumors. Abnormal expression of human leukocyte antigen complex group 18 (HCG18) is observed in many types of cancer, and its imbalance is closely related to cancer progression. HCG18 regulates cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and anti-apoptosis through a variety of mechanisms. Therefore, HCG18 is a potential tumor biomarker and therapeutic target. However, the therapeutic significance of HCG18 has not been well studied, and future research may develop new intervention strategies to combat cancer. In this study, we reviewed the biological function, mechanism, and potential clinical significance of HCG18 in various cancers to provide a reference for future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transgenic C57BL/6-APC(Min/+) spontaneous cancer mouse model and the Azoxymethane (AOM)/Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS) chemically induced orthotopic colorectal cancer mouse model represented distinct pathogenesis of colorectal cancers. Our previous study revealed that the combination of Rapamycin liposomes (Rapa/Lps) and 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) has anti-colorectal cancer effects. However, the therapeutic efficacy of Rapa/Lps and 5-FU in other colorectal cancer mice models is yet to be thoroughly explored. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-tumor effect of Rapa/Lps combined with 5-FU in vivo and in vitro. METHODS In this study, we evaluated the effect of Rapa/Lps and 5-FU on APC (Min/+) mice and AOM/DSS-induced colorectal cancer mice. The small intestine, colorectum, serum, and plasma of mice in each group were collected following sacrifice to record the number of tumors. HE staining was utilized for observing pathological damage to intestine tissues. Tube formation assay, Transwell assay, wound healing assay, Western Blot were used to explore the anti-angiogenesis effect of drugs in HUVECs. RESULTS As expected, Rapa/Lps and 5-FU significantly suppressed tumor formation, decreased the number of tumors, and tumor load both in two mouse models, and had no influence on mouse weight. Mechanically, the anti-tumor effect of the drug also was associated in inhibiting angiogenesis and proliferation. Furthermore, we found that Rapa/Lps obviously inhibited HUVECs tube formation and migration. CONCLUSION Altogether, we revealed the Rapa/Lps synergism with 5-FU decreased colon and small intestinal tumorigenesis in AOM/DSS-treated and APC (Min/+) mice, respectively, and correlated with anti-angiogenesis.

Abstract
RNA methylation modifications, especially m6A mRNA modification, are known to be extensively involved in tumor development. However, the relationship between N3-methylcytidine (m3C) related genes and tumorigenesis has rarely been studied. In this research, we found that m3C-related genes were expressed at different levels and affected patients’ prognosis across multiple cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas and multi-omics levels. Importantly, methyltransferase-like proteins 2A (METTL2A) had a high amplification frequency (~ 7%) in patients with breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), and its overexpression was an independent predictor of poor overall survival. Enrichment analysis of associated genes revealed that METTL2A may activate DNA synthesis and cell proliferation pathways in BRCA cells. Through drug sensitivity analysis, Trifluridine, PD407824, and Taselisib were shown to be effective drugs for METTL2A-positive BRCA patients. Overall, our research conducts a holistic view of the expression level and prognostic signature of m3C-related genes with multiple malignancies. Importantly, METTL2A has been intensely explored as a potential oncogene in BRCA, to aid the development of potential drug agents for precision therapy in breast cancer patients.

Yang L, Chen Y. Circ_0008717 Sponges miR-326 to Elevate GATA6 Expression to Promote Breast Cancer Tumorigenicity. Biochem Genet 2022; 61:578-596. [PMID: 36001185 DOI: 10.1007/s10528-022-10270-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to paly roles in the progression and management of breast cancers (BC). This work aimed to detect the role and mechanism of circ_0008717 in BC tumorigenesis. Expression levels of genes and proteins were evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. In vitro assays were conducted using cell counting kit-8, colony formation, transwell, tube formation, and flow cytometry assays, respectively. The interaction between miR-326 and circ_0008717 or GATA6 (GATA Binding Protein six) was confirmed by bioinformatics analysis, and dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. The murine xenograft models were established to perform in vivo assay. Circ_0008717 and GATA6 were highly expressed, while miR-326 was lowly expressed in BC tissues and cells. Functionally, knockdown of circ_0008717 not only suppressed breast cancer cell proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro, but also hindered tumor growth and EMT process in vivo. Mechanistically, Circ_0008717 directly bound to miR-326, which targeted GATA6. Rescue experiments showed that miR-326 reversed the anticancer action of circ_0008717 knockdown on BC cells. Moreover, miR-326 restoration repressed BC cell growth and metastasis, which were attenuated by GATA6 overexpression. In addition, we also observed that circ_0008717 could regulate GATA6 expression by sponging miR-326. Circ_0008717 promoted breast cancer growth and metastasis through miR-326/GATA6 axis, revealing a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer treatment.

Forkhead Box S1 mediates epithelial-mesenchymal transition through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway to regulate colorectal cancer progression. J Transl Med 2022; 20:327. [PMID: 35864528 PMCID: PMC9306048 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03525-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Recent studies have shown that the fox family plays a vital role in tumorigenesis and progression. Forkhead Box S1 (FOXS1), as a newly identified subfamily of the FOX family, is overexpressed in certain types of malignant tumors and closely associated with patient's prognosis. However, the role and mechanism of the FOXS1 in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain unclear. Method FOXS1 level in CRC tissues and cell lines was analyzed by western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the relationship between FOXS1 expression and clinicopathological features in 136 patients in our unit. The expression of FOXS1 was knocked down in CRC cells using small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK8 assay, colony formation, and 5-Ethynyl-20-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation assay. Flow cytometry detected apoptosis and wound healing, and Transwell assays determined cell migration and invasion. Western blotting was used to detect the levels of proteins associated with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Then, we used short hairpin RNA (shRNA) to knock down FOXS1 to see the effect of FOXS1 on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis of CRC cells in vivo. Finally, we investigated the impact of Wnt activator LiCl on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis of CRC cells after FOXS1 knockdown. Result Compared to those in normal groups, FOXS1 overexpressed in CRC tissues and CRC cells (P < 0.05). Upregulation of FOXS1 association with poor prognosis of CRC patients. si-FOXS1 induced apoptosis and inhibited proliferation, migration, invasion, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in vitro; sh-FOXS1 inhibited the volume and weight of subcutaneous xenografts and the number of lung metastases in vivo. LiCl, an activator of Wnt signaling, partially reversed the effect of FOXS1 overexpression on CRC cells. Conclusion FOXS1 could function as an oncogene and promote CRC cell proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis through the Wnt/βcatenin signaling pathway, FOXS1 may be a potential target for CRC treatment.

A feedback loop between GATA2-AS1 and GATA2 promotes colorectal cancer cell proliferation, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemness via recruiting DDX3X. J Transl Med 2022; 20:287. [PMID: 35752837 PMCID: PMC9233859 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03483-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor with a high risk of metastasis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be implicated in cancer progression via regulating its nearby gene. Herein, we investigated the function of GATA binding protein 2 (GATA2) and lncRNA GATA2 antisense RNA 1 (GATA2-AS1) in CRC and the mechanism underlying their interaction. METHODS Colony formation assay, flow cytometry analysis and transwell assay were implemented to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis and invasion. Western blot analysis and sphere formation assay were conducted to assess epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer stemness of CRC cells. RNA pull down, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP), chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and luciferase reporter assays were implemented to investigate the regulatory mechanism between GATA2-AS1 and GATA2. RESULTS GATA2-AS1 and GATA2 were highly expressed in CRC cells. Knockdown of GATA2-AS1 and GATA2 impeded CRC cell proliferation, invasion, EMT and cancer stemness, and induced cell apoptosis. GATA2-AS1 expression was positively correlated with GATA2. GATA2-AS1 recruited DEAD-box helicase 3 X-linked (DDX3X) to stabilize GATA2 mRNA. GATA2 combined with GATA2-AS1 promoter to enhance GATA2-AS1 expression. CONCLUSION Our study confirmed that a feedback loop between GATA2-AS1 and GATA2 promotes CRC progression, which might offer novel targets for CRC treatment.

CircZDBF2 up-regulates RNF145 by ceRNA model and recruits CEBPB to accelerate oral squamous cell carcinoma progression via NFκB signaling pathway. J Transl Med 2022; 20:148. [PMID: 35365168 PMCID: PMC8973790 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03347-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), as one of the commonest malignancies showing poor prognosis, has been increasingly suggested to be modulated by circular RNAs (circRNAs). Through GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) database, a circRNA derived from ZDBF2 (circZDBF2) was uncovered to be with high expression in OSCC tissues, while how it may function in OSCC remains unclear. Methods CircZDBF2 expression was firstly verified in OSCC cells via qRT-PCR. CCK-8, along with colony formation, wound healing, transwell and western blot assays was performed to assess the malignant cell behaviors in OSCC cells. Further, RNA pull down assay, RIP assay, as well as luciferase reporter assay was performed to testify the interaction between circZDBF2 and RNAs. Results CircZDBF2 expressed at a high level in OSCC cells and it accelerated OSCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion as well as EMT (epithelial-mesenchymal transition) process. Further, circZDBF2 sponged miR-362-5p and miR-500b-5p in OSCC cells to release their target ring finger protein 145 (RNF145). RNF145 expressed at a high level in OSCC cells and circZDBF2 facilitated RNF145 transcription by recruiting the transcription factor CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta (CEBPB). Moreover, RNF145 activated NFκB (nuclear factor kappa B) signaling pathway and regulated IL-8 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8) transcription. Conclusion CircZDBF2 up-regulated RNF145 expression by sponging miR-362-5p and miR-500b-5p and recruiting CEBPB, thereby promoting OSCC progression via NFκB signaling pathway. The findings recommend circZDBF2 as a probable therapeutic target for OSCC. Graphical Abstract ![]()

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interferon regulatory factor 2 (IRF-2) acts as an anti-oncogene in gastric cancer (GC); however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. METHODS This study determined the expression of IRF-2 in GC tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and explored the predictive value of IRF-2 for the prognoses of GC patients. Cell function and xenograft tumor growth experiments in nude mice were performed to test tumor proliferation ability, both in vitro and in vivo. Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) assay was used to verify the direct target of IRF-2. RESULTS We found that IRF-2 expression was downregulated in GC tissues and was negatively correlated with the prognoses of GC patients. IRF-2 negatively affected GC cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. ChIP-Seq assay showed that IRF-2 could directly activate AMER-1 transcription and regulate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which was validated using IHC, in both tissue microarray and xenografted tumor tissues, western blot analysis, and cell function experiments. CONCLUSIONS Increased expression of IRF-2 can inhibit tumor growth and affect the prognoses of patients by directly regulating AMER-1 transcription in GC and inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Technol Cancer Res Treat 2022; 21:15330338221133222. [PMID: 36412085 PMCID: PMC9706045 DOI: 10.1177/15330338221133222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of our study was to determine prognostic risk factors and establish a novel nomogram for lung adenocarcinoma patients. Methods: This retrospective cohort study is based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and the Chinese multicenter lung cancer database. We selected 22,368 eligible LUAD patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2015 from the SEER database and screened them based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subsequently, the patients were randomly divided into the training cohort (n = 15,657) and the testing cohort (n = 6711), with a ratio of 7:3. Meanwhile, 736 eligible LUAD patients from the Chinese multicenter lung cancer database diagnosed between 2011 and 2021 were considered as the validation cohort. Results: We established a nomogram based on each independent prognostic factor analysis for 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) . For the training cohort, the area under the curves (AUCs) for predicting the 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS were 0.806, 0.856, and 0.886. For the testing cohort, AUCs for predicting the 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS were 0.804, 0.849, and 0.873. For the validation cohort, AUCs for predicting the 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS were 0.86, 0.874, and 0.861. The calibration curves were observed to be closer to the ideal 45° dotted line with regard to 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS in the training cohort, the testing cohort, and the validation cohort. The decision curve analysis (DCA) plots indicated that the established nomogram had greater net benefits in comparison with the Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) staging system for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS of lung adenocarcinoma patients. The Kaplan-Meier curves indicated that patients' survival in the low-risk group was better than that in the high-risk group (P < .001). Conclusion: The nomogram performed very well with excellent predictive ability in both the US population and the Chinese population.
