Selective but not pan-CDK inhibition abrogates 5-FU-driven tissue factor upregulation in colon cancer. Sci Rep 2024; 14:10582. [PMID: 38719932 PMCID: PMC11078971 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61076-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Thromboembolic events are complications in cancer patients and hypercoagulability has been linked to the tissue factor (TF) pathway, making this an attractive target. Here, we investigated the effects of chemotherapeutics and CDK inhibitors (CDKI) abemaciclib/palbociclib (CDK4/6), THZ-1 (CDK7/12/13), and dinaciclib (CDK1/2/5/9) alone and in combination regimens on TF abundance and coagulation. The human colorectal cancer (CRC) cell line HROC173 was treated with 5-FU or gemcitabine to stimulate TF expression. TF+ cells were sorted, recultured, and re-analyzed. The effect of treatment alone or in combination was assessed by functional assays. Low-dose chemotherapy induced a hypercoagulable state and significantly upregulated TF, even after reculture without treatment. Cells exhibited characteristics of epithelial-mesenchymal transition, including high expression of vimentin and mucin. Dinaciclib and THZ-1 also upregulated TF, while abemaciclib and palbociclib downregulated it. Similar results were observed in coagulation assays. The same anticoagulant activity of abemaciclib was seen after incubation with peripheral immune cells from healthy donors and CRC patients. Abemaciclib reversed 5-FU-induced TF upregulation and prolonged clotting times in second-line treatment. Effects were independent of cytotoxicity, senescence, and p27kip1 induction. TF-antibody blocking experiments confirmed the importance of TF in plasma coagulation, with Factor XII playing a minor role. Short-term abemaciclib counteracts 5-FU-induced hypercoagulation and eventually even prevents thromboembolic events.

Abstract
Bacterial infection influences genomic stability and integrity by causing DNA damage, which increases the possibility of tumor initiation and development. We aimed to investigate whether Fusobacterium nucleatum, one of the periodontal pathogens, promoted oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) by causing DNA double-strand break (DSB). Tca8113 tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells were infected with F. nucleatum. The expression of γH2AX was detected by western blots and immunofluorescence. The proliferation and cell cycle alterations were tested by CCK8 and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression levels of Ku70, p53, and p27 were evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blots. A plasmid was used for the overexpression of Ku70 to verify the possible relationship between Ku70 and p53. We confirmed the presence of DSBs in the response to F. nucleatum by detecting the expression of γH2AX. The cell proliferation ability was increased with an accelerated cell cycle while the expression of p27 was decreased. Meanwhile, the expression of Ku70 and wild p53 was downregulated. When Ku70 was overexpressed, the expression of wild p53 in response to F. nucleatum infection was upregulated and cell proliferation was accordingly inhibited. We concluded that F. nucleatum infection promoted the proliferation ability of Tca8113 by causing DNA damage via the Ku70/p53 pathway.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, the major cause of heart attack and stroke, is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of atherosclerotic plaque. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein through increased oxidative stress has been identified as one of the primary factors responsible for atherogenesis. Cell proliferation and death are key processes in the progression of atherosclerosis. The oxidative environment in areas of lipid accumulation is mainly created by the production of reactive oxygen species, which are assumed to mediate vascular tissue injury. Oxidative DNA damage and levels of DNA repair are reduced during dietary lipid lowering. The tumor suppressor molecules play a pivotal role in regulating cell proliferation, DNA repair and cell death, which are important processes in regulating the composition of atherosclerotic plaque. Accordingly, in this review, we discuss the fundamental role of tumor suppressor molecules in regulating atherogenesis. In particular, we discuss how tumor suppressor molecules are activated in the complex environment of atherosclerotic plaque, and regulate growth arrest, cell senescence and the apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells, which may protect against the progression of atherosclerosis. In addition, we discuss promising alternatives to the use of medications (such as statin) against atherosclerosis, namely diet, with the use of plant-derived supplements to modulate the expression and/or activity of tumor suppressor molecules. We also summarize the progress of research made on herbs with a focus on the modulatory roles of tumor suppressors, and on the molecular mechanisms underlying the prevention if atherosclerosis, supporting designs for further research in this field.
