Reduction of LPAR1 Expression in Neuroblastoma Promotes Tumor Cell Migration. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14143346. [PMID: 35884407 PMCID: PMC9322936 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14143346] [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: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children. Tumor metastasis in high-risk NB patients is an essential problem that impairs the survival of patients. In this study, we aimed to use a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis to identify differentially expressed genes between NB and control cells, and to explore novel prognostic markers or treatment targets in tumors. In this way, FN1, PIK3R5, LPAR6 and LPAR1 were screened out via KEGG, GO and PPI network analysis, and we verified the expression and function of LPAR1 experimentally. Our research verified the decreased expression of LPAR1 in NB cells, and the tumor migration inhibitory effects of LPA on NB cells via LPAR1. Moreover, knockdown of LPAR1 promoted NB cell migration and abolished the migration-inhibitory effects mediated by LPA-LPAR1. The tumor-suppressing effects of the LPA-LPAR1 axis suggest that LPAR1 might be a potential target for future treatment of NB.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (Lpar1), which is found in almost all human tissues but is most abundant in the brain, can couple to G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and participate in regulating cell proliferation, migration, survival, and apoptosis. Endothelial differentiation gene-2 receptor (Edg2), the protein encoded by the Lpar1 gene, is present on various cell types in the central nervous system (CNS), such as neural stem cells (NSCs), oligodendrocytes, neurons, astrocytes, and microglia. Lpar1 deletion causes neurodevelopmental disorders and CNS diseases, such as brain cancer, neuropsychiatric disorders, demyelination diseases, and neuropathic pain. Here, we summarize the possible roles and mechanisms of Lpar1/Edg2 in CNS disorders and diseases and propose that Lpar1/Edg2 might be a potential therapeutic target for CNS disorders and diseases.

Synthesis of newly functionalized 1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives and their effects on wound healing in alloxan-induced diabetic mice. Chem Biol Interact 2018; 291:55-64.

Abstract
Naphthoquinone derivatives have various pharmacological properties. Here, we describe the synthesis of new 1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives inspired by lawsone and β-lapachone and their effects on both migration of fibroblasts in vitro and dermal wound healing in diabetic mice. NMR and FTIR spectroscopy aided characterization of chemical composition and demonstrated the molecular variations after the synthesis of four different derivatives, namely 2-bromo-1,4-naphthoquinone (termed derivative S3), 2-N-phenylamino-1,4-naphthoquinone (derivative S5), 2-N-isonicotinoyl-hydrazide-1,4-naphthoquinone (derivative S6), and 1-N-isonicotinoyl-hydrazone-[2-hydroxy-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)]-1,4-naphthoquinone (derivative S7). Our results indicate that derivatives S3, S5, S6 and S7 were non-toxic to the 3T3 fibroblast cell line. In scratch assays, derivatives S3 and S6, but not S5 or S7, stimulated the migration of fibroblasts. Compared with untreated diabetic mice, S3, S6 and S7 treatments accelerated wound closure. However, derivative S3 was optimal for the stimulation of epithelization, thereby increasing the number of keratinocyte layers and blood vessels, and reducing diffuse cellular infiltration, compared to derivatives S6 and S7. Our results suggest that novel 1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives promote fibroblast migration and accelerate wound closure under diabetic conditions.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) signaling via G protein-coupled LPA receptors (LPA1-LPA6) mediates a variety of biological functions, including cell migration. Recently, we have reported that LPA1 inhibited the cell motile activities of mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells. In the present study, to evaluate a role of LPA5 in cellular responses, Lpar5 knockdown (3T3-L5) cells were generated from 3T3 cells. In cell proliferation assays, LPA markedly stimulated the cell proliferation activities of 3T3-L5 cells, compared with control cells. In cell motility assays with Cell Culture Inserts, the cell motile activities of 3T3-L5 cells were significantly higher than those of control cells. The activity levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) were measured by gelatin zymography. 3T3-L5 cells stimulated the activation of Mmp-2, correlating with the expression levels of Mmp-2 gene. Moreover, to assess the co-effects of LPA1 and LPA5 on cell motile activities, Lpar5 knockdown (3T3a1-L5) cells were also established from Lpar1 over-expressing (3T3a1) cells. 3T3a1-L5 cells increased the cell motile activities of 3T3a1 cells, while the cell motile activities of 3T3a1 cells were significantly lower than those of control cells. These results suggest that LPA5 may act as a negative regulator of cellular responses in mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells, similar to the case for LPA1.
