[PMID: 38348599 DOI: 10.1002/tox.24148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Scutellaria baicalensis (SB) and Polygonatum Rhizoma (PR), two traditional Chinese medicines, are both known to suppress cancer. However, the mechanism and effect of combined treatment of them for lung cancer are rarely known. Investigating the combined effect of SB and PR (hereafter referred to as SP) in potential mechanism of lung cancer is required. This study was to evaluate the inhibitory effects of SP on A549 cell growth and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS According to the theory of Chinese medicine and network pharmacology, in the in vivo experiment, a mouse model of carcinoma in situ was constructed, and lung carcinoma in situ tissues were collected for proteomics analysis, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and CK19 immunohistochemistry. In the in vitro experiment, lung cancer A549 cells at logarithmic growth stage were taken, and the inhibitory effect of SP on the proliferation of A549 cells was detected by CCK8 method. The expression of PON3 was detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot. In addition, the effect of SP on the induction of apoptosis in A549 cells and the changes of membrane potential and reactive oxygen species (ROS) content were detected by flow cytometry. The changes of PON3 content in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are observed by laser confocal microscopy, whereas the effects of SP on the expression of apoptosis-related proteins and ER stress-related proteins in A549 cells were examined by western blot. RESULT By searching the Traditional Chinese Medicines of Systems Pharmacology (TCMSP) (https://www.tcmspe.com/index.php) database and SymMap database, the respective target genes of PR and SB were mapped into protein network interactions, and using Venn diagrams to show 38 genes in common between PR and SB and lung cancer, SP was found to play a role in the treatment of lung cancer. In vivo experiments showed that in a lung carcinoma in situ model, lung tumor tissue was significantly lower in the SP group compared with the control group, and PON3 was shown to be downregulated by lung tissue proteomics analysis. The combination of SP was able to inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner (p < .0001). The expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins and ER stress proteins were significantly increased and the expression levels of PON3 and anti-apoptosis-related proteins were decreased in A549 cells. At the same time, knockdown of PON3 could inhibit tumor cell proliferation (p < .0001). The combination of different concentrations of SP significantly induced apoptosis in A549 cells (p < .05; p < .0001), increased ROS content (p < .01), and damaged mitochondrial membrane potential of A549 cells (p < .05; p < .0001), and significantly increased the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins and ER stress proteins in lung cancer A549 cells. CONCLUSION SP inhibits proliferation of lung cancer A549 cells by downregulating PON3-induced apoptosis in the mitochondrial and ER pathways.

Cis-eQTL Analysis and Functional Validation of Candidate Genes for Carcass Yield Traits in Beef Cattle. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232315055. [PMID: 36499383 PMCID: PMC9736101 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232315055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Carcass yield traits are of considerable economic importance for farm animals, which act as a major contributor to the world’s food supply. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified many genetic variants associated with carcass yield traits in beef cattle. However, their functions are not effectively illustrated. In this study, we performed an integrative analysis of gene-based GWAS with expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis to detect candidate genes for carcass yield traits and validate their effects on bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells (BSCs). The gene-based GWAS and cis-eQTL analysis revealed 1780 GWAS and 1538 cis-expression genes. Among them, we identified 153 shared genes that may play important roles in carcass yield traits. Notably, the identified cis-eQTLs of PON3 and PRIM2 were significantly (p < 0.001) enriched in previous GWAS loci for carcass traits. Furthermore, overexpression of PON3 and PRIM2 promoted the BSCs’ proliferation, increased the expression of MYOD and downregulated the expression of MYOG, which indicated that these genes may inhibit myogenic differentiation. In contrast, PON3 and PRIM2 were significantly downregulated during the differentiation of BSCs. These findings suggested that PON3 and PRIM2 may promote the proliferation of BSCs and inhibit them in the pre-differentiation stage. Our results further contribute to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of carcass yield traits in beef cattle.

Effects of Antioxidant Gene Overexpression on Stress Resistance and Malignization In Vitro and In Vivo: A Review. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122316. [PMID: 36552527 PMCID: PMC9774954 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11122316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Revised: 11/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are normal products of a number of biochemical reactions and are important signaling molecules. However, at the same time, they are toxic to cells and have to be strictly regulated by their antioxidant systems. The etiology and pathogenesis of many diseases are associated with increased ROS levels, and many external stress factors directly or indirectly cause oxidative stress in cells. Within this context, the overexpression of genes encoding the proteins in antioxidant systems seems to have become a viable approach to decrease the oxidative stress caused by pathological conditions and to increase cellular stress resistance. However, such manipulations unavoidably lead to side effects, the most dangerous of which is an increased probability of healthy tissue malignization or increased tumor aggression. The aims of the present review were to collect and systematize the results of studies devoted to the effects resulting from the overexpression of antioxidant system genes on stress resistance and carcinogenesis in vitro and in vivo. In most cases, the overexpression of these genes was shown to increase cell and organism resistances to factors that induce oxidative and genotoxic stress but to also have different effects on cancer initiation and promotion. The last fact greatly limits perspectives of such manipulations in practice. The overexpression of GPX3 and SOD3 encoding secreted proteins seems to be the "safest" among the genes that can increase cell resistance to oxidative stress. High efficiency and safety potential can also be found for SOD2 overexpression in combinations with GPX1 or CAT and for similar combinations that lead to no significant changes in H2O2 levels. Accumulation, systematization, and the integral analysis of data on antioxidant gene overexpression effects can help to develop approaches for practical uses in biomedical and agricultural areas. Additionally, a number of factors such as genetic and functional context, cell and tissue type, differences in the function of transcripts of one and the same gene, regulatory interactions, and additional functions should be taken into account.

Abstract
PI3K/AKT pathway is an important pathway in the carcinogenesis since it has central impacts in the regulation of metabolic pathways, cell proliferation and survival, gene expression and protein synthesis. This pathway has been reported to be dysregulated in several types of cancers. In the current review, we summarize the role of this signaling pathway in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) originated from different parts of body cervix, oral cavity, head and neck and skin. The data presented in the current review shows the impact of dysregulation of PI3K/AKT pathway in survival of patients with SCC. Moreover, targeted therapies against this pathway have been found to be effective in reduction of tumor burden both in animal models and clinical settings. Finally, a number of molecules that regulate PI3K/AKT pathway can be used as diagnostic markers for different types of SCCs.

[PMID: 35326240 PMCID: PMC8945423 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11030590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Paraoxonases (PONs) are a family of hydrolytic enzymes consisting of three members, PON1, PON2, and PON3, located on human chromosome 7. Identifying the physiological substrates of these enzymes is necessary for the elucidation of their biological roles and to establish their applications in the biomedical field. PON substrates are classified as organophosphates, aryl esters, and lactones based on their structure. While the established native physiological activity of PONs is its lactonase activity, the enzymes’ exact physiological substrates continue to be elucidated. All three PONs have antioxidant potential and play an important anti-atherosclerotic role in several diseases including cardiovascular diseases. PON3 is the last member of the family to be discovered and is also the least studied of the three genes. Unlike the other isoforms that have been reviewed extensively, there is a paucity of knowledge regarding PON3. Thus, the current review focuses on PON3 and summarizes the PON substrates, specific activities, kinetic parameters, and their association with cardiovascular as well as other diseases such as HIV and cancer.

Onco Targets Ther 2019; 12:4427-4435.

Abstract
Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common cancers, with high metastasis and mortality. Licochalcone A (LCA) is a chalconoid from the root of Glycyrrhiza inflata, which has anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenesis effects in many cancers. However, the mechanism that underlies LCA regulating cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in OSCC remains poorly understood. Methods: LY294002 or insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) were used to block or stimulate the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) pathway in OSCC cells. Cell proliferation was investigated by MTT assay and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) protein level using Western blot. The expression of metastasis-related protein was detected via Western blot. Cell migration and invasion abilities were evaluated by trans-well assay. A murine xenograft model of OSCC was established to investigate the anti-tumor effect of LCA in vivo. Results: Treatment of LCA inhibited cell proliferation in SCC4 and CAL-27 cells. Moreover, PI3K/AKT signaling was blocked by LY294002, and activated by IGF-1. LCA could suppress proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells, which was similar to the treatment of LY294002. In addition, LCA decreased IGF-1-induced OSCC progression. In a murine xenograft model, LCA treatment protected against tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Conclusions: LCA might inhibit cell proliferation, migration, and invasion through regulating the PI3K/AKT pathway in OSCC, developing a potential chemotherapeutic agent for OSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pituitary adenoma (PA) is a prevalent intracranial tumor. Metabolites differ between pituitary tumor and healthy tissues or among different tumor subtypes. However, the transcriptional changes in metabolic enzymes, which are usually seemed as targets for metabolic therapy, remain unidentified. METHODS Using microarray data for 160 samples from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, across the four most common tumor subtypes, we present the integrated identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between tumors and controls. RESULTS Subtype-specific DEGs revealed 1081 prolactin tumor-specific DEGs, 437 nonfunctioning tumor-specific DEGs, and 217 common DEGs among the four subtypes. Functional enrichment showed that a lot of biological functions related to metabolism had changed. Twenty-one prolactin and twenty-three nonfunctioning tumor-specific metabolic-related DEGs are mainly involved in fatty acid and nucleotide metabolism, redox reaction, and gluconeogenesis. Eighteen metabolic-related DEGs enriched in the metabolism of xenobiotics by the cytochrome P450 pathway, sulfur metabolism, retinoid metabolism, and glucose homeostasis were abnormal in all subtypes of PA. CONCLUSION Based on a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the available PA-related transcriptomics data, we identified specific DEGs related to metabolism, and some of them might be new attractive therapeutic targets. Especially, PDK4 and PCK1 might be new attractive biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Background Drug resistance prevents the effective treatment of cancers. DNA methylation has been found to participate in the development of cancer drug resistance. Methods We performed the wound-healing and invasion assays to test the effect of the paraoxonase gene PON3 on esophageal cancer (EC) cells. In addition, in vivo EC-derived tumor xenografts in nude mice were generated to test the effect of PON3 on the chemoresistance of EC cells. Results We found that PON3 is hypermethylated in drug-resistant EC cell line K150, which in-return down-regulates its expression. The following experiments by the forced changes of PON3 level in vitro and in vivo demonstrated that the PON3 expression negatively correlates with drug resistance in EC cells. Further wound-healing and invasion assays showed that PON3 suppresses the migration and invasion of EC cells. Conclusion Our data established that PON3 is associated with the EC drug resistance, which may serve as a biomarker for the potential therapeutic treatment of EC.

Abstract
The paraoxonase (PON) gene family includes three proteins, PON1, PON2 and PON3. PON1 and PON3 are both associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles and exert anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. PON2 and PON3 are intracellular enzymes which modulate mitochondrial superoxide anion production and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced apoptosis. The pleiotropic roles exerted by PONs have been mainly investigated in cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. In recent years, overexpression of PON2 and PON3 has been observed in cancer cells and it has been proposed that both enzymes could be involved in tumor survival and stress resistance. Moreover, a lower activity of serum PON1 has been reported in cancer patients. This review summarizes literature data on the role of PONs in human cancers and their potential role as a target for antitumor drugs.
