Abstract
According to recent research, metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has emerged as an important underlying etiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular mechanism of MAFLD-HCC is still unclear. Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) is the key molecule to mediate the signal of inflammatory NF-κB pathway. This study aims to investigate the potential dysregulation of TRAF2 and its biological function in MAFLD-HCC. Huh7 TRAF2-/- demonstrated increased tumor formation ability compared to huh7 TRAF2+/+ when stimulated with transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). The decisive role of TGF-β in the development of MAFLD-HCC was confirmed through the specific depletion of TGF-β receptor II gene in the hepatocytes (Tgfbr2ΔHep) of mice. In TRAF2-/- cells treated with TGF-β, both the glycolysis rate and lipid synthesis were enhanced. We proved the signal of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) could be activated in the presence of TGF-β, and was enhanced in TRAF2-/- cells. The coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) experiments revealed that TRAF2 fortified the Smurf2-mediated ubiquitination degradation of AXIN1. Hence, TRAF2 depletion resulted in increased Smad7 degradation induced by AXIN1, thus promoting the TGF-β signal. We also discovered that PLX-4720 could bind with AXIN1 and restrained the tumor proliferation of TRAF2-/- in mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD). Our findings indicate that TRAF2 plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of MAFLD-HCC. The reduction of TRAF2 expression leads to the enhancement of the TGF-β-mTORC1 pathway by facilitating AXIN1-mediated Smad7 degradation.

Biol Direct 2024; 19:18. [PMID: 38419066 PMCID: PMC10903047 DOI: 10.1186/s13062-024-00460-7] [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: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
STAM Binding Protein Like 1 (STAMBPL1), functions as a deubiquitinase (DUB) and plays a significant role in various types of cancers. However, its effect as a DUB participating in the HCC tumorigenesis and progression still unknown. In the study, the upregulation and strong prognosis value of STAMBPL1 were identified in HCC patients. Functionally, STAMBPL1 significantly promoted HCC cells proliferation and metastasis, and it interacts with TRAF2 and stabilize it via the deubiquitination at the K63 residue. The TRAF2 upregulation stabilized by STAMBPL1 overexpression transfers of P65 protein into the nucleus and activates the WNT/PI3K/ NF-kb signaling pathway. The 251-436 sites of STAMBPL1 particularly interact with the 294-496 sites of TRAF2, thereby exerting the function of DUB and removing the ubiquitin molecules attached to TRAF2. Our research unveiled a new function of STAMBPL1 in mediating TRAF2 deubiquitination and stabilization, thereby activating the WNT/PI3K/NF-kb signaling pathway, suggesting its potential as a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for HCC.

Abstract
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignant disease with a poor prognosis. We previously found that p62 presented a marked nuclear-cytoplasmic translocation in ESCC cells as compared that in normal esophageal epithelial cells, but its effects on ESCC cells remain unclear. This study aims to clarify the impacts of different cellular localization of p62 on the function of ESCC cells and the underlying molecular mechanisms. We here demonstrated that cytoplasmic p62 enhances the migration and invasion abilities of esophageal cancer cells, whereas nuclear p62 has no effect. We further explored the interaction protein of p62 by using GST pull-down experiment and identified EPLIN as a potential protein interacting with p62. In addition, reducing EPLIN expression significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of ESCC cells, which were rescued when EPLIN expression was restored after the p62 knockdown. At a molecular level, p62 in cytoplasm positively regulated the expression of EPLIN via enhancing its protein stability. Data from the TCGA and GEO database displayed a significant up-regulation of EPLIN mRNA expression in ESCC tissues compared with corresponding paired esophageal epithelial samples. Our findings present evidence that the nuclear-cytoplasmic translocation of p62 protein contributes to an aggressive malignancy phenotype, providing candidate molecular biomarkers and potential molecular targets for the diagnosis and treatment of ESCC.

Abstract
The suppression of tumor proliferation via cellular senescence has emerged as a promising approach for anti-tumor therapy. Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), an adaptor protein involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, has been implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) proliferation. However, little is currently known about whether TRAF2 promotes HCC development by inhibiting cellular senescence. Replicative senescence model and IR-induced mouse model demonstrated that TRAF2 expression was decrease in senescence cells or liver tissues. Depletion of TRAF2 could inhibit proliferation and arrest the cell cycle via activating p53/p21WAF1 and p16INK4a/pRb signaling pathways in HCC cells and eventually lead to cellular senescence. Mechanistically, TRAF2 deficiency increased the expression of mitochondrial protein reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (ROMO1) and subsequently activated the NAD+/SIRT3/SOD2 pathway to promote the production of ROS and cause mitochondrial dysfunction, which eventually contributed to DNA damage response (DDR). Our findings demonstrate that TRAF2 deficiency inhibits the proliferation of HCC by promoting senescence. Therefore, targeting TRAF2 through various approaches holds therapeutic potential for treating HCC.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, occurring predominantly in patients with underlying chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. Here, we describe a case of a 62-year-old man that was admitted to our hospital and diagnosed with HCC where the cancer has already metastasized to the retroperitoneum and peritoneum. In order to better characterize the HCC, both the cancerous liver tissue and the adjacent normal liver tissue of the patient were collected and subjected to a genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic analysis. Our patient carries a highly mutated HCC, which is characterized by both somatic mutation in the following genes ALK, CDK6, TP53, PGR. In addition, we observe several molecular alterations that are associated with potential therapy resistance, for example the expression of the organic-anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) family members B1 and B3, that mediate the transport of the anticancer drugs, has been found decreased. Overall, our molecular profiling potentially classify the patient with poor prognosis and possibly displaying resistance to pharmacological therapy.

Abstract
Apoptosis is a programmed cell death process critical to cell development and tissue homeostasis in multicellular organisms. Defective apoptosis is a crucial step in the malignant transformation of cells, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), where the apoptosis rate is higher than in normal liver tissues. Ubiquitination, a post-translational modification process, plays a precise role in regulating the formation and function of different death-signaling complexes, including those involved in apoptosis. Aberrant expression of E3 ubiquitin ligases (E3s) in liver cancer (LC), such as cellular inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (cIAPs), X chromosome-linked IAP (XIAP), and linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), can contribute to HCC development by promoting cell survival and inhibiting apoptosis. Therefore, the review introduces the main apoptosis pathways and the regulation of proteins in these pathways by E3s and deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs). It summarizes the abnormal expression of these regulators in HCC and their effects on cancer inhibition or promotion. Understanding the role of ubiquitination in apoptosis and LC can provide insights into potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
