Abstract
The action of miRNA-22 related with HCC metastasis was analyzed in our study and the mechanism of miRNA-22 related with HCC metastasis was discussed. The HCC hep2 cell was transfected with miRNA-22 mimics and miRNA-22 NC instantaneously followed by analysis of cell migration by Transwell
assay, cell viability by MTT and clone formation and cell apoptosis by flow cytometry. The action of miRNA-22 mimics and miRNA-22 on the expression of P53 mRNA in HCC Hep2 cell was detected by RT-PCR. The cell activity in miRNA-22 mimics group was significantly elevated compared with miRNA-22
NC group (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, the apoptotic rate, migrated and invaded capacity of HCC cell was significantly elevated (P < 0.01). The expression level of P53 mRNA was reduced (P < 0.01). In conclusion, overexpression of miRNA-22 could restrain the apoptosis
of HCC hep2 cell and down-regulated the expression of P53 so as to prompt cell invasion capacity.

Global Reduction of H3K4me3 Improves Chemotherapeutic Efficacy for Pediatric Ependymomas. Neoplasia 2019; 21:505-515. [PMID: 31005631 PMCID: PMC6477190 DOI: 10.1016/j.neo.2019.03.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2019] [Revised: 03/24/2019] [Accepted: 03/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ependymomas (EPNs) are the third most common brain tumor in children. These tumors are resistant to available chemotherapeutic treatments, therefore new effective targeted therapeutics must be identified. Increasing evidence shows epigenetic alterations including histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs), are associated with malignancy, chemotherapeutic resistance and prognosis for pediatric EPNs. In this study we examined histone PTMs in EPNs and identified potential targets to improve chemotherapeutic efficacy. METHODS Global histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) levels were detected in pediatric EPN tumor samples with immunohistochemistry and immunoblots. Candidate genes conferring therapeutic resistance were profiled in pediatric EPN tumor samples with micro-array. Promoter H3K4me3 was examined for two candidate genes, CCND1 and ERBB2, with chromatin-immunoprecipitation coupled with real-time PCR (ChIP-PCR). These methods and MTS assay were used to verify a relationship between H3K4me3 levels and CCND1 and ERBB2, and to investigate cell viability in response to chemotherapeutic drugs in primary cultured pediatric EPN cells. RESULTS H3K4me3 levels positively correlate with WHO grade malignancy in pediatric EPNs and are associated with progression free survival in patients with posterior fossa group A EPNs (PF-EPN-A). Reduction of H3K4me3 by silencing its methyltransferase SETD1A, in primary cultured EPN cells increased cell response to chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Our results support the development of a novel treatment that targets H3K4me3 to increase chemotherapeutic efficacy in pediatric PF-EPN-A tumors.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a clonal malignancy of hematopoietic stem cell that is characterized by the occurrence of t(9;22)(q34;q11.2) translocation, named Philadelphia chromosome. Ruxolitinib is a powerful Janus tyrosine kinase 1 and 2 inhibitor that is used for myelofibrosis treatment. DNA-histone connection mediates a wide range of genes that code methylation, demethylation, acetylation, deacetylation, ubiquitination, and phosphorylation enzymes. Epigenetic modifications regulate chromatin compactness, which plays pivotal roles in critical biological processes including the transcriptional activity and cell proliferation as well as various pathological mechanisms, including CML. This study is aimed to determine the alterations of the expression levels of epigenetic modification-related genes after ruxolitinib treatment. Total RNA was isolated from K-562 cells treated with the IC50 value of ruxolitinib and untreated K-562 control cells. A reverse transcription procedure was performed for complementary DNA synthesis, and gene expressions were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction compared with the untreated cells. Ruxolitinib treatment caused a significant alteration in the expression levels of epigenetic regulation-related genes in K-562 cells. Our novel results suggested that ruxolitinib has inhibitor effects on epigenetic modification-regulator genes.
