Abstract
Objective Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) acts at the crossroad between immunity and cancer, being an attractive therapeutic target in these areas. IGF1R is broadly expressed by antigen-presenting cells (APC). Using mice immunised with the methylated albumin from bovine serum (BSA-immunised mice) and human CD14+ APCs, we investigated the role that IGF1R plays during adaptive immune responses. Methods The mBSA-immunised mice were treated with synthetic inhibitor NT157 or short hairpin RNA to inhibit IGF1R signalling, and spleens were analysed by immunohistology and flow cytometry. The levels of autoantibody and cytokine production were measured by microarray or conventional ELISA. The transcriptional profile of CD14+ cells from blood of 55 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was analysed with RNA-sequencing. Results Inhibition of IGF1R resulted in perifollicular infiltration of functionally compromised S256-phosphorylated FoxO1+ APCs, and an increased frequency of IgM+CD21+ B cells, which enlarged the marginal zone (MZ). Enlargement of MHCII+CD11b+ APCs ensured favourable conditions for their communication with IgM+ B cells in the MZ. The reduced expression of ICOSL and CXCR5 by APCs after IGF1R inhibition led to impaired T cell control, which resulted in autoreactivity of extra-follicular B cells and autoantibody production. In the clinical setting, the low expression of IGF1R on CD14+ APCs was associated with an involuted FOXO pathway, non-inflammatory cell metabolism and a high IL10 production characteristic for tolerogenic macrophages. Furthermore, autoantibody positivity was associated with low IGF1R signalling in CD14+ APCs. Conclusions In experimental model and in patient material, this study demonstrates that IGF1R plays an important role in preventing autoimmunity. The study raises awareness of that immune tolerance may be broken during therapeutic IGF1R targeting.

OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3504279. [PMID: 36062186 PMCID: PMC9433209 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3504279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Defective brain hormonal signaling and autophagy have been associated with neurodegeneration after brain insults, characterized by neuronal loss and cognitive dysfunction. However, few studies have linked them in the context of brain injury. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is an important hormone that contributes to growth, cell proliferation, and autophagy and is also expressed in the brain. Here, we assessed the clinical data from TBI patients and performed both in vitro and in vivo experiments with proteomic and gene-chip analysis to assess the functions of IGF-1 in mitophagy following TBI. We show that reduced plasma IGF-1 is correlated with cognition in TBI patients. Overexpression of astrocytic IGF-1 improves cognitive dysfunction and mitophagy in TBI mice. Mechanically, proteomics data show that the IGF-1-related NF-κB pathway transcriptionally regulates decapping mRNA2 (Dcp2) and miR-let-7, together with IGF-1R to orchestrate mitophagy in TBI. Finally, we demonstrate that brain injury induces impaired mitophagy at the chronic stage and that IGF-1 treatment could facilitate the mitophagy markers via exosomal miR-let-7e. By showing that IGF-1 is an important mediator of the beneficial effect of the neural-endocrine network in TBI models, our findings place IGF-1/IGF-1R as a potential target capable of noncoding RNAs and opposing mitophagy failure and cognitive impairment in TBI.

Noncoding RNA actions through IGFs and IGF binding proteins in cancer. Oncogene 2022; 41:3385-3393.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their regulatory proteins—IGF receptors and binding proteins—are strongly implicated in cancer progression and modulate cell survival and proliferation, migration, angiogenesis and metastasis. By regulating the bioavailability of the type-1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) ligands, IGF-1 and IGF-2, the IGF binding proteins (IGFBP-1 to -6) play essential roles in cancer progression. IGFBPs also influence cell communications through pathways that are independent of IGF1R activation. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), which encompass a variety of RNA types including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long-noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), have roles in multiple oncogenic pathways, but their many points of intersection with IGF axis functions remain to be fully explored. This review examines the functional interactions of miRNAs and lncRNAs with IGFs and their binding proteins in cancer, and reveals how the IGF axis may mediate ncRNA actions that promote or suppress cancer. A better understanding of the links between ncRNA and IGF pathways may suggest new avenues for prognosis and therapeutic intervention in cancer. Further, by exploring examples of intersecting ncRNA-IGF pathways in non-cancer conditions, it is proposed that new opportunities for future discovery in cancer control may be generated.

Biol Chem 2021; 401:477-485. [PMID: 31702994 DOI: 10.1515/hsz-2018-0421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2018] [Accepted: 10/10/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that are implicated in various biological processes. Hsa-miR-6165 (miR-6165), located in the p75NTR gene, is known to induce apoptosis in human cell lines, but its mechanism of action is not fully understood yet. Here, we predicted the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) gene as a bona fide target for miR-6165. The overexpression of miR-6165 in SW480 cells resulted in significant downregulation of IGF-1R expression as detected by real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Also, it resulted in reduced transcript levels of AKT2, AKT3, PI3KR3, PI3KR5, CCND1, c-MYC and P21 genes detected by RT-qPCR analysis. In addition, a direct interaction between miR-6165 and a 3'UTR sequence of the IGF-1R gene was verified through a dual luciferase assay. Furthermore, miR-6165 and IGF-1R showed opposite patterns of expression during the neural differentiation process of NT2 cells. Annexin V analysis and MTT assay showed that miR-6165 overexpression was followed by increased apoptosis and reduced the viability rate of SW480 cells. Moreover, a lower expression level of miR-6165 was detected in high-grade colorectal tumors compared with low-grade tumors. Taken together, the results of our study suggest a tumor suppressive role of miR-6165 in colorectal cancer, which seems to take place by regulating IGF-1R gene expression.

Abstract
Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTK) are an important family involved in numerous signaling pathways essential for proliferation, cell survival, transcription or cell-cycle regulation. Their role and involvement in cancer cell survival have been widely described in the literature, and are generally associated with overexpression and/or excessive activity in the cancer pathology. Because of these characteristics, RTKs are relevant targets in the fight against cancer. In the last decade, increasingly numerous works describe the role of RTK signaling in the modulation of DNA repair, thus providing evidence of the relationship between RTKs and the protein actors in the repair pathways. In this review, we propose a summary of RTKs described as potential modulators of double-stranded DNA repair pathways in order to put forward new lines of research aimed at the implementation of new therapeutic strategies targeting both DNA repair pathways and RTK-mediated signaling pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor variant rs2016347 on the risk for breast and nonbreast cancers and cardiovascular disease in women with a history of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study included all parous women in the UK Biobank with prior rs2016347 genotyping (N=204,155), with enrollment taking place from March 2006 to July 2010. History of HDP was self-reported, and outcomes included breast and all nonbreast cancers, hospital diagnoses of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, and direct blood pressure measurements. RESULTS Women with previous HDP had a higher risk for future hypertension and cardiovascular diagnoses, increased blood pressures, and lower risk for breast cancer compared with women without HDP, consistent with prior studies. Hazard ratios for all nonbreast cancers were unchanged. However, when taking genotype into account, HDP-positive women carrying at least 1 thymine (T) allele of rs2016347 had a lower risk for nonbreast cancer (hazard ratio, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.37 to 0.92; P=.02) and lower systolic blood pressure (-2.08±0.98 mm Hg; P=.03) compared with women with the guanine/guanine (GG) genotype with positive evidence of interaction (HDP:T allele) for both outcomes; P=.04 and P=.03, respectively. CONCLUSION Women who experience HDP and carry a T allele of rs2016347 have 41% lower risk for developing nonbreast cancer and a lower systolic blood pressure of 2.08 mm Hg when compared with those with the GG genotype, suggesting a possible role of the insulin-like growth factor 1 axis for both cardiovascular and cancer risk in women with HDP.

Abstract
Expression level of miR-98 in diabetic colon cancer (CRC) tissues and the regulation mechanism of colon cancer cell proliferation and invasion ability were studied. Forty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with colon cancer, 40 colon cancer patients, and 40 patients with diabetic colonoscopy were enrolled between January 2017 and January 2018. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression level of miR-98. After SW480 cells were transfected with miR-98 mimics or control simulants, the proliferation of cancer cells was detected by MTT assay, and the invasion ability of cancer cells was detected by Transwell cell invasion assay. The dual luciferase assay was used to detect the binding relationship between miR-98 and IGF1R. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of IGF1R protein in tumor tissues of patients with diabetes mellitus and colon cancer. Compared with diabetic patients, the expression level of miR-98 was decreased in colon cancer patients. Compared with tumor tissues of colon cancer patients, the expression level of miR-98 was significantly decreased in diabetic colon cancer tissues. Compared with the commonly cultured colon cancer SW480 cells, the expression level of miR-98 was significantly decreased in SW480 cells cultured under high glucose conditions. Increased expression of miR-98 inhibits colon cancer cell proliferation and invasion. miR-98 can target and bind to IGF1R and inhibit its expression level. IGF1R is upregulated in diabetic colon cancer tissue. miR-98 inhibits proliferation and invasion of diabetic colon cancer by targeting IGF1R. The expression level of miR-98 in diabetic colon cancer tissues is lower than that in colon cancer tissues. miR-98 can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of colon cancer cells by targeting the target gene IGF1R. miR-98 may be a potential biological target for the treatment of patients with diabetes and colon cancer.

Abstract
Non-communicable diseases contribute to 71% of the deaths worldwide, of which cancers rank second after cardiovascular diseases. Among all the cancers, head and neck cancers (HNC) are consequential in augmenting the global cancer incidence as well as mortality. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are emphatic for the matter that they serve as biomarkers aiding the analysis of tumor progression and metastasis as well as diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic progression in the patients. The extensive researches on HNC have made significant furtherance in numerous targeted therapies, but for the escalating therapeutic resistance. This review explicates RTKs in HNC, their signaling pathways involved in tumorigenesis, metastasis and stemness induction, the association of non-coding RNAs with RTKs, an overview of RTK based therapy and associated resistance in HNC, as well as a sneak peek into the HPV positive HNC and its therapy. The review extrapolates the cardinal role of RTKs and RTK based therapy as superior to other existing therapeutic interventions for HNC.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) play important roles in mammalian growth, development, aging, and diseases. Aberrant IGFs signaling may lead to malignant transformation and tumor progression, thus providing the rationale for targeting IGF axis in cancer. However, clinical trials of the type I IGF receptor (IGF-IR)-targeted agents have been largely disappointing. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that the IGF axis not only promotes tumorigenesis, but also confers resistance to standard treatments. Furthermore, there are diverse pathways leading to the resistance to IGF-IR-targeted therapy. Recent studies characterizing the complex IGFs signaling in cancer have raised hope to refine the strategies for targeting the IGF axis. This review highlights the biological activities of IGF-IR signaling in cancer and the contribution of IGF-IR to cytotoxic, endocrine, and molecular targeted therapies resistance. Moreover, we update the diverse mechanisms underlying resistance to IGF-IR-targeted agents and discuss the strategies for future development of the IGF axis-targeted agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to investigate the expressions of miR-21 and miR-210 in the breast cancer tissue and their correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 68 patients with breast cancer treated surgically in Wuhan General Hospital of Guangzhou Military in 2014-2015. The breast cancer tissue and the adjacent normal tissue were collected from the patients. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of miR-21 and miR-210 in the breast cancer and adjacent normal tissues. RESULTS According to qRT-PCR, the expression levels of miR-210 and miR-21 in the breast cancer tissue were significantly higher than those in the adjacent normal tissue (P<0.05), which were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, clinical staging and differentiation of patients (P<0.05). miR-21 and miR-210 were significantly positive correlated in both breast cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues (r=0.7014, 0.7502, P<0.001). The survival rate in the miR-210 high expression group was significantly lower than that in the miR-210 low expression group (P<0.05), whereas there was no significant difference between the miR-21 high and low expression groups. CONCLUSION miR-21 and miR-210 are highly expressed in the breast cancer tissue and significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, clinical staging and differentiation. miR-210, the up-regulated expression of which is related to the poor prognosis of patients with breast cancer, may be a potential prognostic indicator for breast cancer, which can be used to judge the prognosis.
