[PMID: 27705911 PMCID: PMC5342750 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.12251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2016] [Accepted: 09/13/2016] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
The overall survival of lung cancer patients remains dismal despite the availability of targeted therapies. Oncofetal protein SALL4 is a novel cancer target. We herein report that SALL4 was aberrantly expressed in a subset of lung cancer patients with poor survival. SALL4 silencing by RNA interference or SALL4 peptide inhibitor treatment led to impaired lung cancer cell growth. Expression profiling of SALL4-knockdown cells demonstrated that both the EGFR and IGF1R signaling pathways were affected. Connectivity Map analysis revealed the HDAC inhibitor entinostat as a potential drug in treating SALL4-expressing cancers, and this was confirmed in 17 lung cancer cell lines. In summary, we report for the first time that entinostat can target SALL4-positive lung cancer. This lays the foundation for future clinical studies evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of entinostat in SALL4-positive lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Follicular dendritic cell secreted protein (FDC-SP) is a secreted peptide predominantly expressed in mucosal tissues. We previously reported that FDC-SP transgenic mice have altered B-cell responses to systemic immunization; however, the role of FDC-SP in mucosal immunity is unknown. Here, we report that FDC-SP functions in regulating immunoglobulin A production. FDC-SP transgenic mice show decreased IgA levels in serum, saliva, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Reciprocally, FDC-SP-deficient mice show significantly increased IgA levels in serum and intestinal lavage, associated with accumulation of IgA+ cells in blood, bone marrow, Peyer's patches, and lymph nodes. FDC-SP-deficient mice generated higher titers of antigen-specific IgA but normal IgG1 responses upon immunization. Purified FDC-SP transgenic B cells generated decreased IgA responses to transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)+interleukin 5 (IL5) stimulation. Consistent with a direct effect of FDC-SP on B cells, recombinant FDC-SP suppressed B-cell IgA production in vitro. Six- to 14-month-old FDC-SP-deficient mice show IgA deposition in kidney glomeruli, which was associated with proteinuria and pathology consistent with mild IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Our results demonstrate a novel biological activity of FDC-SP in controlling B-cell IgA production and identify FDC-SP-deficient mice as a novel mouse model of IgAN.
