Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2023; 1869:166823. [PMID: 37632981 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2023.166823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2022] [Revised: 07/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS Liver cancer is the sixth most common type of cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Scribble has been shown to function as a neoplastic tumor suppressor gene in most tumors. Our previous studies reported that down-regulation or mislocalization of Scribble was sufficient to initiate mammary tumorigenesis and NSCLC. Recently, it was reported that Scribble was highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aim to study how it was up-regulated and the contradictory role of Scribble in HCC. METHODS AND RESULTS Using a mouse model of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis system, we showed that Scribble was over-expressed and which may protect the mice against hepatic fibrosis. Unexpectedly, we found out the potential for Scribble to act as a tumor driver at the advanced stage of N-nitrosodiethylamine (DEN) plus CCl4 induced HCC mice model in vivo. In addition, we observed even higher expression of Scribble in HCC tumors harboring elevated levels of wild-type p53. Most importantly, nuclear translocated Scribble could interact with p53, which lead to enhanced stability and transcriptional activity of p53. Mechanistically, our data suggested that Scribble might drive HCC progression by promoting metabolic regulation of p53 through p53-upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA)-mediated Warburg effect. CONCLUSIONS Our data identified the molecular basis of hepatic fibrosis-specific gene expression of polarity gene, such as Scribble. Interestingly, with the progression from fibrosis to cirrhosis to HCC, its nuclear translocation promoted a wild-type p53-mediated cancer metabolic switch and tumor progression in HCC. Taken together, we demonstrated that Scribble was up-regulated and served a protective role in liver fibrosis, while also apparently acting as a tumor driver in fibrosis-dependent hepatocarcinogenesis.

Mol Clin Oncol 2023; 19:54. [PMID: 37323246 PMCID: PMC10265582 DOI: 10.3892/mco.2023.2650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to determine the expression levels of p53 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to evaluate its association with several HCC-related prognostic factors and in particular, with tumor stage, grade and subtype. Therefore, a cross-sectional study, involving 41 patients with HCC, who underwent surgical resection between January, 2013 and December, 2020 was conducted. To assess the expression levels of p53 in all patients with HCC, immunohistochemical staining was performed. In addition, the association between p53 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with HCC, including prognostic factors, was evaluated by applying the appropriate statistical analysis methods. The results revealed that among the 41 patients enrolled, 35 patients (85.4%) were positive for p53 expression. A higher percentage of positive p53 expression was observed in male patients >60 years old, with single HCC nodules >5 cm in diameter and vascular invasion, compared with their counterparts. A positive p53 expression was associated with well- and poorly differentiated HCC, but not with tumor stage and subtype. No differences in p53 expression were observed across different tumor stages and subtypes. Additionally, patients with moderately and poorly differentiated HCC exhibited significantly higher p53 expression levels compared with those suffering from well-differentiated HCC. Overall, the results demonstrated that the rate of p53 immuno-positive cells was increased in patients with HCC. In addition, p53 expression was associated with well- and poorly differentiated HCC, thus suggesting its association with a poorer prognosis.

Abstract
Serum autoantibodies respond not only to tumor-associated antigens of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) but also to those of liver cirrhosis (LC) and chronic hepatitis (CH). The present prospective multi-institutional study evaluated the diagnostic properties of six autoantibodies in distinguishing HCC from LC and CH. A total of 416 participants were enrolled: 149 With HCC, 76 with LC, 103 with CH and 88 healthy controls. Titers of serum autoantibodies to Sui1, RalA, p62, p53, c-myc and NY-ESO-1 were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. All six antibodies were positive for HCC: s-Sui1-Abs (44%), s-RalA-Abs (23%), s-p62-Abs (21%), s-p53-Abs (13%), s-c-myc-Abs (11%) and s-NY-ESO-1-Abs (6%). The positivity rates of all six antibodies combined were 5% for healthy controls, 52% for CH, 58% for LC and 66% for HCC. The positivity rates of s-Sui1-Abs, s-RalA-Abs and s-p53-Abs were higher for HCC compared with those of LC and CH. However, the positivity rates of s-p62-Abs, s-c-myc-Abs and s-NY-ESO-1-Abs for HCC were not higher compared with those for LC and CH. Overall, autoantibodies were useful in differentiating patients with HCC from healthy individuals. However, they were not specific to HCC and were also present in the sera of individuals with CH and LC. These autoantibodies may be induced during the development of HCC. Clinical trial registration number: UMIN000014530 (date of registration 2011/07/11).

Abstract
Background The HSP70 family of heat shock protein plays a critical role in protein synthesis and transport to maintain protein homeostasis. Several studies have indicated that HSP70s are related to the development and occurrence of various cancers. Methods The relationship between the overall survival rate of hepatocellular carcinoma patients and the expression of 14 HSP70s from multiple databases, such as TCGA, ONCOMINE, cBioPortal was investigated. Western Blot and PCR were used to evaluate HSPA4 and HSPA14 expressions in various HCC cells to identify suitable cell lines for further experiments .Wound-healing assays, Transwell assays and EdU assays were used to verify the effects of HSPA4 and HSPA14 on the function of hepatocellular carcinoma cells, and statistical analysis was performed. Results Hepatocellular carcinoma tissues significantly expressed the 14 HSP70s compared to the normal samples. Besides, the high HSPA1A, HSPA1B, HSPA4, HSPA5, HSPA8, HSPA13, and HSPA14 expressions were inversely associated with the overall survival rate of patients, tumor grade, and cancer stage. A PPI regulatory network was constructed using the 14 HSP70s proteins with HSPA5 and HSPA8 at the network center. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that HSPA4 and HSPA14 could be independent risk factors for the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients. Cell experiments have also confirmed that reducing HSPA4 and HSPA14 expressions can inhibit the invasion, metastasis, and proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Conclusions Therefore, the HSP70s significantly influence the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. For instance, HSPA4 and HSPA14 can be novel therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a significant cellular stress response protein that has intrinsic and extrinsic pathways to protect cells against apoptosis. It is one of the most induced proteins in cancer cells. The aim of the present study is to investigate the significant role of the HSP70 expression in Egyptian patients with breast cancer (BC) and its potential to be as a diagnostic and prognostic marker. MATERIALS AND METHODS HSP70 was examined in 155 cases in this prospective study; patients were subdivided into 3 groups: 60 patients with malignant metastatic disease, 60 patients with malignant non-metastatic disease, and 35 patients with benign lesions as control. HSP70 expression was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistochemistry (IHC). RESULTS Most cases of breast cancer expressed HSP70 in both serum (98.3%) and tumor tissue (90%). A strong positive correlation was found between HSP70 IHC and ELISA (r = 0.811). The mean HSP70 levels, as detected in both patients' serum by ELISA and tumor tissue by IHC, was significantly higher in patients with BC than in benign cases (P = .001). HSP70 was significantly higher in patients with metastatic BC than in those with non-metastatic BC (P = .001). HSP70 showed positive correlation with tumor size (pT stage) and number of lymph node metastases (P ≤ .001). CONCLUSION HSP70 is over-expressed in patients with metastatic and non-metastatic BC than in benign cases. A high level of HSP70 either in patient's serum or in tumor tissue correlated significantly with advanced disease in patients with BC. This present study suggests that HSP70 can serve as a BC biomarker for early screening, diagnosis, and follow-up.

Abstract
The lack of response to pharmacological treatment constitutes a substantial limitation in the handling of patients with primary liver cancers (PLCs). The existence of active mechanisms of chemoresistance (MOCs) in hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and hepatoblastoma hampers the usefulness of chemotherapy. A better understanding of MOCs is needed to develop strategies able to overcome drug refractoriness in PLCs. With this aim, several experimental models are commonly used. These include in vitro cell-free assays using subcellular systems; studies with primary cell cultures; cancer cell lines or heterologous expression systems; multicellular models, such as spheroids and organoids; and a variety of in vivo models in rodents, such as subcutaneous and orthotopic tumor xenografts or chemically or genetically induced liver carcinogenesis. Novel methods to perform programmed genomic edition and more efficient techniques to isolate circulating microvesicles offer new opportunities for establishing useful experimental tools for understanding the resistance to chemotherapy in PLCs. In the present review, using three criteria for information organization: (1) level of research; (2) type of MOC; and (3) type of PLC, we have summarized the advantages and limitations of the armamentarium available in the field of pharmacological investigation of PLC chemoresistance.

Abstract
In developing countries, including Indonesia, there is a high mortality rate associated with the progression of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated chronic liver disease (CLD). The pathogenesis of HBV infection is influenced by viral and host factors. To determine potential associations between these factors, host single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on TNF-α, TGF-β1 and p53, HBV X gene mutation and HBV viral load were investigated in patients with HBV-associated CLD in Surabaya, Indonesia. Sera were collected from 87 CLD patients with HBV infection. TNF-α, TGF-β1 and p53 SNPs were genotyped by PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism. The HBV X gene was sequenced and compared with reference strains to determine mutations and the viral load was measured using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. In Indonesian patients, no association between TNF-α, TGF-β1 and p53 SNPs and CLD or X gene mutation were identified. A total of 23% (20/87) of samples had HBV X gene mutations, including ten substitution types, one deletion and one insertion. Multinomial regression analysis revealed that the K130M/V131I mutations were correlated with CLD progression (OR, 7.629; 95% CI, 1.578-36.884). Significant differences in viral load were found in HBV-infected patients who had X gene mutations, such as R87W/G, I127L/T/N/S and K130M/V131I mutations (P<0.05). The presence of K130M and V131I mutations may be predictive for the progression of HBV-associated CLD in Indonesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a large family of chaperones implicating in occurrence and progression of tumor. In our previous study, we found HSP10 correlates with poor prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma and astrocytoma. HSP70 is also an important part of this family and whether the alterations of HSP10 and HSP70 expression and their common expression correlates with carcinogenesis and progression of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has not been reported. METHOD In this study, we investigate the correlation between the expression of HSP10 and HSP70 and clinicopathological characteristics in NPC by immunohistochemistry (IHC). RESULTS Results indicated that positive expression of HSP10 and HSP70 was higher in NPC tissues (both P<0.001). Positive expression of HSP10 and HSP70 proteins, and common positive expression of the two HSPs analyzed in advanced clinical stages were higher than that in early clinical stages (All P<0.05). There was significantly higher expression of HSP10, HSP70, and common expression in NPC with LNM (lymph node metastasis) compared with NPC without LNM (All P<0.05). Interestingly, positive expression of HSP10 and HSP70 proteins and common expression had an evidently inverse correlation with survival status (All P<0.05). Spearman's correlation analysis showed expression of HSP10 was positively associated with HSP70 (r=0.407, P<0 0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the overall survival rates for NPC patients with positive expression of HSP10 and HSP70 and common expression were significantly lower than these patients with negative expression (All P<0.05). Furthermore, positive expression of HSP10 and HSP70 proteins was identified as independent poor prognostic factors for NPC patients (both P<0.05) by Cox regression analysis. CONCLUSION In conclusion, HSP10 and HSP70 can serve as the poor prognostic factors for NPC patients.

Baek JA, Choi JH, Gu MJ. The loss of CD44 and HSP70 overexpression is related to aggressive clinicopathologic factors in prostate cancer. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PATHOLOGY 2018; 11:5466-5472.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer in men with biologically highly heterogeneous clinical outcomes despite early detection. Therefore, the identification of novel molecular markers that are associated with biological aggressiveness is essential for predicting clinical outcomes and deciding the treatment of PC. We examined the expression of cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in PC cells using immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays and evaluated their clinicopathological significance. A loss of CD44 expression and HSP70 overexpression were observed in 62 (57.9%) and 54 (50.5%) out of 107 cases of PC, respectively. CD44-negative PC showed more vascular invasion, more extra-prostatic extension, more capsular invasion, higher pT stages, higher pathological tumor stages, higher prostate-specific antigen levels (> 20 ng/mL), and higher grades groups. Overexpression of HSP70 was significantly associated with PC with capsular invasion, higher pT stages, and higher pathological tumor stages. The loss of CD44 expression is correlated with tumor invasiveness and higher Gleason grades, reflecting the features of aggressive tumors. Consequently, CD44 could be an important biomarker and a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
A characteristic shared by most frequent types of primary liver cancer, i.e., hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) in adults, and in a lesser extent hepatoblastoma (HB) mainly in children, is their high refractoriness to chemotherapy. This is the result of synergic interactions among complex and diverse mechanisms of chemoresistance (MOC) in which more than 100 genes are involved. Pharmacological treatment, although it can be initially effective, frequently stimulates the expression of MOC genes, which results in the relapse of the tumor, usually with a more aggressive and less chemosensitive phenotype. Identification of the MOC genetic signature accounting for the "resistome" present at each moment of tumor life would prevent the administration of chemotherapeutic regimens without chance of success but still with noxious side effects for the patient. Moreover, a better description of cancer cells strength is required to develop novel strategies based on pharmacological, cellular or gene therapy to overcome liver cancer chemoresistance.

Abstract
Background: MicroRNA deregulation may occur during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) genesis and progression
stages. MicroRNA-34a (miR-34a) functions as a tumor suppressor and is down-regulated or silenced in a variety of
human cancers, while heat shock proteins (Hsps) play important roles in assisting protein folding and preventing
both protein aggregation and transport across membranes. The present study aimed to evaluating serum expression of
miR-34a and its target Hsp70 for early detection of HCC in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), focusing on correlations
with clinicopathological features. Methods: A total of 180 patients were included: 120 with HCC on top of LC (60 with
either early or late HCC) and 60 patients with HCV-related LC. In addition, 60 healthy individuals were considered as
controls. Real-time polymerase chain reactions were performed for expression profiling of serum miR-34a and Hsp70
and for allelic discrimination of the promotor variant (rs2763979, C/T). In addition, in silico analysis was carried out.
Results: All participants were heterozygote for the promotor polymorphism. miR-34a serum levels were significantly
under-expressed in LC and especially HCC patients as compared to controls. Associations with a high Child-Turcotte-
Pugh (CTP) score, advanced cancer stage, and number of masses were noted. In contrast the target Hsp70 was significantly
overexpressed in cancer patients but not in LC group and inversely correlated with miR-34a levels. Conclusion: Utility
of circulating miRNAs as biomarkers for early detection of HCC was raised. Future large-scale studies are warranted
to confirm the current findings.

Abstract
Hepatitis B is one of most etiologies of Liver cirrhosis in China, and clinically lacks the effective strategy for Hepatitis B caused cirrhosis (HBC) therapy. As a complementary and alternative medicine, Chinese Traditional Medicine (TCM) has special therapeutic effects for HBC. Here, we focus on the evolution process of HBC TCM syndromes, which was from Excessive (Liver-Gallbladder Dampness-Heat Syndrome, LGDHS) to Deficient (Liver-Kidney Deficiency Syndrome, LKYDS) via Excessive-Deficient syndrome (Liver-Depression and Spleen-Deficiency Syndrome, LDSDS). Using R package, 16 miRNAs in LGDHS/Normal, 48 miRNAs in LDSDS/LGDHS, and 16 miRNAs in LKYDS/LDSDS were identified, respectively. The miRNA-target networks show that the LDSDS was most stability and complicated. Subsequently, 4 kernel miRNAs with LGDHS-LDSDS process, and 5 kernel miRNAs with LDSDS-LKYDS process were screened. Using RT-qPCR data, p1 (hsa-miR-17-3p, -377-3p, -410-3p and -495) and p2 miRNA panel (hsa-miR-377-3p, -410-3p, -27a-3p, 149-5p and 940) were identified by Logistic Regression Model, which clearly improve the accuracy of TCM syndrome classification. The rebuilt miRNA-target network shows that the LDSDS is a critical point and might determine the evolution directions of HBC TCM syndrome. This study suggests that the identified kernel miRNAs act as potential biomarkers and benefit to evaluate the evolution tendency of HBC TCM syndromes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a multistage process resulting from various genetic changes. We aimed to determine nuclear phosphoprotein c-Myc and cellular phosphoprotein p53 expression and to evaluate their importance in HCC diagnosis. METHODS One hundred and twenty chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients (60 non-HCC CHC patients and 60 HCC patients who had a single small (<5 cm) tumour) were recruited. The gene products of c-Myc and p53 were identified in liver tissues and serum samples using immunostaining, western blot and ELISA. RESULTS Immunohistochemical detection of c-Myc and p53 with monospecific antibodies revealed intense and diffuse cytoplasmic staining patterns. Accumulated mutant proteins, released from tumour cells into the extracellular serum, were detected at 62 KDa, for c-Myc, and 53 KDa, for p53, using western blotting. In contrast to alpha feto-protein, there was a significant increase (p < 0.0001) in the positivity rate of c-Myc (86.7% vs. 6.7%) and p53 (78.3% vs. 8.3%) in the malignant vs. non-malignant patients. The parallel combination of c-Myc and p53 reach the absolute sensitivity (100%), for more accurate and reliable HCC detection (specificity was 87%). CONCLUSION c-Myc and p53 are potential HCC diagnostic biomarkers, and convenient combinations of them could improve diagnostic accuracy of HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant tumor that is common China. Early diagnosis is of great significance for improving treatment efficiency. GPC3 level is closely related to HCC occurrence. This study investigated GPC3 expression in HCC patient serum and tissue, and assessed the significance of GPC3 combined AFP detection in HCC diagnosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 76 HCC patients in our hospital were enrolled. Immunohistochemistry was applied to test GPC3 expression in cancer tissue and para-carcinoma tissue. ELISA and RT-PCR were used to detect GPC3 and AFP level in serum. The significance of GPC3 single or combined AFP detection in HCC diagnosis was analyzed. RESULTS Immunohistochemistry showed that the GPC3 positive expression rate was obviously elevated in HCC tissue (P<0.01). Combination detection of AFP and GPC3 presented significantly higher sensitivity and specificity in HCC than single AFP or GPC3 detection. ELISA showed no significant difference in sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy compared with RT-PCR. CONCLUSIONS Serum GPC3 was overexpressed in HCC patients. Combination detection of serum AFP and GPC3 can enhance accuracy and efficacy of HCC diagnosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are outstanding as novel cancer biomarkers with great prospects. Herein, we focused on summarizing the overall diagnostic evaluation of lncRNAs for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS Relevant literature was collected from the online databases. The Quality Assessment for Studies of Diagnostic Accuracy checklist was used to assess the quality of included studies. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) were plotted using random-effects models. Summary receiver operating characteristic curve and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to estimate the overall test performance. Statistical analysis was performed by STATA 14.0 and Meta-DiSc 1.4 software. RESULTS Ten studies with a total of 820 HCC patients and 785 healthy controls were included. For overall lncRNAs, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, and DOR to predict HCC patients were 80% [95% confidence interval (CI) 77-82%], 79% (95% CI 76-81%), and 27.66 (95% CI 14.26-53.63), respectively, corresponding to an AUC of 0.91. CONCLUSIONS LncRNAs were a high diagnostic value for HCC and its expression could potentially be used as auxiliary biomarker in confirming HCC.
