Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the potential role of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A (STAT5A) in the metastasis of breast cancer, and its mechanism of regulation underlying. METHODS AND RESULTS TCGA datasets were used to evaluate the expression of STAT5A in normal and different cancerous tissues through TIMER2.0, indicating that STAT5A level was decreased in breast cancer tissues compared with normal ones. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis predicted that STAT5A was associated with the activation of immune cells and cell cycle process. We further demonstrated that the infiltration of immune cells was positively associated with STAT5A level. Influorescence staining revealed the expression and distribution of F-actin was regulated by STAT5A, while colony formation assay, wound healing and transwell assays predicted the inhibitory role of STAT5A in the colony formation, migratory and invasive abilities in breast cancer cells. In addition, overexpression of the Notch3 intracellular domain (N3ICD), the active form of Notch3, resulted in the increased expression of STAT5A. Conversely, silencing of Notch3 expression by siNotch3 decreased STAT5A expression, supporting that STAT5A expression is positively associated with Notch3 in human breast cancer cell lines and breast cancer tissues. Mechanistically, chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that Notch3 was directly bound to the STAT5A promoter and induced the expression of STAT5A. Moreover, overexpressing STAT5A partially reversed the enhanced mobility of breast cancer cells following Notch3 silencing. Low expression of Notch3 and STAT5A predicted poorer prognosis of patients with breast cancer. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that Notch3 inhibits metastasis in breast cancer through inducing transcriptionally STAT5A, which was associated with tumor-infiltrating immune cells, providing a novel strategy to treat breast cancer.

Abstract
Signal transducers and activators of transcription or STAT are proteins that consist of various transcription factors that are responsible for activating genes regarding cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. They commonly activate several cytokine, growth, or hormone factors via the JAK-STAT signaling pathway by tyrosine phosphorylation which are responsible for giving rise to numerous immune responses. Mutations within the Janus-Kinases (JAKs) or the STATs can set off the commencement of various malfunctions of the immune system of the body; carcinogenesis being an inevitable outcome. STATs are known to act as both oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes which makes it a hot topic of investigation. Various STATs related mechanisms are currently being investigated to analyze its potential of serving as a therapeutic base for numerous immune diseases and cancer; a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the signaling pathways can contribute to the same. This review will throw light upon each STAT member in causing cancer malignancies by affecting subsequent signaling pathways and its genetic and epigenetic associations as well as various inhibitors that could be used to target these pathways thereby devising new treatment options. The review will also focus upon the therapeutic advances made in cancers that most commonly affect people and discuss how STAT genes are identified as prognostic markers.

Abstract
The treatment of cancer patients has been prohibited by chemoresistance. Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anti-tumor compound disrupting proliferation and triggering cell cycle arrest via inhibiting activity of topoisomerase I and II. miRNAs are endogenous RNAs localized in cytoplasm to reduce gene level. Abnormal expression of miRNAs changes DOX cytotoxicity. Overexpression of tumor-promoting miRNAs induces DOX resistance, while tumor-suppressor miRNAs inhibit DOX resistance. The miRNA-mediated regulation of cell death and hallmarks of cancer can affect response to DOX chemotherapy in tumor cells. The transporters such as P-glycoprotein are regulated by miRNAs in DOX chemotherapy. Upstream mediators including lncRNAs and circRNAs target miRNAs in affecting capacity of DOX. The response to DOX chemotherapy can be facilitated after administration of agents that are mostly phytochemicals including curcumol, honokiol and ursolic acid. These agents can regulate miRNA expression increasing DOX's cytotoxicity. Since delivery of DOX alone or in combination with other drugs and genes can cause synergistic impact, the nanoparticles have been introduced for drug sensitivity. The non-coding RNAs determine the response of tumor cells to doxorubicin chemotherapy. microRNAs play a key role in this case and they can be sponged by lncRNAs and circRNAs, showing interaction among non-coding RNAs in the regulation of doxorubicin sensitivity.

Abstract
Introduction The molecular mechanism of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer is not well understood. The identification of genes associated with chemoresistance is critical for a better understanding of the molecular processes driving resistance. Methods This study used a co-expression network analysis of Adriamycin (or doxorubicin)-resistant MCF-7 (MCF-7/ADR) and its parent MCF-7 cell lines to explore the mechanisms of drug resistance in breast cancer. Genes associated with doxorubicin resistance were extracted from two microarray datasets (GSE24460 and GSE76540) obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database using the GEO2R web tool. The candidate differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with the highest degree and/or betweenness in the co-expression network were selected for further analysis. The expression of major DEGs was validated experimentally using qRT-PCR. Results We identified twelve DEGs in MCF-7/ADR compared with its parent MCF-7 cell line, including 10 upregulated and 2 downregulated DEGs. Functional enrichment suggests a key role for RNA binding by IGF2BPs and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition pathways in drug resistance in breast cancer. Discussion Our findings suggested that MMP1, VIM, CNN3, LDHB, NEFH, PLS3, AKAP12, TCEAL2, and ABCB1 genes play an important role in doxorubicin resistance and could be targeted for developing novel therapies by chemical synthesis approaches.

Abstract
The erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) is a transmembrane type I receptor with an essential role in the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitors. Besides its function during erythropoiesis, EPOR is expressed and has protective effect in various non-hematopoietic tissues, including tumors. Currently, the advantageous aspect of EPOR related to different cellular events is still under scientific investigation. Besides its well-known effect on cell proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation, our integrative functional study revealed its possible associations with metabolic processes, transport of small molecules, signal transduction and tumorigenesis. Comparative transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) identified 233 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in EPOR overexpressed RAMA 37-28 cells compared to parental RAMA 37 cells, whereas 145 genes were downregulated and 88 upregulated. Of these, for example, GPC4, RAP2C, STK26, ZFP955A, KIT, GAS6, PTPRF and CXCR4 were downregulated and CDH13, NR0B1, OCM2, GPM6B, TM7SF3, PARVB, VEGFD and STAT5A were upregulated. Surprisingly, two ephrin receptors, EPHA4 and EPHB3, and EFNB1 ligand were found to be upregulated as well. Our study is the first demonstrating robust differentially expressed genes evoked by simple EPOR overexpression without the addition of erythropoietin ligand in a manner which remains to be elucidated.

Mir-153-3p Modulates the Breast Cancer Cells’ Chemosensitivity to Doxorubicin by Targeting KIF20A. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15061724. [PMID: 36980610 PMCID: PMC10046630 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15061724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Breast cancer is considered the solid tumor most sensitive to chemotherapy. However, it can become resistant to various chemotherapeutic drugs, including doxorubicin, which triggers cell death by intercalation between DNA bases, free radical formation, and topoisomerase II inhibition. When drug resistance develops, several miRNAs are dysregulated, suggesting that miRNAs may play a significant role in resistance formation. In the current study, we investigated how doxorubicin sensitivity of breast cancer cells is affected by miR-153-3p and its target gene. The MTT method was used to determine the chemo-sensitizing effect of miR-153-3p on doxorubicin in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Results of Western blot and dual luciferase confirmed that miR-153-3p targets KIF20A and decreases its expression. Transwell and flow cytometry experiments showed that miR-153-3p and doxorubicin together had higher effects on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as increasing apoptosis and arresting cells in the G1 phase. Proteins related to apoptosis and the cell cycle exhibited the same tendency. Intracellular vesicle formation was inhibited and RAB26 was also downregulated by treatment with miR-153-3p alone or in combination with doxorubicin. Doxorubicin’s ability to suppress tumors may be enhanced by miR-153-3p, according to in vivo studies. According to our findings, miR-153-3p has a direct effect on KIF20A and may regulate the formation of intracellular vesicles, which in turn makes breast cancer cells more susceptible to doxorubicin.

Abstract
Simple Summary The effectiveness and safety of the anti-cancer agent doxorubicin (anthracycline group medicine) depend on the metabolism and retention of the drug in the human organism. Polymorphism of cytochrome p450 (CYP)-encoding genes and detoxifying enzymes such as CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 were found responsible for variations in the doxorubicin metabolism. Transmembrane transporters such as p-glycoproteins were reported to be involved in cancer tissue retention of doxorubicin. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family members, including ABCB1 transporters (also known as Multi-Drug Resistance 1 (MDR1)) proteins, were determined to pump out doxorubicin from breast cancer cells, therefore reducing the drug effectiveness. This study critically discusses the latest data about the role of CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and ABCB1 gene polymorphism in the regulation of doxorubicin’s effects in breast cancer patients. The assessment of genetic differences in the expression of doxorubicin metabolizing and transporting enzymes should be explored for the development of personalized medical treatment of breast cancer patients. Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is the prevailing malignancy and major cause of cancer-related death in females. Doxorubicin is a part of BC neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy regimens. The administration of anthracycline derivates, such as doxorubicin, may cause several side effects, including hematological disfunction, gastrointestinal toxicity, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and cardiotoxicity. Cardiotoxicity is a major adverse reaction to anthracyclines, and it may vary depending on individual differences in doxorubicin pharmacokinetics. Determination of specific polymorphisms of genes that can alter doxorubicin metabolism was shown to reduce the risk of adverse reactions and improve the safety and efficacy of doxorubicin. Genes which encode cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP3A4 and CYP2D6), p-glycoproteins (ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family members such as Multi-Drug Resistance 1 (MDR1) protein), and other detoxifying enzymes were shown to control the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of doxorubicin. The effectiveness of doxorubicin is defined by the polymorphism of cytochrome p450 and p-glycoprotein-encoding genes. This study critically discusses the latest data about the role of gene polymorphisms in the regulation of doxorubicin’s anti-BC effects. The correlation of genetic differences with the efficacy and safety of doxorubicin may provide insights for the development of personalized medical treatment for BC patients.

Construction of Molecular Subtype and Prognosis Prediction Model of Osteosarcoma Based on Aging-Related Genes. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:8177948. [PMID: 36157228 PMCID: PMC9507679 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8177948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Background Osteosarcoma (OS) is a rare form of malignant bone cancer that is usually detected in young adults and adolescents. This disease shows a poor prognosis owing to its metastatic status and resistance to chemotherapy. Hence, it is necessary to design a risk model that can successfully forecast the OS prognosis in patients. Methods The researchers retrieved the RNA sequencing data and follow-up clinical data related to OS patients from the TARGET and GEO databases, respectively. The coxph function in R software was used for carrying out the Univariate Cox regression analysis for deriving the aging-based genes related sto the OS prognosis. The researchers conducted consistency clustering using the ConcensusClusterPlus R package. The R software package ESTIMATE, MCPcounter, and GSVA packages were used for assessing the immune scores of various subtypes using the ssGSEA technique, respectively. The Univariate Cox and Lasso regression analyses were used for screening and developing a risk model. The ROC curves were constructed, using the pROC package. The performance of their developed risk model and designed survival curve was conducted, with the help of the Survminer package. Results The OS patients were classified into 2 categories, as per the aging-related genes. The results revealed that the Cluster 1 patients showed a better prognosis than the Cluster 2 patients. Both clusters showed different immune microenvironments. Additional screening of the prognosis-associated genes revealed the presence of 5 genes, i.e., ERCC4, GPX4, EPS8, TERT, and STAT5A, and these data were used for developing the risk model. This risk model categorized the training set samples into the high- and low-risk groups. The patients classified into the high-risk group showed a poor OS prognosis compared to the low-risk patients. The researchers verified the reliability and robustness of the designed 5-gene signature using the internal and external datasets. This risk model was able to effectively predict the prognosis even in the samples having differing clinical features. Compared with other models, the 5- gene model performs better in predicting the risk of osteosarcoma.

The effect of ciprofloxacin on doxorubicin cytotoxic activity in the acquired resistance to doxorubicin in DU145 prostate carcinoma cells. MEDICAL ONCOLOGY (NORTHWOOD, LONDON, ENGLAND) 2022; 39:194. [PMID: 36071289 DOI: 10.1007/s12032-022-01787-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/28/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
The present study aimed to assess the influence of ciprofloxacin (CIP) against the doxorubicin (DOX)-resistant androgen-independent prostate cancer DU145 cells. The DOX-resistant DU145 (DU145/DOX20) cells were established by exposing DU145 cells to the increasing concentrations of DOX. The antiproliferative effect of CIP was examined through employing MTT, colony formation, and 3D culture assays. DU145/DOX20 cells exhibited a twofold higher IC50 value for DOX, an increased ABCB1 transporter activity, and some morphological changes accompanied by a decrease in spheroid size, adhesive and migration potential compared to DU145 cells. CIP (5 and 25 µg mL-1) resulted in a higher reduction in the viability of DU145/DOX20 cells than in DU145 cells. DU145/DOX20 cells were more resistant to CIP in 3D culture compared to the 2D one. No spheroid formation was observed for DU145/DOX20 cells treated with DOX and CIP combination. CIP and DOX, alone or in combination, significantly reduced the growth of DU145 spheroids. CIP in combination with 20 nM DOX prevented the colony formation of DU145 cells. The clonogenicity of DU145/DOX20 cells could not be estimated due to their low adhesive potential. CIP alone caused a significant reduction in the migration of DU145 cells and resulted in a more severe decrease in the wound closure ability of DOX-exposed ones. We identified that CIP enhanced DOX sensitivity in DU145 and DU145/DOX20 cells. This study suggested the co-delivery of low concentrations of CIP and DOX may be a promising strategy in treating the DOX-resistant and -sensitive hormone-refractory prostate cancer.

SCAMP3 Regulates EGFR and Promotes Proliferation and Migration of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells through the Modulation of AKT, ERK, and STAT3 Signaling Pathways. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:2807. [PMID: 35681787 PMCID: PMC9179572 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14112807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Revised: 06/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive, metastatic, and lethal breast cancer subtype. To improve the survival of TNBC patients, it is essential to explore new signaling pathways for the further development of effective drugs. This study aims to investigate the role of the secretory carrier membrane protein 3 (SCAMP3) in TNBC and its association with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Through an internalization assay, we demonstrated that SCAMP3 colocalizes and redistributes EGFR from the cytoplasm to the perinucleus. Furthermore, SCAMP3 knockout decreased proliferation, colony and tumorsphere formation, cell migration, and invasion of TNBC cells. Immunoblots and degradation assays showed that SCAMP3 regulates EGFR through its degradation. In addition, SCAMP3 modulates AKT, ERK, and STAT3 signaling pathways. TNBC xenograft models showed that SCAMP3 depletion delayed tumor cell proliferation at the beginning of tumor development and modulated the expression of genes from the PDGF pathway. Additionally, analysis of TCGA data revealed elevated SCAMP3 expression in breast cancer tumors. Finally, patients with TNBC with high expression of SCAMP3 showed decreased RFS and DMFS. Our findings indicate that SCAMP3 could contribute to TNBC development through the regulation of multiple pathways and has the potential to be a target for breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
Colon cancer is among the most prevalent gastrointestinal tumor types. The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) T cell leukemia homeobox 1 neighbor (TLX1NB) is up-regulated in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the functional role of this lncRNA in colon cancer remains unknown. In our study, we investigated the clinical significance of TLX1NB in colon cancer through bioinformatics analysis and explored its role in migration, invasion and metastasis of colon cancer cell with a series of experiments. Firstly, TLX1NB was up-regulated in colon cancer tissues and increased TLX1NB expression was significantly associated with advanced N stages. In wound healing assays and transwell assays, TLX1NB overexpression promoted HCT116 cell migration and invasion while TLX1NB knockdown inhibited SW620 cell migration and invasion. In vivo, TLX1NB knockdown suppressed pulmonary metastasis of SW620 cell and vimentin expression but increased E-cadherin expression. Then, TLX1NB overexpression enhanced signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A (STAT5A) phosphorylation and TLX1NB knockdown suppressed STAT5A phosphorylation. Moreover, the inhibition of STAT5A phosphorylation reversed TLX1NB overexpression-associated increase in HCT116 cell migratory and invasive activity. In conclusion, TLX1NB enhances STAT5A phosphorylation to promote colon cancer cell invasion, migration, and metastasis.

Mol Ther Oncolytics 2022; 24:59-76. [PMID: 34977342 PMCID: PMC8703189 DOI: 10.1016/j.omto.2021.11.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a promising oncolytic virus (OV) against different malignancies, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Our previous studies have demonstrated that VSV-based OVs are effective against the majority of tested human PDAC cell lines. However, some PDAC cell lines are resistant to VSV. PDAC is one of the deadliest types of human malignancies in part due to intrinsic or acquired chemoresistance. Here, we investigated how acquired chemoresistance impacts the efficacy of VSV-based OV therapy. Using an experimental evolution approach, we generated PDAC cell lines with increased resistance to gemcitabine and examined their responsiveness to oncolytic virotherapy. We found that gemcitabine-resistant PDAC cells become more resistant to VSV. The cross-resistance correlated with upregulated levels of a subset of interferon-stimulated genes, resembling the interferon-related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS), often associated with resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Analysis of ten different PDAC cell lines showed that four PDAC cell lines most resistant to VSV were also highly resistant to gemcitabine, and they all displayed IRDS-like expression in our previous reports. Our study highlights a possible interaction between two different therapies that should be considered in the future for the development of rational treatment regimens.
