Abstract
The transmembrane glycoprotein adhesion molecule CD146 is overexpressed in a wide variety of cancers. Through molecular imaging, a specific biomarker's expression and distribution can be viewed in vivo non-invasively. Radionuclide-labeled monoclonal antibodies or relevant fragments that target CD146 may find potential applications in cancer imaging, thereby offering tremendous value in cancer diagnosis, staging, prognosis evaluation, and prediction of drug resistance. This review discusses the recent developments of CD146-targeted molecular imaging via nuclear medicine, especially in malignant melanoma, brain tumor, lung cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Many studies have proved that CD146 targeting may present a promising strategy for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is one of the cancers with the highest morbidity and mortality. Although several therapeutic approaches have been developed to treat this disease, the overall survival rate is still very low due to metastasis, drug resistance, and so forth. Therefore, it is necessary to discover new regulatory molecules and signaling pathways that modulate the metastasis of gastric cancer cells. A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease 12 (ADAM12) was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues and presented in the patient urine. However, it is unclear whether and how ADAM12 regulates the migration of gastric cancer cells. In this work, we used the secretome protein enrichment with click sugars (SPECS) method to purify the secreted glycosylated proteins and performed quantitative proteomics to identify the secreted proteins that were differentially regulated by ADAM12S, the short and secreted form of ADAM12. Our proteomic and biochemical analyses revealed that ADAM12S upregulated the cell surface glycoprotein CD146, a cell adhesion molecule and melanoma marker, which was dependent on the catalytic residue of ADAM12S. Furthermore, we discovered that the ADAM12S-enhanced migration of gastric cancer cells was, at least partially, mediated by CD146. This work may help to evaluate whether ADAM12 could be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of gastric cancer patients.

CD146 mediates the anti-apoptotic role of Netrin-1 in endothelial progenitor cells under hypoxic conditions. Mol Med Rep 2021; 25:5.

Abstract
Modulating the biological status of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), such as function and survival, is essential for therapeutic angiogenesis in ischemic vascular disease environments. This study aimed to explore the role and molecular mechanisms underlying Netrin-1 in the viability and angiogenic function of EPCs. EPCs were isolated from the bone barrow of adult C57/BL6 mice. The apoptosis and various functions of EPCs were analyzed in vitro by manipulating the expression of Netrin-1. The TUNEL assay was performed to detect apoptotic EPCs. Cell migration and tube formation assays were performed to detect EPC function. Trypan blue staining was performed to detect cell viability. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the protein expression levels of Netrin-1, CD146 and apoptotic factors. Quantitative PCR analysis was performed to detect the expression levels of Netrin-1 receptors. The results demonstrated that treatment with exogenous Netrin-1 promoted EPC migration and tube formation, whereas transfection with small interfering (si)RNA targeting Netrin-1 exhibited the opposite effects. Exogenous Netrin-1 protected EPCs from hypoxia-induced apoptosis, whereas the interruption of endogenous Netrin-1 enhancement under hypoxia by Netrin-1-siRNA exacerbated the apoptosis of EPCs. Furthermore, CD146, one of the immunoglobulin receptors activated by Netrin-1, was screened for in the present study. Results demonstrated that CD146 did not participate in Netrin-1-promoted EPC function, but mediated the anti-apoptotic effects of Netrin-1 in EPCs. In conclusion, Netrin-1 enhanced the angiogenic function of EPCs and alleviated hypoxia-induced apoptosis, which was mediated by CD146. This biological function of Netrin-1 may provide a potential therapeutic option to promote EPCs for the treatment of ischemic vascular diseases.

Abstract
CD146 is cell adhesion molecule and is implicated in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. However, the involvement of CD146 in peripheral nerve regeneration has not been studied yet. Here, we examine the spatial and temporal expression pattern of CD146 in injured mouse sciatic nerve via high-throughput data analysis, RT-PCR and immunostaining. By microarray data analysis and RT-PCR validation, we show that CD146 mRNA is significantly up-regulated in the nerve bridge and in the distal nerve stump following mouse sciatic nerve transection injury. By single cell sequencing data analysis and immunostaining, we demonstrate that CD146 is up-regulated in Schwann cells and cells associated with blood vessels following mouse peripheral nerve injury. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that CD146 not only has a key role in promoting of blood vessel regeneration but also regulates cell migration. The biological function of CD146 in Schwann cells was further investigated by knockdown of CD146 in rat primary Schwann cells. Functional assessments showed that knockdown of CD146 decreases viability and proliferation of Schwann cells but increases Schwann cell migration. Collectively, our findings imply that CD146 could be a key cell adhesion molecule that is up-regulated in injured peripheral nerves to regulate peripheral nerve regeneration.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the USA and worldwide. Yet, about 95% of new drug candidates validated in preclinical phase eventually fail in clinical trials. Such a high attrition rate is attributed mostly to the inability of conventional two-dimensionally (2D) cultured cancer cells to mimic native three-dimensional (3D) growth of malignant cells in human tumors. To ascertain phenotypical differences between these two distinct culture conditions, we carried out a comparative proteomic analysis of a membrane fraction obtained from 3D- and 2D-cultured NSCLC model cell line NCI-H23. This analysis revealed a map of 1,166 (24%) protein species regulated in culture dependent manner, including differential regulation of a subset of cell surface-based CD molecules. We confirmed exclusive expression of CD99, CD146 and CD239 in 3D culture. Furthermore, label-free quantitation, targeting KRas proteoform-specific peptides, revealed upregulation of both wild type and monoallelic KRas4BG12C mutant at the surface of 3D cultured cells. In order to reduce the high attrition rate of new drug candidates, the results of this study strongly suggests exploiting base-line molecular profiling of a large number of patient-derived NSCLC cell lines grown in 2D and 3D culture, prior to actual drug candidate testing.

Front Immunol 2020; 11:1598. [PMID: 32793232 PMCID: PMC7387705 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2020.01598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2019] [Accepted: 06/16/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is essential in asthma airway remodeling. IL-33 from epithelial cells is involved in pulmonary fibrosis. CD146 has been extensively explored in cancer-associated EMT. Whether IL-33 regulates CD146 in the EMT process associated with asthma airway remodeling is still largely unknown. We hypothesized that EMT in airway remodeling was regulated by the IL-33/CD146 axis. House dust mite (HDM) extract increased the expression of IL-33 and CD146 in epithelial cells. Increased expression of CD146 in HDM-treated epithelial cells could be blocked with an ST2-neutralizing antibody. Moreover, HDM-induced EMT was dependent on the CD146 and TGF-β/SMAD-3 signaling pathways. IL-33 deficiency decreased CD146 expression and alleviated asthma severity. Similarly, CD146 deficiency mitigated EMT and airway remodeling in a murine model of chronic allergic airway inflammation. Furthermore, CD146 expression was significantly elevated in asthma patients. We concluded that IL-33 from HDM extract-treated alveolar epithelial cells stimulated CD146 expression, promoting EMT in airway remodeling in chronic allergic inflammation.
