Abstract
The AT-rich interacting domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) is a tumor suppressor gene that has been implicated in several cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). The present study used a proteomic approach to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of ARID1A in CRC carcinogenesis. Stable ARID1A-overexpressing SW48 colon cancer cells were established using lentivirus transduction and the successful overexpression of ARID1A was confirmed by western blotting. Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry identified 705 differentially altered proteins in the ARID1A-overexpressing cells, with 310 proteins significantly increased and 395 significantly decreased compared with empty vector control cells. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis highlighted the involvement of the altered proteins mainly in the Wnt signaling pathway. Western blotting supported these findings, as a decreased protein expression of Wnt target genes, including c-Myc, transcription factor T cell factor-1/7 and cyclin D1, were observed in ARID1A-overexpressing cells. Among the altered proteins involved in the Wnt signaling pathway, the interaction network analysis revealed that ARID1A exhibited a direct interaction with E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase zinc and ring finger 3 (ZNRF3), a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway. Further analyses using the The Cancer Genome Atlas colon adenocarcinoma public dataset revealed that ZNRF3 expression significantly impacted the overall survival of patients with CRC and was positively correlated with ARID1A expression. Finally, an increased level of ZNRF3 in ARID1A-overexpressing cells was confirmed by western blotting. In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggest that ARID1A negatively regulates the Wnt signaling pathway through ZNRF3, which may contribute to CRC carcinogenesis.

Abstract
In vitro investigations of mast cell (MC) degranulation are essential for studying many diseases, particularly allergy and urticaria. Many MC-degranulation inducers are currently available. However, there is no previous systematic comparative analysis of these available inducers in term of their efficacies to induce MC degranulation. Herein, we performed systematic comparisons of efficacies of five well-known and commonly used MC-degranulation inducers. RBL-2H3 cells were sensitized with 50 ng/ml anti-DNP IgE or biotinylated IgE followed by stimulation with 100 ng/ml DNP-BSA or streptavidin, respectively. For non-IgE-mediated inducers, the cells were treated with 5 µg/ml substance P, compound 48/80, or A23187. At 15-, 30-, 45- and 60-min post-induction, several common MC-degranulation markers (including intracellular [Ca2+], β-hexosaminidase release, tryptase expression by immunofluorescence staining, cellular tryptase level by immunoblotting, secretory tryptase level by immunoblotting, CD63 expression by immunofluorescence staining, and CD63 expression by flow cytometry) were evaluated. The data showed that all these markers significantly increased after activation by all inducers. Among them, A23187 provided the greatest degrees of increases in intracellular [Ca2+] and β-hexosaminidase release at all time-points and upregulation of CD63 at one time-point. These data indicate that all these IgE-mediated (anti-DNP IgE/DNP-BSA and biotinylated IgE/streptavidin) and non-IgE-mediated (substance P, compound 48/80, and A23187) inducers effectively induce MC degranulation, while A23187 seems to be the most effective inducer for MC degranulation.

The protective effect of caffeine against oxalate-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal tubular cells via mitochondrial preservation. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 171:116144.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the key mechanisms for developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hyperoxaluria and nephrolithiasis are also associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Increasing evidence has shown that caffeine, the main bioactive compound in coffee, exerts both anti-fibrotic and anti-lithogenic properties but with unclear mechanisms. Herein, we address the protective effect of caffeine against mitochondrial dysfunction during oxalate-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in renal cells. Analyses revealed that oxalate successfully induced EMT in MDCK renal cells as evidenced by the increased expression of several EMT-related genes (i.e., Snai1, Fn1 and Acta2). Oxalate also suppressed cellular metabolic activity and intracellular ATP level, but increased reactive oxygen species (ROS). Additionally, oxalate reduced abundance of active mitochondria and induced mitochondrial fragmentation (fission). Furthermore, oxalate decreased mitochondrial biogenesis and content as evidenced by decreased expression of sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4 (COX4), and total mitochondrial proteins. Nonetheless, these oxalate-induced deteriorations in MDCK cells and their mitochondria were successfully hampered by caffeine. Knockdown of Snai1 gene by small interfering RNA (siRNA) completely abolished the effects of oxalate on suppression of cellular metabolic activity, intracellular ATP and abundance of active mitochondria, indicating that these oxalate-induced renal cell deteriorations were mediated through the Snai1 EMT-related gene. These data, at least in part, unveil the anti-fibrotic mechanism of caffeine during oxalate-induced EMT in renal cells by preserving mitochondrial biogenesis and function.

Abstract
Tumour cell dormancy is critical for metastasis and resistance to chemoradiotherapy. Polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) with giant or multiple nuclei and high DNA content have the properties of cancer stem cell and single PGCCs can individually generate tumours in immunodeficient mice. PGCCs represent a dormant form of cancer cells that survive harsh tumour conditions and contribute to tumour recurrence. Hypoxic mimics, chemotherapeutics, radiation and cytotoxic traditional Chinese medicines can induce PGCCs formation through endoreduplication and/or cell fusion. After incubation, dormant PGCCs can recover from the treatment and produce daughter cells with strong proliferative, migratory and invasive abilities via asymmetric cell division. Additionally, PGCCs can resist hypoxia or chemical stress and have a distinct protein signature that involves chromatin remodelling and cell cycle regulation. Dormant PGCCs form the cellular basis for therapeutic resistance, metastatic cascade and disease recurrence. This review summarises regulatory mechanisms governing dormant cancer cells entry and exit of dormancy, which may be used by PGCCs, and potential therapeutic strategies for targeting PGCCs.

Identification and characterization of ARID1A-interacting proteins in renal tubular cells and their molecular regulation of angiogenesis. J Transl Med 2023; 21:862.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Defects and deficiency of AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) encoded by a tumor suppressor gene ARID1A have recently been suggested to get involved in angiogenesis, a crucial process in carcinogenesis. However, molecular mechanisms of ARID1A deficiency to induce angiogenesis in kidney cancer remain underinvestigated. METHODS We performed large-scale identification of ARID1A protein interactors in renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) using immunoprecipitation (IP) followed by nanoLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Their roles in angiogenesis were investigated using various assays. RESULTS A total of 74 ARID1A-interacting proteins were identified. Protein-protein interactions analysis revealed that these identified proteins interacted directly or indirectly with ARID1A. Among them, the direct interaction between ARID1A and β-actin was validated by IP and reciprocal IP followed by Western blotting. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used for single and double knockdowns of ARID1A and ACTB. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR demonstrated that deficiency of ARID1A, but not ACTB, significantly affected expression of angiogenesis-related genes in RTECs (VEGF and FGF2 were increased, whereas PDGF and EGF were decreased). However, the knockdowns did not affect TGFB1 and FGF1 levels. The quantitative mRNA expression data of VEGF and TGFB1 were consistent with the secreted levels of their protein products as measured by ELISA. Only secreted products derived from ARID1A-deficient RTECs significantly increased endothelial cells (ECs) migration and tube formation. Some of the other carcinogenic features could also be confirmed in the ARID1A-deficient RTECs, including increased cell migration and chemoresistance. Double knockdowns of both ARID1A and ACTB did not enhance the effects of single ARID1A knockdown in all assays. CONCLUSIONS We report herein a large dataset of the ARID1A-interacting proteins in RTECs using an IP-MS/MS approach and confirm the direct interaction between ARID1A and β-actin. However, the role of ARID1A deficiency in angiogenesis is independent of β-actin.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) has emerged as a significant issue in public health all worldwide as a result of its high mortality rate and dismal prognosis. AT-rich interactive domain 1 A (ARID1A) is a vital component of the switch/sucrose-non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex, and ARID1A mutations occur in various tumors, leading to protein loss and decreased expression; it then affects the tumor biological behavior or prognosis. More significantly, ARID1A mutations will likely be biological markers for immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment and selective targeted therapy. To provide theoretical support for future research on the stratification of individuals with gastric cancer with ARID1A as a biomarker to achieve precision therapy, we have focused on the clinical significance, predictive value, underlying mechanisms, and possible treatment strategies for ARID1A mutations in gastric cancer in this review.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second most frequent cancer in the world. It is a heterogeneous disease and the leading cause of cancer mortality in women. Advances in molecular technologies allowed for the identification of new and more specifics biomarkers for breast cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and risk prediction, enabling personalized treatments, improving therapy, and preventing overtreatment, undertreatment, and incorrect treatment. Several breast cancer biomarkers have been identified and, along with traditional biomarkers, they can assist physicians throughout treatment plan and increase therapy success. Despite the need of more data to improve specificity and determine the real clinical utility of some biomarkers, others are already established and can be used as a guide to make treatment decisions. In this review, we summarize the available traditional, novel, and potential biomarkers while also including gene expression profiles, breast cancer single-cell and polyploid giant cancer cells. We hope to help physicians understand tumor specific characteristics and support decision-making in patient-personalized clinical management, consequently improving treatment outcome.

Abstract
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays essential roles in promoting malignant transformation of epithelial cells, leading to cancer progression and metastasis. During EMT-induced cancer development, a wide variety of genes are dramatically modified, especially down-regulation of epithelial-related genes and up-regulation of mesenchymal-related genes. Expression of other EMT-related genes is also modified during the carcinogenic process. Especially, epigenetic modifications are observed in the EMT-related genes, indicating their involvement in cancer development. Mechanically, epigenetic modifications of histone, DNA, mRNA and non-coding RNA stably change the EMT-related gene expression at transcription and translation levels. Herein, we summarize current knowledge on epigenetic regulatory mechanisms observed in EMT process relate to cancer development in humans. The better understanding of epigenetic regulation of EMT during cancer development may lead to improvement of drug design and preventive strategies in cancer therapy.

Abstract
To address what marker(s) is/are most suitable for determining renal cell senescence, cell area, granularity, cycle shift/arrest, SA-β-Gal, SIRT1 and p16 were evaluated after inducing senescence in HK-2 cells with 0.2-0.8 mM H2O2. Only cell area and granularity concentration-dependently increased at all time-points, whereas SA-β-Gal, SIRT1 and p16 showed significant coefficient of determination (R2) at two time-points. Cell granularity had significant correlation coefficient (R) with other six, whereas SA-β-Gal had significant R with five, and cell area, SIRT1 and p16 had significant R with four others. Comparing to SA-β-Gal, other markers had significantly lower fold-changes only at 72-h with 0.8 mM H2O2, whereas p16 provided greater fold-changes at 48-h with 0.4 and 0.8 mM H2O2. Therefore, cell area, granularity, SA-β-Gal and p16 may serve as the most suitable markers for determining H2O2-induced senescence in HK-2 renal cells, whereas other markers can be also used but with inferior quantitative precision.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world. Although there are standard treatment options for CRC, most patients respond poorly to these treatments. Immunotherapies have gradually emerged due to the increasing awareness and understanding of tumor immunity, exhibiting good therapeutic efficacy in various cancers. Immunotherapies include cytokines, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and adoptive cell therapies. In particular, ICIs, which are antibodies against cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), or its ligand PD-L1, have been successfully applied clinically for solid tumors, relieving the inhibitory effect of the tumor microenvironment on T cells. However, only a minority of patients with cancer achieve a durable clinical response during immunotherapy. Several factors restrict the efficacy of immunotherapy, leading to the development of drug resistance. In this review, we aimed to discuss the current status of immunotherapy for CRC and elaborate on the mechanisms that mediate resistance to immunotherapy and other potential therapeutic strategies.
