Ellagic acid inhibits human colon cancer HCT-116 cells by regulating long noncoding RNAs.

ABSTRACT: The natural phenolic compound ellagic acid exerts anti-cancer effects, including activity against colorectal cancer (CRC). Previously, we reported that ellagic acid can inhibit the proliferation of CRC, and can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. This study investigated ellagic acid-mediated anticancer effects using the human colon cancer HCT-116 cell line. After 72 h of ellagic acid treatment, a total of 206 long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) with differential expression greater than 1.5-fold were identified (115 down-regulated and 91 up-regulated). Furthermore, the co-expression network analysis of differentially expressed lncRNA and mRNA showed that differential expressed lncRNA might be the target of ellagic acid activity in inhibiting CRC.

Bottom-up proteomic analysis of single HCT 116 colon carcinoma multicellular spheroids.

Project description:RationaleProteomic analysis of single multicellular spheroids has not been previously reported. As three-dimensional cell cultures are an increasingly popular model system for biological research, there is interest in obtaining proteomic profiles of these samples. We investigated the proteome of single HCT 116 multicellular spheroids using protocols optimized for small sample sizes.MethodsSix biological replicates were analyzed via microscopy for size. Total protein content was assessed via the bicinchoninic acid assay (BCA assay). Five separate biological replicate spheroids were analyzed via mass spectrometry in technical duplicate. An ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) system coupled with an LTQ Orbitrap Velos was used for peptide separation, analysis, and identification.ResultsThe average diameter of six replicate HCT 116 spheroids was 940 ± 30 µm and the average total protein amount was determined to be 39 ± 4 µg. At least 1300 protein groups were identified in each single LC/MS/MS run with 10% of the material from each single spheroid loaded. Database search results showed variation between spheroid protein group identifications. Pearson correlations show that the disparity in identifications is due to random variations in spectra and protocol.ConclusionsWe detected more than 1350 protein groups in each replicate HCT 116 spheroid. While some variation was detected between replicates, differences in the number of protein groups identified were determined to be the result of random variations in mass spectra acquisition.

Radiation-Induced Senescence Reprograms Secretory and Metabolic Pathways in Colon Cancer HCT-116 Cells.

Project description:Understanding the global metabolic changes during the senescence of tumor cells can have implications for developing effective anti-cancer treatment strategies. Ionizing radiation (IR) was used to induce senescence in a human colon cancer cell line HCT-116 to examine secretome and metabolome profiles. Control proliferating and senescent cancer cells (SCC) exhibited distinct morphological differences and expression of senescent markers. Enhanced secretion of pro-inflammatory chemokines and IL-1, anti-inflammatory IL-27, and TGF-β1 was observed in SCC. Significantly reduced levels of VEGF-A indicated anti-angiogenic activities of SCC. Elevated levels of tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases from SCC support the maintenance of the extracellular matrix. Adenylate and guanylate energy charge levels and redox components NAD and NADP and glutathione were maintained at near optimal levels indicating the viability of SCC. Significant accumulation of pyruvate, lactate, and suppression of the TCA cycle in SCC indicated aerobic glycolysis as the predominant energy source for SCC. Levels of several key amino acids decreased significantly, suggesting augmented utilization for protein synthesis and for use as intermediates for energy metabolism in SCC. These observations may provide a better understanding of cellular senescence basic mechanisms in tumor tissues and provide opportunities to improve cancer treatment.

Potential roles of microRNAs in regulating long intergenic noncoding RNAs.

Project description:BackgroundOver 10,000 long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been identified in the human genome. Some have been well characterized and known to participate in various stages of gene regulation. In the post-transcriptional process, another class of well-known small non-coding RNA, or microRNA (miRNA), is very active in inhibiting mRNA. Though similar features between mRNA and lincRNA have been revealed in several recent studies, and a few isolated miRNA-lincRNA relationships have been observed. Despite these advances, the comprehensive miRNA regulation pattern of lincRNA has not been clarified.MethodsIn this study, we investigated the possible interaction between the two classes of non-coding RNAs. Instead of using the existing long non-coding database, we employed an ab initio method to annotate lincRNAs expressed in a group of normal breast tissues and breast tumors.ResultsApproximately 90 lincRNAs show strong reverse expression correlation with miRNAs, which have at least one predicted target site presented. These target sites are statistically more conserved than their neighboring genetic regions and other predicted target sites. Several miRNAs that target to these lincRNAs are known to play an essential role in breast cancer.ConclusionSimilar to inhibiting mRNAs, miRNAs show potential in promoting the degeneration of lincRNAs. Breast-cancer-related miRNAs may influence their target lincRNAs resulting in differential expression in normal and malignant breast tissues. This implies the miRNA regulation of lincRNAs may be involved in the regulatory process in tumor cells.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence of colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) has been increasing over time. Although ferroptosis and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been extensively reported to participate in the tumorigenesis and development of COAD, few studies have investigated the role of ferroptosis-related lncRNAs in the prognosis of COAD.MethodsGene-sequencing and clinical data for COAD were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. The coexpression network was constructed using known ferroptosis-related genes. Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were used to screen ferroptosis-related lncRNAs with prognostic value and to identify a predictive model of COAD. Patients with COAD were divided into low- and high-risk groups according to their risk score. Cases of COAD in the International Cancer Genome Consortium database were included as the testing cohort.ResultsIn total, nine lncRNAs (LINC02381, AC105219.1, AC009283.1, LINC01011, ELFN1-AS1, EIF3J-DT, NKILA, LINC01063, and SNHG16) were considered prognostic factors for COAD. Then, a risk score model was established. The overall survival rate of COAD patients was negatively associated with the risk score. Kaplan-Meier analyses in the original and testing cohorts showed similar results. The expression of the lncRNAs in tissue was consistent with the risk score, and the relationship with tumor mutation burden, immunity, and drug sensitivity presented a marked link between the signature and COAD. A nomogram was established for clinical applications.ConclusionsNine ferroptosis-related lncRNAs and the established signature have a certain predictive value for prognosis of COAD patients and can be used as potential research targets for exploring treatment of COAD.

Proteins that interact with calgranulin B in the human colon cancer cell line HCT-116.

Project description:Calgranulin B is released from immune cells and can be internalized into colon cancer cells to prevent proliferation. The present study aimed to identify proteins that interact with calgranulin B to suppress the proliferation of colon cancer cells, and to obtain information on the underlying anti-tumor mechanism(s) of calgranulin B. Calgranulin B expression was induced in colon cancer cell line HCT-116 by infection with calgranulin B-FLAG expressing lentivirus, and it led to a significant suppression of cell proliferation. Proteins that interacted with calgranulin B were obtained by immunoprecipitation using whole homogenate of lentivirus-infected HCT-116 cells which expressing calgranulin B-FLAG, and identified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry analysis. A total of 454 proteins were identified that potentially interact with calgranulin B, and most identified proteins were associated with RNA processing, post-transcriptional modifications and the EIF2 signaling pathway. Direct interaction of calgranulin B with flotillin-1, dynein intermediate chain 1, and CD59 glycoprotein has been confirmed, and the molecules N-myc proto-oncogene protein, rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR, and myc proto-oncogene protein were shown to regulate calgranulin B-interacting proteins. Our results provide new insight and useful information to explain the possible mechanism(s) underlying the role of calgranulin B as an anti-tumor effector in colon cancer cells.

Discovery and optimization of cardenolides inhibiting HSF1 activation in human colon HCT-116 cancer cells.

Project description:Combinational anticancer therapy demonstrates increased efficiency, as it targets different cell-survival mechanisms and allows the decrease of drug dosages that are often toxic to normal cells. Inhibitors of the heat shock response (HSR) are known to reduce the efficiency of proteostasis mechanisms in many cancerous cells, and therefore, may be employed as anti-tumor drug complements. However, the application of HSR inhibitors is limited by their cytotoxicity, and we suggested that milder inhibitors may be employed to sensitize cancer cells to a certain drug. We used a heat-shock element-luciferase reporter system and discovered a compound, CL-43, that inhibited the levels of heat shock proteins 40, 70 (Hsp70), and 90 kDa in HCT-116 cells and was not toxic for cells of several lines, including normal human fibroblasts. Consequently, CL-43 was found to reduce colony formation and motility of HCT-116 in the appropriate assays suggesting its possible application in the exploration of biology of metastasizing tumors. Importantly, CL-43 elevated the growth-inhibitory and cytotoxic activity of etoposide, cisplatin, and doxorubicin suggesting that the pro-drug has broad prospect for application in a variety of anti-tumor therapy schedules.

Long noncoding RNA PCAT6 inhibits colon cancer cell apoptosis by regulating anti-apoptotic protein ARC expression via EZH2.

Project description:Prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcript 6 (PCAT6) is a long intergenic noncoding RNA that is involved in the progression of prostate and lung cancer, acting as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in nonsmall cell lung cancer. However, little is known about PCAT6 expression and its clinical significance in colon cancer. Here, we aimed to investigate the clinical significance of PCAT6 in colon cancer and its underlying mechanism. The expression of PCAT6 was analyzed in colon cancer tissues using public databases, and a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments was performed to investigate the biological functions of PCAT6 in colon cancer cells and the underlying mechanisms. Our results demonstrated that PCAT6 was upregulated in colon cancer tissues compared with that in noncancerous tissues, correlating with poorer clinical stages and a worse survival status. In vitro and in vivo experiments illustrated PCAT6 promoted cell growth and inhibited cell apoptosis in colon cancer. Mechanistically, PCAT6 enhanced the coenrichment of EZH2 and H3K4me3 at the apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) genomic region, promoting the transcriptional activity of ARC. Our data highlighted that PCAT6 acts as a key activator of ARC expression by forming a complex with EZH2, inhibiting cell apoptosis and contributing to colon cancer progression. These findings elucidated that PCAT6 may be a novel prognostic predictor and therapeutic target of colon cancer.

GSTO1 confers drug resistance in HCT‑116 colon cancer cells through an interaction with TNFαIP3/A20.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to decipher the mechanism of glutathione‑S‑transferase Ω‑1 (GSTO1)‑induced drug resistance in colon cancer cells. Cisplatin is used widely as a therapeutic drug in cancer, but colon cancer is the most susceptible to acquired drug resistance. Autophagy is recognized as one of the contributors to drug resistance in cancers. Phase II detoxifying enzymes, such as GSTO1, serve important roles in autophagy‑apoptosis cross talk. The present study revealed a novel interaction between GSTO1 and TNFα‑induced protein 3/zinc‑finger protein A20 (TNFαIP3/A20) as a prime target for cisplatin sensitization in drug‑resistant cells. GSTO1 and ATP‑binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) were both expressed at higher levels in multidrug‑resistant (MDR) HCT‑116 cells compared with the wild‑type (WT) HCT‑116 cells, suggesting they may serve vital roles in multidrug resistance. MDR cells showed autophagy induction, which is dependent on calcium signaling‑dependent endoplasmic stress. In WT cells, the mitochondria‑dependent pathway leads to apoptosis, which was not observed in MDR cells. The MDR conditions were mimicked by transfecting WT cells with the GSTO1‑activation CRISPR plasmid, which induced autophagy. Similarly, MDR cells with GSTO1‑knockdown (KD) CRISPR/Cas9 transfection showed reduced autophagy with increased apoptosis. These data revealed a potentially important role of GSTO1 in drug resistance. A GSTO1 pull‑down assay detected TNFαIP3/A20 as a binding partner in MDR cells. The data suggested that the expression of TNFαIP3/A20 may be dependent on GSTO1 expression in MDR cells. Targeting either GSTO1 or TNFαIP3/A20 by CRISPR/Cas9 sensitized the MDR cells to cisplatin. GSTO1 and TNFαIP3/A20 dual‑KD cells were more sensitive to cisplatin compared with single‑gene KD cells. These data highlight the importance of the GSTO1‑TNFαIP3/A20 interaction during drug resistance.

Decoding Noncoding RNAs: Role of MicroRNAs and Long Noncoding RNAs in Ocular Neovascularization.

Project description:Ocular neovascularization is a pathological sequel of multiple eye diseases. Based on the anatomical site into which the abnormal neovessels grow, ocular neovascularization can be categorized into corneal neovascularization, choroidal neovascularization, and retinal neovascularization. Each category is intractable, and may lead to blindness if not appropriately treated. However, the current therapeutic modalities, including laser photocoagulation, vitrectomy surgery, and anti-VEGF drugs, raise concerns due to limited efficacy, damage on retinal parenchyma and vasculature, and the patients' unresponsiveness to the treatments. Therefore, the in-depth study on pathogenesis of and the search for novel therapeutic targets to the ocular neovascularization are needed. During the last 10 years or so, a large number of literatures have emerged indicating a critical role of noncoding RNAs, particularly microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), in the pathogenesis and regulation of the ocular neovascularization. This review summarizes the current understanding of the biosynthesis and functions of the miRNAs and lncRNAs, the regulation of the miRNAs and lncRNAs in neovascular eye diseases, as well as the roles of these noncoding RNAs in the disease models of ocular neovascularization, in the hope that it could provide clues for the pathogenesis of and molecular targets to the ocular neovascularization.
