LincRNA01703 Facilitates CD81⁺ Exosome Secretion to Inhibit Lung Adenocarcinoma Metastasis via the Rab27a/SYTL1/CD81 Complex.

ABSTRACT: Metastasis, a major cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, frequently occurs early in the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, the precise molecular mechanisms governing the aggressive metastatic behavior of LUAD remain incompletely understood. In this study, we present compelling evidence indicating that the long noncoding RNA linc01703 is significantly downregulated in metastatic lung cancer cells. Intriguingly, in vivo experiments revealed that Linc01703 exerted a profound inhibitory effect on lung cancer metastasis without discernible impact on the in vitro proliferation or invasion capacities of LUAD cells. Mechanistically, Linc01703 enhanced the interaction between Rab27a, SYTL1, and CD81, consequently promoting the secretion of CD81⁺ exosomes. These exosomes, in turn, suppressed the infiltration of immune cells within the tumor microenvironment, thereby impeding LUAD metastasis. Importantly, our analysis of lung cancer tissues revealed a correlation between reduced CD81 expression and an unfavorable patient prognosis. Collectively, our findings suggest that Linc01703 functions as a metastasis suppressor by facilitating the secretion of CD81⁺ exosomes through the formation of the Rab27a/SYTL1/CD81 complex.

Project description:Exosomes are small membrane-bound vesicles which are intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) secreted to the extracellular space after multivesicular bodies (MVBs) fuse with the plasma membrane. Although it is known that exosomes play a multitude of roles during viral infection, the mechanism that regulates their secretion during viral infection is unknown. Here, we found that enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) infection increased exosome secretion both in vivo and in vitro. Importantly, the expression of nonstructural protein 3A was sufficient to promote exosome secretion, while a mutation affecting the amino acid 18 position abrogated this effect, without changing the size of exosomes in vivo or in vitro. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed that 3A decreases the number of MVBs and ILVs in vivo and in vitro, which suggested 3A may boost the fusion between MVBs and the plasma membrane. Furthermore, we demonstrated that an interaction between 3A and the small GTPase protein, Rab27a, protected Rab27a from ubiquitination, resulted in increasing exosome release. Data indicated a novel mechanism by which EV-A71 3A modifies exosome secretion during viral infection. IMPORTANCE Research has shown that viral infection impacts exosome secretion, but its regulation mechanisms remain poorly understood. Nonstructural protein 3A of EV-A71 interacts with many host factors and is involved in the remodeling of cellular membranes. In this investigation, we applied exogenous expression of 3A protein for exploring its regulation on exosome secretion and utilized immunoprecipitation combined with proteomics approaches to identify 3A-interacting factors. Our results demonstrate that 3A protein upregulates the release of the exosomes and that the 3A mutant strain of EV-A71 induce less exosome release compared with the EV-A71 wild type. Viral 3A protein interacts with the host factor Rab27a to prevent it from being ubiquitinated, which in turn improves exosome secretion both in vitro and in vivo. EV-A71 3A protein is a novel viral factor in the control of exosome production.

Project description:Tumor-initiating cells with reprogramming plasticity and/or de-differentiation attributes have been thought to initiate primary tumor development as well as to regenerate secondary tumors in metastatic organs; however, the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. We previously found that breast tumor-initiating cell marker, CD44, directs multicellular aggregation and cluster formation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), which further enhance stemness and survival of such cells, enabling metastatic colonization to the lungs. To further elucidate the molecular network underlying CTC cluster formation, we performed global proteomic profiling and discovered that the tetraspanin protein CD81, which is normally enriched in exosomes (small extracellular vesicles), is a new driver of cancer initiation and metastasis as a facilitator and target of CD44. Loss of CD81 compromises tumorigenicity and mammosphere formation of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. Assisted by machine learning-based algorithms and mutagenesis approach, we found that CD81 interacts with CD44 on the cellular membrane through their extracellular regions. Notably, genetic knockout of CD44 or CD81 results in loss of both CD81 and CD44 in secreted exosomes, a state which abolishes exosome-induced self-renewal of recipient cells, such as mammosphere formation. In addition, RNA sequencing analysis showed that CD81 knockdown up-regulates expression of a cell differentiation marker, SEMA7a, whose down-regulation partially rescues mammosphere formation inhibition by CD81 depletion. Clinically, CD81 expression was observed in >80% of CTCs and specifically enriched and co-expressed along with CD44 in clustered CTCs of breast cancer patients. Mimicing the phenotypes of CD44 deficiency, loss of CD81 also inhibited tumor cell aggregation and lung metastasis of TNBC in both human and mouse tumor models, supporting the clinical significance of CD81 in association with patient outcomes. Our study highlights a new driving role of CD81 in cancer exosome-induced stemness, clustered CTCs, and metastasis initiation of TNBC, reported for the first time to our knowledge.
