Effect of hypoxia‑HIF‑1α‑periostin axis in thyroid cancer.

ABSTRACT: The incidence of thyroid carcinoma (TC) has exhibited a rapid increase in recent years. A proportion of TCs exhibit aggressive behavior. The present study aimed to investigate the potential role of hypoxia‑hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit α (HIF‑1α)‑periostin axis in the progression of TC. The upregulation of periostin and HIF‑1α expression levels was detected in 95 clinical TC tissues as compared with normal thyroid tissues. Hypoxia promoted the viability and invasion of TC cells and this effect was inhibited by the downregulation of periostin. Hypoxia also induced the Warburg effect in TC and this effect was inhibited by the silencing of periostin. Further investigations revealed that hypoxia activated HIF‑1α, which in turn regulated the expression of periostin. Immunoprecipitation and dual luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that HIF‑1α upregulated the expression of periostin by binding to the promoter of periostin. On the whole, these findings suggest the existence of a hypoxia‑HIF‑1α‑periostin axis in TC and indicate the role of this axis in the progression of TC.

Project description:BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea is associated with increased lung cancer incidence and mortality. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are characterized by their self-renewing ability, which contributes to metastasis, recurrence, and drug resistance. ATPase family AAA domain-containing protein 2 (ATAD2) induces malignancy in different types of tumors. However, a correlation between ATAD2 expression and CSCs in lung cancer has not yet been reported.MethodsThe relative messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of ATAD2, CD44, CD133, and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α were determined using reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. ATAD2 protein levels were determined using Western blotting. Cell counting kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), and colony formation assays were performed to analyze the proliferation of lung cancer cells. Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed to evaluate cell migration and invasion, respectively. Tumor sphere formation analysis was used to determine tumor spheroid capacity. The link between ATAD2 and HIF-1α was verified using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to assess mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production. Flow cytometry analysis was conducted to determine the CD133 and CD44 positive cell ratio.ResultsWe evaluated the relative expression of ATAD2 in four lung cancer cell lines (A549, SPC-A1, H460, and H1299 cells) and found increased mRNA and protein levels of ATAD2 in lung cancer samples. ATAD2 overexpression was a poor prognostic factor for lung cancer patients. Loss of ATAD2 reduced lung cancer cell viability and proliferation. Additionally, ATAD2 knockdown repressed lung cancer cell migration, invasion, stem-cell-like properties, and mtROS production. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH)-induced HIF-1α expression significantly activated ATAD2 during lung cancer progression.ConclusionsThis study found that CIH induced HIF-1α expression, which acts as a transcriptional activator of ATAD2. The present study also suggests a novel mechanism by which the integrity of CIH-triggered HIF-1α/ATAD2 may determine lung cancer aggressiveness via the interplay of mtROS and stemness in lung cancer cells.

Project description:Background Few reports have addressed the mechanism by which microRNA miR-10b-5p regulates post-myocardial infarction (post-MI) cardiomyocyte apoptosis under hypoxic conditions. Methods and Results C57BL/6 mice underwent surgical ligation of the left anterior descending artery to create an MI or ischemia/reperfusion animal model. The expression of miR-10b-5p, PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog), and HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor 1α) was detected in infarct border zone tissues at various time points. After precordial injections of the negative control or miR-10b-5p, overexpression lentiviruses were made in the areas surrounding the MI sites at 1 week, and myocardial infarct size, cardiac function, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis were examined. A miR-10b-5p mimic was transfected into primary mouse cardiomyocytes to analyze its effects on cardiomyocyte apoptosis and PTEN expression. Meanwhile, PTEN as a target of miR-10b-5p was verified via luciferase reporter gene assays. Cotransfection of miR-10b-5 and PTEN verified the relationship between miR-10b-5 and PTEN. Under hypoxic stress, the expression of HIF-1α and miR-10b-5p was examined. The results showed that miR-10b-5p expression was markedly reduced in the infarct border zone. Overexpression of miR-10b-5p in the murine model of MI significantly reduced MI size, improved cardiac function, and inhibited apoptosis. Overexpression of miR-10b-5p in vitro antagonized hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and specifically inhibited the expression of the apoptosis-related gene PTEN, but overexpression of PTEN weakened these effects. We also found that hypoxia-induced accumulation of HIF-1α resulted in decreased expression of miR-10b-5p. Interfering with the activation of the HIF-1α signaling pathway promoted Pri-miR-10b and miR-10b-5p expression and inhibited PTEN expression. Conclusions MicroRNA miR-10b-5p antagonizes hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, indicating that miR-10b-5p may serve as a potential future clinical target for the treatment of MI.
