Mechanistic insights of O-GlcNAcylation that promote progression of cholangiocarcinoma cells via nuclear translocation of NF-?B.

ABSTRACT: O-GlcNAcylation, an O-linked protein glycosylation with a single molecule of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), is reversibly controlled by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and N-acetyl D-glucosaminidase (OGA). Aberrant O-GlcNAcylation contributes an important role in initiation and progression of many human cancers. Elevation of O-GlcNAcylation in tumor tissues and poor prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) patients have been reported. In this study, the role of O-GlcNAcylation in promoting tumor progression was further investigated in CCA cell lines. Suppression of O-GlcNAcylation using small interfering RNAs of OGT (siOGT) significantly reduced cell migration and invasion of CCA cells whereas siOGA treated cells exhibited opposite effects. Manipulating levels of O-GlcNAcylation did affect the nuclear translocation of NF-?B and Akt-phosphorylation together with expression of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs). O-GlcNAcylation and nuclear translocation of NF-?B, the upstream signaling cascade of MMP activation were shown to be important for MMP activation. Immunoprecipitation revealed the elevation of O-GlcNAc-modified NF-?B with increased cellular O-GlcNAcylation. Involvement of O-GlcNAcylation in MMP-mediated migration and invasion of CCA cells was shown to be via O-GlcNAcylation and nuclear translocation of NF-?B. This information indicates the significance of O-GlcNAcylation in controlling the metastatic ability of CCA cells, hence, O-GlcNAcylation and its products may be new targets for treatment of metastatic CCA.

Project description:BackgroundCellular senescence frequently occurs during anti-cancer treatment, and persistent senescent tumor cells (STCs) unfavorably promote tumor progression through paracrine secretion of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have recently emerged as a novel component of the SASP and primarily mediate the tumor-promoting effect of the SASP. Of note, the potential effect of EVs released from STCs on tumor progression remains largely unknown.MethodsWe collected tumor tissues from two cohorts of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients to examine the expression of p16, p21, and SERPINE1 before and after anti-cancer treatment. Cohort 1 included 22 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) who received neoadjuvant therapy before surgical resection. Cohort 2 included 30 patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) who received first-line irinotecan-contained treatment. CCK-8, transwell, wound-healing assay, and tumor xenograft experiments were carried out to determine the impacts of EVs released from STCs on CRC progression in vitro and in vivo. Quantitative proteomic analysis was applied to identify protein cargo inside EVs secreted from STCs. Immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometer identification were utilized to explore the binding partners of SERPINE1. The interaction of SERPINE1 with p65 was verified by co-immunoprecipitation, and their co-localization was confirmed by immunofluorescence.ResultsChemotherapeutic agents and irradiation could potently induce senescence in CRC cells in vitro and in human CRC tissues. The more significant elevation of p16 and p21 expression in patients after anti-cancer treatment displayed shorter disease-free survival (DFS) for LARC or progression-free survival (PFS) for mCRC. We observed that compared to non-STCs, STCs released an increased number of EVs enriched in SERPINE1, which further promoted the progression of recipient cancer cells. Targeting SERPINE1 with a specific inhibitor, tiplaxtinin, markedly attenuated the tumor-promoting effect of STCs-derived EVs. Additionally, the patients with greater increment of SERPINE1 expression after anti-cancer treatment had shorter DFS for LARC or PFS for mCRC. Mechanistically, SERPINE1 bound to p65, promoting its nuclear translocation and subsequently activating the NF-κB signaling pathway.ConclusionsWe provide the in vivo evidence of the clinical prognostic implications of therapy-induced senescence. Our results revealed that STCs were responsible for CRC progression by producing large amounts of EVs enriched in SERPINE1. These findings further confirm the crucial role of therapy-induced senescence in tumor progression and offer a potential therapeutic strategy for CRC treatment.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable hematological malignancy. Although proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulators have significantly improved patient outcomes, some patients respond poorly to treatment and almost all patients will relapse. Mechanisms of proteasome inhibitor resistance in multiple myeloma have not been fully elucidated. ZHX2 is a transcription regulator degraded via proteasome and presents both oncogenic or tumor suppressive effect in different cancers, however, it is still unknown that the role of ZHX2 in myeloma. In this study, we aim to demonstrate the effect and mechanism of ZHX2 on proteasome inhibitor resistance in MM.MethodsGSE24080 gene expression profile datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were analyzed to evaluate the relationship between ZHX2 expression level and survival in MM. Expression of ZHX2 in human MM cell lines at baseline and after bortezomib (BTZ) treatment was determined by Western blotting (WB). The proliferation and apoptosis rate of MM cells treated with BTZ after the knockdown of ZHX2 were analyzed by flow cytometry. Nuclear translocation of NF-κB after the knockdown of ZHX2 was evaluated by WB and immunofluorescence, and the expression of NF-κB target genes was measured by real-time quantitative PCR. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and WB were used to detect the interaction of ZHX2 with NF-κB.ResultsWe found that higher ZHX2 expression was correlated with poorer clinical outcomes of patients. In addition, ZHX2 expression was relatively higher in RPMI-8226 and MM.1S cell lines and the level of ZHX2 protein was upregulated after BTZ treatment. Knockdown of ZHX2 significantly enhanced the sensitivity of MM cells to BTZ, inhibited nuclear translocation of NF-κB, and reduced mRNA expression of NF-κB target genes. It was also revealed that ZHX2 directly binds to NF-κB.ConclusionOur study showed that ZHX2 can promote proteasome inhibitor resistance in MM cells by regulating the nuclear translocation of NF-κB.
