XPO1-Mediated EIF1AX Cytoplasmic Relocation Promotes Tumor Migration and Invasion in Endometrial Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A, X-linked (EIF1AX), has been implicated in the pathogenesis of some cancers. However, the role of EIF1AX in endometrial carcinoma (EC) remains unknown. We investigated the EIF1AX expression in EC patients and assessed its tumorigenesis-associated function and nucleocytoplasmic transport mechanism in vitro and in vivo. The results indicated that the cytoplasmic EIF1AX expression showed a gradual increase when going from endometrium normal tissue, simple endometrial hyperplasia, complex endometrial hyperplasia, and endometrial atypical hyperplasia to EC, while vice versa for the nuclear EIF1AX expression. In addition, the cytoplasmic EIF1AX expression was positively correlated with histologic type, high International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) grade, advanced FIGO stage, deeper infiltration, high Ki67 index, and shorter recurrence-free survival in EC patients. In vitro, short hairpin RNA-mediated EIF1AX depletion or SV40NLS-mediated EIF1AX import into the nucleus in multiple human EC cells potently suppressed cell migration and invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and lung metastasis. Moreover, exportin 1 induced the transport of EIF1AX from the nucleus to the cytoplasm that could be inhibited by leptomycin B treatment or the mutation in the EIF1AX location sequence. These results demonstrate that cytoplasmic EIF1AX may play a key role in the incidence and promotion of EC, and thus, targeting EIF1AX or its nucleocytoplasmic transport process may offer an effective new therapeutic approach to EC.

Project description:The authors' previous study revealed that the serum levels of microRNA (miR)-663b are significantly increased in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), and are associated with NPC progression and poor prognosis. However, the molecular mechanism of underlying NPC growth and metastasis remains unclear. In the present study, quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analyses were performed to examine changes to mRNA and protein expression, respectively. MTT, wound healing and Transwell assays were used to examine cell proliferation, migration and invasion, respectively. Luciferase reporter gene assays were performed to identify target genes of miR-663b. It was demonstrated that miR-663b was significantly upregulated in NPC tissue compared with non-tumor nasopharyngeal epithelial tissue samples. Furthermore, miR-663b expression gradually increased with advancing stages of NPC, with the highest expression being observed in the latest stage IV. The increased expression of miR-663b was associated with advanced clinical stage and lymph node metastasis. In addition, miR-663b expression was increased in NPC cell lines compared with normal nasopharyngeal epithelial NP69 cells. Knockdown of miR-663b resulted in a significant reduction in the proliferation, migration and invasion of NPC CNE1 cells. Tumor suppressor candidate 2 (TUSC2) was identified as a novel target gene of miR-663b. It was further demonstrated that TUSC2 was significantly downregulated in NPC tissue samples and cell lines. miR-663b negatively regulated the expression of TUSC2 at the post-transcriptional level in CNE1 cells. Additionally, inhibition of TUSC2 expression attenuated the suppressive effects of miR-663b downregulation on the proliferation, migration and invasion of CNE1 cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that miR-663b, which is upregulated in NPC, promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of NPC cells, partially through the inhibition of TUSC2 expression. Therefore, it is suggested that miR-663b is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of patients with NPC.
