MiRNA Expression in 4 mouse Hepatocellular Carcinoma cells with different lymphatic metastasis potentials

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to screen for microRNAs related to lymphatic metastasis in mouse Hepatocellular Carcinoma cells, named H22, Hepa1-6, Hca-P, and Hca-F. The lymphatic metastasis abilities of the cell lines are different.

Project description:DHX15 is an ATP-dependent RNA helicase involved in pre-mRNA splicing. We have recently reported that DHX15 is a downstream substrate for Akt1, which plays a significant role in vascular biology. Therefore, we aimed to explore the regulatory function of DHX15 over the vasculature, and the endothelial cell biology in different contexts: development, metabolism, ischemia and tumor growth. Methods: Deficient DHX15 mice and zebrafish were generated using transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN) and Crispr/cas9 gene edition. Lymphatic functionality was evaluated by lymphangiography and magnetic resonance imaging. Mouse-induced tumor and metastasis model were generated by injection of syngeneic LLC1 tumor cells. DHX15 gene silencing in mouse liver endothelial cells (LEC) was performed by the lentiviral transduction of shRNA (Dharmacon). The changes in the transcriptome and the proteome resulting from the shRNA transduction were investigated by RNAseq and mass spectrometry, respectively. Results: Homozygous DHX15 gene deficiency was lethal in mouse and zebrafish embryos. DHX15-/- zebrafish also showed an undeveloped parachordal line, which leads to the formation of lymphatic structures in the trunk during the development. DHX15+/- mice and zebrafish were viable, although DHX15+/- gene deficiency triggered lower vascular network density and impaired lymphatic function postnatally in mice. Whole transcriptome and proteome analysis of DHX15 silenced LEC revealed differential expression of enzymes involved in the glycolysis and the gluconeogenesis pathways. The functional validation of these results demonstrated an uncoupling of the glycolysis with the oxidation of pyruvate into the mitochondria and lower activity of the Complex I in the mitochondrial membrane, resulting in lower cellular ATP production. Noteworthy, heterozygous DHX15 deficiency partially inhibited primary tumor growth and reduced lung metastasis after injection of syngeneic LLC1 tumor cells, compared to wild-type mice
