Effect of the silencing of WT1 expression on HCC transcriptome

ABSTRACT: The Wilms´ tumor 1 gene (WT1) encodes a transcription factor involved in cell growth and development. As we previously reported WT1 expression is hardly detectable in normal hepatic tissue but is induced in liver cirrhosis. Although WT1 has been found to be overexpressed in a number of malignancies, the role of WT1 in hepatocarcinogenesis has not been clarified. We found that WT1 is expressed in several human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines including PLC/PRF/5 and HepG2, and in HCC tumor tissue in 42% of patients. WT1 small interfering RNAs did not affect proliferation rate of HCC cells but abrogated their resistance to anoikis. Transcriptome analysis of PLC/PRF/5 cells after WT1 knockdown demonstrated upregulation of 251 genes and downregulation of 321. Ninety per cent of the former corresponded to metabolic genes mostly those characterizing the mature hepatocyte phenotype. On the contrary, genes that decreased upon WT1 inhibition were mainly related to defense against apoptosis, cell cycle and tumor progression. In agreement with these findings WT1 expression increased the resistance of liver tumor cells to doxorubicin, a compound used to treat HCC. Interestingly, doxorubicin strongly enhanced WT1 expression in both HCC cells and normal human hepatocytes. Among different chemotherapeutics, induction of WT1 transcription was restricted to topoisomerase 2 inhibitors. When WT1 expression was prohibited doxorubicin caused a marked increase in caspase-3 activation. In conclusion, WT1 is expressed in a substantial proportion of HCC contributing to tumor progression and resistance to chemotherapy, suggesting that WT1 may be an important target for HCC treatment.

LncRNA regulated by hnRNPAB in HCC cell lines

Project description:To reveal the HNRNPAB-regulated lncRNAs, we performed microarray analyses to screen differential lncRNAs in HCC cells after stable overexpression or knockdown of HNRNPAB. MHCC97H and HCCLM3 (HCC cell lines with high-metastatic potentials), PLC/PRF/5 and HepG2 (HCC cell lines with low-metastatic potentials) were used in this study. HepG2-control, HepG2-hnRNPAB, PLC/PRF/5-control, PLC/PRF/5-hnRNPAB, MHCC97H-control, MHCC97H-sh-hnRNPAB, HCCLM3-control, HCCLM3-sh-hnRNPAB were perpared with hU6-MCS-CBh-gcGFP-IRES-puromycin-shRNA-HNRNPAB/mock lentiviral and Ubi-MCS-SV40-EGFP-IRES-puromycin-HNRNPAB/mock cDNA lentiviral,respectively, each performed in triplicate.

Project description:To investigate functional transcripts in metastatic HCC, we performed high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of tumors from 3 metastatic HCC and 3 non-metastatic HCC. And we performed RIP-seq human PLC/PRF/5 cells to investigate the HNRNPD binding transcripts. To investigate function of circLARP1B on AMPK pathway, we performed high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of WT (DMSO or Compound C) and circLARP1B-Def (DMSO) PLC/PRF/5 cells.

Hepatic stellate cells mediates transcription of TNFSF14 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells via H2S/CSE-JNK/JunB signaling pathway

Project description:Purpose: Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) and Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) both play important roles in Hepatocellar carcinoma (HCC). Whereas, in the microenvironment of HCC, whether HSC participates in regulating the biological process of HCC cells by releasing H2S remains elusive. In this study, we investigate how activated HSC influence HCC fate. Methods: The effects of LX-2 and H2S on biological functions of HCC cells were analyzed with Flow cytometry and CCK-8. RNA-sequencing, Western blotting, Quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR), siRNA, immunofluorescence and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were carried out to examine the effect of H2S on JNK/JunB-TNFSF14 (tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14) signaling pathway. Specimens from HCC patients were analyzed by using RT-qPCR and Western blotting assays for evaluating the expression of TNFSF14. Statistical analysis was used to analyze the correlation between TNFSF14 expression and clinical data of HCC patients. Results: LX-2 cells is able to induce HepG2 and PLC/PRF/5 cells apoptosis by releasing H2S. RNA- sequencing results showed that TNFSF14 gene was changed in both LX-2 and NaHS group. NaHS dosage and time-dependently up-regulated TNFSF14 mRNA and protein expression in both HepG2 and PLC/PRF/5 cells. NaHS treated in HCC cells led to JNK/JunB signaling pathway activating and greater binding of JunB to its responsive elements on TNFSF14 promoter. Impairment of TNFSF14 induction alleviated LX-2 and NaHS induced apoptosis of HepG2 and PLC/PRF/5 cells. Furthermore, mRNA and protein expressions of TNFSF14 in HCC tissues was lower than in the adjacent tissue. HCC patients with low expression of TNFSF14 have higher malignant degree and poor prognosis. Conclusions: Demonstration of the involvement of HSC-derived H2S in JNK/JunB mediated expression of TNFSF14 gene strongly indicates H2S palys an important role in the regulation of HCC apoptosis.

Establishment of Primary Liver Cancer Organoids and Application on Sorafenib Resistance

Project description:Current in vitro models of primary liver cancer fail to recapitulate the key characteristics of original cancer. We construct the long-term organoids culture from tumor tissue of primary liver cancer (PLC) patients with varieties of subtypes. PLC organoids retain the histopathological features of originating tumor. Organoids transplantation proved that the tumorogenic potential and histological characteristics of PLC organoids are well preserved in vivo. PLC organoids are amenable for preclinical drug screening test and identification of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor compound as a potential therapeutic treatment for PLC. Besides, we also establish sorafenib-resistant hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) organoids to clarify the mechanisms that drive resistance. In conclusion, PLC organoids models provide a platform for drug development for PLC and theoretical basis for HCC resistance.

Delineation of EZH2 oncogenic functions in hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:The goal of this study was to delineate the important EZH2 direct target genes that mediate the oncogenic properties of EZH2 in HCC. The EZH2 direct target genes in two HCC cell lines were identified by chromatin immunoprecipitation microarray (ChIP-chip) analysis and later confirmed by independent ChIP-PCR. The functions of the target genes were further examined. Two human HCC cell lines, Huh7 and PLC/PRF/5 (PLC5), were grown in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. ChIP assays were performed using anti-EZH2 antibody. The immunoprecipitated and input DNA were used to probe the Agilent human ChIP-chip arrays.
