Project description:Resistance to chemotherapy is one of the main causes of mortality in late-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) with dismal prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Therefore, there is an urgent need to exploit new therapeutic targets to improve current clinical outcome. In this study, we identified pacritinib, a late stage clinical drug targeting IRAK1, as a sensitizer to resistance of paclitaxel in NPC. Through analysis of both chemoresistant cellular models and clinical samples of relapse and metastasis, we have shown that aberrant IRAK1-S100A9 deregulation is correlated with chemoresistance and prognosticates poor clinical outcome. Further functional studies demonstrated that genetic and pharmacological inhibition of IRAK1-S100A9 axis overcomes the resistance to paclitaxel and combination of pacritinib with paclitaxel exhibited superior anti-tumor effect in both in vivo and in vitro models.

Project description:Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) result from expansion of defective hematopoietic stem/progenitor clones. There is an urgent need to develop targeted therapies capable of eliminating the defective MDS clones. We identified that IRAK1, an immune modulating kinase, is overexpressed and hyperactivated in MDS. MDS-propagating clones treated with a small-molecule IRAK1 inhibitor (IRAK1/4-Inh) exhibited impaired expansion and increased apoptosis, which coincided with TRAF6/NF-M-NM-:B inhibition. Suppression of IRAK1, either by RNAi or with IRAK1/4-Inh, is selectively detrimental to MDS clones as normal CD34+ cells are preserved. Based on conclusions derived from an integrative gene expression analysis, we combined IRAK1 and BCL2 inhibitors and found that co-treatment collaboratively and selectively eliminated MDS clones. In summary, these findings implicate IRAK1 as a drugable target in MDS. MDSL cells were transduced with lentivirus encoding shRNA targeting human IRAK1 and a negative control (pLKO) for 2.5 days. GFP positive cells were sorted for RNA extraction, labeling, and hybridization. A total of four samples were included, and two groups are assigned. Two replicates are for each group. Comparison comprises mRNA expression profile of TRAF6 knockdown (shT6) v.s. control vector (pLKO). Additionally, MDSL cells were treated with either DMSO or IRAK inhibitor for 24hrs. Cells were subjected to RNA extraction, labeling, and hybridization. A total of four samples were included, and two groups are assigned.

Project description:Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial tumor with a high metastatic feature and invasive nature. The survival rate of NPC patients is still very low due to the high incidence of distant metastasis. Platelets are versatile blood cells and mediate the distant metastasis of tumor cells via the blood circulation. However, the role and underlying mechanism of platelets responsible for the NPC cells hematogenous metastasis are not well understood. In our study, we found that platelet-derived EVs of NPC patients (P-EVs) induced the metastasis and mesenchymal-epithelial transition process in NPC cells. To shed light on the mechanism underlying P-EVs-induced NPC metastasis and MET process, we performed high throughput RNA-Seq analyses to reveal the differentially expressed genes in NPC cells treated with or without P-EVs. We observed that there was a significant overlap in the expression of integrins that were altered in 6-10B and 5-8F upon P-EVs treatment. Of these, integrin β3 (ITGB3) exhibited the most obvious upregulation.

Project description:Increasing evidence has demonstrated a significant role for long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in tumorigenesis. However, their functions in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) metastasis remain largely unknown. In this study, a model compared high and low metastatic NPC cell lines (5-8F vs. 6-10B and S18 vs. S26)was constructed to determine the expression profile of lncRNAs using the microarray analysis, and we found 167 lncRNAs and 209 mRNAs were differentially expressed. Validationof 26 significantly dysregulated lncRNAs by qRT-PCR showed the expression patterns of 22 lncRNAs were in accordance with the microarray data. Furthermore, the expression level of ENST00000470135, which was the most upregulated lncRNA in high metastatic cell lines, was significantly higher in NPC cell lines and tissues with lymph node metastasis（LNM）and knocking down ENST00000470135 suppressed the migration, invasion and proliferation of NPC cells in vitro. In conclusion, our study revealed expression patterns of lncRNAs in NPC metastasis. The dysregulated lncRNAs may act as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for NPC.

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) engage in various cellular essential processes including differentiation, growth and migration. However, the master TF involved in distant metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remains largely unclear. Here we show that KLF5 regulates actin remodeling to enhance NPC metastasis. We analyzed the msVIPER algorithm-generated transcriptional regulatory networks and identified KLF5 as a master TF of metastatic NPC linked to poor clinical outcomes. KLF5 regulates actin remodeling and lamellipodia formation to promote the metastasis of NPC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, KLF5 preferentially occupies distal enhancer regions of ACTN4 to activate its transcription, whereby decoding the informative DNA sequences. ACTN4, extensively localized within actin cytoskeleton, facilitates dense and branched actin networks and lamellipodia formation at the cell leading edge, empowering cells to migrate faster. Collectively, our findings reveal that KLF5 controls robust transcription program of ACTN4 to modulate actin remodeling and augment cell motility which enhances NPC metastasis, and provide new potential biomarkers and therapeutic interventions for NPC.

Project description:Interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) is an important component of the IL-1R and TLR signaling pathways, which influence Th cell differentiation. Here, we show that IRAK1 promotes Th17 development by mediating IL-1β induced upregulation of IL-23R and subsequent STAT3 phosphorylation, thus enabling sustained IL-17 production. Moreover, we show that IRAK1 signaling fosters Th1 differentiation by mediating T-bet induction and counteracts Treg generation. Cotransfer experiments revealed that Irak1-deficient CD4+ T cells have a cell-intrinsic defect in generating Th1 and Th17 cells under inflammatory conditions in spleen, mesenteric lymph nodes and colon tissue. Furthermore, IRAK1 expression in T cells was shown to be essential for T cell accumulation in the inflamed intestine and mLNs. Transcriptome analysis ex vivo revealed that IRAK1 promotes T cell activation and induction of gut-homing molecules in a cell-intrinsic manner. Accordingly, Irak1-deficient T cells failed to upregulate surface expression of α4β7 integrin after transfer into Rag1-/- mice and their ability to induce colitis was greatly impaired. Lack of IRAK1 in recipient mice provided additional protection from colitis. Therefore, IRAK1 plays an important role in intestinal inflammation by mediating T cell activation, differentiation and their accumulation in the gut. Thus, IRAK1 is a promising novel target for therapy of inflammatory bowel diseases.

Project description:Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is known for its high metastatic potential. From genomic expression profiles comparing clones derived from the NPC cell line CNE-2, serglycin (SRGN) was identified as one of the most up-regulated genes in the high-metastasis clone. Serglycin protein was secreted by the high-metastasis clone, but not by any of the low-metastasis clones. Suppression of serglycin by shRNA diminished serglycin secretion and subsequently inhibited the migration and invasion of high-metastasis clone, and also reduced its metastasis rate in vivo. Overexpression of serglycin in low-metastasis cells resulted in an increased metastasis rate in vivo. Moreover, secreted serglycin promoted cellular motility in the wild-type low-metastasis cells. Interestingly, suppression of serglycin reduced the protein level of vimentin but did not influence the level of E-cadherin in high-metastasis clone. Proliferation was not influenced by serglycin in both high-and low-metastasis clones. Clinically, serglycin expression was significantly elevated in liver metastases from NPC relative to its expression in primary tumors. The prognostic value of serglycin was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining of tissue microarrays of NPC tissues from 263 patients, followed by multivariate analyses. A high level of serglycin expression in primary NPC was found to be an independent unfavorable indicator for distant-metastasis-free survival and disease-free survival. In summary, serglycin regulates NPC metastasis via autocrine and paracrine means without influencing proliferation, and it serves as a prognostic indicator of metastasis-free survival and disease-free survival for NPC patients.

Keywords: Gene Expression experiment High-metastasis clone (S18) and low-metastasis clones (S22 and S26) together with their parental line CNE-2 were subjected for gene expression profiling to identify the genes highly expressed in high-metastasis clone. To explore the molecular mechanism(s) underlying this important biological behavior, we performed genomic expression profiling of these four cell lines from in vitro cultured cells, as well as in vivo xenograft tumors generated in nude mice by subcutaneous injection of the cells into the BALB/c (nu/nu) female mice. Briefly, 1 × 10^5 cells were subcutaneously injected into the left flank of a nude mouse, and the tumors were collected when their volume was 150-250 mm^3.
