RNA sequencing in ovarian cancer cell line HEYA8 in terms of ECM1 silencing and reintroduction of ECM1 subtypes ECM1a and ECM1b

ABSTRACT: Extracellular Matrix Protein-1 (ECM1) promotes tumorigenesis in multiple organs, but the mechanisms associated with the functions and putative receptors of ECM1 subtypes have yet to be systematically clarified. We found in this study that secretory ECM1a functions as an oncoprotein to induce tumorigenesis through binding of the Gly-Pro-Arg (GPR) motif to integrin aXb2 and activation of AKT/FAK/Rho/cytoskeletal signaling. Nonsecretory ECM1b binds to myosin to block myosin phosphorylation, thus preventing cytoskeletal signaling activation and tumorigenesis. Based on RNA sequencing, we further found that the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L-like (hnRNPLL) protein induced by ECM1a favors the alternative mRNA splicing of ECM1a to control ECM1-associated signaling and tumorigenesis. ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 1 (ABCG1) transduces ECM1a-integrin aXb2 interactive signaling to facilitate the phosphorylation of AKT/FAK/Rho/cytoskeletal molecules and to confer cisplatin resistance in cancer cells through upregulation of CD326-mediated cell stemness.

Project description:Impaired drainage of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork (TM) culminating in increased intraocular pressure is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Regulation of aqueous humor drainage through the TM, however, is poorly understood. The role of RhoA GTPase-mediated contractile activity, cell adhesive interactions, and gene expression in regulation of aqueous humor outflow was investigated using adenoviral vector-driven expression of constitutively active RhoA (RhoAV14). Organ cultured anterior segments from porcine eyes expressing RhoAV14 exhibited significant reduction of aqueous humor outflow. Cultured TM cells expressing RhoAV14 revealed strong contractile cell morphology, increased actin stress fibers and focal adhesions, along with increased levels of phosphorylated myosin II, and collagen IV, fibronectin and laminin. cDNA microarray analysis of RNA extracted from RhoAV14 expressing human TM cells revealed a significant increase in the expression of genes encoding extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, cytokines, integrins, cytoskeletal proteins and signaling proteins. Conversely, various ECM proteins stimulated robust increases in phosphorylation of myosin II, paxillin and focal adhesion kinase, and activated Rho GTPase and actin stress fiber formation in TM cells, indicating a potential regulatory feedback interaction between ECM-induced mechanical strain and Rho GTPase-induced isometric tension in TM cells. Collectively, these data demonstrate that sustained activation of Rho GTPase signaling in the aqueous humor outflow pathway increases resistance to aqueous humor outflow through the trabecular pathway by influencing the contractile force, cell adhesive interactions, and the expression of ECM proteins and cytokines in TM cells.
