Macrophage migration inhibitory factor - a therapeutic target in gallbladder cancer


ABSTRACT: Poor prognosis in gallbladder cancer is due to late presentation of the disease, lack of reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis and limited targeted therapies. Early diagnostic markers and novel therapeutic targets can significantly improve clinical management of GBC. We carried out quantitative proteomic analysis using a panel of gallbladder cancer cell lines using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ). We identified 3,655 proteins among which 654 were found to be overexpressed and 387 were downregulated in the invasive cell lines (OCUG-1, NOZ and GB-d1) compared to the non-invasive cell line, TGBC24TKB. Among these, macrophage inhibitory factor (MIF) was observed to be >3-fold overexpressed. MIF is a pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine that plays a causative role in multiple diseases including cancer. MIF has been reported to play a central role in tumor cell proliferation and invasion in several cancers. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed our findings showing overexpression of MIF in 21 of 29 gallbladder adenocarcinoma cases. A significant decrease in cell viability, colony forming ability and invasive property of the gallbladder cancer cells was observed upon MIF inhibition using MIF siRNA and MIF antagonists. Our findings support the role of MIF in tumor aggressiveness and suggest its potential application as a therapeutic target for gallbladder cancer.

<h4>Background</h4>Poor prognosis in gallbladder cancer is due to late presentation of the disease, lack of reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis and limited targeted therapies. Early diagnostic markers and novel therapeutic targets can significantly improve clinical management of gallbladder cancer.<h4>Methods</h4>Proteomic analysis of four gallbladder cancer cell lines based on the invasive property (non-invasive to highly invasive) was carried out using the isobaric tags for relative and ab  ...[more]
