Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays an important role in peritoneal metastasis of Gastric cancer (GC). Tumor exosomes can mediate tumor directed metastasis, and TGF-β1 is an important factor in inducing tumor Epithelial mesenchymal transition. However, it is not clear whether GC derived exosomes can induce peritoneal mesothelial cells through the TGF-β1/ Smads pathway and the effect of injured peritoneal mesothelial cells on the biological characteristics of GC cells. In this study, we demonstrated that GC-derived exosomes can activate the TGF-β1/Smads pathway in peritoneal mesothelial cells and induce the corresponding EMT process, and that the injured peritoneal mesothelial cells can improve the migration and adhesion of GC cells. Taken together, these data further support the critical role of exosomes in the remodeling of the pre-metastatic microenvironment.

Background/Aims: To investigate the effect of Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) on the regulation of the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway in peritoneal mesothelial cells with an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Methods: EMT of human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HMrSV5) was induced using 2 ng/ml TGF-β1. Cells were randomly divided into a vehicle group, a vehicle group with AS-IV, a TGF-β1 treated group, and a TGF-β1 treated group receiving varied doses of AS-IV or NAC. Real-time quantitative PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of genes and proteins associated with the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway and EMT. DCFH-DA was used to detect the generation of ROS in HMrSV5 cells, and a transwell migration assay was used to verify the capacity of AS-IV to inhibit EMT in HMrSV5 cells. Lentiviruses were used as carriers for the overexpression or knockdown of the Smad7 gene. Results: Expression levels of E-cadherin (epithelial marker) was decreased and vimentin, α-SMA (EMT markers) and collagen I (extracellular matrix protein) phospho-Smad2/3, Snail1 and Snail2 was increased significantly in the TGF-β1-treated HMrSV5 cells. AS-IV was associated with downregulated expression of vimentin and phospho-Smad2/3 in a dose-dependent manner, while the expression of Smad7 increased. Silenced or forced expression of Smad7 verified its role in the inhibitory effect of AS-IV on TGF-β1-induced EMT in HMrSV5 cells. Conclusion: AS-IV effectively promotes the upregulation of Smad7 in the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway during the EMT of HMrSV5 cells, indicating its potential therapeutic effect for the control of PF.

Background. microRNA (miRNA, miR) are thought to interact with multiple mRNAs which are involved in the EMT process. But the role of miRNAs in peritoneal fibrosis has remained unknown.Objective. To determine if miRNA589 regulates the EMT induced by TGFβ1 in human peritoneal mesothelial cell line (HMrSV5 cells).Methods. 1. Level of miR589 was detected in both human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) isolated from continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients’ effluent and HMrSV5 cells treated with or without TGFβ1. 2. HMrSV5 cells were divided into three groups: control group, TGFβ1 group, and pre-miR-589+TGFβ1 group. The level of miRNA589 was determined by realtime PCR. The expressions of ZO-1, vimentin, and E-cadherin in HPMCs were detected, respectively.Results. Decreased level of miRNA589 was obtained in either HPMCs of long-term CAPD patients or HMrSV5 cells treated with TGFβ1. In vitro, TGFβ1 led to upregulation of vimentin and downregulation of ZO-1 as well as E-cadherin in HMrSV5 cells, which suggested EMT, was induced. The changes were accompanied with notably decreased level of miRNA589 in HMrSV5 cells treated with TGFβ1. Overexpression of miRNA589 by transfection with pre-miRNA589 partially reversed these EMT changes.Conclusion. miRNA589 mediates TGFβ1 induced EMT in human peritoneal mesothelial cells.

Abstract Neuroblastoma (NB) is an extracranial solid tumor in children with complex mechanism. Increasing reports indicated that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (SNHG16) account for the pathogenesis of NB. Nevertheless, the precise functions of SNHG16 needed to be further exposed in NB progression. Our data revealed that SNHG16 and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 α (HNF4α) were up-regulated, but miR-542-3p was down-regulated in NB. Knockdown of SNHG16 or HNF4α could impede cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro. Interestingly, the role of SNHG16 detetion in cell behaviors was rescued by HNF4α overexpression in NB cells. Mechanically, SNHG16 modulated the progression of tumor growth via miR-542-3p/HNF4α axis in NB. Also, SNHG16 knockdown inactivated rat sarcoma/effector of RAS/mitogen-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase/extracellular regulated protein kinases (RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK) signaling pathway through HNF4α. Therefore, SNHG16/miR-542-3p/HNF4α axis modified NB progression via RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway, might highlight a novel therapeutic approach for NB.

AbstractPeritoneal dissemination is a major metastatic pathway for gastrointestinal and ovarian malignancies. The miR-29b family is downregulated in peritoneal fluids in patients with peritoneal metastases (PM). We examined the effect of miR-29b on mesothelial cells (MC) which play critical a role in the development of PM through mesothelial-mesenchymal transition (MMT). Human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) were isolated from surgically resected omental tissue and MMT induced by stimulation with 10 ng/ml TGF-β1. MiR-29b mimics and negative control miR were transfected by lipofection using RNAiMAX and the effects on the MMT evaluated in vitro. HPMC produced substantial amounts of miR-29b which was markedly inhibited by TGF-β1. TGF-β1 stimulation of HPMC induced morphological changes with decreased expression of E-cadherin and calretinin, and increased expression of vimentin and fibronectin. TGF-β1 also enhanced proliferation and migration of HPMC as well as adhesion of tumor cells in a fibronectin dependent manner. However, all events were strongly abrogated by simultaneous transfection of miR-29b. MiR-29b inhibits TGF-β1 induced MMT and replacement of miR-29b in the peritoneal cavity might be effective to prevent development of PM partly through the effects on MC.
