DAB2IP (DOC2/DAB2 interactive protein) is downregulated in several cancer types, and its downregulation is involved in tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). We aimed to investigate the potential role of DAB2IP in the development and progression of gastric cancer. DAB2IP levels were analyzed in human gastric cancer and adjacent normal tissues by Western blots and immunohistochemistry. Potential roles of DAB2IP in regulating gastric cancer cell growth and metastasis were examined by genetic manipulation in vitro. The molecular signaling was determined to understand the mechanisms of observed DAB2IP effects. DAB2IP level is lower in gastric cancer tissues as compared to paired normal tissues. Knockdown of DAB2IP enhanced gastric cancer cell growth and metastasis in vitro and promoted EMT progress at both protein and mRNA levels. Silencing DAB2IP activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) pathway, and the enhanced proliferation and migration ability induced by DAB2IP knockdown were reduced after incubation with U0126 in SGC7901 gastric cancer cells. Inhibition of DAB2IP enhances gastric cancer cell growth and metastasis through targeting the ERK1/2 signaling, indicating that it may serve as a potential target for treatment of gastric cancer.

Gastric cancer is one of the most the prevalent malignancies and the therapeutic strategies for patients with gastric cancer remains limited. Local anesthetic levobupivacaine has demonstrated potential anti-cancer property, but its correlation with gastric cancer and ferroptosis is poor understood. Here, we identified the novel function of levobupivacaine in regulating ferroptosis of gastric cancer cells. The treatment of levobupivacaine suppressed gastric cancer cell viabilities and Edu-positive cell proportions. The gastric cancer cell growth was reduced by levobupivacaine in vivo. Moreover, the treatment of levobupivacaine enhanced erastin-induced inhibitory impact on gastric cancer cell viabilities. The levels of Fe2+/iron and lipid ROS were induced by levobupivacaine in erastin and RSL3-stimulated gastric cancer cells. levobupivacaine-upregulated miR-489-3p enhanced ferroptosis of gastric cancer cells by targeting SLC7A11. MiR-489-3p was involved in levobupivacaine-induced ferroptosis of gastric cancer cells. Levobupivacaine/miR-489-3p/SLC7A11 axis attenuates gastric cancer cell proliferation in vitro. Therefore, we concluded that the local anesthetic levobupivacaine induced ferroptosis of gastric cancer cells to repress gastric cancer cell growth by miR-489-3p/SLC7A11 axis.

34 Background: To establish NIR optical probe based on the HA-based supramolecular hydrogels (HASHs) conjugated with Cy5.5 for CD44-overexpressed gastric cancer imaging. Methods: To establish HASHs, Cy5.5 NHS ester was conjugated with polyethyleneimine (PEI, 25k Da) and mixed with hyaluronic acid (HA, 1M Da) by an electric interaction. The optimazed ideal molar ratio of PEI to HA was confirmed by DLS and gel electrophoresis. The CD44-expression level for various gastric cancer cell lInes (MKN1, MKN28, MKN45, MKN72, AGS, and N87 cells) was evaluated by FACS analysis. For establishment of the gastric cancer xenograft model, CD44-overexpressed gastric cancer cells were implanted into the BALB/c nude mouse's proximal thigh region. For in vitro targeting study, the cellular affinity of HASHs for CD44-low expressed gastric cancer cell line and CD44-overexpressed gastric cancer cell line was verified by confocal microscopy and IHC staing. For in vivo NIR imaging, HASHs were injected into established xenograft mouse via tail vein and NIR optical imaging was conducted time-dependently. Results: The colloidal size of HASHs was 1.4 micrometer and their morphology was confirmed by electron microscopy. CD44-expression level of MKN45 cells was 92.53% that was higher than MKN28 cells (2.66%). After the treatment of HASHs, the endocytosis into the cytosol was examined for MKN45 cells, but not observed in MKN28 cells due to the deficiency of CD44. 30 days after the transplantion of MKN45 cells, for in vivo imaging study, the prepared HASHs were intraveneously injected into tumor-bearing mouse model. By NIR optical imaging, the optical intensity at tumor site was enhanced upto 3 hours and the maximum intensity was 350 times larger than normal tissue. Conclusions: HASHs was established using supramolecular HA and Cy5.5-conjugated PEI for the targeted imaging of CD44-overexpressed gastric cancer cells. In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that SHAHs can visualize the individualized CD44-overexpressed gastric cancer cells by non-invasive optical imaging.
