Gemcitabine (GEM) resistance remains a challenging clinical issue to overcome in chemotherapy against pancreatic cancer. We previously demonstrated that miR-210 derived from pancreatic cancer stem cells enhanced the GEM-resistant properties of pancreatic cancer cells, thus identifying miR-210 as an oncogenic miRNA. Herein, we report the existence of an upstream effector that acts as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to miR-210. Bioinformatic screening was performed to identify lncRNAs with a binding relationship to miR-210. Overexpression and interference vectors were constructed to demonstrate the effect of ceRNA activity in pancreatic cell behavior, both in vitro and in vivo. DLEU2L (deleted in lymphocytic leukemia 2-like), which is expressed at low levels in pancreatic cancer tissues, was shown to exhibit a binding relationship with miR-210-3p. Overexpression of DLEU2L and silencing of miR-210-3p suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells while promoting apoptosis. These effects occurred via the inhibition of the Warburg effect (aerobic glycolysis) and AKT/mTOR signaling. In addition, we showed that BRCA2 is a target gene of miR-210-3p, and the downregulation of miR-210-3p by DLEU2L effectively induced an upregulation of BRCA2 via the ceRNA mechanism. In vivo, DLEU2L overexpression and miR-210-3p interference suppressed pancreatic tumor progression, consistent with the results of in vitro studies. The findings of our study establish DLEU2L as a ceRNA to miR-210-3p and reveal the critical role of the DLEU2L/miR-210-3p crosstalk in targeting GEM resistance.

AbstractPancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related mortalities and is characterized by rapid disease progression. Identification of novel therapeutic targets for this devastating disease is important. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1) is the rate-limiting enzyme of gluconeogenesis. The current study tested the expression and potential functions of PCK1 in pancreatic cancer. We show that PCK1 mRNA and protein levels are significantly elevated in human pancreatic cancer tissues and cells. In established and primary pancreatic cancer cells, PCK1 silencing (by shRNA) or CRISPR/Cas9-induced PCK1 knockout potently inhibited cell growth, proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced robust apoptosis activation. Conversely, ectopic overexpression of PCK1 in pancreatic cancer cells accelerated cell proliferation and migration. RNA-seq analyzing of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in PCK1-silenced pancreatic cancer cells implied that DEGs were enriched in the PI3K-Akt-mTOR cascade. In pancreatic cancer cells, Akt-mTOR activation was largely inhibited by PCK1 shRNA, but was augmented after ectopic PCK1 overexpression. In vivo, the growth of PCK1 shRNA-bearing PANC-1 xenografts was largely inhibited in nude mice. Akt-mTOR activation was suppressed in PCK1 shRNA-expressing PANC-1 xenograft tissues. Collectively, PCK1 is a potential therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.

Background/Aims: Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive malignancy as a result of highly metastatic potential. The current study was carried out to alter the expression of LINC01121 in pancreatic cancer, with the aim of elucidating its effects on the biological processes of cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis. We hypothesized that both the GLP1R gene and cAMP/PKA signaling pathway participate in the aforementioned process. Methods: Microarray data (GSE14245, GSE27890 and GSE16515) and annotating probe files linked to pancreatic cancer were downloaded through the GEO database. The Multi Experiment Matrix (MEM) site was used to predict the target gene of lncRNA. Both pancreatic cancer tissues (n = 56) and paracancerous tissues (n = 45) were collected from patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Immunohistochemistry was applied to identify the positive expression rate of GLP1R protein. Isolated pancreatic cancer cells and PANC-1 cells were independently classified into the blank, negative control (NC), LINC01121 vector, siRNA-LINC01121, siRNA-GLP1R and siRNA-LINC01121 + siRNA-GLP1R groups. Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot analysis were applied to detect the expressions of LINC01121, GLP1R, cAMP, PKA, CREB, Bcl-2, Bad and PCNA. Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cycle progression, and apoptosis were examined by MTT assay, scratch test, Transwell assay and flow cytometry analyses of Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Results: Observations were made indicating that LINC01121 was highly expressed, while low expressions of GLP1R in pancreatic cancer were detected based on microarray data, which was largely in consistent with the data collected of LINC01121 and GLP1R within the tissues. The target prediction program and luciferase activity analysis was testament to the notion suggesting that GLP1R was indeed a target of LINC01121. In contrast to the blank and NC groups, the LINC01121 vector group exhibited increased expressions of LINC01121; decreased mRNA and protein levels of GLP1R, Bad, cAMP, and PKA; increased protein levels of CREB, Bcl-2, PCNA, p-PKA and p-CREB; increased cell proliferation, migration and invasion; and decreased cell apoptosis. There was no significant difference detected among the blank, NC, and siRNA-LINC01121 + siRNA-GLP1R groups, except that decreased LINC01121 expression was determined in the siRNA-LINC01121 + siRNA-GLP1R group. Parallel data were observed in the pancreatic cancer cells and PANC-1 cells. Conclusion: The current study presents evidence indicating that LINC01121 might inhibit apoptosis while acting to promote proliferation, migration, and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells, supplementing the stance held that LINC01121 functions as a tumor promoter by means of its involvement in the process of translational repression of the GLP1R and inhibition of the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway.

Abstract Background Propofol is a commonly used anesthetic with controversial effects on cancer cells. A growing number of studies have demonstrated that low concentrations of propofol are associated with tumor suppression and when used as an intravenous anesthesia improved recurrence-free survival rates for many cancers, but deeper insights into its underlying mechanism are needed. Methods The study detailed herein focuses upon the effect of propofol on pancreatic cancer cells and the mechanism by which propofol reduces ADAM8 expression. The ability of propofol to impact the proliferation, migration and cell cycle of a pancreatic cancer cell line was assessed in vitro. This was mechanistically explored following the identification of SP1 binding sites within ADAM8, which enabled the regulatory effects of SP1 on ADAM8 following propofol treatment to be further explored. Results This study was able to show that propofol significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells and decreased the percentage of cells in S-phase. Propofol treatment was also shown to repress ADAM8 and SP1 expression, but was unable to affect ADAM8 expression following knockdown of SP1. Moreover, a direct physical interaction between SP1 and ADAM8 was verified using Co-immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays. Conclusion These results suggest that propofol represses pathological biological behaviors associated with pancreatic cancer cells through the suppression of SP1, which in turn results in lower ADAM8 mRNA expression and protein levels.
