Abstract AimGastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors.Chrysophanol has been reported to have antitumor effects on a variety of cancers, but the role of chrysophanol in gastric cancer remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chrysophanol on proliferation, pyroptosis, migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.MethodsMKN 28 and AGS cells were treatde with different concentrations of chrysophanol, then cell proliferation, migration,invasion and pyroptosis were decteed by CCK-8, Colony-forming assay, Wound Healing assay, Transwell and flow cytometry, respectively.Subsequently, NLRP3 siRNA was transfected into MKN 28 cells, cell proliferation pyroptosis, migration and invasion were reassessed in these transfected cells. The expression of caspase-1 and IL-1β in the downstream of NLRP3 was detected by qRT PCR and Western blot.ResultsChrysophanol significantly inhibited the proliferation of GC cells, promoted pyroptosis, inhibited cell migration and invasion, and up-regulated the expression level of NLRP3 inflammasome in GC cells. Silencing NLRP3 inhibited the effects of chrysophanol on proliferation, pyroptosis, migration and invasion of MKN 28 cells. Chrysophanol plays an anti-cancer role through high expression of NLRP3.CoclusionsChrysophanol can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells by regulating NLRP3, promote the death of gastric cancer cells, and play an anti-tumor role,which is a clinical strategy with great potential for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Abstract MiRNA operates as a tumor suppressor or carcinogen to regulate cell proliferation, metastasis, invasion, differentiation, apoptosis and metabolic process. In the present research, we investigated the effect and mechanism of miR496 in human gastric cancer cells. Cell proliferation was measured by CCK8 and clonogenic assay. Transwell test was performed to detect cell migration and invasion. Flow cytometry analysis was used to evaluate cell apoptosis. Bioinformatics software targetscan was used for the screening of miR-496’s target gene. MiR-496 was down regulated in three gastric cancer cell lines, SGC-790, AGS and MKN45 compared with normal gastric epithelial cell line GES-1. MiR-496 mimics inhibited the proliferation of AGS cells after the transfection for 48 h and 72 h. The migration and invasion of AGS cells were also inhibited by the transfection of miR-496 mimics. In addition, miR-496 mimics induced the apoptosis through up regulating the levels of Bax and Active Caspase3 and down regulating the levels of Bcl-2 and Total Caspase3. Bioinformatics analysis showed that there was a binding site between miR-496 and LYN kinase (LYN). MiR-496 mimics could inhibit the expression of LYN in AGS cells. The overexpression of LYN blocked the inhibition of tumor cell growth, as well as the inhibition of AKT/mTOR signaling pathway induced by miR-496 in gastric cancer cells. In conclusion, miR-496 inhibited the proliferation through the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway via targeting LYN in gastric cancer cells. Our research provides a new potential target for clinical diagnosis and targeted treatment of gastric cancer.

Background/Aims: There is little published data on the role of FOXP3 in gastric cancer. Methods: FOXP3 expression and localization in gastric cancer tissues and cells were examined by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, flow cytometry, western blot, and laser confocal microscopy. CCK8, plate clone, wound healing, and transwell insert assays were performed for gastric cancer cells. Potential molecules and signaling pathways were screened using high-throughput transcriptome sequencing. Results: FOXP3 expression in gastric cancer tissues was higher than that in para-carcinoma tissues. It was restricted to the cytoplasm of para-carcinoma tissues, but was observed in the cytoplasm or/and nuclei of gastric cancer tissues. FOXP3 expression was positively correlated with pathological grading, and was detected in gastric cancer and GES-1 cells, where it was expressed in the cytoplasm alone, or in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. FOXP3 overexpression promoted cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while FOXP3 knockdown suppressed these effects. Furthermore, RT-PCR and ELISA confirmed that FOXP3 upregulation resulted in increased TGF-β expression and secretion in gastric cancer cells. Conclusion: FOXP3 expression was associated with degree of gastric cancer differentiation. In addition, upregulated and ectopic tumoral FOXP3 can promote gastric cancer proliferation, migration, and invasion, partly through the TGF-β pathway.

Abstract Background: Recent studies have shown that microRNA-99a(miR-99a)plays a key role in the development of virious malignancies; however, its relationship with gastric cancer remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the functions and potential mechanisms of miR-99a in gastric cancer. Methods: Real-time qRT-PCR was used to assess the expression levels of miR-99a in gastric cancer tissue samples and cell lines compared to their matched adjacent normal tissues and a normal gastric mucosa epithelial cell line, respectively. SGC-7901 cells were transfected with miR-99a mimics and negative controls to determine the effects of miR-99a overexpression on cell proliferation, cell cycle transition, migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells in vitro . The role of miR-99a in endogenous c-Src expression in gastric cancer cells was also investigated by qRT-PCR and Western blotting. Results: Our results showed a significant increase in miR-99a expression in both gastric cancer tissues and cells compared to normal tissues and cells. Overexpression of miR-99a significantly promoted the cell proliferation, migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells compared to normal cells, with a concurrent increase in the S+G2 phases of the cell cycle. Further investigations found that miR-99a overexpression led to significant upregulation of endogenous c-Src. Conclusion: Taken together, our findings suggest that miR-99a may act as a tumour promoter in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer by indirectly modulating c-Src expression.

Annexin A2 (ANXA2) has been well known to associate with the progress of malignant tumor. However, the biological behavior of ANXA2 in gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. We made a hypothesis in transcriptome level from TCGA datasets. Then, we used immunohistochemical staining to quantify the expression level of ANXA2 protein in GC tissues compared with adjacent tissues. Quantitative real-time PCR and western blot were used for analyzing ANXA2 expression in human GC (SGC-7901, MKN-45, BGC-823, and AGS) cell lines. We investigated the effect of a lentivirus-mediated knock-down of ANXA2 on the proliferation, invasion and migration of gastric cancer AGS cells. Cell proliferation was examined by MTT and colony formation tests. Cell apoptosis and cycle were measured by flow cytometry. Migration and invasion were detected by transwell assay. We found that high expression of ANXA2 can increase the mobility of cancer cells from TCGA datasets. ANXA2 was upregulated in GC tissues compared with adjacent tissues. AGS cell line displayed significantly higher expression of ANXA2 among the four GC cell lines. In addition, ANXA2 silencing led to a weakened ability of proliferation, invasion, and migration in GC cells; targeting of ANXA2 may be a potential therapeutic strategy for GC patients.

AbstractFucosylation plays an important role in the development of carcinogenesis. miRNA-1290 emerged as crucial molecule to regulate cancer cell proliferation. This study evaluated the role of miRNA-1290 to development of gastric cancer by regulation of fucosyltransferase-IV, specific protein-1 (SP1) and α1,3-fucosylated glycans.We analyzed the role of H. pylori and miR-1290 in gastric cancer cells in induce fucosylation and cell proliferation, as well as SP1 and ubiquitin protein interaction. We found miR-1290 induced proliferation in H. pylori CagA treated gastric cancer cells by stimulating FUT4/LeY fucosylation, as evidence by high expression of miR-1290 and phosphorylation of EGFR and MAPKs pathway in dose–dependent manner. In addition, miR-1290 inhibited SP1 protein with the regulation of ubiquitin-proteasomal system and leads to stimulate FUT4 and α1,3-fucosylated glycans level. We report the role of miRNA-1290 to stimulate FUT4 fucosylation and LeY through EGFR/MAPKs pathway by targeting SP1 in the development of gastric cancer.
