Colorectal Cancer Progression

AbstractOxysterol-binding protein like protein 3 (OSBPL3) has been shown involving in the development of several human cancers. However, the relationship between OSBPL3 and colorectal cancer (CRC), particularly the role of OSBPL3 in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of CRC remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of OSBPL3 in CRC and found that its expression was significantly higher in CRC tissues than that in normal tissues. In addition, high expression of OSBPL3 was closely related to poor differentiation, advanced TNM stage and poor prognosis of CRC. Further experiments showed that over-expression of OSBPL3 promoted the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of CRC in vitro and in vivo models. Moreover, we revealed that OSBPL3 promoted CRC progression through activation of RAS signaling pathway. Furthermore, we demonstrated that hypoxia induced factor 1 (HIF-1A) can regulate the expression of OSBPL3 via binding to the hypoxia response element (HRE) in the promoter of OSBPL3. In summary, Upregulation of OSBPL3 by HIF1A promotes colorectal cancer progression through activation of RAS signaling pathway. This novel mechanism provides a comprehensive understanding of both OSBPL3 and the RAS signaling pathway in the progression of CRC and indicates that the HIF1A–OSBPL3–RAS axis is a potential target for early therapeutic intervention in CRC progression.

Colorectal cancer is a major public health problem and fourth guiding cause of cancer-induced mortality worldwide. The five-year survival rate for patients with colorectal cancer remains poor, and almost half of colorectal cancer patients present recurrence and die within five years. The increasing studies showed that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) was involved in colorectal cancer. Therefore, this study was used to explore molecular mechanisms of nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) in colorectal cancer. The real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to estimate the expression levels of NEAT1, Nuclear receptor 4 A1 (NR4A1), and miR-486-5p in colorectal cancer tissues and cells. Kaplan-Meier curve was conducted to analyze relationship between survival time of colorectal cancer patients and level of NEAT1. The protein levels of NR4A1, β-catenin, c-Myc, and cyclinD1 were assessed with western blot assay. 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazol-3-ium bromide (MTT) and flow cytometry assays were performed to evaluate proliferation and apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells, respectively. The migration and invasion abilities of cells were examined by transwell assay. The relationship between miR-486-5p and NEAT1 or NR4A1 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. We found NEAT1 and NR4A1 were highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines compared with controls. Loss-functional experiments revealed that knockdown of NEAT1 or NR4A1 repressed proliferation and motility, while inducing apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells. The gain of NR4A1 could abolish NEAT1 silencing-induced effects in colorectal cancer cells. In addition, NEAT1 contributed to colorectal cancer progression through mediating NR4A1/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. In conclusion, NEAT1 stimulated colorectal cancer progression via acting as competing endogenous RNA to sponge miR-486-5p and regulate NR4A1/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Background. As a key step in enhancing cancer cell invasion and metastasis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays an important role in colorectal cancer progression. EMT is triggered by a variety of signaling pathways, among which the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathway has been implicated as a primary inducer. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that MnTE-2-PyP (chemical name: manganese(III) meso-tetrakis-(N-ethylpyridinium-2-yl), a superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic, inhibits TGF-β signaling; however, its ability to inhibit TGF-β-induced EMT in colorectal cancer has not yet been explored. Methods. To verify our hypothesis that MnTE-2-PyP attenuates TGF-β-induced EMT, human colorectal cancer cells were treated with TGF-β in the presence or absence of MnTE-2-PyP. Cells were analyzed by several techniques including western blotting, real-time quantitative PCR, transwell assay, and wound healing assay. Results. MnTE-2-PyP reverses cell phenotypes induced by TGF-β in colon cancer cells. MnTE-2-PyP treatment significantly reduced the expression of mesenchymal markers but maintained epithelial marker expression. Mechanistically, MnTE-2-PyP suppressed the phosphorylated Smad2/3 protein levels induced by TGF-β in SW480 cells, but MnTE-2-PyP failed to suppress TGF-β-induced Slug and Snail expression in colorectal cells. Furthermore, MnTE-2-PyP effectively suppressed TGF-β-mediated cell migration and invasion and the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) in colorectal cells. Conclusion. Taken together, we provide an in-depth mechanism by which MnTE-2-PyP inhibits colorectal cancer progression, supporting an important role for MnTE-2-PyP as an effective and innovative antitumor agent to enhance treatment outcomes in colorectal cancer.

Objectives. This study investigated the functional mechanism of transmembrane protein 100 (TMEM100) as a tumor inhibitor gene in CRC cells and offered a reference for the treatment of CRC. Methods. The mRNA expression data of CRC were acquired from the TCGA database to mine differentially expressed mRNAs. The role of TMEM100 in the progression of CRC cells was evaluated by MTT, colony formation, scratch healing, and Transwell assays. The influence of TMEM100 on the TGF-β signaling pathway was detected by western blot. Results. TMEM100 was markedly lowly expressed in CRC. CRC cell growth was significantly suppressed by overexpressing TMEM100 but noticeably facilitated by silencing TMEM100. Overexpression of TMEM100 inhibited the activation of the TGF-β signaling pathway, thus inhibiting malignant progression of CRC. Conclusion. TMEM100 is lowly expressed in CRC, which can suppress CRC cell growth by regulating the TGF-β signaling pathway.
