RESUMO
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the leading cause of gynecologic cancer-related death in the world. Accumulating evidence indicated the important role of TRIM44 in cancer development. However, how TRIM44 displays in OC and the underlying mechanism remained unclear. TRIM44 and FRK expression in OC tissues and cell lines were investigated by western blot and RT-qPCR. Histotype of tissue samples and patients' data were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier Curve was performed to validate the effect of TRIM44. Colony formation assay, MTT assay, Transwell assay, and wound-healing assay were applied to elucidate the function of TRIM44 in OC cells. CHIP assay was used to explore the association between TRIM44 and FRK. Finally, we performed SKOV3 xenografts in Balb/c nude mice to further confirm the involvement of TRIM44 in OC development. We found TRIM44 highly expressed while FRK displayed low expression in OC cell lines and tissues. Moreover, analysis of histotype of tissues and patients' data and Kaplan-Meier Curve implied the important role of TRIM44 and FRK in tumor progression. Further in vitro study suggested that knocking down TRIM44 inhibited OC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion. Besides, FRK was identified as the target gene of TRIM44 in OC, and TRIM44 promoted OC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion by inhibiting FRK. Finally, in vivo animal experiment further confirmed the promotive effect of TRIM44 on OC progression. Our findings demonstrated that TRIM44 facilitated OC proliferation, migration, and invasion by inhibiting FRK, providing new insights for theoretical research and therapy of OC.

In this study, the effects of dietary fatty acids on the fatty acid compositions and lipid metabolic-related genes expression in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced rat mammary carcinogenesis were evaluated. The 50-day-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were intervened by different dietary fats (15% wt/wt), including saturated fatty acid (SFA), monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), n-3 PUFA, 1:1 n-6/n-3, 5:1 n-6/n-3, 10:1 n-6/n-3, and 1:2:1 S/M/P (1:1 n-6/n-3), alone or in combination with MNU. There was no mammary tumor occurrence in the control and MNU-treated n-3 PUFA groups after 18 wk. n-3 PUFA diet retarded the weight growth of rats. 1:1 n-6/n-3 diet significantly reduced the MNU-induced tumor incidence and tumor multiplicity compared with SFA, MUFA, n-6 PUFA, 5:1 n-6/n-3, 10:1 n-6/n-3 and 1:2:1 S/M/P diets (42.86% vs. 83.33%-92.31%, 0.79 vs. 2.62-2.85, P < 0.01). Additionally, 1:1 n-6/n-3 diet substantially increased cis-5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid and cis-4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid levels, whereas it decreased C20:4 level and the mRNA expressions of fatty acid synthase, Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) in mammary tissues (P < 0.05). These results suggest that 1:1 n-6/n-3 in the diet is effective in the prevention of mammary tumor development by increasing the n-3 PUFA content and reducing the expression of lipid metabolic-related genes.

Hdac3 is essential for efficient DNA replication and DNA damage control. Deletion of Hdac3 impaired DNA repair and greatly reduced chromatin compaction and heterochromatin content. These defects corresponded to increases in histone H3K9,K14ac; H4K5ac; and H4K12ac in late S phase of the cell cycle, and histone deposition marks were retained in quiescent Hdac3-null cells. Liver-specific deletion of Hdac3 culminated in hepatocellular carcinoma. Whereas HDAC3 expression was downregulated in only a small number of human liver cancers, the mRNA levels of the HDAC3 cofactor NCOR1 were reduced in one-third of these cases. siRNA targeting of NCOR1 and SMRT (NCOR2) increased H4K5ac and caused DNA damage, indicating that the HDAC3/NCOR/SMRT axis is critical for maintaining chromatin structure and genomic stability.
