RESUMO

Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide, including in Taiwan. The poor prognosis of the advanced lung cancer lies in delayed diagnosis and non-druggable targets. It is worth paying more attention to these ongoing issues. Public databases and an in-house cohort were used for validation. The KM plotter was utilized to discover the clinical significance. GSEA and GSVA were adopted for a functional pathway survey. Molecular biological methods, including proliferation, migration, and the EMT methods, were used for verification. Based on public databases, the increased expression of Ladinin 1 (LAD1) was presented in tumor and metastatic sites. Furthermore, an in-house cohort revealed a higher intensity of LAD1 in tumor rather than in normal parts. The greater the expression of LAD1 was, the shorter the duration of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patient survival. Moreover, the association of B3GNT3 with LAD1 affected the survival of LUAD patients. Functional analyses using GSEA and GSVA revealed the associations with survival, migration, invasion, and EMT. Biologic functions supported the roles of LAD1 in proliferation via the cell cycle and migration in EMT. This study reveals that LAD1 plays a major role in regulating proliferation and migration in lung cancer and impacts survival in LUAD. It is worth investing in further studies and in the development of drugs targeting LAD1.

RESUMO

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the deadliest cancers regarding both mortality rate and number of deaths and warrants greater effort in the development of potential therapeutic targets. The enhancer of rudimentary homolog (ERH) has been implicated in the promotion and progression of certain types of cancer. In the present study, ERH was assessed for its expression pattern and survival association with LUAD in public transcriptomic and proteomic databases. Bioinformatic methods and data from websites, including University of Alabama at Birmingham CANcer data analysis Portal and The Cancer Genome Atlas, were utilized to demonstrate the functional behaviors and corresponding pathways of ERH in LUAD. Human A549 and CL1­0 cell lines were used to validate the findings via functional assays. It was demonstrated that the expression of ERH, at both the transcriptomic and proteomic levels, was higher in LUAD compared with in adjacent non­tumor lung tissue and was associated with worse survival prognosis. Moreover, high ERH expression was correlated with more aggressive functional states, such as cell cycle and invasion in LUAD, and the positive ERH­correlated gene set was associated with worse survival and an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide G was identified as a molecule that potentially interacted with ERH. Lastly, it was demonstrated that ERH promoted epithelial­mesenchymal transition and cell migration in vitro, but not proliferation. In conclusion, higher expression of ERH in LUAD may facilitate cancer progression and confer worse outcomes. Further deep investigation into the role of ERH in LUAD is needed.

RESUMO

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a common type of lung cancer. Although the diagnosis and treatment of LUAD have significantly improved in recent decades, the survival for advanced LUAD is still poor. It is necessary to identify more targets for developing potential agents against LUAD. This study explored the dysregulation of translation initiation factors, specifically eukaryotic initiation factors 4A1 (EIF4A1) and EIF4A2, in developing LUAD, as well as their underlying mechanisms. We found that the expression of EIF4A1, but not EIF4A2, was higher in tumor tissue and associated with poor clinical outcomes in LUAD patients. Elevated expression of EIF4H with poor prognosis may potentiate the oncogenic role of EIF4A1. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that upregulation of EIF4A1 was related to cell cycle regulation and DNA repair. The oncogenic effect of EIF4A1 was further elucidated by Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA). The GSVA score of the gene set positively correlated with EIF4A1 was higher in tumors and significantly associated with worse survival. In the meantime, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) also indicated that elevated EIF4A1 expression in LUAD patients was associated with a decreased infiltration score for immune cells by reducing anticancer immune cell types and recruiting immunosuppressive cells. Consistent with the results, the GSVA score of genes whose expression was negatively correlated with EIF4A1 was lower in the tumor tissue of LUAD cases with worse clinical outcomes and was strongly associated with the disequilibrium of anti-cancer immunity by recruiting anticancer immune cells. Based on the results from the present study, we hypothesize that the dysregulation of EIF4A1 might be involved in the pathophysiology of LUAD development by promoting cancer growth and changing the tumor immune microenvironment. This can be used to develop potential diagnostic biomarkers or therapeutic targets for LUAD.

RESUMO

Lung cancer is well known for its high mortality worldwide. The treatment for advanced lung cancer needs more attention to improve its survival time. A disintegrin and metallopeptidase with thrombospondin motifs 8 (ADAMTS8) has been linked to several cancer types. However, its role in lung cancer is worthy of deep investigation to promote novel drug development. This study took advantage of RNA-seq and bioinformatics to verify the role that ADAMTS8 plays in lung cancer. The functional assays suggested that ADAMTS8 mediates invasion and metastasis when expressed at a low level, contributing to poor overall survival (OS). The expression of ADAMTS8 was under the regulation of GATA Binding Protein 1 (GATA1) and executed its pathologic role through Thrombospondin Type 1 Domain Containing 1 (THSD1) and ADAMTS Like 2 (ADAMTSL2). To define the impact of ADAMTS8 in the lung cancer treatment strategy, this study further grouped lung cancer patients in the TCGA database into mutated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/wild-type EGFR and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) high/low groups. Importantly, the expression of ADAMTS8 was correlated positively with the recruitment of anticancer NKT cells and negatively with the infiltration of immunosuppressive Treg and exhausted T cells. The results indicated that lung cancer patients with higher ADAMTS8 levels among wild-type EGFR or low PD-L1 groups survive longer than those with lower levels do. This study indicates that ADAMTS8 might be a treatment option for patients with lung adenocarcinoma who lack efficient targeted or immunotherapies.

RESUMO

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) still holds the most dreadful clinical outcomes worldwide. Despite advanced treatment strategies, there are still some unmet needs. Next-generation sequencing of large-scale cancer genomics discovery projects combined with bioinformatics provides the opportunity to take a step forward in meeting clinical conditions. Based on in-house and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohorts, the results showed decreased levels of ADAMTS1 conferred poor survival compared with normal parts. Gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) indicated the negative correlation between ADAMTS1 and the potential roles of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), metastasis, and poor prognosis in LUAD patients. With the knockdown of ADAMTS1, A549 lung cancer cells exhibited more aggressive behaviors such as EMT and increased migration, resulting in cancer metastasis in a mouse model. The pathway interaction network disclosed the linkage of downregulated α2-macroglobulin (A2M), which regulates EMT and metastasis. Furthermore, immune components analysis indicated a positive relationship between ADAMTS1 and the infiltrating levels of multiple immune cells, especially anticancer CD4+ T cells in LUAD. Notably, ADAMTS1 expression was also inversely correlated with the accumulation of immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells, implying the downregulated ADAMTS1 mediated immune adjustment to fit the tumor survival disadvantages in LUAD patients. In conclusion, our study indicates that ADAMTS1 interacts with A2M in regulating EMT and metastasis in LUAD. Additionally, ADAMTS1 contributes to poor prognosis and immune infiltration in LUAD patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIM: Interactions between stromal and tumor cells in tumor microenvironment contribute to tumor progression. In bladder cancer (BCa), infiltration of macrophages in tumors correlates with cancer progression. Herein, the aim was to study the paracrine effects of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) on BCa cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The correlation between TAMs and tumor grade and stages was examined in tumor tissue microarrays. In addition, a conditioned media (CM) model was employed to investigate the paracrine effects of macrophages on BCa cell growth, migration, and invasion, as well as on the cytokine profile of each cell line. RESULTS: The correlation of tumor-infiltrating macrophages with high-grade and muscle-invasive BCa was demonstrated in human bladder tumor tissue microarrays. CM from co-cultures of macrophages and BCa cells increased BCa cell growth, migration and invasion. Moreover, higher mRNA and protein expression levels of CCL5 and IL-8 were found in cells and CM from co-cultures, respectively. CONCLUSION: The paracrine interaction between BCa cells and TAMs led to enhanced BCa cell growth, migration, and invasiveness, and moreover, increased IL-8 and CCL5 cytokine production in tumor microenvironment.
