RESUMO

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy for women worldwide, while Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) accounts for 20% in all patients. Compared with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, which could be effectively controlled via endocrine therapy, TNBC is more aggressive and worse in prognosis. It is therefore urgent and necessary to develop a novel therapeutic strategy for TNBC treatment. Recent studies identified Hippo signaling is highly activated in TNBC, which could be a driving pathway for TNBC progression. In our study, we determine RNF187 as a negative regulator for Hippo signaling activation. RNF187 depletion significantly decreases cell migration and invasion capacity in TNBC. These effects could be rescued by further YAP depletion. Depletion of RNF187 increases the YAP protein level and Hippo signaling target genes, such as CTGF and CYR61 in TNBC. Immuno-precipitation assay shows that RNF187 associates with YAP, promoting its degradation possibly via inducing YAP K48-dependent poly-ubiquitination. Interestingly, Our clinical data reveals that RNF187 reversely correlates with YAP protein level and Hippo target genes. RNF187 tends to correlate with good prognosis in TNBC patients. Our study provides evidence to establish a proteolytic mechanism in regulation Hippo signaling activation in TNBC.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The clinical characteristics of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation have been well studied. However, the correlation of EGFR mutation with mutant p53, Ki-67, and thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1) and their prognostic value remain indistinct. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Clinical and pathological characteristics and overall survival were analysed retrospectively in 523 surgically resected NSCLC patients. The expression levels of p53, Ki-67, and TTF-1 protein were detected by immunohistochemistry, and an amplification refractory mutation system was used to access the status of EGFR mutations. RESULTS: Of 523 patients with surgically resected NSCLC, 210 patients (38.4%) harboured EGFR mutations. Compared to the EGFR wild-type lung cancer, mutated EGFR harboured significantly increased mutant p53-positive or TTF-1-positive tumors (P<0.001 and<0.001, respectively). Former or current smokers, pathological stage and mutant p53-or TTF-1-positive status were independent predictors of EGFR mutation (P=0.001, 0.014, 0.014 and <0.001, respectively). Patients with p53 under expression had significantly better overall survival in the whole cohort and wild-type EGFR cohort (P=0.0010 and 0.0020, respectively) as well as in Ki-67-negative and TTF-1-positive patients (P<0.0001 and 0.0009, and P<0.0001 and 0.0004, respectively). Interestingly, in patients harbouring EGFR mutations, p53-under expression and Ki-67-negative cases still had better survival than positive cases, whereas there was no obvious difference between TTF-1-negative and TTF-1-positive cases (P=0.0198, 0.0068 and 0.3684, respectively). Finally, in NSCLC patients with wild-type EGFR, positive Ki-67 expression was the independent predictor for the worst survival (P=0.022). CONCLUSION: The expression levels of mutant p53, Ki-67, and TTF-1 were correlated with EGFR mutation. High expression of mutant p53 and Ki-67 correlated with poor survival in the entire cohort, EGFR mutation or wild-type cohort. In addition, Ki-67 might have an impact on the prognosis for patients with NSCLC with wild-type EGFR.

RESUMO

Breast cancer ranks no. 1 in women cancer worldwide, while 60-70% are estrogen receptor alpha positive. The estrogen selective modulators, such as tamoxifen, become the effective drugs for controlling ER alpha breast cancer progression. However, tamoxifen resistance will develop during long-time treatment and cancer progression. Thus, further understanding of ER alpha signaling becomes necessary for the improvement of breast cancer therapy. Here, we identify TRIM56 as a novel regulatory factor in ER alpha signaling. TRIM56 expression is positively correlated with ER alpha and PR in breast cancer samples and is related to poor prognosis in endocrine therapy patients. TRIM56 depletion significantly decreases ER alpha signaling activity and ER-alpha-positive breast cancer proliferation in vitro and in vivo. TRIM56 associates with AF1 domain of ER alpha via its WD40 domain in the cytoplasm. TRIM56 prolongs ER alpha protein stability, possibly through targeting ER alpha K63-linked ubiquitination. In conclusion, our study reveals an interesting posttranslational mechanism between TRIM56 and ER alpha in breast cancer progression. Targeting TRIM56 could be a promising approach for ER-alpha-positive breast cancer.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between the Sirtuin-3 (SIRT3) expression and the clinical indicators/prognosis of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: The mRNA level of SIRT3 was detected by real-time PCR, while the protein level was detected by Western blot and immunohistochemical staining. SPSS 16.0 software was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The expression of SIRT3 was significantly higher in NSCLC tissue than in adjacent tissue. The SIRT3 level was correlated significantly with lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of NSCLC patients. Moreover, univariate analysis showed that the expression of SIRT3, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, degree of differentiation, and clinical stage were correlated with the prognosis of NSCLC patients. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that lymph node metastasis, the tumor size, and SIRT3 expression were independent prognostic factors for NSCLC patients. CONCLUSIONS: SIRT3 is associated with the development and progression of NSCLC. The SIRT3 expression can be used as an independent prognostic factor for NSCLC patients and help identify prognosis of NSCLC. Therefore, SIRT3 has the potential to become a new factor for prognosis prediction and personalized treatment of NSCLC.
