RESUMO

Osteogeinc differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into osteoblasts is a key step for bone tissue engineering in regenerative medicine. The insight into regulatory mechanism of osteogenesis of MSCs facilitates achieving better recovery effect. Long non-coding RNAs are regarded as a family of important moderators in osteogenesis. In this study, we found a novel lncRNA, lnc-PPP2R1B was up-regulated during osteogenesis of MSCs by Illumina HiSeq transcritome sequencing. We demonstrated lnc-PPP2R1B overexpression promoted osteogenesis and knockdown of lnc-PPP2R1B inhibited osteogenesis of MSCs. Mechanically, it physically interacted with and up-regulated heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L Like (HNRNPLL), which is a master regulator of activation-induced alternative splicing in T cells. We found lnc-PPP2R1B knockdown or HNRNPLL knockdown decreased transcript-201 of Protein Phosphatase 2A, Regulatory Subunit A, Beta Isoform (PPP2R1B) while increased transcript-203 of PPP2R1B, and did not affect transcript-202/204/206. PPP2R1B is a constant regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2 (PP2A), which activates Wnt/ß-catenin pathway by removing phosphorylation and stabilization of ß-catenin and translocation into nucleus. The transcript-201 retained exon 2 and 3, compared to transcript-203. And it was reported the exon 2 and 3 of PPP2R1B were one part of B subunit binding domain on A subunit in PP2A trimer, and therefore retaining exon 2 and 3 promised formation and enzyme function of PP2A. Finally, lnc-PPP2R1B promoted ectopic osteogenesis in vivo. Conclusively, lnc-PPP2R1B mediated alternative splicing of PPP2R1B through retaining exon 2 and 3 by interacting with HNRNPLL and then promoted osteogenesis, which may facilitate an in-depth understanding of function and mechanism of lncRNAs in osteogenesis. Lnc-PPP2R1B interacted with HNRNPLL, and regulated alternative splicing of PPP2R1B through retaining exon 2 and 3, which preserved enzyme function of PP2A and enhanced dephosphorylation and nuclear translocation of ß-catenin, thereby promoting Runx2 and OSX expression and then osteogenesis. And it provided experimental data and potential target for promoting bone formation and bone regeneration.

RESUMO

As the Human Microbiome Project (HMP) progresses, the relationship between microbes and human health has been receiving increasing attention. A growing number of reports support the correlation between cancer and microbes. However, most studies have focused on bacteria, rather than fungal communities. In this study, we studied the alteration in lung mycobiome in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using metagenomic sequencing and qPCR. The higher fungal diversity and more complex network were observed in the patients with NSCLC. In addition, Alternaria arborescens was found as the most relevant fungus to NSCLC, and the enrichment of it in cancerous tissue was also detected. This study proposes that the changes in fungal communities may be closely related to lung cancer, and provides insights into further exploration the relationship between lung cancer and fungi.

RESUMO

Tumor recurrence and bacterial infection are common problems during bone repair and reconstruction after bone tumor surgery. In this study, silver-anchored MoS2 nanosheets (Ag@PMoS2) were synthesized by in situ reduction, then a composite polymer scaffold (Ag@PMoS2/PGA) with sustained antitumor and antibacterial activity was successfully constructed by selective laser sintering technique. In the Ag@PMoS2 nanostructures, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were sandwiched between adjacent MoS2 nanosheets (MoS2 NSs), which restrained the restacking of the MoS2 NSs. In addition, the MoS2 NSs acted as steric hindrance layers, which prevented the aggregation of Ag NPs. More importantly, MoS2 NSs can provide a barrier layer for Ag NPs, hindering Ag NPs from reacting with the external solution to prevent its quick release. The results showed that Ag@PMoS2/PGA scaffolds have stronger photothermal effect and antitumor function. Meanwhile, the Ag@PMoS2/PGA scaffolds also demonstrated slow control of silver ion (Ag+) release and more efficient long-term antibacterial ability. Besides, composite scaffolds have been proved to kill the MG-63 cells by inducing apoptosis and inhibit bacterial proliferation by upregulating the level of bacterial reactive oxygen species. This kind of novel bifunctional implants with antitumor and antibacterial properties provides better choice for the artificial bone transplantation after primary bone tumor resection.

RESUMO

The differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts is a key link in the treatment of bone defects and other orthopedic diseases. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, an important post-transcriptional modification, is a methylation that occurs at the N6 site of RNA adenylate. The modification plays a regulatory role in the growth and development of biological individuals, the directional differentiation of stem cells and the occurrence of diseases. It is involved in various processes of the fate decision of stem cells. And it regulates the development and constant renewal of bone and keeps bone homeostasis by controlling and maintaining the balance between osteogenesis and adipogenesis. Meanwhile, it also affects the progress of orthopedic-associated diseases such as degenerative osteoporosis and bone tumor. In this review, we mainly summarize the new findings of three key molecules including Writers, Erasers and Readers which regulate m6A modification, and the emerging role of m6A modification in determining the fate and directed differentiation potential of stem cells, especially highlight the regulatory mechanism of osteogenic differentiation, the balance between osteogenesis and adipogenesis and the occurrence and development of bone-related diseases. It may provide some important ideas about finding new strategies to recover from bone defect and degenerative bone disease.

RESUMO

Lung is colonized by a diverse array of microbes and the lung microbiota is profoundly involved in the development of respiratory diseases. There is little knowledge about the role of lung microbiota dysbiosis in lung cancer. In this study, we performed metagenomic sequencing on bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from two different sampling methods in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and non-cancer controls. We found the obvious variation between bronchoscopy samples and lobectomy samples. Oral taxa can be found in both bronchoscopy and lobectomy samples and higher abundance of oral taxa can be found in bronchoscopy samples. Although the NSCLC patients had similar microbial communities with non-cancer controls, rare species such as Lactobacillus rossiae, Bacteroides pyogenes, Paenibacillus odorifer, Pseudomonas entomophila, Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense, fungus Chaetomium globosum et al. showed obvious difference between NSCLC patients and non-cancer controls. Age-, gender-, and smoking-specific species and EGFR expression-related species in NSCLC patients were detected. There results implicated that different lung segments have differential lung microbiome composition. The oral taxa are found in the lobectomy samples suggesting that oral microbiota are the true members of lung microbiota, rather than contamination during bronchoscopy. Lung cancer does not obviously alter the global microbial composition, while rare species are altered more than common species. Certain microbes may be associated with lung cancer progression.

RESUMO

Lung cancer is the most common cancer type around the world. Although major advances in cancer therapy, lung cancer has been the largest proportion of all cancer-related deaths. The respiratory tract contains many types of bacteria and a distinct lung microbiome in lung cancer patients was described in many studies. The specific roles of these lung microorganisms in lung cancer progression remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the effect of inhalation of bronchoalveolar fluid (BAL) in the lung cancer cell growth. The microbiome-based immune and carcinogenesis was examined in tumor-bearing mouse model. We found that inhalation of BAL collected from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients altered the lung microbiota and inhibited tumor cell growth. The inhibitory effect was due to the infiltration of CD3 and CD8+ T cells and decrease of M2 macrophages in lungs. The microbial communities of NSCLC BAL inhalation group were dominated by Pasteurella, whereas the microbial communities of non-cancer control and PBS inhalation group were dominated by Delftia. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) indicated that the genera Pasteurella, Pseudomonas, and Chryseobacterium were increased in NSCLC BAL inhalation group, while genera Delftia, Ezakiella, Blautia, Cloacibacterium, and Microvirga et al. were increased in PBS and Non-cancer group. We demonstrated a significant positive correlation between Pasteurella and cytotoxic CD8+ TIL and a negative correlation with M2 macrophages. Coriobacteriaceae was positively correlated with M2 macrophages and negatively correlated with CD8+ cells. The abundance of Pasteurella was negatively correlated with tumor cell growth. Our findings provide a promising strategy that can be used as a therapeutic vaccine for lung cancer patients.

RESUMO

Purpose: The initial step of cancer metastasis is that cancer cells acquire the capability to migrate and invade. Eph receptors comprise the largest family of receptor tyrosine and display dual role in tumor progression due to unique ephrin cis- or trans- signaling. The roles of EphB1 and its phosphorylation signaling in lung cancer remain to be elucidated. Patients and Methods: We analyzed the expression of EphB1 in both publicly available database and 60 cases of NSCLC patients with or without metastasis. The migration and invasion of lung cancer cells were assessed by a transwell assay. The activation of EphB1 signaling was assessed by western blot and real-time PCR. The EphB1 mutant was used to evaluate the effect of phosphorylation of EphB1. Results: Here, we showed that increased expression of EphB1 was detected in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) biopies compared to non-cancer controls. Significant higher expression of EphB1 in lung biopsies were found in patients with metastasis compared to non-metastatic NSCLC patients. Higher EphB1 expression was correlated with poor patient survival in lung cancer. Overexpression of EphB1 promoted the migration and invasion of lung cancer cells. On the contrast, Ephrin-B2, a transmembrane ligand for EphB1 forward signaling, inhibited migration and invasion of lung cancer cells. TGF-ß-activated Smad2 transcriptionally upregulated the endogenous expression of EphB1. Ligand-independent EphB1 promoted Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) through upregulating CDH2. Conclusion: Our results showed that the effect of EphB1 on the migration and invasion was context-specific and was dependent on EphB1 phosphorylation.

RESUMO

EGFR-TKIs such as erlotinib and gefitinib have been introduced into the first-line treatment for patients having a mutation of deletion in exon 19 or L858R missense mutations in exon 21. Almost all patients who respond to EGFR-TKIs at first place eventually develop acquired resistance after several months of therapy. The secondary mutations and bypass signaling activation are involved in the generation of the resistance. Hypoxia in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is an important factor in treatment resistance including radiotherapy, chemotherapy and EGFR-TKI therapy. In this study, the effect of hypoxic cancer microenvironment in the bypass signaling activation was investigated. We found that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) residing in the hypoxic solid cancer microenvironment highly produced molecules associated with adipocytes including adipokine leptin and IGFBPs. Leptin could induce the resistance of lung cancer cells to erlotinib through activating IGF-1R signaling. IGFBP2 counteracted the activation role of IGF-1 and induced erlotinib resistance by activating IGF-1R signaling in an IGF-1 independent manner. IGFBP2 had synergistic effect with leptin to induce erlotinib resistance. Leptin and IGFBP2 may be predictive factors for acquired resistance for EGFR-TKIs.

RESUMO

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are multipotent stromal cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types. BMSCs are chemotactically guided towards the cancer cells and contribute to the formation of a cancer microenvironment. The homing of BMSCs was affected by various factors. Disseminated tumour cells (DTCs) in distant organs, especially in the bone marrow, are the source of cancer metastasis and cancer relapse. DTC survival is also determined by the microenvironment. Here we aim to elucidate how cancer-educated BMSCs promote the survival of cancer cells at primary tumour sites and distant sites. We highlight the dynamic change by identifying different gene expression signatures in intratumoral BMSCs and in BMSCs that move back in the bone marrow. Intratumoral BMSCs acquire high mobility and displayed immunosuppressive effects. Intratumoral BMSCs that ultimately home to the bone marrow exhibit a strong immunosuppressive function. Cancer-educated BMSCs promote the survival of lung cancer cells via expansion of MDSCs in bone marrow, primary tumour sites and metastatic sites. These Ly6G+ MDSCs suppress proliferation of T cells. CXCL5, nitric oxide and GM-CSF produced by cancer-educated BMSCs contribute to the formation of malignant microenvironments. Treatment with CXCL5 antibody, the iNOS inhibitor 1400w and GM-CSF antibody reduced MDSC expansion in the bone marrow, primary tumour sites and metastatic sites, and promoted the efficiency of PD-L1 antibody. Our study reveals that cancer-educated BMSCs are the component of the niche for primary lung cancer cells and DTCs, and that they can be the target for immunotherapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Metastasis is the main cause of lung cancer mortality. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are a component of the cancer microenvironment and contribute to cancer progression. Intratumoral hypoxia affects both cancer and stromal cells. Exosomes are recognized as mediators of intercellular communication. Here, we aim to further elucidate the communication between BMSC-derived exosomes and cancer cells in the hypoxic niche. METHODS: Exosomal miRNA profiling was performed using a microRNA array. Lung cancer cells and an in vivo mouse syngeneic tumor model were used to evaluate the effects of select exosomal microRNAs. Hypoxic BMSC-derived plasma exosomal miRNAs were assessed for their capacity to discriminate between cancer patients and non-cancerous controls and between cancer patients with or without metastasis. RESULTS: We demonstrate that exosomes derived from hypoxic BMSCs are taken by neighboring cancer cells and promote cancer cell invasion and EMT. Exosome-mediated transfer of select microRNAs, including miR-193a-3p, miR-210-3p and miR-5100, from BMSCs to epithelial cancer cells activates STAT3 signaling and increases the expression of mesenchymal related molecules. The diagnostic accuracy of individual microRNA showed that plasma exosomal miR-193a-3p can discriminate cancer patients from non-cancerous controls. A panel of these three plasma exosomal microRNAs showed a better diagnostic accuracy to discriminate lung cancer patients with or without metastasis than individual exosomal microRNA. CONCLUSIONS: Exosome-mediated transfer of miR-193a-3p, miR-210-3p and miR-5100, could promote invasion of lung cancer cells by activating STAT3 signalling-induced EMT. These exosomal miRNAs may be promising noninvasive biomarkers for cancer progression.
