ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Tumor necrosis factor alpha induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) is reportedly to have significant implications for autophagy regulation in various cancers. The current study aimed to decipher the role and mechanism of TNFAIP3 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) by modulating autophagy.METHODS:
Information pertaining to the differential expression and prognostic role of TNFAIP3 in DLBCL was gleaned from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The TNFAIP3 expression levels in human DLBCL cells were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and colony formation assays were employed to determine cell proliferation. Transwell assay and flow cytometry were applied to detect cell migration and apoptosis, respectively. Immunofluorescence and transmission electron microscope were used for the assessment of cell autophagy. The levels of apoptotic markers (caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-3, Bcl-2 Associated X (Bax), and B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)), autophagy indicators (the ratio of microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3 II and I (LC3II/LC3I), Sequestosome (p62)), and pathway proteins (toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88), Transcription Factor NF-Kappa-B P65 Subunit (p65), and phosphorylated-p65 (p-p65)) were assessed via Western blotting. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect Ki67 expression in tumor tissues.RESULTS:
TNFAIP3 expression in DLBCL samples was downregulated, correlating with poor prognosis. TNFAIP3 expression was also downregulated in DLBCL cells. It was found that TNFAIP3 impeded cell proliferation and migration, and enhanced apoptosis of OCI-LY3 cells. Intervention with autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA) markedly reversed apoptosis of OCI-LY3 cells induced by TNFAIP3. Besides, TNFAIP3 induced autophagy via modulating the TLR4/MyD88/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. In vivo experiments showed that TNFAIP3 expression in DLBCL was downregulated, and upregulation of TNFAIP3 could inhibit tumor growth.CONCLUSION:
TNFAIP3 inhibits DLBCL progression by inducing TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway-mediated autophagy.Palabras clave
