ABSTRACT
Background:
Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is the most common type of gastric cancer. In this study, the functions and potential mechanisms of hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase trifunctional multienzyme complex subunit beta (HADHB) in STAD were explored.Methods:
Different bioinformatics analyses were performed to confirm HADHB expression in STAD. HADHB expression in STAD tissues and cells was also evaluated using western blot, qRT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry. Further, the viability, proliferation, colony formation, cell cycle determination, migration, and wound healing capacity were assessed, and the effects of HADHB on tumour growth, cell apoptosis, and proliferation in nude mice were determined. The upstream effector of HADHB was examined using bioinformatics analysis and dual luciferase reporter assay. GSEA was also employed for pathway enrichment analysis and the expression of Hippo-YAP pathway-related proteins was detected.Results:
The expression of HADHB was found to be low in STAD tissues and cells. The upregulation of HADHB distinctly repressed the viability, proliferation, colony formation, cell cycle progression, migration, invasion, and wound healing of HGC27 cells, while knockdown of HADHB led to opposite effects. HADHB upregulation impeded tumour growth and cell proliferation, and enhanced apoptosis in nude mice. KLF4, whose expression was low in STAD, was identified as an upstream regulator of HADHB. KLF4 upregulation abolished the HADHB knockdown-induced tumour promoting effects in AGS cells. Further, HADHB regulates the Hippo-YAP pathway, which was validated using a pathway rescue assay. Low expression of KLF4 led to HADHB downregulation in STAD.Conclusion:
HADHB might function as a tumour suppressor gene in STAD by regulation the Hippo-YAP pathway.
