肿瘤干细胞:
是一类未分化的肿瘤细胞,能够进行自我更新和多向分化,具有高度致瘤性,是促进肿瘤侵袭转移的原动力,在肿瘤发生、发展、侵袭、转移、耐药及复发等过程中,均发挥重要作用,提示治愈肿瘤的关键可能在于根除肿瘤干细胞。
Smad4:TGF-β/Smads信号通路在多种细胞生理过程中发挥作用,近年来,越来越多的研究关注其在肿瘤中的作用。Smad4作为Smads的重要成员,Smad4表达缺失与乳腺癌、胃癌等多种恶性肿瘤相关,尤其是在肿瘤细胞的上皮-间质转化及侵袭过程中发挥至关重要的调节作用。

 

摘要
背景:
miRNA-196a是新近发现的与乳腺癌、宫颈癌等多种肿瘤相关的microRNAs生物靶分子。研究证实,miRNA-196a-5p在胃癌细胞株和胃癌组织中均表达增加,然而,关于miRNA-196a-5p在胃癌干细胞中的功能和机制研究甚少。
目的:分析miRNA-196a-5p在胃癌干细胞侵袭中的作用及机制。
方法:流式细胞术分选胃癌BGC-823细胞株中的CD44+细胞(即胃癌干细胞),qRT-PCR检测miRNA-196a-5p表达,Transwell实验检测细胞侵袭能力;参照Lipofectamine 2000转染试剂说明书的操作步骤,将miRNA-196a-5p inhibitor(即miRNA-196a-5p INH)转染至细胞中;双荧光素酶报告基因实验验证miRNA-196a-5p对Smad4基因的调控作用;Western blotting实验检测上皮-间质转化相关蛋白(E-cadherin、N-cadherin和Vimentin)和Smad4蛋白表达。
结果与结论:①miRNA-196a-5p在胃癌干细胞中表达增加(P < 0.05);②抑制miRNA-196a-5p表达后,能够降低胃癌干细胞的侵袭能力(P < 0.05),增加E-cadherin蛋白表达(P < 0.05),降低N-cadherin和Vimentin蛋白表达(P均< 0.05),增加Smad4蛋白表达(P < 0.05);③结果表明,miRNA-196a-5p通过调控Smad4表达在胃癌干细胞上皮-间质转化和侵袭过程中发挥重要作用,miRNA-196a-5p具有作为胃癌治疗靶标的潜能。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: miRNA-196a is a recently discovered microRNAs biotarget molecule associated with various tumors such as breast cancer and cervical cancer. Studies have confirmed that miRNA-196a-5p is upregulated in both gastric cancer cell line and gastric cancer tissues. However, little is known about the function and mechanism of miRNA-196a-5p in gastric cancer stem cells.
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the function of miRNA-196a-5p in the invasion of gastric cancer stem cells and to investigate the possible mechanism.
METHODS: CD44+ gastric cancer stem cells were sorted from the gastric cancer BGC-823 cell line using flow cytometry. The expression of miRNA-196a-5p was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and the cell invasion was determined by Transwell assay. With reference to the specification of Lipofectamine 2000m kit, miRNA-196a-5p inhibitor (miRNA-196a-5p INH) was transferred into the sorted cells. Regulation of Smad4 gene by the miRNA-196a-5p was validated by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition-associated proteins (E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Vimentin) and Smad4 protein was evaluated by western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The miRNA-196a-5p was up-regulated in the gastric cancer stem cells (P < 0.05). Inhibiting the miRNA-196a-5p expression could reduce the invasion ability of gastric cancer stem cells (P < 0.05), increase the E-cadherin protein expression (P < 0.05), decrease the N-cadherin and Vimentin protein expression (P < 0.05), and enhance the Smad4 protein expression (P < 0.05). Therefore, miR-196a-5p has a key role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition and invasion by targeting Smad4 in the gastric cancer stem cells. miR-196a-5p may serve as a potential target for gastric cancer therapy.
