This is further obscured by the fact that no known driver mutations of Sprouty-2 have been reported. Therefore, for the first time, alterations of DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) were investigated to better understand the regulation of Sprouty-2 in CRC. Methods: Sprouty-2 transcript expression was evaluated in CRC patient samples and Sprouty-2 protein expression was evaluated in CRC cells. The DNA methylation status spanning Sprouty-2 gene was evaluated using combined bisulfite restriction analysis (COBRA). The 5hmC status in the Sprouty-2 gene body and promoter was analyzed using previously performed nano-hmC-seal data from colon cancers and adjacent normal colonic mucosa. Publicly available RNA-seq and methylation data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were extracted from tumors from CRC patients. Results: Variable Sprouty-2 mRNA expression was observed among CRC patient tumors compared to adjacent normal appearing colonocytes. For the first time, differential methylation between adjacent normal colon and CRC samples was identified in 2 CTCF binding sites and in the promoter near the Transcriptional Start Site (TSS) of Sprouty-2, where the 5mC status in 1 of the CTCF binding sites correlated with transcript abundance. In CRC, this is the first study to reveal increases of 5hmC deposition in the gene body and promoter region of Sprouty-2 compared to normal colon. In metastatic CRC, an inverse correlation of increased Sprouty-2 promoter 5mC and decreased mRNA expression was found in patients registered in TCGA. Conclusions: In terms of tumor growth, epigenetic aberrations including Sprouty-2 promoter hypomethylation and increased 5hmC may play a prominent role in positive regulation of Sprouty-2 in CRC. In metastatic stages of CRC, increases in Sprouty-2 promoter 5mC may downregulate Sprouty-2 expression, which may ultimately label Sprouty-2 as a tumor suppressor in CRC.

However, the exact mechanisms of their anticancer actions remain unclear. We have studied the novel castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) treatment with statins. Using microarrays, we discovered up-regulation of ATG4B (Autophagy related 4 homolog B) in PC-3 cells after simvastatin treatment. In this study, we evaluated the effects of simvastatin focusing on androgen-independent prostate cancer cells. Methods:PC-3, LNCaP-LA, 22RV-1-LA (taht were derived from LNCaP and 22RV1 cells and cultured in 10% charcoal-stripped fetal bovine serum for 3 months), and DU145 human prostate cancer cell lines were used. Microarrays were performed using PC-3 untreated or administered with simvastatin (0 uM versus 5 uM). Proliferation, migration, and invasion were evaluated using MTS assay, Migration assay, and Invasion assay, respectively. The increases of autophagy were detected by western blot using microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC-3) antibody and confirmed by a fluorescence microscope with staining autophagosomes by autophagy detection kit (abcam, Cambridge, UK). Results:Using microarrays, we discovered up-regulation of ATG4B in PC-3 cells after simvastatin treatment. Simvastatin inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of PC-3, LNCaP-LA, 22RV1-LA and DU145 cells. The expression level of LC-3 was up-regulated by simvastatin in PC-3, LNCaP-LA, 22RV1-LA and DU145 cells. In PC-3 cells treated with statin, a significant increase in autophagosomes was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. The expression of LC-3 and autophagosomes were increased in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusions:It was found that statin administration enhances autophagy induction in a prostate cell line. We plan to study the combined effect with other drugs that induce autophagy. We would like to develop CRPC treatment by inducing autophagy cell death.
