In this regard, immunomodulation via Neem Leaf Glycoprotein (NLGP), a plant-derived glycoprotein immunomodulator is explored. Since former reports have proven immune dependent-tumor restriction of NLGP across multiple tumor models, we hypothesized that NLGP might reprogram and rectify TEX to target CSCs successfully. In this study, we report that NLGP's therapeutic administration significantly reduced TEX-associated CSC virulence in in vivo B16-F10 melanoma tumor model. A similar trend was observed in in vitro generated TEX and B16-F10/MCF7 coculture setups. NLGP rewired CSCs by downregulating clonogenicity, multidrug resistance phenotypes and PDL1, OCT4, and SOX2 expression. Cell cycle analysis revealed that NLGP educated-TEX efficiently pushed CSCs out of quiescent phase (G0G1) into synthesis phase (S), supported by hyper-phosphorylation of G0G1-S transitory cyclins and Rb proteins. This rendered quiescent CSCs susceptible to S-phase-targeting chemotherapeutic drugs like 5-fluorouracil (5FU). Consequently, combinatorial treatment of NLGP and 5FU brought optimal CSC-targeting efficiency with an increase in apoptotic bodies and proapoptotic BID expression. Notably a strong nephron-protective effect of NLGP was also observed, which prevented 5FU-associated toxicity. Furthermore, Dectin-1-mediated NLGP uptake and subsequent alteration of Notch1 and mTOR axis were deciphered as the involved signaling network. This observation unveiled Dectin-1 as a potent immunotherapeutic drug target to counter T-cell exhaustion. Cumulatively, NLGP immunotherapy alleviated exhausted CD8+ T-cell-induced CSC aggravation.

We previously found that biosynthesis and secretion of neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) was elevated in colorectal cancer cells. In this study, we discovered that the HTR2B receptor of 5-HT was highly expressed in colorectal cancer tumor tissues, which was further identified as a strong risk factor for colorectal cancer prognostic outcomes. Both pharmacological blocking and genetic knocking down HTR2B impaired migration of colorectal cancer cell, as well as the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Mechanistically, HTR2B signaling induced ribosomal protein S6 kinase B1 (S6K1) activation via the Akt/mTOR pathway, which triggered cAMP-responsive element-binding protein 1 (CREB1) phosphorylation (Ser 133) and translocation into the nucleus, then the phosphorylated CREB1 acts as an activator for ZEB1 transcription after binding to CREB1 half-site (GTCA) at ZEB1 promoter. As a key regulator of EMT, ZEB1, therefore, enhances migration and EMT process in colorectal cancer cells. We also found that HTR2B-specific antagonist (RS127445) treatment significantly ameliorated metastasis and reversed EMT process in both HCT116 cell tail-vein-injected pulmonary metastasis and CT26 cell intrasplenic-injected hepatic metastasis mouse models.</p><p><strong>Implications: </strong>These findings uncover a novel regulatory role of HTR2B signaling on colorectal cancer metastasis, which provide experimental evidences for potential HTR2B-targeted anti-colorectal cancer metastasis therapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":19095,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cancer Research","volume":" ","pages":"538-554"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139913149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
