This study examined the relationship between Cel’s antivascular and antitumor effects and sphingolipids. CCK-8 assay, transwell assay, Matrigel, PCR-array/RT-PCR/western blotting/immunohistochemistry assay, ELISA and HE staining were used to detect cell proliferation, migration and invasion, adhesion and angiogenesis, mRNA and protein expression, S1P production and tumor morphology. The results showed that Cel could inhibit proliferation, migration or invasion, adhesion and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and MDA-MB-231 cells by downregulating the expression of degenerative spermatocyte homolog 1 (DEGS1). Transfection experiments showed that downregulation of DEGS1 inhibited the above processes and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) production of HUVECs and MDA-MB-231 cells, while upregulation of DEGS1 had the opposite effects. Coculture experiments showed that HUVECs could promote proliferation, migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells through S1P/sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) signaling pathway, while Cel inhibited these processes in MDA-MB-231 cells induced by HUVECs. Animal experiments showed that Cel could inhibit tumor growth in nude mice. Western blotting, immunohistochemistry and ELISA assay showed that Cel downregulated the expression of DEGS1, CD146, S1PR1-3 and S1P production. These data confirm that DEGS1/S1P signaling pathway may be related to the antivascular and antitumor effects of cel.","PeriodicalId":8885,"journal":{"name":"Biological Chemistry","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138572049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially substructures such as filopodia, lamellipodia and their underlying cytoskeleton are difficult to resolve with diffraction limited microscopy. Light microscopy techniques, which surpass the diffraction limit such as stimulated emission depletion microscopy, often require expensive setups and specially trained personnel rendering them inaccessible to smaller research groups. Lately, the invention of expansion microscopy (ExM) has enabled super-resolution imaging with any light microscope without the need for additional equipment. Apart from the necessary resolution, investigating OPC growth cones comes with another challenge: Imaging the topography of membranes, especially label- and contact-free, is only possible with very few microscopy techniques one of them being scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM). We here present a new imaging workflow combining SICM and ExM, which enables the visualization of OPC growth cone nanostructures. We correlated SICM recordings and ExM images of OPC growth cones captured with a conventional widefield microscope. This enabled the visualization of the growth cones' membrane topography as well as their underlying actin and tubulin cytoskeleton.","PeriodicalId":8885,"journal":{"name":"Biological Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":"31-41"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89716832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to explore the mechanism of inhibiting migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells by methionine restriction (MR). The human gastric cancer cell lines AGS and MKN45 cultured with complete medium (CM) or medium without methionine were used for in vitro experiments. MKN45 cells were injected tail vein into BALB/c nude mice and then fed with normal diet or methionine diet for in vivo experiments. MR treatment decreased cell migration and invasion, increased E-cadherin expression, decreased N-cadherin and p-p65 expressions, and inhibited nuclear p65 translocation of AGS and MKN45 cells when compared with CM group. MR treatment increased IκBα protein expression and protein stability, and decreased IκBα protein ubiquitination level and TRIM47 expression. TRIM47 interacted with IκBα protein, and overexpression of TRIM47 reversed the regulatory effects of MR. TRIM47 promoted lung metastasis formation and partially attenuated the effect of MR on metastasis formation in vivo compared to normal diet group mice. MR reduces TRIM47 expression, leads to the degradation of IκBα, and then inhibits the translocation of nuclear p65 and the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.","PeriodicalId":8885,"journal":{"name":"Biological Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":"257-265"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72013332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

VSMCs communicate with endothelial cells through extracellular vesicles (EVs) carrying cargos, including microRNAs. To understand the molecular mechanisms through which PDGF-stimulated pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) interact with pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs) under pathological conditions, we investigated the crosstalk between PASMCs and PAECs via extracellular vesicle miR-409-5p under PDGF stimulation. miR-409-5p expression was upregulated in PASMCs upon PDGF signaling, and it was released into EVs. The elevated expression of miR-409-5p was transported to PAECs and led to their impaired function, including reduced NO release, which consequentially resulted in enhanced PASMC proliferation. We propose that the positive regulatory loop of PASMC-extracellular vesicle miR-409-5p-PAEC is a potential mechanism underlying the proliferation of PASMCs under PDGF stimulation. Therefore, miR-409-5p may be a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of vascular diseases, including pulmonary arterial hypertension.","PeriodicalId":8885,"journal":{"name":"Biological Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":"203-215"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71410451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we demonstrated extracellular cathepsin L-mediated cleavage of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and identified the cleavage site in the extracellular domain after R224. To further evaluate the relevance of this cleavage, we cloned and expressed a truncated version of EGFR, starting at G225, in HeLa cells. We confirmed the constitutive activation of the truncated protein in the absence of ligand binding and determined possible changes in intracellular signalling. Furthermore, we determined the effect of truncated EGFR protein expression on HeLa cell viability and response to the EGFR inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) erlotinib and monoclonal antibody (mAb) cetuximab. Our data reveal the nuclear localization and phosphorylation of EGFR and signal trancducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in cells that express the truncated EGFR protein and suggest that these phenomena cause resistance to EGFR inhibitors.","PeriodicalId":8885,"journal":{"name":"Biological Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":"283-296"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"61560302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
