In this study, we initially conducted a bioinformatics analysis to investigate the differential expression of miR-6844 in HCC tissues and its impact on patient prognosis. The association between miR-6844 expression levels and clinical characteristics of HCC patients was subsequently investigated by integrating data from clinical samples. Ultimately, the impact of miR-6844 on the malignant phenotype of HCC cells and the underlying mechanisms were examined through in vitro cellular experiments. The results showed that a high expression of miR-6844 in HCC, which was associated with poor prognosis and exhibited significant correlations with intrahepatic metastasis and clinical stage among patients. The upregulation of miR-6844 promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells while suppressing apoptosis. Conversely, the downregulation of miR-6844 significantly attenuated the malignant phenotype of HCC cells. In addition, <i>HSD17B13</i> was identified as a target gene of miR-6844, and the overexpression of HSD17B13 partially counteracted the oncogenic effects induced by miR-6844 in HCC cells, otherwise the opposite.

Increased IL-17C levels are noted in psoriatic lesions, alongside IL-17's ability to diminish protein phosphatase 6 catalytic subunit (PPP6C) expression in keratinocytes. Additionally, SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 (SMURF2) facilitates the degradation of specific substrates through ubiquitination. However, the precise mechanisms of action involving IL-17C, SMURF2, and PPP6C in psoriasis remain unclear. Therefore, this study aims to delve into how IL-17C, SMURF2, and PPP6C contribute to psoriasis development. A psoriasis mice model was established using 5% imiquimod cream. And the expression of IL-17C, SMURF2, and PPP6C was tested. Further, an investigation was conducted using experimental techniques such as CCK-8, flow cytometry, colony formation assay, ELISA, qRT-PCR, western blot assay, co-immunoprecipitation, and ubiquitination assays. Employing both lentiviral transfection and plasmid transfection methods, an in-depth investigation was conducted into the contributions of IL-17C, SMURF2, and PPP6C to psoriasis. The results showed that the IL-17C, Keratin 17 and SMURF2 were increased, and PPP6C was decreased in psoriasis mice model. Further, IL-17C enhanced the cell viability of human epidermal keratinocytes (HaCaT), induced inflammatory responses, and upregulated SMURF2 and Keratin 17 expression. When SMURF2 was silenced, the effects of IL-17C on HaCaT cells were significantly inhibited. Moreover, SMURF2 interacted with PPP6C, promoting its ubiquitination and degradation. Overexpression of SMURF2 further enhanced the effects of IL-17C on HaCaT cells by targeting PPP6C. In conclusion, our study uncovered the upregulation of SMURF2 mediated by IL-17C, leading to psoriasis-like alterations in keratinocytes through the promotion of PPP6C ubiquitination. This novel finding not only provides crucial insights into the molecular mechanisms of psoriasis but also offers potential avenues for innovative therapeutic strategies targeting this mechanism.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":9806,"journal":{"name":"Cell Biology International","volume":"49 7","pages":"798-809"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143974001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shikonin, one of the ingredients extracted from the roots of <i>Lithospermum erythrorhizon</i>, has been proven to be a necrosis inducer and has an antitumour effect on many cancers. We explored the mechanism of the antitumour effect of shikonin in GC. CCK8 and clonogenic assays were used to determine the effect of shikonin on the proliferation of GC cell lines. Shikonin could induce reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid ROS, intracellular ferrous iron (Fe<sup>2+</sup>), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in GC. We also found that shikonin decreased the expression of GPX4 by suppressing GPX4 synthesis and decreasing ferritin. Furthermore, long noncoding RNA deleted in lymphocytic leukaemia 1 (DLEU1) is an oncogene in GC, and shikonin decreased DLEU1 expression in GC cells. Overexpression of DLEU1 eliminated the anticancer effect of shikonin. Mechanistically, shikonin might decrease GPX4 levels by inhibiting the DLEU1/mTOR pathway. DLEU1 was sponged with miR-9-3p, which also regulated mTOR and GPX4. A xenograft tumour model of GC was established, and shikonin treatment inhibited cell proliferation and induced ferroptosis. In conclusion, shikonin exerts its antitumour effects on GC by triggering ferroptosis, and the DLEU1/mTOR/GPX4 axis may play an essential role in shikonin-induced ferroptosis.
