Anti-tumor analysis of the RIG-I agonist in vitro and in vivo
Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), a key pattern recognition receptor (PRR) detecting cytosolic 5′-triphosphorylated double-stranded RNA (5′-ppp dsRNA), mediated antitumor immunity. Here, we evaluated RIG-I agonists as potential antitumor agents. To analyze the anti-tumor efficacy, we engineered a panel of 5′-PPP-modified stem-loop-structured RNAs leveraging the non-coding sequence of SARS-CoV-2. Through systematic screening, nCoV-L emerged as a potent RIG-I agonist that induced death in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), pulmonary carcinomas, and colorectal cancer (CRC) in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that nCoV-L elicited mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, supporting its potential as a broad-spectrum antitumor agent.
期刊介绍:
Open access, online only, peer-reviewed international journal in the Life Sciences, established in 2014 Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports (BB Reports) publishes original research in all aspects of Biochemistry, Biophysics and related areas like Molecular and Cell Biology. BB Reports welcomes solid though more preliminary, descriptive and small scale results if they have the potential to stimulate and/or contribute to future research, leading to new insights or hypothesis. Primary criteria for acceptance is that the work is original, scientifically and technically sound and provides valuable knowledge to life sciences research. We strongly believe all results deserve to be published and documented for the advancement of science. BB Reports specifically appreciates receiving reports on: Negative results, Replication studies, Reanalysis of previous datasets.
