miR-17-5p是miR-17~92家族的核心成員,是消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的促癌miRNA之一。miR-17-5p可在肝癌、結(jié)腸癌、胰腺癌等消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤中高表達,能促進消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的惡性化演進,并與患者預后不良有關(guān)。血漿miR-17-5p表達水平可用于早期診斷消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤,并可評價患者預后。靶向抑制miR-17-5p表達可為臨床治療消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤提供新的策略。
消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤;miR-17-5p;靶向治療;預后
微小RNA(miRNA)是一類長度約為22個核苷酸的內(nèi)源性非編碼RNA,可靶向調(diào)控多種癌基因或抑癌基因的表達,參與調(diào)控消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的發(fā)生、發(fā)展。miR-17~92家族是第一個被發(fā)現(xiàn)與腫瘤相關(guān)的miRNA家族,可參與調(diào)控消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的演進。miR-17~92家族成員包括miR-17-5p、miR-17-3p、miR-18a、miR-19a、miR-19b、miR-20a以及miR-92-1[1]。miR-17-5p是該家族的核心成員,可在多種惡性腫瘤組織中異常表達,尤其是消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤,如肝癌、胃癌、食管癌等。本文結(jié)合文獻就miR-17-5p與消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤關(guān)系的研究進展作一綜述。
miR-17-5p在肝癌組織中的異常表達與其惡性生物學行為及患者預后明顯相關(guān)。Peng等[2]研究發(fā)現(xiàn),抑癌基因INTS6可競爭性結(jié)合miR-17-5p,對肝癌的發(fā)生起保護性作用。Tayebi等[3]研究證實,肝癌細胞Huh7過表達miR-17-5p既可促進肝癌細胞的增殖、生長、遷移,還可抑制抑癌基因E2F1的表達。Yang等[4]研究認為,miR-17-5p通過激活MAPK并誘導HSP27磷酸化,提高肝癌細胞的遷移能力。另外,miR-17-5p還可下調(diào)抑癌基因PTEN的表達;將miR-17-5p轉(zhuǎn)染肝癌細胞并移植到裸鼠皮下成瘤,可使瘤體體積更大,血管更豐富[5]。以上研究說明miR-17-5p可促進肝癌細胞的增殖、遷移、侵襲等惡性生物學行為,促進肝癌的惡性化進展。Chen等[6]研究亦證實,在人類肝癌組織中miR-17-5p呈高表達,且其高表達與腫瘤病理分期差、血管侵襲強以及整體生存率或無病生存率低相關(guān)。Zheng等[7]研究發(fā)現(xiàn),肝癌患者術(shù)前血清miR-17-5p維持在高水平,手術(shù)后血清miR-17-5p水平下降,但復發(fā)后miR-17-5p再次升高;提示miR-17-5p可作為判斷肝癌復發(fā)的分子標志物[8,9]。
研究發(fā)現(xiàn),miR-17-5p在結(jié)腸癌組織中表達明顯上調(diào)。miR-17-5p及其靶基因E2F1參與調(diào)控結(jié)腸癌的發(fā)生并促進細胞增殖,其異常高表達與患者預后不良相關(guān)[10]。Kara等[11]研究認為,miR-17-5p可通過上調(diào)侏儒相關(guān)轉(zhuǎn)錄因子1而促進結(jié)腸癌的發(fā)生、發(fā)展。miR-17-5p還可通過抑制E2F1的表達,促進結(jié)腸癌細胞HT-29增殖;采用鹽酸小檗堿或吳茱萸堿干預HT-29細胞可靶向下調(diào)miR-17-5p的表達,將細胞周期阻遏在S期,從而抑制HT-29細胞的增殖[12]。提示miR-17-5p可促進結(jié)腸癌細胞增殖,藥物干預miR-17-5p表達可靶向治療結(jié)腸癌。另外,作為長鏈非編碼RNA的CCAT2,可通過上調(diào)結(jié)腸癌組織中miR-17-5p的表達,促進腫瘤的生長、轉(zhuǎn)移[13]。說明miR-17-5p與結(jié)腸癌的預后相關(guān),F(xiàn)ang等[14]研究亦證實此觀點。
Yu等[15]研究發(fā)現(xiàn),在胰腺癌組織中miR-17-5p同樣呈高表達,用miR-17-5p穩(wěn)定轉(zhuǎn)染胰腺癌細胞可增加癌細胞的增殖及侵襲能力。提示miR-17-5p高表達與胰腺癌的惡性程度及患者預后不良相關(guān)。Yan等[16]采用miR-17-5p抑制劑轉(zhuǎn)染胰腺癌細胞株P(guān)anc-1、BxPC-3,發(fā)現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)染后的胰腺癌細胞出現(xiàn)生長抑制、自發(fā)性凋亡,caspase-3活性和癌細胞對吉西他濱的敏感性明顯增強,且隨著miR-17-5p抑制劑用量的增加,促凋亡分子Bim表達明顯上調(diào)。說明miR-17-5p抑制劑可通過下調(diào)miR-17-5p表達,抑制胰腺癌的惡性轉(zhuǎn)化。Que等[17]研究發(fā)現(xiàn),胰腺癌患者血清miR-17-5p水平明顯高于胰腺良性腫瘤以及慢性胰腺炎患者,且胰腺癌組織miR-17-5p高表達與腫瘤轉(zhuǎn)移和臨床分期相關(guān)。有研究證實,腫瘤干細胞(CSCs)參與調(diào)控胰腺癌的發(fā)生、發(fā)展以及對化療藥物的耐藥性[17]。Cioffi等[18]研究發(fā)現(xiàn),胰腺癌CSCs過表達miR-17-5p可激活TGF-β家族中的NODAL/ACTIVIN/TGF-β1多重信號通路,靶向抑制p21、p57以及TBX3等基因表達,這一過程可降低胰腺癌CSCs的自我更新能力、在體成瘤能力以及耐藥性。此為胰腺癌的靶向治療提供了新線索,但其具體機制目前仍不清楚。
研究發(fā)現(xiàn),胃癌患者血漿miR-17-5p維持在高水平[19];胃癌組織miR-17-5p表達明顯升高,并在轉(zhuǎn)錄后通過調(diào)控p21、p53誘導核蛋白1表達,促進胃癌細胞增殖;而鼠雙微體2基因可上調(diào)胃癌組織miR-17-5p表達,并抑制p21表達,繼而促進其惡性行為[20];促增殖基因細胞因子信號負性調(diào)控因子6(SOCS6)是miR-17-5p的靶基因,miR-17-5p通過抑制SOCS6的表達,促進胃癌細胞增殖[21]。以上研究證實,胃癌組織miR-17-5p高表達可促進其惡性行為。有學者還發(fā)現(xiàn),胃癌細胞MKN-74亦高表達miR-17-5p,但腸球菌感染可下調(diào)該miRNA表達。提示胃癌細胞miR-17-5p表達改變可能與胃癌合并細菌感染相關(guān)[22]。Wang等[23]研究認為,胃癌患者血漿miR-17-5p水平與腫瘤組織分化程度低、腫瘤臨床分期高有關(guān),而高表達miR-17-5p的胃癌患者整體生存率明顯降低。提示血漿miR-17-5p水平可用于評估胃癌患者的臨床分期和預后判斷。
綜上所述,miR-17-5p可促進消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤細胞增殖、遷移和侵襲,其高表達與患者預后不良有關(guān)。目前的研究主要集中于miR-17-5p對腫瘤生物學行為的影響以及對患者預后判斷的價值,對其在消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤中發(fā)揮促癌作用的具體機制及靶向miR-17-5p治療消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的研究甚少。隨著分子生物學研究的進一步深入,miR-17-5p將在消化系統(tǒng)腫瘤的預防、早期診斷、個體化治療以及預后監(jiān)測方面發(fā)揮重要作用。
