非小細(xì)胞肺癌; T細(xì)胞因子3; 基質(zhì)金屬蛋白酶

肺癌已成為嚴(yán)重威脅人類健康與生命最常見的惡性腫瘤之一,其發(fā)病率和死亡率位居所有癌癥之首[1]。非小細(xì)胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)是肺癌的主要類型,約占肺癌的80%~85%[2]。目前放療是NSCLC的主要治療方案,但NSCLC對放療產(chǎn)生耐受是導(dǎo)致預(yù)后不良和五年生存率低的主要原因[3]。因此,尋找和研發(fā)治療NSCLC的小分子靶向藥物是亟需解決的問題,已成為治療肺癌的重要課題。

T細(xì)胞因子3(T-cell factor 3,TCF3)是經(jīng)典Wnt信號通路的效應(yīng)分子之一。早期的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)TCF3基因缺失導(dǎo)致早期胚胎發(fā)育致死,表現(xiàn)為神經(jīng)和中胚層發(fā)育缺陷[4]。TCF3過表達(dá)能刺激人皮膚毛囊隆突表皮原始祖細(xì)胞分裂并抑制細(xì)胞分化。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)TCF3與Oct4、Sox2、Nanog基因啟動子區(qū)域結(jié)合,拮抗這些基因的作用進(jìn)而抑制鼠胚胎干細(xì)胞的自我更新[5-6]。Wnt通路激活使TCF3從相應(yīng)的基因啟動子上脫離,激活靶基因轉(zhuǎn)錄從而增強(qiáng)多能干細(xì)胞的分裂活性并延遲對分化刺激的應(yīng)答[7]。最近研究表明TCF3對腎癌、乳腺癌、胚胎癌等人類腫瘤的發(fā)生起著抑制或促進(jìn)作用[8]。目前TCF3的功能在肺癌中的研究甚少[9],近新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)TCF3在肺癌病人手術(shù)切除的癌變組織及幾種NSCLC細(xì)胞系中均有表達(dá),在正常16HBE細(xì)胞中亦有表達(dá),而在癌旁組織中無表達(dá)。但TCF3對肺癌發(fā)生、發(fā)展是促進(jìn)還是抑制作用尚不清楚。本研運用siRNA干擾技術(shù)下調(diào)人肺腺癌細(xì)胞系A(chǔ)549細(xì)胞和H1299細(xì)胞中TCF3的表達(dá),體外研究下調(diào)TCF3表達(dá)對肺腺癌細(xì)胞增殖和遷移的影響及其可能的分子機(jī)制,為以TCF3為靶點研發(fā)治療肺癌的靶向藥物提供理論依據(jù)。

討 論

Wnt/β-catenin信號通路是哺乳動物細(xì)胞內(nèi)高度保守的關(guān)鍵信號通路,其與肺癌的發(fā)生發(fā)展密切相關(guān)[10]。TCF3是TCF/LEF家族的重要成員之一,是經(jīng)典Wnt/β-catenin信號通路的關(guān)鍵成分。研究表明TCF3在一些分化程度較低的惡性腫瘤中表達(dá)[11],但目前對TCF3在惡性腫瘤中的作用及機(jī)制研究較少。Lin等[11]證實TCF3可能通過下調(diào)Oct4抑制胚胎癌細(xì)胞的惡性表型。TCF3對乳腺癌組織的形成及維持癌細(xì)胞生長起著重要作用,但對乳腺癌細(xì)胞的侵襲及遷移能力無明顯影響[10]。然而,TCF3在肺癌中的作用及分子機(jī)制仍不清楚,相關(guān)的研究報道較少。

研究證實,在無Wnt信號刺激時TCF3與共阻遏因子Groucho、CtBP和HDAC等結(jié)合抑制Wnt基因轉(zhuǎn)錄[12-13];異常的Wnt信號刺激下TCF3一方面作為β-catenin依賴的轉(zhuǎn)錄激活因子促進(jìn)Wnt靶基因的轉(zhuǎn)錄激活,同時也能作為轉(zhuǎn)錄抑制因子下調(diào)Wnt靶基因的轉(zhuǎn)錄[14]。本研究結(jié)果顯示,干擾肺癌細(xì)胞系A(chǔ)549細(xì)胞和H1299細(xì)胞中的TCF3表達(dá)后,Wnt通路轉(zhuǎn)錄活性明顯降低,其下游靶基因c-Myc的表達(dá)明顯下調(diào),提示TCF3在肺癌細(xì)胞的Wnt通路中起著轉(zhuǎn)錄激活的功能??赡艿臋C(jī)制為Wnt通路激活時,大量游離的β-catenin進(jìn)入細(xì)胞核,通過與Groucho/TLE競爭結(jié)合TCF3,將TCF3轉(zhuǎn)換為轉(zhuǎn)錄激活因子[15]。我們通過MTT、克隆形成實驗證實TCF3對肺癌細(xì)胞的增殖活性的影響,結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)降低TCF3的表達(dá)使A549細(xì)胞和H1299細(xì)胞的活力和克隆形成率顯著降低。為了進(jìn)一步探討TCF3影響A549和H1299細(xì)胞增殖的原因,我們運用Annexin V-FITC/PI染色和流式細(xì)胞術(shù)進(jìn)行了細(xì)胞凋亡實驗,結(jié)果顯示干擾TCF3表達(dá)72 h后細(xì)胞的凋亡率明顯升高。推測TCF3可能通過調(diào)控Wnt通路下游勘基因c-Myc[16]等細(xì)胞凋亡相關(guān)基因而影響肺癌細(xì)胞的生長。

基質(zhì)金屬蛋白酶基因家族在腫瘤細(xì)胞轉(zhuǎn)移過程中發(fā)揮關(guān)鍵作用[17],MMP基因家族成員的表達(dá)與惡性腫瘤的高轉(zhuǎn)移活性密切相關(guān)[18]。研究證實MMP-1過表達(dá)能促進(jìn)前列腺癌的增殖和轉(zhuǎn)移[19]。本研究觀察到下調(diào)TCF3表達(dá)顯著抑制A549細(xì)胞和H1299細(xì)胞的遷移,由此我們推測TCF3可能通過調(diào)控MMP家族基因的表達(dá)影響肺癌細(xì)胞的轉(zhuǎn)移。我們在A549和H1299細(xì)胞中的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),siTCF3顯著抑制MMP-9和MMP-13蛋白的表達(dá),促進(jìn)基質(zhì)金屬蛋白酶抑制因子TIMP-1的蛋白表達(dá),提示siTCF3可能通過抑制MMP-9和MMP-13的表達(dá)抑制A549和H1299細(xì)胞的遷移能力。Western blot實驗結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)下調(diào)TCF3表達(dá)抑制Wnt蛋白的表達(dá),但是本研究沒有進(jìn)一步證實MMP-9、MMP-13和TIMP-1表達(dá)與Wnt信號通路的關(guān)系,MMP家族成員中MMP-9、MMP-13和TIMP-1是否是Wnt通路靶基因?或者M(jìn)MP通路和Wnt通路形成一種交叉網(wǎng)絡(luò)共同調(diào)控肺癌細(xì)胞轉(zhuǎn)移,這方面工作值得進(jìn)一步研究。我們的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),siTCF3顯著抑制A549和H1299細(xì)胞的增殖、遷移和誘導(dǎo)細(xì)胞凋亡,其分子機(jī)制可能通過下調(diào)Wnt通路活性以及調(diào)控MMP家族關(guān)鍵成員的表達(dá)而實現(xiàn)。提示TCF3有望成為治療肺癌的潛在靶向藥物,本研究為以TCF3為靶點研發(fā)治療肺癌的分子靶向藥物提供理論依據(jù)。

AIM: To investigate the effects of T-cell factor 3 (TCF3) expression on the growth and migratory abilities of the non-small cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC) and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS: The non-small cell lung cancer cells A549 and H1299 were transfected with siTCF3 or negative control siRNA (NCsiRNA) using Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of TCF3 at mRNA and protein levels was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. The activity of TCF3 transcription was measured using luciferase reporter gene assay. The cell viability, colony formation ability, migratory ability and apoptotic rate were monitored by MTT assay, colony formation assay, Transwell method and flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining, respectively. The protein expression levels of Wnt, c-Myc, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, MMP-13 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were detected by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with A549-NCsiRNA and H1299-NCsiRNA cells, the mRNA and protein levels of TCF3 were significantly inhibited in A549-siTCF3 and H1299-siTCF3 cells (P<0.01). The activity of TCF3 transcription and levels of c-Myc protein expression remarkably decreased as compared with NCsiRNA cells (P<0.05). The viability of A549-siTCF3 cells and H1299-siTCF3 cells cultured for 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 96 h were notably lower than that of NCsi-RNA cells (P<0.05). The colony formation ability was significantly inhibited by siTCF3 compared with NCsiRNA cells (P<0.01). The numbers of migratory A549-siTCF3 and H1299-siTCF3 cells were significantly lower than those of A549-NCsiRNA and H1299-NCsiRNA cells (P<0.05). The apoptotic rates of A549-siTCF3 cells and H1299-siTCF3 cells were notably higher than those of A549-NCsiRNA cells and H1299-NCsiRNA cells (P<0.01). Down-regulated TCF3 expression inhibited the protein expression of Wnt, decreased the protein levels of MMP-9 and MMP-13 and enhanced the protein level of TCF3. CONCLUSION: siTCF3 suppresses the abilities of growth and migration, and induces apoptosis in A549 cells and H1299 cells by down-regulating Wnt pathway and regulating expression of key MMP family genes.
