Résumé
In this study, the regulatory effect of the overexpression of polarity protein Lgl2 on the nuclear export ofinfluenza A virus nucleoprotein in infected cells was investigated. A stable Tet-Off inducible MDCK cell lineexpressing a fusion protein comprising Lgl2 and an enhanced yellow fluorescent protein were used. TCID50analysis and neuraminidase activity analysis revealed that replication of influenza A virus was inhibited in Lgl2overexpressing cells. By immunofluorescence microscopical observation at different time point post virusinfection, a retention of NP in cellular nucleus was found in Lgl2 overexpressing cells. Compared with normalMDCK cells, change in claudin-1 distribution between cell contacts caused by Lgl2 overexpression impairedthe barrier function of tight junction. These results suggest that changes in cell polarity induced by Lgl2overexpressing will affect virus NP transportation.
Résumé
Objective: To clarify the role of discs large homolog 5 (DLG5) in the diagnosis and prognosis of renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC) by studying the expression of DLG5 in the clinical tissue of ccRCC. Methods: DLG5 expression in ccRCC tissues and normal renal tissue was measured by using the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Database and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) Database. The correlation of DLG5 expression with the prognosis and clinicopathological parameters of ccRCC was analyzed by LinkedOmics and GEPIA. The interactions protein network of DLG5 was predicted by String-DB. Results: Compared with that of the normal kidney tissues, DLG5 expression was significantly upregulated in the ccRCC tissues (P<0.05). The high DLG5 expression was an independent prognostic factor affecting the overall survival rate of ccRCC based on TCGA (P=2.997×10-5). Furthermore, DLG5 expression had a positive correlation with the TNM stage, ethnicity, tumor purity, year-to-birth, PCNA (P=1.1×10-6, R=0.19), and RAD1 (P=5.7×10-6, R=0.18) expression of ccRCC. Conclusion: In ccRCC, the high expression of DLG5 is a significant index of poor prognosis. Therefore, DLG5 can be a potential biomarker for predicting the metastasis, recurrence and prognosis of the patients.
Résumé
Epithelial architecture is formed in tissues and organs when groups of epithelial cells are organized into polarized structures.The epithelial function as well as signaling across the epithelial layer is organized by polarity proteins.Epithelial polarity complexes form and regulate epithelial integrity.Polarity proteins establish and maintain cell polarity,regulate tight junctions and adherens junctions.Polarity proteins act as neoplasms suppressors in mammals and interact with oncogenes,disrupt cell polarity,induce tumorigenesis.Therefore,polarity mechanisms of epithelial cell could therapeutic targets for clinical therapy.
