ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: As a phosphorylated protein, NOLC1 is mainly located in the nucleus and is highly expressed in a variety of tumors, participating in the regulation of cell proliferation and aging. This study further investigated the role of NOLC1 in colorectal cancer tumors, aiming to provide sufficient scientific evidence for the clinical treatment of colorectal cancer. METHODS: We used TCGA, GEO, TNMplot, GEPIA, and other databases to explore the expression level of NOLC1 in colorectal cancer patients, as well as the correlation between the clinical characteristics of colorectal cancer patients and their expression, and conducted the prognostic analysis. Immunohistofluorescence (IHF) staining verified the analytical results. Subsequently, KEGG and GO enrichment analysis was used to identify the potential molecular mechanism of NOLC1 promoting the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer. The influence of NOLC1 expression on the immune microenvironment of colorectal cancer patients was further investigated using the TIMER database. GDSC database analysis was used to screen out possible anti-colorectal cancer drugs against NOLC1. Finally, we demonstrated the effect of NOLC1 on the activity and migration of colorectal cancer cells by Edu Cell proliferation assay and Wound Healing assay in vitro. RESULTS: Our results suggest that NOLC1 is overexpressed in colorectal cancer, and that overexpression of NOLC1 is associated with relevant clinical features. NOLC1, as an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients, can lead to a poor prognosis of colorectal cancer. In addition, NOLC1 may be associated with MCM10, HELLS, NOC3L, and other genes through participating in Wnt signaling pathways and jointly regulate the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer under the influence of the tumor microenvironment and many other influencing factors. Related to NOLC1: Selumetinib, Imatinib, and targeted drugs such as Lapatinib have potential value in the clinical application of colorectal cancer. NOLC1 enhances the proliferation and migration of colorectal cancer cells. CONCLUSIONS: High expression of NOLC1 as an independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with colorectal cancer. NOLC1 enhances the proliferation and migration of colorectal cancer cells. Further studies and clinical trials are needed to confirm the role of NOLC1 in the development and progression of colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT

AT-rich interaction domain 1A (ARID1A) is a tumor suppressor gene that mutates in several cancer types, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and colorectal cancer (CRC). In colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), the low expression of ARID1A was reported but the molecular reason is unclear. We noticed that ARID1A low expression was associated with increased levels of miR-185 in the COAD. Therefore, this study aims to explore ncRNA-dependent mechanism that regulates ARID1A expression in COAD regarding miR-185. The expression of ARID1A was tested in COAD cell line under the effect of miR-185 mimics compared with inhibitor. The molecular features associated with loss of ARID1A and its association with tumor prognosis were analyzed using multi-platform data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to identify potential signaling pathways associated with ARID1A alterations in colon cancer. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that a low level of ARID1A was closely related to low survival rate in patients with COAD. Results showed that inhibiting miR-185 expression in the COAD cell line significantly restored the expression of ARID1A. Further, the increased expression of ARID1A significantly improved the prolonged overall survival of COAD. We noticed that there is a possible relationship between ARID1A high expression and tumor microenvironment infiltrating immune cells. Furthermore, the increase of ARID1A in tumor cells enhanced the response of inflammatory chemokines. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that ARID1A is a direct target of miR-185 in COAD that regulates the immune modulations in the microenvironment of COAD.
