RESUMO

Metastasis is one of the key factors of treatment failure in late-stage colorectal cancer (CRC). Metastatic CRC frequently develops resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. This study aimed to identify the novel regulators from "hidden" proteins encoded by long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in tumor metastasis and chemoresistance. Methods: CRISPR/Cas9 library functional screening was employed to identify the critical suppressor of cancer metastasis in highly invasive CRC models. Western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, invasion, migration, wound healing, WST-1, colony formation, gain- and loss-of-function experiments, in vivo experimental metastasis models, multiplex immunohistochemical staining, immunohistochemistry, qRT-PCR, and RT-PCR were used to assess the functional and clinical significance of FOXP3, PRDM16-DT, HNRNPA2B1, and L-CHEK2. RNA-sequencing, co-immunoprecipitation, qRT-PCR, RT-PCR, RNA affinity purification, RNA immunoprecipitation, MeRIP-quantitative PCR, fluorescence in situ hybridization, chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assay were performed to gain mechanistic insights into the role of PRDM16-DT in cancer metastasis and chemoresistance. An oxaliplatin-resistant CRC cell line was established by in vivo selection. WST-1, colony formation, invasion, migration, Biacore technology, gain- and loss-of-function experiments and an in vivo experimental metastasis model were used to determine the function and mechanism of cimicifugoside H-1 in CRC. Results: The novel protein PRDM16-DT, encoded by LINC00982, was identified as a cancer metastasis and chemoresistance suppressor. The down-regulated level of PRDM16-DT was positively associated with malignant phenotypes and poor prognosis of CRC patients. Transcriptionally regulated by FOXP3, PRDM16-DT directly interacted with HNRNPA2B1 and competitively decreased HNRNPA2B1 binding to exon 9 of CHEK2, resulting in the formation of long CHEK2 (L-CHEK2), subsequently promoting E-cadherin secretion. PRDM16-DT-induced E-cadherin secretion inhibited fibroblast activation, which in turn suppressed CRC metastasis by decreasing MMP9 secretion. Cimicifugoside H-1, a natural compound, can bind to LEU89, HIS91, and LEU92 of FOXP3 and significantly upregulated PRDM16-DT expression to repress CRC metastasis and reverse oxaliplatin resistance. Conclusions: lncRNA LINC00982 can express a new protein PRDM16-DT to function as a novel regulator in cancer metastasis and drug resistance of CRC. Cimicifugoside H-1 can act on the upstream of the PRDM16-DT signaling pathway to alleviate cancer chemoresistance.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Early detection of colorectal neoplasms can reduce the colorectal cancer (CRC) burden by timely intervention for high-risk individuals. However, effective risk prediction models are lacking for personalized CRC early screening in East Asian (EAS) population. We aimed to develop, validate, and optimize a comprehensive risk prediction model across all stages of the dynamic adenoma-carcinoma sequence in EAS population. METHODS: To develop precision risk-stratification and intervention strategies, we developed three trans-ancestry PRSs targeting colorectal neoplasms: (1) using 148 previously identified CRC risk loci (PRS148); (2) SNPs selection from large-scale meta-analysis data by clumping and thresholding (PRS183); (3) PRS-CSx, a Bayesian approach for genome-wide risk prediction (PRSGenomewide). Then, the performance of each PRS was assessed and validated in two independent cross-sectional screening sets, including 4600 patients with advanced colorectal neoplasm, 4495 patients with non-advanced adenoma, and 21,199 normal individuals from the ZJCRC (Zhejiang colorectal cancer set; EAS) and PLCO (the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial; European, EUR) studies. The optimal PRS was further incorporated with lifestyle factors to stratify individual risk and ultimately tested in the PLCO and UK Biobank prospective cohorts, totaling 350,013 participants. RESULTS: Three trans-ancestry PRSs achieved moderately improved predictive performance in EAS compared to EUR populations. Remarkably, the PRSs effectively facilitated a thorough risk assessment across all stages of the dynamic adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Among these models, PRS183 demonstrated the optimal discriminatory ability in both EAS and EUR validation datasets, particularly for individuals at risk of colorectal neoplasms. Using two large-scale and independent prospective cohorts, we further confirmed a significant dose-response effect of PRS183 on incident colorectal neoplasms. Incorporating PRS183 with lifestyle factors into a comprehensive strategy improves risk stratification and discriminatory accuracy compared to using PRS or lifestyle factors separately. This comprehensive risk-stratified model shows potential in addressing missed diagnoses in screening tests (best NPV = 0.93), while moderately reducing unnecessary screening (best PPV = 0.32). CONCLUSIONS: Our comprehensive risk-stratified model in population-based CRC screening trials represents a promising advancement in personalized risk assessment, facilitating tailored CRC screening in the EAS population. This approach enhances the transferability of PRSs across ancestries and thereby helps address health disparity.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated a strong correlation between impaired Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) function and the advancement of tumors. As a subunit of SDH, succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C (SDHC) has been revealed to play tumor suppressive roles in several cancers, while its specific role in colorectal cancer (CRC) still needs further investigation. METHODS: Online database were utilized to investigate the expression of SDHC in colorectal cancer and to assess its correlation with patient prognosis. Cell metastasis was assessed using transwell and wound healing assays, while tumor metastasis was studied in a nude mice model in vivo. Drug screening and RNA sequencing were carried out to reveal the tumor suppressor mechanism of SDHC. Triglycerides, neutral lipids and fatty acid oxidation were measured using the Triglyceride Assay Kit, BODIPY 493/503 and Colorimetric Fatty Acid Oxidation Rate Assay Kit, respectively. The expression levels of enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were determined by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot. RESULTS: Downregulation of SDHC was found to be closely associated with a poor prognosis in CRC. SDHC knockdown promoted CRC metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. Through drug screening and Gene set enrichment analysis, it was discovered that SDHC downregulation was positively associated with the fatty acid metabolism pathways significantly. The effects of SDHC silencing on metastasis were reversed when fatty acid synthesis was blocked. Subsequent experiments revealed that SDHC silencing activated the PI3K/AKT signaling axis, leading to lipid accumulation by upregulating the expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member A2 (ALDH3A2) and reduction of fatty acid oxidation rate by suppressing the expression of acyl-coenzyme A oxidase 1 (ACOX1) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A). CONCLUSIONS: SDHC deficiency could potentially enhance CRC metastasis by modulating the PI3K/AKT pathways and reprogramming lipid metabolism.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) emerge in various organisms, ranging from viruses to humans, and play crucial regulatory roles within cells, participating in a variety of biological processes. In numerous prediction methods for miRNA-disease associations, the issue of over-dependence on both similarity measurement data and the association matrix still hasn't been improved. In this paper, a miRNA-Disease association prediction model (called TP-MDA) based on tree path global feature extraction and fully connected artificial neural network (FANN) with multi-head self-attention mechanism is proposed. The TP-MDA model utilizes an association tree structure to represent the data relationships, multi-head self-attention mechanism for extracting feature vectors, and fully connected artificial neural network with 5-fold cross-validation for model training. RESULTS: The experimental results indicate that the TP-MDA model outperforms the other comparative models, AUC is 0.9714. In the case studies of miRNAs associated with colorectal cancer and lung cancer, among the top 15 miRNAs predicted by the model, 12 in colorectal cancer and 15 in lung cancer were validated respectively, the accuracy is as high as 0.9227. CONCLUSIONS: The model proposed in this paper can accurately predict the miRNA-disease association, and can serve as a valuable reference for data mining and association prediction in the fields of life sciences, biology, and disease genetics, among others.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) arises from complex interactions between host and environment, which include the gut and tissue microbiome. It is hypothesized that epigenetic regulation by gut microbiota is a fundamental interface by which commensal microbes dynamically influence intestinal biology. The aim of this study is to explore the interplay between gut and tissue microbiota and host DNA methylation in CRC. METHODS: Metagenomic sequencing of fecal samples was performed on matched CRC patients (n = 18) and healthy controls (n = 18). Additionally, tissue microbiome was profiled with 16S rRNA gene sequencing on tumor (n = 24) and tumor-adjacent normal (n = 24) tissues of CRC patients, while host DNA methylation was assessed through whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) in a subset of 13 individuals. RESULTS: Our analysis revealed substantial alterations in the DNA methylome of CRC tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. An extensive meta-analysis, incorporating publicly available and in-house data, identified significant shifts in microbial-derived methyl donor-related pathways between tumor and adjacent normal tissues. Of note, we observed a pronounced enrichment of microbial-associated CpGs within the promoter regions of genes in adjacent normal tissues, a phenomenon notably absent in tumor tissues. Furthermore, we established consistent and recurring associations between methylation patterns of tumor-related genes and specific bacterial taxa. CONCLUSIONS: This study emphasizes the pivotal role of the gut microbiota and pathogenic bacteria in dynamically shaping DNA methylation patterns, impacting physiological homeostasis, and contributing to CRC tumorigenesis. These findings provide valuable insights into the intricate host-environment interactions in CRC development and offer potential avenues for therapeutic interventions in this disease.

RESUMO

Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) stands as a pressing global health issue, marked by the unbridled proliferation of immature cells influenced by multifaceted internal and external factors. Numerous studies have explored the intricate mechanisms of tumorigenesis in CRC, with a primary emphasis on signaling pathways, particularly those associated with growth factors and chemokines. However, the sheer diversity of molecular targets introduces complexity into the selection of targeted therapies, posing a significant challenge in achieving treatment precision. The quest for an effective CRC treatment is further complicated by the absence of pathological insights into the mutations or alterations occurring in tumor cells. This study reveals the transfer of signaling from the cell membrane to the nucleus, unveiling recent advancements in this crucial cellular process. By shedding light on this novel dimension, the research enhances our understanding of the molecular intricacies underlying CRC, providing a potential avenue for breakthroughs in targeted therapeutic strategies. In addition, the study comprehensively outlines the potential immune responses incited by the aberrant activation of signaling pathways, with a specific focus on immune cells, cytokines, and their collective impact on the dynamic landscape of drug development. This research not only contributes significantly to advancing CRC treatment and molecular medicine but also lays the groundwork for future breakthroughs and clinical trials, fostering optimism for improved outcomes and refined approaches in combating colorectal carcinoma.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is involved in many malignant tumors. This study aimed to clarify the role of the lncRNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) in CRC growth and metastasis. METHODS: Differentially expressed lncRNAs in CRC were analyzed using the Cancer Genome Atlas. Gene expression profiling interactive analysis and a comprehensive resource for lncRNAs from cancer arrays databases were used to analyze lncRNA PVT1 expression and CRC prognosis, respectively. Cell counting kit-8, wound healing, colony formation, Transwell, and immunofluorescence assays were used to evaluate CRC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), respectively. Tumor growth and metastasis models were used to explore the PVT1 effect on the growth and metastasis of CRC in vivo. RESULTS: PVT1 was highly expressed in CRC, associated with a poor prognosis of CRC, and showed good diagnostic value. Transfection of sh-PVT1 or pcDNA3.1-PVT1 reduced or increased the proliferation, wound healing rate, colony formation, invasion, and EMT of CRC cells. PVT1 and miR-3619-5p were co-expressed in CRC cytoplasm, and PVT1 acted as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR-3619-5p to up-regulate tripartite motif containing 29 (TRIM29) expression. MiR-3619-5p overexpression and TRIM29 knockdown reduced proliferation, wound healing rate, invasion, and EMT of CRC cells. However, simultaneous PVT1 and miR-3619-5p overexpression or knockdown of miR-3619-5p and TRIM29 knockdown rescued the malignant phenotype of CRC cells. CONCLUSIONS: We first clarified the ceRNA mechanism of PVT1 in CRC, which induced growth and metastasis by sponging with miR-3619-5p to regulate TRIM29.

RESUMO

In this study, we investigated the role of LINC00520 in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. We analyzed LINC00520 expression in 15 pairs of CRC tissues and adjacent tissues using qRT-PCR, revealing significantly elevated levels in CRC tissues and cell lines. Lentivirus-mediated up/down-regulation of LINC00520 in CRC cell lines demonstrated that increased LINC00520 expression enhanced cell invasiveness, as confirmed by transwell and wound healing assays. Bioinformatics analysis identified a regulatory axis involving LINC00520, microRNA-195-3p, and NAT2. Luciferase assays confirmed direct binding between LINC00520 and microRNA-195-3p, as well as microRNA-195-3p and NAT2. Overexpression of NAT2 reversed the inhibitory effects on invasion and migration induced by LINC00520 silencing. This suggests that LINC00520, highly expressed in CRC tissues, may modulate tumor biological functions through the microRNA-195-3p/NAT2 axis. Our findings provide insights into the mechanism underlying CRC progression, highlighting the potential of LINC00520 as a therapeutic target.

RESUMO

Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses a significant global health challenge with high morbidity and mortality rates. This study investigates the role of LY6G6D, a member of the LY6/uPAR superfamily, in CRC. Employing a bioinformatic approach, we analyzed LY6G6D expression across different cancer types, compared it with known oncogenes in CRC, explored the involved genomic alterations, and assessed associated clinicopathological characteristics. LY6G6D exhibited aberrant expression, particularly elevated in CRC adenocarcinoma and highly specific to tumor tissues when compared with other oncogenes, despite its comparatively low frequency of genomic alteration. Subsequently, tumor immune infiltration analysis revealed distinct associations, primarily indicating a negative correlation, suggesting immune down-regulation. Survival analysis in context of LY6G6D was conducted with Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves, indicating a 10% risk of disease recurrence in the case of elevated expression. Additionally, we constructed a 3D protein model of LY6G6D through ab-inito approach. The protein model was validated, followed by conservation analysis and active site identification. Active site identification of LY6G6D's final predicted model revealed some similar sites that were estimated to be conserved. Target-guided drug molecules were collected and molecular docking was executed, proposing Cardigin (Digitoxin) and Manzamine A as potential therapeutic candidates. In conclusion, LY6G6D emerges as a significant biomarker for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in CRC, highlighting its multifaceted role in tumorigenesis. The proposed drugs present avenues for further investigations.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Colorectal cancer (CRC) originates from pre-existing polyps in the colon. The development of different subtypes of CRC is influenced by various genetic and epigenetic characteristics. CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) is found in about 15-20% of sporadic CRCs and is associated with hypermethylation of certain gene promoters. This study aims to find prognostic genes and compare their expression and methylation status as potential biomarkers in patients with serrated sessile adenomas/polyps (SSAP) and CRC, in order to evaluate which, one is a better predictor of disease. METHOD: This study employed a multi-phase approach to investigate genes associated with CRC and SSAP. Initially, two gene expression datasets were analyzed using R and Limma package to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Venn diagram analysis further refined the selection, revealing four genes from the Weissenberg panel with significant changes. These genes, underwent thorough in silico evaluations. Once confirmed, they proceeded to wet lab experimentation, focusing on expression and methylation status. This comprehensive methodology ensured a robust examination of the genes involved in CRC and SSAP. RESULT: This study identified cancer-specific genes, with 8,351 and 1,769 genes specifically down-regulated in SSAP and CRC tissues, respectively. The down-regulated genes were associated with cell adhesion, negative regulation of cell proliferation, and drug response. Four highly downregulated genes in the Weissenberg panel, including CACNA1G, IGF2, MLH1, and SOCS1. In vitro analysis showed that they are hypermethylated in both SSAP and CRC samples while their expressions decreased only in CRC samples. CONCLUSION: This suggests that the decrease in gene expression could help determine whether a polyp will become cancerous. Using both methylation status and gene expression status of genes in the Weissenberg panel in prognostic tests may lead to better prognoses for patients.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to evaluate the frequencies of KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutations and their possible associations with clinicopathological features in 249 Moroccan patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS: A retrospective investigation of a cohort of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues of 249 patients with CRC was screened for KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutations using Idylla™ technology and pyrosequencing. RESULTS: KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutations were revealed in 46.6% (116/249), 5.6% (14/249), and 2.4% (6/249) of patients. KRAS exon 2 mutations were identified in 87.9% of patients (102/116). KRAS G12D and G12 C were the most frequent, at 32.8% and 12.93%, respectively. Among the patients with KRAS exon 2 wild-type (wt), 27.6% (32/116) harbored additional KRAS mutations. Concurrent KRAS mutations were identified in 9.5% (11/116); including six in codon 146 (A146P/T/V), three in codon 61 (Q61H/L/R), one in codon 12 (G12 A and Q61H), and one in codon 13 (G13D and Q61 L). Among the NRAS exon 2 wt patients, 64.3% (9/14) harbored additional NRAS mutations. Concurrent NRAS mutations were identified in 28.6% (4/14) of NRAS-mutant patients. Since 3.2% wt KRAS were identified with NRAS mutations, concomitant KRAS and NRAS mutations were identified in 2.4% (6/249) of patients. KRAS mutations were higher in the >50-year-old age-group (P = .031), and the tumor location was revealed to be significantly associated with KRAS mutations (P = .028) predominantly in left colon (27.5%) and colon (42.2%) locations. NRAS mutations were most prevalent in the left colon (42.8%) and in well-differentiated tumors (64.2%). CONCLUSION: Detection of KRAS mutations, particularly the G12 C subtype, may be significant for patients with CRC and has possible therapeutic implications. However, rare KRAS concomitant mutations in CRC patients suggest that each individual may present distinct therapeutic responses. KRAS testing alongside the identification of other affected genes in the same patient will make the treatments even more personalized by contributing more accurately to the clinical decision process. Overall, early diagnosis using novel molecular techniques may improve the management of CRC by providing the most efficient therapies for Moroccan patients.

RESUMO

The study aimed to develop a quantitative colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique using the phenol red indicator (QLAMP-PhR) for detecting Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) levels in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and healthy individuals. QLAMP-PhR assays were conducted on 251 stool samples specific for the Fn FadA gene. Six primers were synthesized and utilized with master mix reagents, and a phenol red indicator was employed to enhance the QLAMP-PhR technique. A standard quantitative analysis curve was generated using a logarithmic function (absorbance vs. concentration) by serially diluting the copy number of genomic DNA templates (Fn ATCC25586). The CRC group exhibited a significantly higher abundance of Fn compared to the healthy control group (P < 0.001). These findings suggest that the QLAMP-PhR technique effectively identifies Fn specifically by its gene for the key virulence factor FadA. Additionally, ideas for developing a real-time QLAMP-PhR test were presented. Compared to the traditional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, QLAMP-PhR offers several advantages including rapidity, simplicity, specificity, sensitivity, and cost-effectiveness method that can quantitatively screen for Fn presence in normal populations. The QLAMP-PhR method represents a sensitive and specific amplification assay for the rapid detection of the Fn pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to report the application of QLAMP-PhR for detecting FadA in Fn.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Circular RNA (circRNAs) have been found to play major roles in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the functions of circ_0008345 (transcribed by PTK2) in regulating CRC development remain undefined. In this study, we aimed to explore the roles and underlying mechanisms of circ_0008345 in CRC. METHODS: RNase R-treated total cellular RNA was used to verify the circular structure of circ_0008345, and a subcellular fractionation assay was performed to detect the subcellular localization of circ_0008345. RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase assays were used to verify the binding relation between microRNA (miR)-182-5p and circ_0008345 and/or CYP1A2. Colony formation assay, EdU, and Transwell assays were performed to detect the biological behavior of CRC cells in vitro, and CRC cells were injected into mice to observe the tumor formation. m6A immunoprecipitation was used to detect the m6A modification of circ_0008345 in CRC cells. RESULTS: Circ_0008345, upregulated in CRC tissues and cells, was mainly present in the cytoplasm. Circ_0008345 bound to miR-182-5p, and miR-182-5p targeted CYP1A2, an oncogene in CRC. The colony formation, mobility, EdU-positive cell rate in vitro, and tumor growth in mice were inhibited after the knockdown of circ_0008345. However, the suppressing effects of sh-circ_0008345 on CRC and CYP1A2 expression were significantly reversed after further knockdown of miR-182-5p. METTL3 was the m6A modifier mediating circ_0008345 expression, and the suppression of METTL3 reduced the expression of circ_0008345. CONCLUSIONS: METTL3-dependent m6A methylation upregulated circ_0008345, which blocked the inhibitory effect of miR-182-5p on CYP1A2, thereby exacerbating the malignant phenotype of CRC cells.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Cross-talk among biological pathways is essential for normal biological function and plays a significant role in cancer progression. Through integrated network analysis, this study explores the significance of pathway cross-talk in colorectal cancer (CRC) development at both the pathway and gene levels. METHODS: In this study, we integrated the gene expression data with domain knowledge to construct state-dependent pathway cross-talk networks. The significance of the genes involved in pathway cross-talk was assessed by analyzing their association with cancer hallmarks, disease-gene relation, genetic alterations, and survival analysis. We also analyzed the gene regulatory network to identify the dysregulated genes and their role in CRC progression. RESULTS: Cross-talk was observed between immune-related pathways and pathways associated with cell communication and signaling. The PTPRC gene was identified as a mediator, facilitating interactions within the immune system and other signaling pathways. The rewired interactions of ITGA7 were identified as influential in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in CRC. This study also highlighted the crucial link between cell communication and vascular smooth muscle contraction pathway in CRC progression. The survival analysis of identified gene clusters showed their significant prognostic value in distinguishing high-risk from low-risk CRC groups, and L1000CDS2 revealed seven potential drug molecules in CRC. Nine dysregulated genes (CTNNB1, EP300, JUN, MYC, NFKB1, RELA, SP1, STAT1, and TP53) emerge as transcription factors acting as common regulators across various pathways. CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the crucial role of pathway cross-talk in CRC progression and identified the potential prognostic biomarkers and potential drug molecules.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The heterogeneity of tumor endothelial cells (TECs) hinders the efficacy of antiangiogenic therapies (AATs). Only a small percentage of angiogenic TECs are considered effective targets for AATs. Immunomodulatory ECs (IMECs), as a newly focused functional subgroup of endothelial cells (ECs), are being evaluated for their ability to regulate tumor immune balance and influence existing AATs. METHODS: Based on single-cell transcriptome data from colorectal cancer in a publicly available database, we conducted a wide array of bioinformatic approaches to study EC subsets that meet the IMECs definition. Our investigation encompassed the gene expression signatures of these subsets, cellular composition differences, cell-cell interactions. RESULTS: Two subsets that meet the IMECs definition were found in tumors and para-cancerous tissues. Combined with the results of gene ontological analysis and interaction with CD4+ T cells, we found that IMECs can present MHC-II antigens to mature CD4+ T cells. There were differences in the level of interaction between IMECs and different types of mature CD4+ T cell subsets. In addition, IMEC subsets had different expression levels of angiogenesis related genes. The angiogenesis score of IMECs decreased after patients received immunotherapy. IMEC subsets do not depend on a single proangiogenic receptor and are involved in regulating angiogenesis, which may reduce the efficacy of AATs. The adverse effects of specific IMEC subsets on AATs were validated in the RNA-seq dataset of the bevacizumab treatment group. CONCLUSION: Our study suggests the potential MHC-II antigen presentation capacity of IMECs and the enhanced angiogenesis characteristics within tumors. The function of IMECs in the vascular network may have a potentially adverse effect on AATs. Controlling the functional properties of IMECs may be a new angle for tumor therapy.

RESUMO

Chemotherapy is a crucial treatment for colorectal tumors. However, its efficacy is restricted by chemoresistance. Recently, Golgi dispersal has been suggested to be a potential response to chemotherapy, particularly to drugs that induce DNA damage. However, the underlying mechanisms by which Golgi dispersal enhances the capacity to resist DNA-damaging agents remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated that DNA-damaging agents triggered Golgi dispersal in colorectal cancer (CRC), and cancer stem cells (CSCs) possessed a greater degree of Golgi dispersal compared with differentiated cancer cells (non-CSCs). We further revealed that Golgi dispersal conferred resistance against the lethal effects of DNA-damaging agents. Momentously, Golgi dispersal activated the Golgi stress response via the PKCα/GSK3α/TFE3 axis, resulting in enhanced protein and vesicle trafficking, which facilitated drug efflux through ABCG2. Identification of Golgi dispersal indicated an unexpected pathway regulating chemoresistance in CRC.

RESUMO

The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal association between unhealthy lifestyle style factors and the risk of colorectal cancer, with the aim of preventing the occurrence of colorectal cancer by modifying unhealthy lifestyles. A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach was employed in this study, utilizing the inverse-variance weighted method as the primary research method. This MR analysis analyzed data of 3022 colorectal cancer cases and 174,006 controls from the FinnGen database. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with unhealthy lifestyle factors were selected as instrumental variables (IVs), including two obesity-related indicators, BMI (body mass index) and WHR (waist-to-hip ratio). Four phenotypes of smoking (smoking initiation, ever smoked, smoking per day, smoking cessation) and one phenotype of alcohol consumption (drinks per week). Four phenotypes of physical activity (accelerometer-based physical activity, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, vigorous physical activity, strenuous sports or other exercises). All SNPs were obtained from published genome-wide association studies. The study found that the obesity-related indicator, higher WHR (OR = 1.38, 95% CI 1.12-1.70; P = 0.002) were associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer, and two smoking phenotypes, cigarettes per day(OR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.01-1.68; P = 0.042)and smoking initiation (OR = 3.48, 95% CI 1.15-10.55; P = 0.028), were potentially associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. However, there was no evidence to suggest that physical activities and alcohol consumption were associated with colorectal cancer (all p > 0.05). In addition, the study detected no pleiotropy (all p > 0.05). This MR analysis indicates a causal association between a higher waist-to-hip ratio and the risk of colorectal cancer and a suggestive association between smoking and the risk of colorectal cancer among Europeans. These findings contribute to the understanding of the etiology of colorectal cancer and have potential implications for its prevention.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The molecular complexity of colorectal cancer poses a significant challenge to the clinical implementation of accurate risk stratification. There is still an urgent need to find better biomarkers to enhance established risk stratification and guide risk-adapted treatment decisions. METHODS: we systematically analyzed cancer dependencies of 17 colorectal cancer cells and 513 other cancer cells based on genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens to identify colorectal cancer-specific fitness genes. A regression model was built using colorectal cancer-specific fitness genes, which was validated in other three independent cohorts. 30 published gene expression signatures were also retrieved. FINDINGS: We defined a total of 1828 genes that were colorectal cancer-specific fitness genes and identified a 22 colorectal cancer-specific fitness gene (CFG22) score. A high CFG22 score represented unfavorable recurrence and mortality rates, which was validated in three independent cohorts. Combined with age, and TNM stage, the CFG22 model can provide guidance for the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients. Analysis of genomic abnormalities and infiltrating immune cells in the CFG22 risk stratification revealed molecular pathological difference between the subgroups. Besides, drug analysis found that CFG22 high patients were more sensitive to clofibrate. INTERPRETATION: The CFG22 model provided a powerful auxiliary prediction tool for identifying colorectal cancer patients with high recurrence risk and poor prognosis, optimizing precise treatment and improving clinical efficacy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Dysregulation of enhancer transcription occurs in multiple cancers. Enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) are transcribed products from enhancers that play critical roles in transcriptional control. Characterizing the genetic basis of eRNA expression may elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying cancers. METHODS: Initially, a comprehensive analysis of eRNA quantitative trait loci (eRNAQTLs) was performed in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and functional features were characterized using multi-omics data. To establish the first eRNAQTL profiles for colorectal cancer (CRC) in China, epigenomic data were used to define active enhancers, which were subsequently integrated with transcription and genotyping data from 154 paired CRC samples. Finally, large-scale case-control studies (34,585 cases and 69,544 controls) were conducted along with multipronged experiments to investigate the potential mechanisms by which candidate eRNAQTLs affect CRC risk. RESULTS: A total of 300,112 eRNAQTLs were identified across 30 different cancer types, which exert their influence on eRNA transcription by modulating chromatin status, binding affinity to transcription factors and RNA-binding proteins. These eRNAQTLs were found to be significantly enriched in cancer risk loci, explaining a substantial proportion of cancer heritability. Additionally, tumor-specific eRNAQTLs exhibited high responsiveness to the development of cancer. Moreover, the target genes of these eRNAs were associated with dysregulated signaling pathways and immune cell infiltration in cancer, highlighting their potential as therapeutic targets. Furthermore, multiple ethnic population studies have confirmed that an eRNAQTL rs3094296-T variant decreases the risk of CRC in populations from China (OR = 0.91, 95%CI 0.88-0.95, P = 2.92 × 10-7) and Europe (OR = 0.92, 95%CI 0.88-0.95, P = 4.61 × 10-6). Mechanistically, rs3094296 had an allele-specific effect on the transcription of the eRNA ENSR00000155786, which functioned as a transcriptional activator promoting the expression of its target gene SENP7. These two genes synergistically suppressed tumor cell proliferation. Our curated list of variants, genes, and drugs has been made available in CancereRNAQTL ( http://canernaqtl.whu.edu.cn/#/ ) to serve as an informative resource for advancing this field. CONCLUSION: Our findings underscore the significance of eRNAQTLs in transcriptional regulation and disease heritability, pinpointing the potential of eRNA-based therapeutic strategies in cancers.

RESUMO

Introduction. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths, closely linked to the intestinal microbiota and bile acid metabolism. Secondary bile acids, like deoxycholic and lithocholic acid, are associated with increased CRC risk due to their disruption of vital cellular functions. In contrast, isoallolithocholic acid (isoalloLCA) shows potential health benefits, highlighting the complex role of bile acids in CRC. A specific primer set was previously developed to amplify homologs of the 5α-reductase gene (5ar), which are involved in the biosynthesis of isoalloLCA, thereby enabling the estimation of abundance of 5ar (5ar levels) in the intestine.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. We hypothesized that 5ar levels in the intestine are associated with CRC.Aim. This study aimed to investigate intestinal 5ar levels and compare them across different stages of the adenoma-carcinoma sequence, providing insights into novel strategies for monitoring CRC risk.Methodology. DNA was extracted from intestinal lavage fluids (ILF) collected during 144 colonoscopies. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was employed to examine the sequence of 5ar homologues, using a specific primer set on DNA from seven selected ILFs - four from carcinoma patients and three from individuals with non-neoplastic mucosa. Additionally, we used quantitative PCR (qPCR) to measure 5ar levels in all 144 DNA samples.Results. We conducted 144 colonoscopies and categorized patients according to the adenoma-cancer sequence: 52 with non-neoplastic mucosa, 69 with adenomas and 23 with carcinoma. Analysis of 292,042 NGS-derived 5ar sequences revealed the seven most prevalent amplicon sequence variants, each 254 base pairs in length. These closely matched or were identical to 5ar sequences in Bacteroides uniformis, Phocaeicola vulgatus and Phocaeicola dorei. Furthermore, qPCR analysis demonstrated significantly lower 5ar levels in the carcinoma group compared to those in the non-neoplastic mucosa group (P = 0.0004). A similar, though not statistically significant, trend was observed in the adenoma group (P = 0.0763), suggesting that 5ar levels decrease as CRC progresses.Conclusion. These findings indicate that PCR-based monitoring of 5ar levels in intestinal samples over time could provide a non-invasive, rapid and cost-effective method for assessing an increased risk of CRC.
