Olive Mill

Several diet-derived compounds have been reported to exert antioxidant, anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic effects in numerous cancers and could be beneficial in cancer prevention. Olive oil production involves the generation of an aqueous phase defined as olive mill wastewater (OMWW), a polluting effluent rich in soluble polyphenols. Here, we assessed the cancer preventive properties exerted by a purified extract of OMWW (A009) for its activity on lung cancer cell lines. Hydroxytyrosol, the most abundant polyphenol present in our A009 extracts, was used as reference molecule in the assays performed. Extracts from OMWW from two different olive oil cultivars were used. We found that the A009 extracts limit lung cancer cell proliferation in a dose and time dependent manner. These effects were associated with the induction of apoptosis. A009 extracts were effective in inhibiting adhesion capabilities on a fibronectin layer accompanied with a reduction in their ability to generate invasive sprouts in a Matrigel layer. The production of chemokine CXCL12 and CXCR4 receptor were reduced by treatment with the extracts. Also, A009 interfered with the production of proangiogenic and pro-inflammatory VEGF, CXCL8, and CCL2 (as detected by FACS analysis) in the lung cell lines. A009 extracts were able to decrease STAT3 phosphorylation in lung cancer cells. Our results show that A009 extracts reduced activities related to tumor cell behavior in lung cancer cell lines, suggesting that they could have a potential cancer preventive role.

Anoikis Resistance ◽  
Protein Levels

Anoikis is a type of apoptosis induced by cell detachment from the extracellular matrix (ECM), which removes mislocalized cells. Acquisition of anoikis resistance is critical for cancer cells to survive during circulation and, thus, metastasize at a secondary site. Although the sensitization of cancer cells to anoikis is a potential strategy to prevent metastasis, the mechanism underlying anoikis resistance is not well defined. Although family with sequence similarity 188 member B (FAM188B) is predicted as a new deubiquitinase (DUB) member, its biological function has not been fully studied. In this study, we demonstrated that FAM188B knockdown sensitized anoikis of lung cancer cell lines expressing WT-EGFR (A549 and H1299) or TKI-resistant EGFR mutant T790M/L858R (H1975). FAM188B knockdown using si-FAM188B inhibited the growth of all three human lung cancer cell lines cultured in both attachment and suspension conditions. FAM188B knockdown resulted in EGFR downregulation and thus decreased its activity. FAM188B knockdown decreased the activities of several oncogenic proteins downstream of EGFR that are involved in anoikis resistance, including pAkt, pSrc, and pSTAT3, with little changes to their protein levels. Intriguingly, si-FAM188B treatment increased EGFR mRNA levels but decreased its protein levels, which was reversed by treatment with the proteasomal inhibitor MG132, indicating that FAM188B regulates EGFR levels via the proteasomal pathway. In addition, cells transfected with si-FAM188B had decreased expression of FOXM1, an oncogenic transcription factor involved in cell growth and survival. Moreover, FAM188B downregulation reduced metastatic characteristics, such as cell adhesion, invasion, and migration, as well as growth in 3D culture conditions. Finally, tail vein injection of si-FAM188B-treated A549 cells resulted in a decrease in lung metastasis and an increase in mice survival in vivo. Taken together, these findings indicate that FAM188B plays an important role in anoikis resistance and metastatic characteristics by maintaining the levels of various oncogenic proteins and/or their activity, leading to tumor malignancy. Our study suggests FAM188B as a potential target for controlling tumor malignancy.

Abstract Background Under normal physiological conditions, insulin exhibited a series of important biological functions. However, more and more evidence indicate that insulin is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors. Recent studies have shown that insulin is also closely related to the occurrence and development of lung cancer. However, until now, the cellular properties of insulin/insulin receptors on lung cancer have not been fully revealed. Methods Indirect immunofluorescence, western-blot and other techniques have been used to identify the biological activity of insulin on lung cancer cell lines. Results The biological activity of insulin is closely related to its cell behavior. therefore we used lung cancer cell lines as a model to explore the cellular behavior and properties of insulin/IR in the current study, and the results showed that the IR can internalize into lung cancer cells, and it can also transport into the nucleus under insulin treatment. further study showed nuclear-localized IR could promote the proliferation of lung cancer cells. Taken together, this study shows that IR’s nuclear localization is closely related to cell proliferation. Conclusions This work lays the foundation for further research on relationship between insulin and the occurrence and development of lung cancer.

AbstractNon-canonical inflammasome activation that recognizes intracellular lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes pyroptosis, the inflammatory death of innate immune cells. The role of pyroptosis in innate immune cells is to rapidly eliminate pathogen-infected cells and limit the replication niche in the host body. Whether this rapid cell elimination process of pyroptosis plays a role in elimination of cancer cells is largely unknown. Our earlier study demonstrated that a multi-functional secreted protein, secretoglobin (SCGB) 3A2, chaperones LPS to cytosol, and activates caspase-11 and the non-canonical inflammasome pathway, leading to pyroptosis. Here we show that SCGB3A2 exhibits marked anti-cancer activity against 5 out of 11 of human non-small cell lung cancer cell lines in mouse xenographs, while no effect was observed in 6 of 6 small cell lung cancer cell lines examined. All SCGB3A2-LPS-sensitive cells express syndecan 1 (SDC1), a SCGB3A2 cell surface receptor, and caspase-4 (CASP4), a critical component of the non-canonical inflammasome pathway. Two epithelial-derived colon cancer cell lines expressing SDC1 and CASP4 were also susceptible to SCGB3A2-LPS treatment. TCGA analysis revealed that lung adenocarcinoma patients with higher SCGB3A2 mRNA levels exhibited better survival. These data suggest that SCGB3A2 uses the machinery of pyroptosis for the elimination of human cancer cells via the non-canonical inflammasome pathway, and that SCGB3A2 may serve as a novel therapeutic to treat cancer, perhaps in combination with immuno and/or targeted therapies.
