AbstractCancer metastasis is a major cause of the high mortality rate in lung cancer patients. The cytoskeletal rearrangement and degradation of extracellular matrix are required to facilitate cell migration and invasion and the suppression of these behaviors is an intriguing approach to minimize cancer metastasis. Even though Erianthridin (ETD), a phenolic compound isolated from the Thai orchid Dendrobium formosum exhibits various biological activities, the molecular mechanism of ETD for anti-cancer activity is unclear. In this study, we found that noncytotoxic concentrations of ETD (≤ 50 μM) were able to significantly inhibit cell migration and invasion via disruption of actin stress fibers and lamellipodia formation. The expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 was markedly downregulated in a dose-dependent manner after ETD treatment. Mechanistic studies revealed that protein kinase B (Akt) and its downstream effectors mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) were strongly attenuated. An in silico study further demonstrated that ETD binds to the protein kinase domain of Akt with both hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions. In addition, an in vivo tail vein injection metastasis study demonstrated a significant effect of ETD on the suppression of lung cancer cell metastasis. This study provides preclinical information regarding ETD, which exhibits promising antimetastatic activity against non-small-cell lung cancer through Akt/mTOR/p70S6K-induced actin reorganization and MMPs expression.

Abstract Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) FYVE, RhoGEF and PH domain containing 5 antisense RNA 1 (FGD5-AS1) has been reported as an oncogene in colorectal cancer, promoting its tumorgenesis. The present paper focused on searching the potential function of FGD5-AS1 in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). There are connections between the expression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 and human NSCLC tumor growth and progression. Also, the relationships between FGD5-AS1, hsa-miR-107 and mRNA fibroblast growth factor receptor like 1 (FGFRL1) are going to test their interaction in NSCLC cell lines, which may cause a series of biological behaviors of NSCLC cells. qRT-PCR analysis was conducted to test the expression of RNAs in different situation. CCK-8 experiment and clone formation assay were performed to assess proliferation of NSCLC cells. Also, connection between FGD5-AS1 and hsa-miR-107 were investigated by luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay. Rescue experiments were performed to verify the modulating relationship between FGD5-AS1, hsa-miR-107 and FGFRL1. High-level expression of FGD5-AS1 was found in NSCLC. FGD5-AS1 may promote the proliferation of NSCLC cells. Also, the combination between hsa-miR-107, FGD5-AS1 and NSCLC have been proved, which means they can play an interaction function in NSCLC cells. Thence, we concluded that lncRNA FGD5-AS1 promotes non-small cell lung cancer cell proliferation through sponging hsa-miR-107 to up-regulate FGFRL1.
