Abstract PAX8 is identified as a regulator in the pathogenesis of human tumors and an indicator of the prognosis for patients. However, the role of PAX8 on proliferation in gastric cancer have not been studied. This study was aimed to explore the expression pattern of PAX8 in gastric cancer, and investigate the effect of PAX8 on the proliferation of gastric cancer cells. PAX8 and SOX13 were identified to be synchronously upregulated in primary gastric cancer in human gastric cancer tissues and the gastric cancer datasets of TCGA, and gastric cancer patients of combined high PAX8 and SOX13 expression showed poor prognosis. Furthermore, SOX13 can mediate PAX8 and its targeted genes, Aurora B and Cyclin B1, expression in AGS and MGC803 cell lines. Flow cytometry and EdU incorporation assays showed that silencing PAX8 can block the cell cycle of gastric cancer cell in G1 phase and SOX13 expression can rescue the arrested proliferative process induced by PAX8 silenced in CCK8 and colony formation assays. Thus, combined SOX13 and PAX8 expression regulate the proliferation of gastric cancer cells, and both SOX13 and PAX8 play an oncogene function in gastric cancer.

Abstract Background Gastric cancer is a highly aggressive malignant tumor with heterogeneity and is still a global health problem. The present study aimed to investigate the role of Cyclin I-like (CCNI2) in the regulation of phenotype and tumorigenesis, as well as its underlying mechanisms. Method The expression profile of CCNI2 in gastric cancer was determined based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and immunohistochemical staining. The effects of altered CCNI2 expression on the biological phenotypes such as proliferation, clone formation, apoptosis and migration of gastric cancer cell lines BGC-823 and SGC-7901 were investigated. Mice xenograft models were established to reveal the role of CCNI2 knockdown on tumorigenesis. The potential mechanism of CCNI2 regulating gastric cancer was preliminarily determined by RNA sequencing. Result CCNI2 was abundantly expressed in gastric cancer and was positively correlated with pathological stage. Knockdown of CCNI2 slowed down the malignant progression of gastric cancer by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation, increasing the susceptibility to apoptosis and suppressing migration. Moreover, downregulation of CCNI2 attenuated the ability of gastric cancer cells to form tumors in mice. Additionally, there was an interaction between CCNI2 and transcription factor hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) in SGC-7901 cells. Knockdown of CCNI2 alleviated the promoting effects of HDGF overexpression in gastric cancer cells. Conclusions CCNI2 promoted the progression of human gastric cancer through HDGF, which drew further interest regarding its clinical application as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract Objective: To study the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CRYM-AS1 in human gastric cancer. Methods: Expression levels of CRYM-AS1 in cell lines and clinical tissues were examined by RT-qPCR. The association between CRYM-AS1 levels and clinicopathological parameters / survival rates of gastric cancer patients was analyzed.Cell functional experiments including MTT assay, glucose consumption / lactate production / ATP production detection were performed to examine the role of CRYM-AS1 in cell aerobic glycolysis and cell proliferation of gastric cancer cells. Subcellular fractionation location detection, western blot, RIP (RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation) assay, CHIP (Chromatin immunoprecipitation) assay and BSP (Bisulfite sequencing PCR) assay were carried out to explore the molecular mechanism of CRYM-AS1 in gastric cancer cells.Results: CRYM-AS1 was low expressed in gastric cancer cells and tissues compared with normal gastric cells and tissues respectively. CRYM-AS1 was negatively correlated with TNM staging, tumor size and overall survival (OS) rate in gastric cancer patients. CRYM-AS1 inhibited gastric cancer cell aerobic glycolysis and cell proliferation. CRYM-AS1 directly bound to EZH2 and mediated the CRYM promoter methylation and consequently negatively regulated the expression of CRYM. Forced expression of CRYM rescued the decreased aerobic glycolysis and cell proliferation induced by CRYM-AS1 in gastric cancer cells.Conclusion: CRYM-AS1 was an important biomarker and could be used for human gastric cancer treatment.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can be synthesized in mammalian cells by cystathionineγ-lyase (CSE) and/or cystathionineβ-synthase (CBS). Both CSE and CBS are expressed in rat gastric tissues but their role in human gastric neoplasia has been unclear. The aims of the present study were to detect CSE and CBS proteins in human gastric cancer and determine the effect of exogenous NaHS on the proliferation of gastric cancer cells. We found that both CSE and CBS proteins were expressed in human gastric cancer cells and upregulated in human gastric carcinoma mucosa compared with those in noncancerous gastric samples. NaHS induced apoptosis of gastric cancer cells by regulating apoptosis related proteins. Also, NaHS inhibited cancer cell migration and invasion. An antigastric cancer role of H2S is thus indicated.

Background. Paeoniflorin has been reported to exert antitumor effects on human cancers. However, the role of paeoniflorin in gastric cancer and the underlying molecular mechanism are unelucidated. Therefore, we determined whether paeoniflorin could exhibit anticancer activity in gastric cancer cells. Methods. MTT was used to measure the viability of cells after paeoniflorin treatment. FACS was performed to examine cell apoptosis. Wound healing and transwell invasion assays were conducted to examine cell migratory and invasive activities. Western blotting was used to explore the mechanism by which paeoniflorin exerted tumor suppressive effects. Results. We found that paeoniflorin suppressed cell growth, enhanced apoptosis, and reduced cell invasion. Notably, we showed that paeoniflorin inhibited the expression of TAZ in gastric cancer cells. The overexpression of TAZ abrogated the antitumor activity of paeoniflorin in gastric cancer cells. In contrast, the downregulation of TAZ promoted the tumor suppressive effects of paeoniflorin treatment. Conclusion. Hence, targeting TAZ with paeoniflorin could be a novel approach for the treatment of human gastric cancer.

Introduction Whether and how mesoderm posterior 1 (MESP1) plays a role in the proliferation of gastric cancer cells remain unclear. Methods The expression of MESP1 was compared in 48 human gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Knockdown of MESP1 was performed to investigate the role of MESP1 in the proliferation and apoptosis of BGC-823 and MGC-803 gastric cancer cells. Knockdown of alternative reading frame (ARF) was performed to study the role of ARF in the inhibitory effect of MESP1 knockdown on cell proliferation in gastric cancer cells. Mouse subcutaneous xenograft tumor model bearing BGC-823 cells was used to investigate the role of MESP1 in the growth of gastric tumor in vivo. The effect of seven active ingredients from T. terrestris on MESP1 expression was tested. The anti-cancer effect of diosgenin was confirmed in gastric cancer cells. MESP1 dependence of the anti-cancer effect of diosgenin was confirmed by MESP1 knockdown. Results MESP1 was highly expressed in human gastric cancer tissues ( p < 0.05). MESP1 knockdown induced apoptosis and up-regulated the expression of ARF in gastric cancer cells ( p < 0.05). Knockdown of ARF attenuated the anti-cancer effect of MESP1 knockdown ( p < 0.05). In addition, MESP1 knockdown also suppressed tumor growth in vivo ( p < 0.05). Diosgenin inhibits both mRNA and protein expression of MESP1 ( p < 0.05). MESP1 knockdown attenuated the anti-cancer effect of diosgenin ( p < 0.05). Conclusions MESP1 promotes the proliferation of gastric cancer cells via inhibiting ARF expression. Diosgenin exerts anti-cancer effect through inhibiting MESP1 expression in gastric cancer cells.
