Abstract

BACKGROUND

The prognosis and survival of individuals with cetuximab-resistant colorectal cancer (CRC) remain severely impacted by therapy for this disease. The study investigated the underlying mechanisms of -mannose sensitive hemagglutinin (PA-MSHA), a type of therapeutic biological product approved in China, for cetuximab-resistant CRC.

METHODS

Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, wound healing assay and transwell assay. Massively parallel sequencing of cetuximab-resistant CRC cells with PA-MSHA treatment was used to screen the differential expression profile of miRNAs. The directly target gene of miR-7-5p was revealed by dual luciferase assay. Apoptosis and invasion related proteins were detected by Western blot.

RESULTS

PA-MSHA could successfully stop the migrating and invading of cetuximab-resistant CRC cells while also inducing apoptosis. Tumor-bearing experiments in nude mice showed that PA-MSHA slowed tumor growth and lengthened mouse life. The sequencing data showed that miR-7-5p was considerably upregulated after PA-MSHA treatment. As anticipated, miR-7-5p overexpression improved PA-MSHA's anticancer properties both and . The target gene of miR-7-5p was confirmed to be Akt3 by dual luciferase assay, and Akt3 silencing undid the inhibition of PA-MSHA efficacy caused by miR-7-5p downregulation. Additionally, PA-MSHA therapy significantly reduced the activation of Wnt-β-catenin pathway, and Akt3 expression was positively linked with several important Wnt-β-catenin pathway genes, including Wnt and CTNNB1. Finally, we discovered that patients with CRC who had developed cetuximab resistance or disease progression had remarkably decreased serum miR-7-5p levels.

CONCLUSIONS

PA-MSHA controlled the miR-7-5p/Akt3/Wnt-β-catenin pathway to provide substantial efficacy against cetuximab-resistant CRC.

摘要

背景

西妥昔单抗耐药的结直肠癌（CRC）患者的预后和生存仍受到该疾病治疗的严重影响。本研究调查了中国批准的一种治疗性生物制品——甘露糖敏感血凝素（PA-MSHA）用于治疗西妥昔单抗耐药CRC的潜在机制。

方法

采用细胞计数试剂盒-8（CCK-8）检测、流式细胞术、伤口愈合检测和Transwell检测来检测细胞增殖、凋亡、迁移和侵袭。对经PA-MSHA处理的西妥昔单抗耐药CRC细胞进行大规模平行测序，以筛选miRNA的差异表达谱。通过双荧光素酶检测揭示miR-7-5p的直接靶基因。通过蛋白质免疫印迹法检测凋亡和侵袭相关蛋白。

结果

PA-MSHA可成功阻止西妥昔单抗耐药CRC细胞的迁移和侵袭，同时诱导细胞凋亡。裸鼠荷瘤实验表明，PA-MSHA可减缓肿瘤生长并延长小鼠寿命。测序数据显示，PA-MSHA处理后miR-7-5p显著上调。正如预期的那样，miR-7-5p过表达在体内和体外均增强了PA-MSHA的抗癌特性。通过双荧光素酶检测证实miR-7-5p的靶基因是Akt3，并且Akt3沉默消除了miR-7-5p下调对PA-MSHA疗效的抑制作用。此外，PA-MSHA治疗显著降低了Wnt-β-连环蛋白通路的激活，并且Akt3表达与包括Wnt和CTNNB1在内的几个重要的Wnt-β-连环蛋白通路基因呈正相关。最后，我们发现发生西妥昔单抗耐药或疾病进展的CRC患者血清miR-7-5p水平显著降低。
