项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The broad, long-term objectives of this proposal are to evaluate the global potential of amino acid transporter ATB/ASCT2 as a selective therapeutic target in human hepatocellular carcinoma {HCC) and to elucidate the signaling mechanisms linking it to liver cancer cell growth and survival. Currently, there are no effective therapies for this cancer and its incidence continues to rise in the United States. ASCT2 is expressed in all human liver cancers examined to date, but is not expressed in normal human hepatocytes. Suppression of ASCT2 expression by inducible antisense RNA in the SK-Hep HCC cell line leads to cell death by the intrinsic apoptotic pathway via a mechanism that is attenuated by osmotic cell swelling. Therefore, the working hypothesis is that ASCT2, via its role in substrate delivery and cellular hydration (swelling) is linked to mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)- and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)- dependent survival signaling pathways, respectively, that impinge upon proteins responsible for apoptotic suppression in all human liver cancer ceils. The aims of this proposal thus addresses the universality and mechanisms linking ASCT2 to hepatoma survival: Specific Aim 1: To evaluate the impact of ASCT2 post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) on the growth and viability of six human hepatoma cell lines, representing a broad spectrum of differentiated phenotypes. Research Plan: Several individual candidate small interfering RNA (siRNA) specific to ASCT2 will be transfected into all six human hepatoma cell lines, and assessed for effects on growth, viability, ASCT2 expression and
caspase activation, compared to appropriate control siRNA. Subsequently, adenoviral DMA vectors encoding for control and effective siRNA's (ideally 3) will be constructed and employed in signaling experiments. Off-target siRNA effects in ASCT2 silenced cells will be assessed by examination of a select panel of mRNA, microarray analysis and by the ability of reintroduced ASCT2 to "rescue" them. Alternative/corroborative approaches include use of PTGS methods such as morpholino antisense oligonucleotides or an inducible antisense RNA system. Specific Aim 2: To elucidate the signaling pathways linking ASCT2 silencing to hepatoma apoptosis. Research Plan: Signaling via PI3K-linked (PKB/Akt) and amino acid-dependent (mTOR) pathways as they relate to the pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member Bad, or other "mitochondrial gatekeepers", will be investigated pre- and post-ASCT2 silencing through the use of selective biochemical inhibitors and western blot analyses. Putative links established through this approach will be later confirmed by the expression of dominant negative or constitutively active variants of Akt or other signaling proteins. The impact of ASCT2 silencing on cell volume will be assessed by flow cytometry analysis, and reciprocally, the ability of artificial cell swelling and shrinkage to modulate these signaling pathways will also be investigated to better understand the mechanistic link between amino acid transporter function and cancer cell survival.
描述(由申请人提供):本提案的广泛、长期目标是评价氨基酸转运蛋白ATB/ASCT 2作为人肝细胞癌(HCC)选择性治疗靶点的全球潜力,并阐明将其与肝癌细胞生长和存活联系起来的信号传导机制。目前,这种癌症没有有效的治疗方法,其发病率在美国继续上升。ASCT 2在迄今为止检查的所有人肝癌中表达,但在正常人肝细胞中不表达。在SK-Hep HCC细胞系中通过诱导型反义RNA抑制ASCT 2表达导致细胞死亡,这是通过渗透性细胞肿胀减弱的机制通过内在凋亡途径实现的。因此,工作假设是ASCT 2通过其在底物递送和细胞水合(溶胀)中的作用分别与雷帕霉素(mTOR)和磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶(PI 3 K)依赖性存活信号传导途径的哺乳动物靶相关联,其冲击负责所有人肝癌细胞中的凋亡抑制的蛋白质。 因此,该提案的目的是解决ASCT 2与肝癌生存的普遍性和机制:具体目标1:评估ASCT 2转录后基因沉默(PTGS)对六种人肝癌细胞系的生长和活力的影响,代表广泛的分化表型。研究计划:将对ASCT 2特异性的几种单独的候选小干扰RNA(siRNA)转染到所有六种人肝癌细胞系中,并评估对生长、活力、ASCT 2表达和增殖的影响。
caspase激活,与适当的对照siRNA相比。随后,将构建编码对照和有效siRNA(理想地为3种)的腺病毒DMA载体并用于信号传导实验。ASCT 2沉默细胞中的脱靶siRNA效应将通过检查一组选定的mRNA、微阵列分析和通过重新引入ASCT 2“拯救”它们的能力来评估。替代/确证方法包括使用PTGS方法,例如吗啉代反义寡核苷酸或诱导型反义RNA系统。具体目标2:阐明ASCT 2沉默与肝癌细胞凋亡之间的信号通路。研究计划:将通过使用选择性生化抑制剂和蛋白质印迹分析,在ASCT 2沉默前后研究通过PI 3 K连接(PKB/Akt)和氨基酸依赖性(mTOR)途径的信号传导,因为它们与促凋亡Bcl-2家族成员Bad或其他“线粒体守门人”相关。通过这种方法建立的推定联系将在以后通过Akt或其他信号传导蛋白的显性负性或组成型活性变体的表达来证实。将通过流式细胞术分析评估ASCT 2沉默对细胞体积的影响,并且还将研究人工细胞肿胀和收缩调节这些信号传导途径的能力,以更好地理解氨基酸转运蛋白功能与癌细胞存活之间的机制联系。
