英文摘要
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent of several cancers. Despite highly
active anti-retroviral therapy, Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) remains as a dominant cancer in AIDS patients. The
hallmark pathological features of KS are excessive deregulation of angiogenesis and extreme invasiveness
manifested as multifocal tumors and involvement of visceral organs. Thus, understanding the molecular basis
of KSHV-induced angiogenesis and cell invasion could serve as the basis for developing novel therapeutic
approaches. Our US-China collaborative team funded by previous cycle of the US-China Program has made
significant progresses toward this goal by 1) developing a novel model of KSHV infection of human primary
mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), in which KSHV induces angiogenesis, cell invasion, malignant
transformation and tumorigenesis closely mimicking human KS tumors;; 2) demonstrating the essential roles of
KSHV microRNAs (miRNAs) in KSHV-induced angiogenesis and cell invasion;; 3) identifying KSHV miR-K6-3p
as a pro-angiogenic miRNA that induces angiogenesis by targeting SH3 domain-binding glutamic acid-rich
protein (SH3BGR) to activate the STAT3 pathway;; and 4) demonstrating that KSHV miR-K3-5p promotes cell
invasion by targeting G-protein coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) to activate the AKT signaling. We propose to
extend these exciting discoveries with the objective to further dissect the molecular mechanisms by which
KSHV miRNAs promote tumorigenesis by inducing angiogenesis and cell invasion, and to explore the
therapeutic application of these discoveries. The central hypothesis is that KSHV encodes specific miRNAs
to activate angiogenic and invasive pathways contributing to KSHV-induced tumorigenesis, and as a result,
targeting these pathways can effectively inhibit the development of KSHV-induced cancers. We will identify
KSHV miRNAs that mediate KSHV-induced angiogenesis and define the mechanisms of action (Aim 1);;
identify KSHV miRNAs that mediate KSHV-induced cell invasion and define the mechanisms of action (Aim 2);;
delineate the roles of pro-angiogenic and pro-invasive miRNAs in the development of tumors, and in tumor
angiogenesis and invasion (Aim 3);; and explore the therapeutic application of targeting angiogenic and
invasive pathways activated by KSHV miRNAs in KSHV-induced tumorigenesis (Aim 4). This application will
further reinforce the collaborative efforts of the two US and China teams with highly complementary expertise
to accelerate the advancements of the proposed project that are otherwise difficult to achieve by the individual
laboratories. The results from this project will be highly significant and innovative because they will, for the
first time, define the functions and mechanisms of action of KSHV miRNAs in tumor angiogenesis and invasion
in a genuine KS model, and identify novel targets for developing innovative therapeutic approaches. The study
will also establish a novel paradigm of oncogenesis mediated by viral subversion of the miRNA pathway, thus
providing insights into the oncogenesis of other cancers.
