肿瘤细胞分化为类神经细胞及其机制研究

发布时间:2021-01-26 23:27
  肿瘤的发生被认为是处于活跃状态的正常细胞在基因错误调控后所产生的不可逆后果。同时该过程赋予了癌细胞重新分化的能力。新的证据表明,实体肿瘤细胞具有向神经细胞转化的能力。但目前,其机制尚不清楚。组蛋白和DNA修饰酶对染色质的动态调节是多种细胞命运特化的关键因素。大量的研究表明,诸多的表观遗传学因子参与到了肿瘤的发生发展当中来并在神经的发育过程中起着非常重要的作用,这其中就包括Enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)、DNA methyltransferase 1(DNMT1)、Histone deacetylase 1(HDAC1)、Lysine(K)-specificdemethylase 1A(LSD1)这四个表观遗传学蛋白因子。研究表明,包括H3K4me1/2/3、H3K27me1/2/3、H3K9ac等在内的组蛋白修饰和DNA甲基化的大量出现在维持神经干细胞干性方面起着重要作用。这类表观修饰的下降是促进神经干细胞向终端分化的重要因素。EZH2作为Polycomb repressive complex 2(PRC2)的酶活亚基,是催化H3K27me3形成、维...

    2. Materials and methods
    3. Results and conclusion
        3.1 Synergistic targeting at multiple of epigenetics modification enzymes can effectively inhibit tumor progression and promote neural-differentiation of tumors
            3.1.1 Knockdown of chromatin modification enzymes inhibits tximor progression

            3.1.3 Interactions between epigenetic modification enzymes and between the enzymes and the key signal transducers of TGF-β and Wnt pathway
            3.1.4 Combined targeting at chromatin modification enzymes efficiently inhibit tumor progression and induces neuron-like differentiation of cancer cell line
            3.1.5 Binding of epigenetic modification enzymes to promoters and chromatin modifications in the promoters are changed in cells treated with TALE

            3.1.7 Conclusion
        3.2 Knockdown of EZH2 leads to neuron-like differentiation in SW480 cells and reduce of malignancy
            3.2.1 Knockdown of EZH2, but not other epigenetic modification factors, leads to neuron-like differentiation in SW480 cells
            3.2.2 Knockdown of EZH2 downregulates protein expression of HDAC1, LSD1,DNMT1, and of P-CAT and SMAD transducers though Ub-dependent degradation way
            3.2.3 Reduced EZH2 expression enhances ubiquitination of its interaction partners
