Fatty acid amide hydrolase inhibitors confer anti-invasive and antimetastatic effects on lung cancer cells.
This study addressed the impact of two FAAH inhibitors (arachidonoyl serotonin [AA-5HT], URB597) on A549 lung cancer cell metastasis and invasion. LC-MS analyses revealed increased levels of FAAH substrates (AEA, 2-AG, OEA, PEA) in cells incubated with either FAAH inhibitor. In athymic nude mice FAAH inhibitors were shown to elicit a dose-dependent antimetastatic action yielding a 67% and 62% inhibition of metastatic lung nodules following repeated administration of 15 mg/kg AA-5HT and 5 mg/kg URB597, respectively. In vitro, a concentration-dependent anti-invasive action of either FAAH inhibitor was demonstrated, accompani...

Epigenetic silencing of miR-218 by the lncRNA CCAT1, acting via BMI1, promotes an altered cell cycle transition in the malignant transformation of HBE cells induced by cigarette smoke extract.
Abstract Cigarette smoking is the strongest risk factor for the development of lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. However, the molecular mechanisms leading to lung cancer are largely unknown. A long-noncoding RNA (lncRNA), CCAT1, regarded as cancer-associated, has been investigated extensively. Moreover, the molecular mechanisms of lncRNAs in regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) induced by cigarette smoke remain unclear. In the present investigation, cigarette smoke extract (CSE) caused an altered cell cycle and increased CCAT1 levels and decreased miR-218 levels in human bronchial epithelial (HB...

lncRNA-SNHG7 promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion and inhibits apoptosis of lung cancer cells by enhancing the FAIM2 expression.
Authors: She K, Huang J, Zhou H, Huang T, Chen G, He J Abstract There is growing evidence that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are related to cancer development. In the present study, we found that the expression levels of lncRNA-SNHG7 mRNA and protein obviously increased in lung cancer tissues compared to adjacent non-cancerous tissues. Simultaneously, the expression levels of Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (FAIM2) also increased in lung cancer tissues. In addition, lncRNA-SNHG7 was of positive relevance with FAIM2 in human lung cancer tissues. Silence of lncRNA‑SNHG7 by siRNA repressed the level of FAIM2 p...

Study on the molecular mechanism of Rac3 on regulating autophagy in human lung cancer cells.
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the degree of acetylation of HSPA5 increased and it was dissociated from the receptor, EIF2AK3, on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, thus causing the endoplasmic reticulum stress response. Endoplasmic reticulum stress activated the expression of the ATF4 protein, upregulated the level of DDIT4, inhibited the MTOR signaling pathway, and caused cellular autophagy.

Cationic liquid crystalline nanoparticles for the delivery of synthetic RNAi-based therapeutics.
Authors: Gentile E, Oba T, Lin J, Shao R, Meng F, Cao X, Lin HY, Mourad M, Pataer A, Baladandayuthapani V, Cai D, Roth JA, Ji L Abstract RNA interference (RNAi)-based therapeutics have been used to silence the expression of targeted pathological genes. Small interfering RNA (siRNAs) and microRNA (miRNAs) inhibitor have performed this function. However, short half-life, poor cellular uptake, and nonspecific distribution of small RNAs call for the development of novel delivery systems to facilitate the use of RNAi. We developed a novel cationic liquid crystalline nanoparticle (CLCN) to efficiently deliver synthetic s...

Synergistic Effect of Notch-3-Specific Inhibition and Paclitaxel in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Cells Via Activation of The Intrinsic Apoptosis Pathway.
CONCLUSIONS These results indicate a synergistic effect of Notch-3-specific inhibition and paclitaxel through alteration of the intrinsic apoptosis pathway, which was involved in Notch-3-induced chemoresistance in NSCLC cells, and GSI inhibited Notch-3-induced chemoresistance in a concentration-dependent manner. This approach that combines Notch-3-specific inhibition and paclitaxel would be likely to apply in NSCLC. PMID: 28769027 [PubMed - in process]

Chemo-biologic combinatorial drug delivery using folate receptor-targeted dendrimer nanoparticles for lung cancer treatment
Co-administration of functionally distinct anti-cancer agents has emerged as an efficient strategy in lung cancer treatment. However, a specially designed drug delivery system is required to co-encapsulate functionally different agents, such as a combination of siRNA and chemotherapy, for targeted delivery. We developed a folic acid (FA) -conjugated polyamidoamine dendrimer (Den) -based nanoparticle (NP) system for co-delivery of siRNA against HuR mRNA (HuR siRNA) and cis-diamine platinum (CDDP) to folate receptor- α (FRA) -overexpressing H1299 lung cancer cells.

YdjC chitooligosaccharide deacetylase homolog induces keratin reorganization in lung cancer cells: involvement of interaction between YDJC and CDC16.
In this study, we investigated the role and molecular mechanisms of YdjC chitooligosaccha- ride deacetylase homolog (YDJC) in sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC)-induced phosphorylation and reorganization of K8, and migration and invasion (SPC-induced events). SPC induced expression of YDJC in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Gene silencing of YDJC suppressed SPC-induced events. YDJC overexpression induced the SPC-induced events. YDJC deacetylase dominant negative mutant (YDJCD13A) did not induce SPC-induced events. YDJC siRNA reduced ERK activation and overexpression of YDJC induced ERK activation. The siRNA of ERK1 or ER...

Role of the NRP-1-mediated VEGFR2-independent pathway on radiation sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer cells
ConclusionsWe demonstrated that when VEGFR2 was inhibited, NRP-1 appeared to regulate RAD51 expression through the VEGFR2-independent ABL-1 pathway, consequently regulating radiation sensitivity. In addition, the combined inhibition of VEGFR2 and NRP-1 appears to sensitize cancer cells to radiation.
