ZNF545 suppresses human hepatocellular carcinoma growth by inhibiting NF-kB signaling

چکیده
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers and the second leading cause of cancer related death worldwide. ZNF545 is located in the chromosome 19q13.13, which is frequent loss of heterozygosity in human astrocytoma. Methylation of ZNF545 was found frequently in a few kinds of cancers. While the function of ZNF545 in human HCC remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to explore the function and mechanism of ZNF545 in human HCC. Restoration of ZNF545 expression suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, induced G1/S arrest and apoptosis in SNU449 and Huh7 cells. Further study suggested that ZNF545 suppressed HCC cell growth by inhibiting NF-kB signaling. These results were further validated by siRNA knocking down technique in ZNF545 highly expressed HXBF344 cells. In vivo, ZNF545 suppressed tumor growth in SNU449 cell xenograft mice. In conclusion, ZNF545 suppresses human HCC growth by inhibiting NF-kB signaling.

Cell Cycle, Cell Death, and Senescence A Novel 19q13 Nucleolar Zinc Finger Protein Suppresses Tumor Cell Growth through Inhibiting Ribosome Biogenesis and Inducing Apoptosis but Is Frequently Silenced inMultiple Carcinomas
Epigenetic disruption of tumor suppressor genes is frequently involved in tumorigenesis. We identified a novel 19q13 KRAB domain-containing zinc finger protein, ZNF545/ZFP82, broadly expressed in normal tissues but downregulated in multiple tumor cell lines. The ZNF545 promoter contains a CpG island, which is frequently methylated in cell lines. The transcriptional silencing of ZNF545 could be ...

Background and objectives: Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) inhibition results in an increase in apoptosis. It has been demonstrated that NF-κB subunit p65 phosphorylation at the IκB kinase phosphorylation site serine 536 (Ser536) is essential for the NF-κB nuclear translocation and activation. Therefore, NF-κB can be downregulated by suppressing its phosph...

Rabdosia serra is well known for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities, but no information has been available for the active compounds derived from this plant in inhibiting human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell growth. In this study, we isolated and purified a natural diterpenoid from Rabdosia serra and identified its chemical structure as effusanin E and elucidated ...
