Abstract

Herein, we elucidate the potential role of ANO6 (TMEM16F) in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). ANO6 expression in GIST and adjacent normal tissues was determined using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blotting. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, and pyroptosis were examined utilizing 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP Nick-End Labeling staining, and flow cytometry. In addition, the total iron and Fe2+ levels were assessed. IL-18 and IL-1β levels were also evaluated. Lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS), cystine (Cys), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) levels were evaluated using appropriate kits. Ferroptotic markers, including Ptgs2, Chac1, SLC7A11, and SLC3A2, were analyzed by RT-qPCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. ANO6 expression decreased in GIST tissues. ANO6-plasmid inhibits proliferation, induces apoptosis, and promotes pyroptosis in GIST-T1 and GIST-T1 IR cells. The ANO6-plasmid induced ferroptosis, as confirmed by enhanced lipid ROS levels, increased intracellular concentrations of total iron and Fe2+, promoted Ptgs2 and Chac1 expression, reduced Cys, GSH, and GPX4 levels, and downregulated SLC7A11 and SLC3A2 expression after in vitro and in vivo treatment with ANO6-plasmid. Moreover, the ANO6-plasmid inhibited GIST growth in vivo. Therefore, ANO6 may be a promising therapeutic target for blocking the development of GIST via the induction of apoptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis.

Abstract

The present study explores the function of FANCA gene, a pivotal member of the Fanconi anaemia (FA) pathway crucial for preserving genomic stability and preventing cancer, particularly in the context of gastric cancer (GC). Using immunohistochemistry, quantitative real-time PCR, and western blot analysis, we evaluate FANCA mRNA and protein expressions in GC cell lines. The relationship between FANCA expression and clinicopathological characteristics is also explored. Various assays, including CCK8, colony formation, wound healing, and Transwell assays, are used to assess functional changes in cells associated with FANCA. Flow cytometry is utilized to evaluate alterations in the cell cycle resulted from FANCA knockdown and overexpression. Our findings show elevated FANCA expression in GC cell lines, with levels correlated with pathologic stage and lymphatic metastasis. FANCA knockdown impedes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and induces G1/S phase cell cycle arrest. Conversely, FANCA overexpression stimulates cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. In vivo xenograft experiments confirm the promotional role of FANCA in GC tumor progression. Moreover, FANCA overexpression is associated with the activation of cell cycle. Collectively, our results suggest that FANCA drives malignant cell behaviors in GC through the cell cycle pathway, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of GC.
