タイトル Role of Extracellular High-Mobility Group Box-1 as a Therapeutic Target of Gastric Cancer.
ジャーナル Int J Mol Sci
Abstract BACKGROUND:High-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is involved in the tumorigenesis and metastasis of various cancers. The present study investigated the roles of extracellular HMGB1 in the progression of gastric cancer (GC) and the therapeutic effects of recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (rTM) targeting HMGB1.
METHODS:The effects of extracellular HMGB1 and rTM on GC cells were assessed using proliferation and Transwell assays. Their effects on local tumor growth and metastasis were evaluated using subcutaneous tumor and liver metastasis mouse models, respectively. Plasma HMGB1 concentrations in GC patients were measured using ELISA. The relationships between plasma HMGB1 concentrations and the prognosis and clinicopathological factors of patients were also investigated.
RESULTS:GC proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities were promoted by increases in extracellular HMGB1 concentrations and alleviated by rTM. In the subcutaneous tumor model, local tumor growth was promoted by the addition of rhHMGB1 and alleviated by rTM. Similar changes occurred in the liver metastasis model. Recurrence-free survival (p < 0.01) and overall survival (p = 0.01) were significantly worse in patients with high plasma HMGB1 concentrations.
CONCLUSION:Plasma HMGB1 concentrations are a prognostic marker in GC patients. Extracellular HMGB1 promotes cancer progression and has potential as a novel treatment target in GC cells for rTM.
