Abstract

Enigma protein, encoded by the PDLIM7 gene, is overexpressed in thyroid cancer in a stage-dependent manner, suggesting a potential involvement in the initiation and progression of thyroid cancer. The Enigma interacts with several cellular pathways, including PI3K/AKT, MDM2, and BMP-1. The Enigma is regulated by microRNAs. Specifically, we showed that the Enigma protein upregulation corresponds to the downregulation of Let-7 family genes. There is limited research on the interactions and regulation of the Enigma with other proteins/genes in thyroid cancer tissues, indicating a gap in current knowledge. Our aim is to establish the Enigma as a biomarker. We also aim to study the interacting partners of the Enigma signaling pathways and their probable miRNA regulation in thyroid cancer progression. Using Western blotting, densitometric analysis, immunoprecipitation (IP), and reverse IP, we detected the protein expression and protein-protein interactions in the corresponding papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). Utilizing real-time qPCR assay and Pearson's correlation test, we highlighted the correlation between PDLIM7 and Let-7g gene expression in the same tissues. The results showed the differential upregulations of the Enigma protein in different stages of PTCs compared to benign tissues along with AKT, VDR, BMP-1, and MDM2 proteins. Loss of DBP was observed in a subset of PTCs. Strong interactions of the Enigma with PI3K/AKT and MDM2 were noted, along with a weaker BMP-1 interaction. Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis between PDLIM7 and let-7g gene expression was significant ( < 0.05); however, there was a weak inverse correlation (r = -0.27). The study suggests the potential utility of the PDLIM7-qPCR assay as a biomarker for thyroid cancer. The Enigma's interactions with key signaling pathways may provide valuable insights into the development of thyroid cancer. The study contributes to understanding the molecular mechanisms involving the Enigma protein in thyroid cancer and highlights its potential as a biomarker.

摘要

由PDLIM7基因编码的Enigma蛋白在甲状腺癌中呈阶段依赖性过表达,提示其可能参与甲状腺癌的发生和进展。Enigma与多种细胞信号通路相互作用,包括PI3K/AKT、MDM2和BMP-1。Enigma受微小RNA调控。具体而言,我们发现Enigma蛋白上调与Let-7家族基因下调相对应。目前关于Enigma在甲状腺癌组织中与其他蛋白质/基因相互作用及调控的研究有限,表明当前存在知识空白。我们的目标是将Enigma确立为一种生物标志物。我们还旨在研究Enigma信号通路的相互作用伙伴及其在甲状腺癌进展中可能的微小RNA调控。通过蛋白质印迹法、密度分析、免疫沉淀(IP)和反向IP,我们检测了相应甲状腺乳头状癌(PTC)中的蛋白质表达和蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用。利用实时定量PCR检测和Pearson相关性检验,我们突出了同一组织中PDLIM7和Let-7g基因表达之间的相关性。结果显示,与良性组织相比,PTC不同阶段的Enigma蛋白以及AKT、VDR、BMP-1和MDM2蛋白存在差异上调。在一部分PTC中观察到DBP缺失。注意到Enigma与PI3K/AKT和MDM2有强烈相互作用,与BMP-1的相互作用较弱。PDLIM7和let-7g基因表达之间的Pearson相关系数分析具有显著性(<0.05);然而,呈弱负相关(r = -0.27)。该研究表明PDLIM7定量PCR检测作为甲状腺癌生物标志物具有潜在应用价值。Enigma与关键信号通路的相互作用可能为甲状腺癌的发展提供有价值的见解。该研究有助于理解Enigma蛋白在甲状腺癌中的分子机制,并突出了其作为生物标志物的潜力。
