Li S, Chen J, Zhou B. The clinical significance of endoplasmic reticulum stress related genes in non-small cell lung cancer and analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism for CAV1. Front Mol Biosci 2024; 11:1414164. [PMID: 39165641 PMCID: PMC11334084 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2024.1414164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024] Open
Abstract
In recent years, protein homeostasis imbalance caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress has become a major hallmark of cancer. Studies have shown that endoplasmic reticulum stress is closely related to the occurrence, development, and drug resistance of non-small cell lung cancer, however, the role of various endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes in non-small cell lung cancer is still unclear. In this study, we established an endoplasmic reticulum stress scores based on the Cancer Genome Atlas for non-small cell lung cancer to reflect patient features and predict prognosis. Survival analysis showed significant differences in overall survival among non-small cell lung cancer patients with different endoplasmic reticulum stress scores. In addition, endoplasmic reticulum stress scores was significantly correlated with the clinical features of non-small cell lung cancer patients, and can be served as an independent prognostic indicator. A nomogram based on endoplasmic reticulum stress scores indicated a certain clinical net benefit, while ssGSEA analysis demonstrated that there was a certain immunosuppressive microenvironment in high endoplasmic reticulum stress scores. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis showed that scores was associated with cancer pathways and metabolism. Finally, weighted gene co-expression network analysis displayed that CAV1 was closely related to the occurrence of non-small cell lung cancer. Therefore, in order to further analyze the role of this gene, Chinese non-smoking females were selected as the research subjects to investigate the relationship between CAV1 rs3779514 and susceptibility and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer. The results showed that the mutation of rs3779514 significantly reduced the risk of non-small cell lung cancer in Chinese non-smoking females, but no prognostic effect was found. In summary, we proposed an endoplasmic reticulum stress scores, which was an independent prognostic factor and indicated immune characteristics in the microenvironment of non-small cell lung cancer. We also validated the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism locus of core genes and susceptibility to non-small cell lung cancer.

Abstract
The skin is the outermost layer and largest organ in the human body. Since the skin interfaces with the environment, it has a variety of roles, including providing a protective barrier against external factors, regulating body temperature, and retaining water in the body. It is also involved in the immune system, interacting with immune cells residing in the dermis. Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) is essential for caveolae formation and has multiple functions including endocytosis, lipid homeostasis, and signal transduction. CAV-1 is known to interact with a variety of signaling molecules and receptors and may influence cell proliferation and migration. Several skin-related disorders, especially those of the inflammatory or hyperproliferative type such as skin cancers, psoriasis, fibrosis, and wound healing, are reported to be associated with aberrant CAV-1 expression. In this review, we have explored CAV-1 involvement in skin physiology and skin diseases.

Abstract
Caveolae are membrane microdomains described in many cell types involved in endocytocis, transcytosis, cell signaling, mechanotransduction, and aging. They are found at the interface with the extracellular environment and are structured by caveolin and cavin proteins. Caveolae and caveolins mediate transduction of chemical messages via signaling pathways, as well as non-chemical messages, such as stretching or shear stress. Various pathogens or signals can hijack these gates, leading to infectious, oncogenic and even caveolin-related diseases named caveolinopathies. By contrast, preclinical and clinical research have fallen behind in their attempts to hijack caveolae and caveolins for therapeutic purposes. Caveolae involvement in human disease is not yet fully explored or understood and, of all their scaffold proteins, only caveolin-1 is being considered in clinical trials as a possible biomarker of disease. This review briefly summarizes current knowledge about caveolae cell signaling and raises the hypothesis whether these microdomains could serve as hijackable “gatekeepers” or “gateways” in cell communication. Furthermore, because cell signaling is one of the most dynamic domains in translating data from basic to clinical research, we pay special attention to translation of caveolae, caveolin, and cavin research into clinical practice.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common and malignant cancers with extremely high morbidity and mortality in both males and females. Although traditional lung cancer treatments are fast progressing, there are still limitations. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a main component of caveolae, participates in multiple cellular events such as immune responses, endocytosis, membrane trafficking, cellular signaling and cancer progression. It has been found tightly associated with lung cancer cell proliferation, migration, apoptosis resistance and drug resistance. In addition to this, multiple bioactive molecules have been confirmed to target Cav-1 to carry on their anti-tumor functions in lung cancers. Cav-1 can also be a predictor for lung cancer patients’ prognosis. In this review, we have summarized the valuable research on Cav-1 and lung cancer in recent years and discussed the multifaceted roles of Cav-1 on lung cancer occurrence, development and therapy, hoping to provide new insights into lung cancer treatment.

Pathol Res Pract 2019; 215:152518. [PMID: 31303379 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2019.152518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2019] [Revised: 06/01/2019] [Accepted: 06/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Caveolin-1 (CAV1) polymorphisms have been shown to correlated with breast cancer risk in previous studies. However, the role of CAV1 polymorphisms still remained indecisive, and dual functions of CAV1 was demonstrated in breast cancer development. Consequently, a meta-analysis to evaluate and summarize the association of the CAV1 polymorphisms with breast cancer susceptibility. MATERIAL AND METHODS Extensive search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, Google scholar, EMBASE.com, CNKI and Wanfang searching platform up to March 2019. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) were used to evaluate the quality of each study. The Odds ratios (ORs) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were analyzed to evaluate the strength of the associations in five genetic models. Inter-study heterogeneity was quantified using the I-squared (I2) test. In addition, the Egger's test and Begg's test were applied to evaluate the publication bias. RESULTS 4 case-control studies with 2115 cases and 2138 controls were enrolled into this analysis. There was a significant association between rs3807987 polymorphism of CAV1 and breast cancer in allele comparison (A vs. G: OR = 1.288, 95%CI = 1.162-1.428, P < 0.001), heterozygote comparison (AG vs. GG: OR= 1.422, 95%CI=1.233-1.639, P < 0.001), and dominant comparison (AA+AG vs. GG: OR=1.395, 95%CI=1.228-1.586, P < 0.001). A significant association of rs3807987 polymorphism in allele comparison (A vs. G: OR=1.238, 95%CI=1.109-1.383, P < 0.001), heterozygote comparison (AG VS. GG: OR=1.466, 95%CI=1.267-1.697, P < 0.05), and dominant comparison (AA+AG vs. GG: OR=1.384, 95%CI=1.209-1.585, P < 0.001) was also founded amongst Chinese population. A significant association between rs7804372 polymorphism and breast cancer amongst Chinese population in recessive comparison (AA vs. AT + TT: OR = 0.730, 95%CI = 0.567-0.940, P = 0.015) was identified. No significant association between breast cancer risk and rs1997623 was found. CONCLUSION CAV1 rs3807987 and rs7804372 polymorphisms are associated with the change of breast cancer risk. More well-designed and large studies in various populations are needed to further elaborate these associations.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Recently, accumulating data indicate that long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) function as novel crucial regulators of diverse biological processes, including proliferation and metastasis, in tumorigenesis. Lnc NONHSAT081507.1 (LINC81507) is associated with lung adenocarcinoma. However, its pathological role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unknown. In our study we investigated the role of LINC81507 in NSCLC. The expression of LINC81507 was analyzed in 105 paired NSCLC tumor specimens and paired adjacent non-tumorous tissues from NSCLC patients by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Gain- and loss-of-function experiments were conducted to investigate the functions of LINC81507, miR-199b-5p and CAV1. Reduced expression of LINC81507 resulted in cell growth, proliferation, migration and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) in NSCLC cells, whereas ectopic overexpression of LINC81507 resulted in the opposite effects both in vitro and in vivo. Nuclear and Cytoplasmic fractionation assays showed LINC81507 mainly resided in cytoplasm. Bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase assays revealed that miR-199b-5p was a direct target of LINC81507 through binding Ago2. Mechanistic analysis demonstrated that miR-199b-5p specifically targeted the Caveolin1 (CAV1) gene, and LINC81507 inactivated the STAT3 pathway in a CAV1-dependent manner. Taken together, LINC81507 is decreased in NSCLC and functions as a sponge to miR-199b-5p to regulate CAV1/STAT3 pathway, which suggests that LINC81507 serve as a tumor suppressor and potential therapeutic target and biomarker for metastasis and prognosis in NSCLC.

Caveolin-1 enhances brain metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer, potentially in association with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition marker SNAIL. Cancer Cell Int 2019; 19:171. [PMID: 31297035 PMCID: PMC6599320 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-019-0892-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2019] [Accepted: 06/25/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) plays an important role in the development of various human cancers. We investigated the relationship between Cav-1 expression and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression in the context of brain metastasis (BM). Methods Cav-1 expression was investigated in a series of 102 BM samples and 49 paired primary NSCLC samples, as well as 162 unpaired primary NSCLC samples with (63 cases) or without (99 cases) metastasis to distant organs. Human lung cancer cell lines were used for in vitro functional analysis. Results High Cav-1 expression in tumor cells was observed in 52% (38/73) of squamous cell carcinomas (SQCs) and 33% (45/138) of non-SQCs. In SQC, high Cav-1 expression was increased after BM in both paired and unpaired samples of lung primary tumors and BM (53% vs. 84% in paired samples, P = 0.034; 52% vs. 78% in unpaired samples, P = 0.020). Although the difference in median overall survival in patients NSCLC was not statistically significant, high Cav-1 expression in tumor cells (P = 0.005, hazard ratio 1.715, 95% confidence index 1.175–2.502) was independent prognostic factors of overall survival on multivariate Cox regression analyses, in addition to the presence of BM and non-SQC type. In vitro assays revealed that Cav-1 knockdown inhibited the invasion and migration of lung cancer cells. Genetic modulation of Cav-1 was consistently associated with SNAIL up- and down-regulation. These findings were supported by increased SNAIL and Cav-1 expression in BM samples of SQC. Conclusions Cav-1 plays an important role in the BM of NSCLC, especially in SQC. The mechanism may be linked to SNAIL regulation.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are unique populations of cells that can self-renew and generate different cancer cell lineages. Although CSCs are believed to be a promising target for novel therapies, the specific mechanisms by which these putative therapeutics could intervene are less clear. Nitric oxide (NO) is a biological mediator frequently up-regulated in tumors and has been linked to cancer aggressiveness. Here, we search for targets of NO that could explain its activity. We find that it directly affects the stability and function of octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (Oct4), known to drive the stemness of lung cancer cells. We demonstrated that NO promotes the CSC-regulatory activity of Oct4 through a mechanism that involves complex formation between Oct4 and the scaffolding protein caveolin-1 (Cav-1). In the absence of NO, Oct4 forms a molecular complex with Cav-1, which promotes the ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation of Oct4. NO promotes Akt-dependent phosphorylation of Cav-1 at tyrosine 14, disrupting the Cav-1:Oct4 complex. Site-directed mutagenesis and computational modeling studies revealed that the hydroxyl moiety at tyrosine 14 of Cav-1 is crucial for its interaction with Oct4. Both removal of the hydroxyl via mutation to phenylalanine and phosphorylation lead to an increase in binding free energy (ΔGbind) between Oct4 and Cav-1, destabilizing the complex. Together, these results unveiled a novel mechanism of CSC regulation through NO-mediated stabilization of Oct4, a key stem cell transcription factor, and point to new opportunities to design CSC-related therapeutics.

Abstract
Resistance of solid tumors to chemo- and radiotherapy remains a major obstacle in anti-cancer treatment. Herein, the membrane protein caveolin-1 (CAV1) came into focus as it is highly expressed in many tumors and high CAV1 levels were correlated with tumor progression, invasion and metastasis, and thus a worse clinical outcome. Increasing evidence further indicates that the heterogeneous tumor microenvironment, also known as the tumor stroma, contributes to therapy resistance resulting in poor clinical outcome. Again, CAV1 seems to play an important role in modulating tumor host interactions by promoting tumor growth, metastasis, therapy resistance and cell survival. However, the mechanisms driving stroma-mediated tumor growth and radiation resistance remain to be clarified. Understanding these interactions and thus, targeting CAV1 may offer a novel strategy for preventing cancer therapy resistance and improving clinical outcomes. In this review, we will summarize the resistance-promoting effects of CAV1 in tumors, and emphasize its role in the tumor-stroma communication as well as the resulting malignant phenotype of epithelial tumors.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a major structural protein of caveolae, is an integral membrane protein which plays an important role in the progression of carcinoma. However, whether Cav-1 acts as a tumor promoter or a tumor suppressor still remains controversial. For example, the tumor-promoting function of Cav-1 has been found in renal cancer, prostate cancer, tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), lung SCC and bladder SCC. In contrast, Cav-1 also plays an inhibitory role in esophagus adenocarcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma and cutaneous SCC. The role of Cav-1 is still controversial in thyroid cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, breast cancer, pancreas cancer, oral SCC, laryngeal SCC, head and neck SCC, esophageal SCC and cervical SCC. Besides, it has been reported that the loss of stromal Cav-1 might predict poor prognosis in breast cancer, gastric cancer, pancreas cancer, prostate cancer, oral SCC and esophageal SCC. However, the accumulation of stromal Cav-1 has been found to be promoted by the progression of tongue SCC. Taken together, Cav-1 seems playing a different role in different cancer subtypes even of the same organ, as well as acting differently in the same cancer subtype of different organs. Thus, we hereby explore the functions of Cav-1 in human adenocarcinoma and SCC from the perspective of clinical significances and pathogenesis. We envision that novel targets may come with the further investigation of Cav-1 in carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Both tumor suppressor and tumor promoter roles, which are dependent on the tumor type, have been described for caveolin-1 (CAV-1). Because CAV-1 can modulate cell signaling, we tested the hypothesis that it regulates lung adenocarcinoma cell proliferation and metastasis via modulation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activity. The lung adenocarcinoma cell line, GLC-82, was transfected with pcDNA3.1CAV-1 plasmid, before cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were analyzed. In the in vivo xenograft model, the relationship between the CAV-1 expression and EGFR phosphorylation and signaling was assessed by western blot analysis. The relationship between the CAV-1 as well as Ki67 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of 68 lung adenocarcinoma patients was also examined using immunohistochemistry. Overexpression of CAV-1 significantly increased GLC-82 proliferation (p < 0.001), migration (p < 0.001), and invasion (p = 0.002) as well as EGFR and ERK phosphorylation (p < 0.05). The GLC-82/CAV-1 cell tumors were also significantly larger than those of control cells (all p ≤ 0.05). In lung adenocarcinoma patients, CAV-1 expression was positively correlated with lymph node metastasis and cancer stage. Finally, CAV-1 expression was associated with the expression of Ki-67, a marker of cell proliferation. CAV-1 enhanced GLC-82 cell proliferation, migration, and invasion possibly through EGFR and ERK signaling. Furthermore, the relationship of CAV-1 with Ki67 expression, a marker of proliferative capacity, in lung adenocarcinoma samples is suggestive of its role in disease progression. Further studies are required to confirm the role of CAV-1 in the metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma as well as its potential prognostic and therapeutic value.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of caveolin-1 (CAV1) genetic variants (C239A (rs1997623), G14713A (rs3807987), G21985A (rs12672038), T29107A (rs7804372)) with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) susceptibility. METHODS A total of 427 patients with ESCC and 427 healthy controls were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. RESULTS There were significant differences between patients and controls in distributions of their genotypes and allelic frequencies in G14713A and T29107A polymorphisms. Furthermore, haplotype analysis revealed that haplotypes CAAT and CAGT were associated with high risk for ESCC, while haplotype CGGA was protective against ESCC. Stratified analysis showed the associations between the SNPs (G14713A and T29107A) and ESCC risk were noteworthy among female patients and patients who never smoke or drank alcohol. CONCLUSIONS Genetic polymorphisms of CAV1 G14713A and T29107A might affect an individual's susceptibility in developing ESCC, making them efficient potential genetic biomarkers for early detection of ESCC.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 is a scaffold protein on the cell membrane. As the main component of caveolae, caveolin-1 is involved in many biological processes that include substance uptake and transmembrane signaling. Many of these processes and thus caveolin-1 contribute to cell transformation, tumorigenesis, and metastasis. Of particular interest are the dual rolesof tumor suppressor and oncogene that caveolin-1 appear to play in different malignancies, including pancreatic cancer. Therefore, analyzing caveolin-1 regulators and understanding their mechanisms of actionis key to identifying novel diagnostic and therapeutic tools for pancreatic cancer. This review details the mechanisms of action of caveolin-1 regulators and the potential significance for pancreatic cancer treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated the relationships of caveolin-1 expression with clinical pathologic parameters and the prognosis of patients with large cell lung carcinoma. This study also explored the roles of caveolin-1 in cell invasiveness, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression, and non-small cell lung carcinoma activity in vitro. METHODS A total of 120 tissue samples were immunohistochemically analyzed for caveolin-1 expression. Cell invasion ability was measured by a Transwell invasion assay. Protein expression was assessed by Western blotting. MMP activity was detected by gelatin zymography. RESULTS Caveolin-1 was expressed in 54 of 120 (45.0%) cases of large cell lung carcinoma. Caveolin-1 expression was significantly correlated with node status (N0 vs. N1, N2, and N3; P=0.005) and advanced pTNM stage (Stages I and II vs. Stage III, P<0.001). Patients with caveolin-1-positive expression had a poorer prognosis than did those with caveolin-1-negative expression (P<0.001). The knockdown of caveolin-1 in H460 and 95D cells reduced the invasive ability of the cells and the expression of phosphorylated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), phospho-extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2, MMP2, and MMP9; the protein level and activity of MMP2 and MMP9 were also decreased by the inhibition of EGFR activity in H460 and 95D cells. CONCLUSIONS The expression of caveolin-1 was positively correlated with an advanced pathologic stage. Thus, caveolin-1 could act as a predictor of a poor prognosis in patients with large cell lung carcinoma. In addition, the downregulation of caveolin-1 reduced both the invasive ability of tumor cells and the protein and activity levels of MMP2 and MMP9 in vitro, suggesting the involvement of EGFR/MMP signaling in this process.

Abstract
Deleted in liver cancer 1 (DLC1), a tumor suppressor gene frequently inactivated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other malignancies, encodes a multidomain protein with a RhoGTPase-activating (RhoGAP) domain and a StAR-related lipid transfer (START) domain. However, no interacting macromolecule has been mapped to the DLC1 START domain. Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) functions as a tumor suppressor in most contexts and forms a complex with DLC1. Here, we have mapped the region of DLC1 required for interaction with CAV-1 to the DLC1 START domain. Mutation of the DLC1 START domain disrupted the interaction and colocalization with CAV-1. Moreover, DLC1 with a START domain mutation failed to suppress neoplastic growth, although it negatively regulated active Rho. CAV-1 and DLC1 expression levels were correlated in two public datasets of NSCLC lines and in two independent publicly available mRNA expression datasets of NSCLC tumors. Clinically, low DLC1 expression predicted a poor clinical outcome in patients with lung cancer. Together, our findings indicate that complex formation between the DLC1 START domain and CAV-1 contributes to DLC1 tumor suppression via a RhoGAP-independent mechanism, and suggest that DLC1 inactivation probably contributes to cancer progression.

Abstract
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is the most aggressive type of lung cancer, and its treatment is closely associated with apoptosis. Caveolin-1 plays an important role in the development of a variety of human cancers. This study sought to investigate the influence of Caveolin-1 on the apoptosis of SCLC in vitro. We demonstrate that higher expression of Caveolin-1 leads to inhibition of cisplatin and Ultraviolet Radiation (UVR)-induced apoptosis in SCLC cells; and also could decrease caspase-3 activity and increase the stability of Bcl-2 at the protein level. Our findings illuminate a potential molecular mechanism regarding CAV-1's role as anti-apoptosis protein.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (CAV-1), one component of caveolae, involves in multiple cellular processes and signal transductions. We previously showed that the expression of CAV-1 gene in NCI-H446 cells inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell metastasis. Here we explore the function of CAV-1 on tumor growth and metastasis by using NCI-H460 in vitro. First, we established NCI-H460 cell line, which CAV-1 was stably knockdown. Then we investigated the effects of CAV-1 on the morphology, proliferation, cell cycle and metastasis potential for NCI-H460 cell by crystal violet stains, CCK-8, colony formation, flow cytometry, scratch-wound assay and transwell assay. Western blot was used to examine the expression changes of cyclin D1, PCNA, E-cadherin and β-catenin. Our results showed stable knockdown of CAV-1 inhibited the proliferation of NCI-H460 cells. Cell cycle of the transfected cells was arrested in G1/S phase and the expressions of cyclin D1 and PCNA protein were downregulated. Downregulation of CAV-1 promoted the migration and invasion abilities of NCI-H460 cells in vitro. The expression of β-catenin increased and the level of E-cadherin decreased. In summary, our findings provide experimental evidence that CAV-1 may function as a proproliferative and antimetastatic gene in NCI-H460 cell line.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (cav-1) has been implicated in the development of human cancers. However, the distribution of cav-1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its significance require further study. Real-time PCR and Western blot assays were performed to detect cav-1 mRNA and protein levels in tumor tissues (TT) and matched tumor-free tissues (TF). The protein expression in 115 paraffin-embedded blocks was examined by immunohistochemical staining (IHC). Correlations between cav-1 mRNA and protein expression by IHC and clinicopathological features were statistically evaluated. For the 136 patients examined, the levels of cav-1 mRNA and protein expression were significantly lower in lung TT compared to matched TF (P<0.05). High cav-1 expression was detected in 60 of 115 (52.2%) NSCLC tissues and this level was significantly lower than cav-1 expression in non-cancerous lung tissues (15 of 19, 78.9%, P<0.05). Up-regulation of cav-1 mRNA expression in lung adenocarcinoma (AC) (29.7%) was higher than that observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (15.8%). Statistical analysis of the correlation between cav-1 protein expression and clinical features showed a statistical association with poorer N-stage (P=0.032) and higher pathological TNM stage (P=0.012) in lung AC patients, that was not found in lung SCC patients. Moreover, lung AC patients with higher cav-1 expression showed significantly shorter life-spans than those with lower cav-1 expression (P=0.032, log-rank test). The levels of cav-1 mRNA and protein expression were significantly lower in lung cancers when compared to matched TF or non-cancerous lung tissues. The higher protein expression correlated with the advanced pathological stage and shorter survival rates in lung AC patients.

Abstract
Background Aquaporins (AQPs) have been recognized to promote tumor progression, invasion, and metastasis and are therefore recognized as promising targets for novel anti-cancer therapies. Potentially relevant AQPs in distinct cancer entities can be determined by a comprehensive expression analysis of the 13 human AQPs. Methods We analyzed the presence of all AQP transcripts in 576 different normal lung and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) samples using microarray data and validated our findings by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Results Variable expression of several AQPs (AQP1, -3, -4, and -5) was found in NSCLC and normal lung tissues. Furthermore, we identified remarkable differences between NSCLC subtypes in regard to AQP1, -3 and -4 expression. Higher transcript and protein levels of AQP4 in well-differentiated lung adenocarcinomas suggested an association with a more favourable prognosis. Beyond water transport, data mining of co-expressed genes indicated an involvement of AQP4 in cell-cell signalling, cellular movement and lipid metabolism, and underlined the association of AQP4 to important physiological functions in benign lung tissue. Conclusions Our findings accentuate the need to identify functional differences and redundancies of active AQPs in normal and tumor cells in order to assess their value as promising drug targets.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The identification of key pathways dysregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is an important step toward understanding lung pathogenesis and developing new therapeutic approaches. METHODS Toward this goal, reverse-phase protein lysate arrays (RPPA) were used to compare signaling pathways between NSCLC tumors and paired normal lung tissue from 46 patients and assess their association with clinical outcome. RESULTS After RPPA quantification of 63 proteins and phosphoproteins, tissue pairs were randomized to a training set (n = 25 pairs) and test set (n = 21 pairs). In the training set, 15 protein markers were differentially expressed between tumors and normal lung (p ≤ 0.01), including markers in the PI3K/AKT and p38 MAPK signaling pathways (e.g., p70S6K, S6, p38, and phospho-p38), as well as caveolin-1 and β-catenin. A four-protein signature (p70S6K, cyclin B1, pSrc(Y527), and caveolin-1) independent of histology classified specimens as tumor versus normal with a predicted accuracy of 83%, sensitivity of 67%, and specificity of 100%. The signature was validated in the test set, correctly classifying all normal tissues and 14 of 21 tumor tissues. RPPA results were confirmed by immunohistochemistry for caveolin-1 and p70S6K. In tumors from patients with resected NSCLC, expression of proteins in the energy-sensing AMPK pathway (pLKB1, AMPK, p-Acetyl-CoA, pTSC2), adhesion, EGFR, and Rb signaling pathways was inversely associated with NSCLC recurrence. CONCLUSIONS These data provide evidence for dysregulation of several pathways including those involving energy sensing and adhesion that are potentially associated with NSCLC pathogenesis and disease recurrence.

Abstract
The acquired capability of tumor cells to migrate and invade neighboring tissues is associated with high metastatic potential and advanced stage of cancers. Recently, signaling molecules such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and caveolin-1 (Cav-1) have been implicated in the aggressive behavior of cancer cells. However, the roles of specific ROS in cancer cell migration and Cav-1 regulation are unclear. We demonstrate here that Cav-1 plays an important role in the migration and invasion of human lung carcinoma H460 cells and that these effects are differentially regulated by cellular ROS. Using various known inhibitors and donors of ROS, we found that different ROS have different effects on Cav-1 expression and cell migration and invasion. Superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide down-regulated Cav-1 expression and inhibited cell migration and invasion, whereas hydroxyl radical up-regulated the Cav-1 expression and promoted cell migration and invasion. The down-regulating effect of superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide on Cav-1 is mediated through a transcription-independent mechanism that involves protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. These results indicate the essential role of different ROS in cancer cell motility and through Cav-1 expression, which may provide a key mechanism controlling tumor progression and metastasis. The up-regulation of Cav-1 and cell motility by hydroxyl free radical suggests an important role of this ROS as a positive regulator of tumor progression.

Abstract
Background Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), the major component of caveolae, is a 21–24 kDa integral membrane protein that interacts with a number of signaling molecules. By acting as a scaffolding protein, Cav-1 plays crucial roles in the regulation of various physiologic and patho-physiologic processes including oncogenic transformation and tumorigenesis, and tumor invasion and metastasis. Methodology/Principal Findings In the present study we sought to explore the role of Cav-1 in response to DNA damage and the mechanism involved. We found that the level of Cav-1 was up-regulated rapidly in cells treated with ionizing radiation. The up-regulation of Cav-1 following DNA damage occurred only in cells expressing endogenous Cav-1, and was associated with the activation of DNA damage response pathways. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the expression of Cav-1 protected cells against DNA damage through modulating the activities of both the homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair systems, as evidenced by the inhibitory effects of the Cav-1-targeted siRNA on cell survival, HR frequency, phosphorylation of DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), and nuclear translocation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) following DNA damage, and by the stimulatory effect of the forced expression of Cav-1 on NHEJ frequency. Conclusion/Significance Our results indicate that Cav-1 may play a critical role in sensing genotoxic stress and in orchestrating the response of cells to DNA damage through regulating the important molecules involved in maintaining genomic integrity.

Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is a major structural protein of caveolae, specialized plasma membrane invaginations that are involved in a cell-specific fashion in diverse cell activities such as molecular transport, cell adhesion, and signal transduction. In normal adult mammals, Cav-1 expression is abundant in mesenchyme-derived cells but relatively low in epithelial parenchyma. However, epithelial Cav-1 overexpression is associated with development and/or progression of many carcinomas. In this study, we generated and characterized a transgenic mouse model of Cav-1 overexpression under the control of a mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) long terminal-repeat promoter, which is predominantly expressed in specific epithelial cells. The MMTVcav-1(+) transgenic mice were fertile, and females bore litters of normal size with no obvious developmental abnormalities. However, by age 11months, the MMTVcav-1(+) mice demonstrated overtly different phenotypes in multiple exocrine organs when compared with their nontransgenic MMTVcav-1(-) littermates. Cav-1 overexpression in MMTVcav-1(+) mice produced organ-specific abnormalities, including hypotrophy of mammary glandular epithelia, bronchiolar epithelial hyperplasia and atypia, mucous-cell hyperplasia in salivary glands, elongated hair follicles and dermal thickening in the skin, and reduced accumulation of enzymogen granules in pancreatic acinar cells. In addition, the MMTVcav-1(+) transgenic mice tended to have a greater incidence of malignant tumors, including lung and liver carcinomas and lymphoma, than their MMTVcav-1(-) littermates. Our results indicate that Cav-1 overexpression causes organ-specific, age-related epithelial disorders and suggest the potential for increased susceptibility to carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Luminescent semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are a new class of fluorescent label with wide ranges of applications in cell imaging. In this study, we evaluated the capability of QDs immunofluorescence histochemistry (QDs-IHC) for detecting antigens of caveolin-1 and PCNA in the lung cancer tissue microarray (TMA) in comparison with the conventional immunohistochemistry (IHC) technique. Both methods revealed consistent antigen localization and statistically non-significant detection rates of caveolin-1 and PCNA expressions in our study. However, the sensitivity of QDs-IHC was higher than IHC. The positive detection rates of caveolin-1 and PCNA by QDs-IHC were 57% (40/70) and 86% (60/70), respectively, which were higher than the detection rates of 47% (33/70) and 77% (54/70), respectively, by IHC. Moreover, QDs exhibited a much better photostability, a broader excitation spectrum and a longer fluorescence lifetime. We showed here the advantages of QDs-IHC over IHC for the detection of caveolin-1 and PCNA in lung cancer TMA.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 protein has been called a 'conditional tumor suppressor' because it can either suppress or enhance tumor progression depending on cellular context. Caveolin-1 levels are dynamic in non-small-cell lung cancer, with increased levels in metastatic tumor cells. We have shown previously that transactivation of an erythroblastosis virus-transforming sequence (ETS) cis-element enhances caveolin-1 expression in a murine lung epithelial cell line. Based on high sequence homology between the murine and human caveolin-1 promoters, we proposed that ETS proteins might regulate caveolin-1 expression in human lung tumorigenesis. We confirm that caveolin-1 is not detected in well-differentiated primary lung tumors. Polyoma virus enhancer activator 3 (PEA3), a pro-metastatic ETS protein in breast cancer, is expressed at low levels in well-differentiated tumors and high levels in poorly differentiated tumors. Conversely, Net, a known ETS repressor, is expressed at high levels in the nucleus of well-differentiated primary tumor cells. In tumor cells in metastatic lymph node sites, caveolin-1 and PEA3 are highly expressed, whereas Net is now expressed in the cytoplasm. We studied transcriptional regulation of caveolin-1 in two human lung cancer cell lines, Calu-1 (high caveolin-1 expressing) and NCI-H23 (low caveolin-1 expressing). Chromatin immunoprecipitation-binding assays and small interfering RNA experiments show that PEA3 is a transcriptional activator in Calu-1 cells and that Net is a transcriptional repressor in NCI-H23 cells. These results suggest that Net may suppress caveolin-1 transcription in primary lung tumors and that PEA3 may activate caveolin-1 transcription in metastatic lymph nodes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Caveolin-1 is a protein marker for caveolae organelles and has an essential impact on cellular signal transduction pathways (e.g., receptor tyrosine kinases, adhesion molecules, and G-protein-coupled receptors). In the present study, we investigated the expression of caveolin-1 in patients with rectal adenocarcinoma and correlated its expression pattern with the risk for disease recurrences after preoperative chemoradiation therapy (CRT) and surgical resection. METHODS AND MATERIALS Caveolin-1 mRNA and protein expression were evaluated by Affymetrix microarray analysis (n = 20) and immunohistochemistry (n = 44) on pretreatment biopsy samples of patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the rectum, and were correlated with clinical and histopathologic characteristics as well as with 5-year rates of local failure and overall survival. RESULTS A significantly decreased median caveolin-1 intracellular mRNA level was observed in tumor biopsy samples as compared with noncancerous mucosa. Individual mRNA levels and immunohistologic staining, however, revealed an overexpression in 7 of 20 patients (35%) and 17 of 44 patients (38.6%), respectively. Based on immunohistochemical evaluation, local control rates at 5 years for patients with tumors showing low caveolin-1 expression were significantly better than for patients with high caveolin-1-expressing carcinoma cells (p = 0.05; 92%, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 82-102% vs. 72%, 95% CI = 49-84%). A low caveolin-1 protein expression was also significantly related to an increased overall survival rate (p = 0.05; 45%, 95% CI 16-60% vs. 82%, 95% CI = 67-97%). CONCLUSION Caveolin-1 may provide a novel prognostic marker for local control and survival after preoperative CRT and surgical resection in rectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is becoming one of the common malignant tumors worldwide, and it is characterized by its high vascularity. Caveolin is the major structural protein in caveolae, which are small omega-shaped invaginations within the plasma membrane. Caveolin has been implicated in mitogenic signaling, oncogenesis and angiogenesis. The expression of caveolin-1 and -2 in HCC and its potential relationship with angiogenesis has not been examined. METHODS Paraffin sections of 35 HCC specimens were immunostained with caveolin-1, caveolin-2, alpha-smooth muscle actin, and CD34 antibodies. In addition, the expression of caveolin-1 and -2 mRNA in HCC was examined. The relationship between the radiological findings and the number of unpaired arteries and microvessel density (MVD) was also investigated. RESULTS Caveolin-1 and -2 were expressed in the sinusoidal endothelial cells in 20 out of 35, and 18 out of 35 HCC specimens, respectively. Caveolin-1 and -2 were also expressed in the smooth muscle cells of the unpaired arteries in 26 out of 35, and 18 out of 35 HCC specimens, respectively. Increased expression of caveolin-1 and -2 mRNA was detected in 26.7% and 33.3% of the tumor specimens, respectively, compared with the corresponding non-tumorous adjacent liver tissues. There was a significant correlation between expression of caveolin-1, -2 in the smooth muscle cells of unpaired arteries and the number of unpaired arteries. The number of unpaired arteries in HCCs was found to be associated with the degree of contrast enhancement in the arterial phase imaging. However, it did not correlate with the degree of MVD. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the expression of caveolin-1, -2 is associated with the formation of unpaired arteries in HCC. In addition, there is a correlation between the degree of contrast enhancement of the HCC in the arterial phase image and the number of unpaired arteries.

Abstract
The immunohistochemical expression of caveolin-1 (cav-1) was evaluated in a series of gastric carcinomas (GC) and in the adjacent normal gastric mucosa. Cav-1 immuno-expression was found in most GC (94%) with a significantly higher amount in the Lauren intestinal type in comparison to the diffuse-type carcinomas. Interestingly, gastric intestinal metaplasia as well as the cells at the base and neck of gastric pits within all fundic mucosal fragments showed an evident cav-1 immuno-staining, suggesting a histogenetic derivation of these lesions from the trans-differentiation of chief cells or from a cryptic progenitor population at the base of fundic glands, as recently hypothesized by other authors. The absence of significant correlations between cav-1 immuno-expression and the other clinico-pathological parameters, such as the stage of disease or the patients overall survival, indicates that the role of cav-1 in GC is neither stage-specific nor related to prognosis.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (CAV1) and caveolin 2 (CAV2) are the principal structural proteins of caveolae, sphingolipid and cholesterol-rich invaginations of the plasma membrane involved in vesicular trafficking and signal transduction. Over the recent years there has been controversy about their role in breast cancer and their suitability as markers of basal-like phenotype. Caveolin-1 and CAV2 protein expression was assessed on a tissue microarray containing 880 unselected invasive breast cancer cases, by means of immunohistochemistry. Caveolin-1 and CAV2 expression was observed in 13.4 and 5.9% of all breast cancer, respectively. Their expression was strongly associated with high histological grade, lack of steroid hormone receptor positivity (ER and PR), and expression of basal markers (basal cytokeratins, P63, P-cadherin). Furthermore, there was a significant association between CAV1 and CAV2 expression and basal-like phenotype. On univariate analysis only CAV2 had a prognostic impact on breast cancer-specific survival; however, this was not independent from other traditional markers on multivariate analysis. Our results demonstrate that both CAV1 and CAV2 are associated with basal-like phenotype. Further studies are warranted to determine whether they play an oncogenic role in basal-like/triple-negative breast cancer development or are just surrogate markers for this subgroup.

Abstract
PURPOSE Caveolae are non-clathrin, flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane. Caveolin-1 is an essential constituent of caveolae and as such acts as a regulator of caveolae-dependent lipid trafficking and endocytosis. Caveolin-1 interacts with a variety of cellular proteins and regulates cell-signaling events. Caveolin-1 appears to act as a tumor suppressor protein at early stages of cancer progression. However, a growing body of evidence indicates that caveolin-1 is up-regulated in several multidrug-resistant and metastatic cancer cell lines and human tumor specimens. Furthermore, caveolin-1 levels are positively correlated with tumor stage and grade in numerous cancer types. CONCLUSION The available experimental data support the tumor-promoting role of caveolin-1 in advanced-stage cancer.

Abstract
Caveolin-1, an essential scaffold protein of caveolae and cellular transport processes, lately gained recognition as a stage- and tissue-specific tumor modulator in vivo. Patient studies and rodent models corroborated its janus-faced role as a tumor suppressor in non-neoplastic tissue, its down-regulation (loss of function) upon transformation and its re-expression (regain of function) in advanced-stage metastatic and multidrug resistant tumors. This review is focussed on the role of caveolin-1 in metastasis and angiogenesis and its clinical implications as a prognostic marker in cancer progression.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship of caveolin-1 expression with prognosis in patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the upper urinary tract (TCCUUT). Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections of TCC-UUT from 98 patients, who had undergone radical nephroureterectomy, were stained immunohistochemically using antibodies against caveolin-1. The expression pattern of caveolin- 1 was compared with the clinicopathological variables. The caveolin-1 expression was significantly correlated with T stage (p<0.001) and grade (p=0.036). The survival rate of patients with caveolin-1 positive tumors was significantly lower than that of patients with caveolin-1 negative tumors (p<0.0001). The univariate analyses identified T stage, grade, and caveolin-1 expression as significant prognostic factors for cancer-specific survival, whereas the multivariate analyses indicated that T stage and caveolin-1 expression were independent prognostic factors. These results show that the increased expression of caveolin-1 is associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in TCC-UUT, suggesting that caveolin-1 may play an important role in the progression of TCC-UUT.

Abstract
With an overall 5 year survival rate as low as 15% for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), even with surgical intervention and the use of newer molecules in adjuvant chemotherapy, there is an urgent need for new biological targets and associated novel anti-cancer agents. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the potential of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase alpha1 subunit as a novel target in NSCLC and revealed that alpha1 expression is markedly higher in a significant proportion of NSCLC clinical samples compared to normal lung tissue. Furthermore, reduction in alpha1 expression in A549 NSCLC cells by anti-alpha1 siRNA resulted in markedly impaired proliferation and migration of these cancer cells. Finally, of three cardenolides investigated, UNBS1450, which is known to bind to Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and displays potent anti-tumour activity in vivo in experimental models of human NSCLCs, is the most potent inhibitor of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase isozymes (alpha1beta1, alpha2beta1 and alpha3beta1), most strikingly of alpha1beta1. This was reflected in the compound's more potent anti-proliferative activity in all NSCLC cell lines evaluated (A549, Cal-12T, NCI-H727 and A427); the first three of which over-express alpha1. The marked impairment in A549 NSCLC cell proliferation and migration, and resulting similar morphology following anti-alpha1 siRNA or UNBS1450 treatment, was associated with features of abnormal cytokinesis, mediated in the case of UNBS1450 by disorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Collectively these data strongly suggest that targeting the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase alpha1 using specific cardenolides could represent a novel means to combat certain NSCLCs.

Abstract
Bronchiolization is a key process in fibrosing lung in which the proliferative status of bronchiolar epithelium changes, leading to abnormal epithelial morphology. Within the context that caveolin-1 acts to suppress epithelial proliferation, we postulated that stimulating epithelial injury would lead to caveolin-1 downregulation and encourage proliferation. The present study evaluates the expression of caveolin-1, especially in bronchiolization, in C57BL/6J mice with bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis and in various types of re-epithelialization in human interstitial pneumonias (IPs). Immunohistochemically, levels of caveolin-1 decreased in the bronchiolar epithelium of mice treated with bleomycin. Levels of caveolin-1 mRNA in the whole lung were decreased at 7 and 14 days. Caveolin-1 mRNA was also decreased in laser-capture microdissection- retrieved bronchiolar epithelial cells at 7 days. Among patients with 12 IPs, including four usual IPs (UIPs) and eight nonspecific IPs (NSIPs), whole lung caveolin-1 was significantly decreased compared with 12 controls at both mRNA and protein levels. By scoring immunointensity, caveolin-1 was significantly reduced in bronchiolization and squamous metaplasia as well as in bronchiolar epithelium in 23 IPs (12 UIPs and 11 NSIPs) compared with bronchiolar epithelium from seven controls. These data suggested that loss of caveolin-1 is associated with abnormal re-epithelialization in lung fibrosis.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) protein has been documented in several neoplasms with a controversial role in cell proliferation, tumour development and progression. The aim of the present study was to investigate the Cav-1 immunohistochemical expression in human meningiomas. Sixty-two cases, classified as 11 meningothelial (17%), 12 transitional (19%), 5 fibrous (8%), 3 microcystic (5%), 3 secretory (5%), 1 clear cell (2%), 1 chordoid (2%) and 26 (42%) atypical meningiomas, were selected from our pathological files. Clinico-pathological data, including Ki-67 values and survival data were also available. Ten leptomeningeal samples were utilized as normal tissue control. For each case, a polyclonal antibody against Cav-1 was applied and an intensity distribution (ID) score was determined. The Cav-1 immunoexpression was found in 95% of meningiomas with a variable ID score, while only minimal, not uniform, reactivity was noted in non-neoplastic meninges. Of note, higher Cav-1 ID score was significantly correlated with tumour site, Simpson's grade, histological type, higher histologic grade, Ki-67 labelling index > or = 4% and clinical course. Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a significantly worse survival in patients with higher Cav-1 ID score, Ki-67 > or = 4% and 2-3 Simpson grade. Multivariate analysis indicated that only Ki-67 was an independent prognostic factor. Increased immunoexpression of the Cav-1 seems to be associated with the biological aggressiveness of meningiomas, reflecting a worse prognosis.

Abstract
H-REV107-1, a known member of the class II tumor suppressor gene family, is involved in the regulation of differentiation and survival. We analyzed H-REV107-1 in non-small cell lung carcinomas, in normal lung, and in immortalized and tumor-derived cell lines. Sixty-eight percent of lung tumors revealed positive H-REV107-1-specific staining. Furthermore, survival analysis demonstrated a significant association of cytoplasmic H-REV107-1 with decreased patient survival. This suggested that H-REV107-1, known as a tumor suppressor, plays a different role in non-small cell lung carcinomas. Knock-down of H-REV107-1 expression in lung carcinoma cells inhibited anchorage-dependent and anchorage-independent growth whereas overexpression of H-REV107-1 induced tumor cell proliferation. Consistent with results of the survival analysis, cytoplasmic localization of the protein was essential for this growth-inducing function. Analysis of signaling pathways potentially involved in this process demonstrated that overexpression of H-REV107-1 stimulated RAS-GTPase activity, ERK1,2 phosphorylation, and caveolin-1 expression in the cell lines analyzed. These results indicate that H-REV107-1 is deficient in its function as a tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung carcinomas and is required for proliferation and anchorage-independent growth in cells expressing high levels of the protein, thus contributing to tumor progression in a subset of non-small cell lung carcinomas.

Abstract
We measured spontaneous photon emission and delayed luminescence from human cancerous lung tissue and compared with those from adjacent normal lung tissue. For the detection of extremely weak photon emission from tissue we used a sensitive photomultiplier tube attached to a dark chamber. The samples were illuminated with a metal halide lamp for measurement of delayed luminescence. Extracted samples from surgery were measured within an hour. We found that the delayed luminescence showed salient aspects in making discrimination between tumor and adjacent normal tissue. Squamous cell carcinoma had more prominent character in delayed luminescence than adenocarcinoma.
