Description

Application of protein INF2 in preparation of liver cancer diagnosis marker
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of molecular biology, and particularly relates to application of INF2 protein as a liver cancer diagnosis marker.
Background
Primary Liver Cancer (PLC) is an insidious, highly fatal malignant tumor. According to the data published by GLOBOCAN 2020, liver cancer is the sixth most common cancer and the third most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer pathology. Hepatitis b has been a major cause of HCC, and in recent years, the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma caused by metabolic factors such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been increasing year by year. Early HCC patients were first treated with surgical resection, liver transplantation and local radio frequency ablation, while middle patients were the first choice for hepatic artery embolization chemotherapy (TACE) and late HCC patients were first treated systemically. The prognosis of HCC is closely related to the stage of tumor, the 5-year survival rate of patients with early HCC exceeds 70 percent after standard treatment, the median survival rate of patients with late HCC after systemic treatment is only 1 to 1.5 years, and the 5-year survival rate of liver cancer is 18 percent all over the world. China is a big country with hepatitis B, new cases of HCC are more than half of the world, and the 5-year survival rate is only about 12%. Liver cancer is a global health challenge and a serious medical problem, and early diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice are extremely important for improving prognosis. With the increase of incidence of liver cancer, people deeply research the pathogenesis of HCC, more and more molecular markers are found to be related to the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of liver cancer, and the research on the molecular mechanism and the biomarker related to liver cancer has important significance on the early diagnosis, early treatment and prognosis evaluation of liver cancer. Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that continuously fission and fuse within cells to eventually form a stable state, a process known as mitochondrial dynamics. New evidence suggests that dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics contributes to the development and progression of tumors, that different types of tumor cells exhibit mitochondrial fragmentation, and that inhibition of mitochondrial division reduces various tumor cell growth, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and migration.
The liver cells are rich in mitochondria, a large number of mitochondria are involved in key metabolic processes such as hepatic tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and beta oxidation of free fatty acid, and maintain hepatic homeostasis, and mitochondrial dysfunction can cause a series of liver diseases. The continuous accumulation of damaged mitochondria is an important reason for liver cancer occurrence, and liver cancer has strong migration and invasion capacity and is easy to relapse and transfer, which is also inseparable from mitochondrial dynamics disorder. Research shows that the liver cancer tissue has hyperfunction of mitochondria division, and in the highly metastatic liver cancer, the hyperfunction of mitochondria division and the fragmentation of mitochondria are particularly obvious.
trans-Formin protein 2 (INF 2) is an atypical, transparent related Formin protein that plays an important role in the polymerization and depolymerization of actin. The current research finds that the dysfunction of mitochondria caused by INF2 mediated mitochondrial dynamics can influence the tumorigenesis and development and is related to the tumor prognosis. The expression level of INF2 in HCC is mainly explored by an immunohistochemistry technology, the possibility that INF2 serves as a liver cancer marker is discussed, meanwhile, the influence of INF2 on proliferation and migration of the HCC is found in liver cancer cells by a clone formation and scratch experiment and a 2.2.19 Transwell migration experiment, and the method is beneficial to early diagnosis of liver cancer, research and development of targeted antitumor drugs, prognosis evaluation and the like, so that accurate medical treatment and individualized treatment are realized. At present, no relevant research report about INF2 as a diagnostic marker in liver cancer is published at home and abroad.

7. Analysis of results
The experiment ensures that the experimental data and the collected original clinical data are comprehensively checked, corrected and collated, and ensures that the data are complete, accurate and error-free as possible. Then, an organization database and a cell database are respectively established by using Excel software, and related clinical original data are grouped and summarized and then are recorded into a form. And finally, utilizing SPSS 26.0 statistical software to carry out arrangement and analysis on the final experimental data. All data statistical tests are carried out according to the test level of alpha =0.05, and if P is less than 0.05, the difference between the two groups is considered to have statistical significance, otherwise, the difference is considered to have no statistical significance. The plotting of the experimental result graphs such as bar graph and line graph is completed by using GraphPad Prism 9.0 and SPSS 26.0 software.
2. Results of the experiment
To examine the expression of INF2 in liver cancer tissues, 50 formalin-fixed human liver cancer tissue specimens were collected, embedded and paraffin sectioned, and the expression level of INF2 in clinical specimens was examined by immunohistochemical staining. Immunohistochemical staining results show that INF2 staining is brownish yellow with different shades and is mainly positioned in cytoplasm of liver cancer tissues and tissues beside the cancer, a small amount of INF2 is positioned on cell membranes, and compared with the liver cancer tissues, INF2 is weakly expressed or not expressed in the corresponding tissues beside the cancer. The immunohistochemical staining images were analyzed by using Image J software, and the results showed that the level of INF2 expression in the liver cancer tissues was concentrated on three levels, namely negative (score 1), low Positive (score 2) and Positive (score 3) (fig. 1 a). Meanwhile, in liver cancer tissues, the positive expression rate of INF2 is 86% (43/50), while that of para-carcinoma tissues is only 46% (23/50), and the difference is statistically significant (X2 =17.825, P < 0.05). The expression level of INF2 in liver cancer tissues was significantly higher than that of corresponding paracarcinoma tissues (P < 0.001) (FIG. 1 b).
In order to follow up cellular functional experiments in which we further validated the function of INF2 protein, we screened INF2 knockout cell lines. We knocked out INF2 in HepG2 using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, selected INF2 knocked out cell colonies, and further confirmed using western immunoblotting and DNA sequencing techniques. The final result shows that cell colonies 2 and 6 are INF2 knockout cell strains, DNA sequencing shows that INF2-KO6 is liver cancer cell colonies with correct INF2 knockout, INF2-KO6 is cultured in an enlarged mode and cell function experiments are supplemented (figure 2), and the cell strains can stably knockout the INF2 endogenous in the cells and form a control with the high-expression INF2 transfected in a transient state.
In experiments to further verify the influence of INF2 on the proliferation and migration capacity of liver cancer cells, a clone formation experiment, a cell scratch experiment and a Transwell migration experiment are adopted. The clone formation experiment shows that the number of cell colonies in the INF2 high expression group is obviously increased compared with that in the wild liver cancer cell, and the INF2-KO6 group has no statistical significance compared with the Control group (FIG. 3. A and b). Indicating that INF2 has the capability of promoting the proliferation of liver cancer cells.
Cell scratch test results suggest that up-regulation of INF2 expression promotes HepG2 cell migration (fig. 4. A and b). Transwell migration experiments showed that the number of cells penetrating the Transwell chamber in the INF2 high expressing group was significantly increased in HepG2 cells compared to the Control group (FIGS. 5. A and b). Indicating that INF2 has the capability of promoting the migration of liver cancer cells.
These results suggest that detection of INF2 protein is of high value relative to diagnosis of liver cancer.
The invention provides a detection method with high sensitivity, strong specificity, short period and stable result by detecting the expression of INF2 in liver cancer tissues and the influence of high expression and low expression of INF2 on proliferation and migration of liver cancer cells and combining with a statistical principle and a modern biological technology, thereby providing scientific basis for diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer patients and providing possibility for molecular targeted treatment.
The above description is not intended to limit the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Those skilled in the art should also realize that changes, modifications, additions and substitutions can be made without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention.
