BACKGROUND:The study aims to investigate the potential of aptamers as diagnostic and targeted therapeutic tools for gastric cancer (GC) and other cancer types through the cell-systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (cell-SELEX) process. GC is associated with high global incidence rates and a substantial lack of effective targeted therapies. Aptamers have emerged as a promising innovation for both the diagnosis and targeted treatment of various cancers. METHODS:Cell-SELEX process was employed to screen for aptamers specific to GC cells, utilizing the GC cell lines HGC-27, MKN-45, SNU-638, and NUGC-3 as target cells. Aptamer affinity, specificity, and biological properties were evaluated through flow cytometry, and mass spectrometry was utilized to identify potential target proteins. RESULTS:Aptamer-gastric cancer (APT-GC) is efficiently internalized by GC cell lines (HGC-27, MKN-45, SNU-638, NUGC-3) through receptor-mediated endocytosis at concentrations up to 300 nM, with intracellular stability for at least 2 hours and stability in serum for up to 6 hours. Furthermore, APT-GC is internalized by various cancer cell types, suggesting its potential for broad application in pan-cancer diagnosis and treatment. CONCLUSION:APT-GC exhibits high affinity for GC cells and can also be internalized by diverse cancer cell types, positioning it as a versatile diagnostic and therapeutic agent for a wide range of cancers.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent and highly malignant tumor with a limited response to immune checkpoint inhibitor-based immunotherapy. There is an urgent need for novel immunomodulatory agents to enhance the immunotherapeutic response in CRC. Hedyotis diffusa, known for its immunomodulatory properties, has long been utilized as an adjunct in cancer treatment, positioning it as a potential source for discovering new tumor immunomodulators. In this study, we identified a polysaccharide derived from Hedyotis diffusa (HDP), comprising six monosaccharides: rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, xylose, and mannose. When combined with PD-1 and CTLA-4 inhibitors, HDP can boost systemic immunity in mice to enhance the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors in CRC therapy. HDP significantly increases the infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells into tumor microenvironment and upregulates the expression of key effector molecules derived from cytotoxic T cells. Mechanistic studies reveal that HDP activates the IL-2/IL-2R axis by upregulating IL-2 production and the expression of IL-2 receptor subunits, thereby promoting T cell proliferation. Collectively, this research introduces an innovative strategy to improve the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy by harnessing the immunomodulatory potential of polysaccharides. It also directs a roadmap for developing HDP as a promising immunomodulator for CRC treatment.
Introduction: Cervical cancer (CC) ranks as the fourth most prevalent malignant tumor among women worldwide, and is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality. GuiErBai (GEB), a compound preparation developed by our research team, is derived from the ancient Chinese medicine of the Miao nationality and is comprised of podophyllotoxin (PTOX), imperatorin, isoimperatorin, and A. dahurica alkaloids. These individual components have demonstrated notable efficacy in tumor treatment. However, the specific anti-tumor effect of the compound Chinese medicine GEB in the context of CC has yet to be validated.Methods: HeLa and SiHa cell lines were utilized for in vitro experiments and treated with 5 mg/mL and 10 mg/mL GEB concentrations, respectively. The cell cycle changes after GEB treatment were assessed using flow cytometry. Transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe autophagic bodies and apoptotic bodies, while MDC staining evaluated the occurrence of autophagy. CCK-8 was used to observe the effect of GEB on cell proliferation, and Transwell assays assessed cell migration and invasion. Western blotting detected cell cycle and apoptosis-related protein expression, along with the expression level of autophagy-related protein LC3I/II. Changes in ROS and mitochondrial membrane potential in cervical cancer cells following GEB treatment were determined using ROS detection and mitochondrial membrane potential detection kits. For the in vivo experiment, a nude mouse model of cervical cancer transplantation based on HeLa cells was established. Experimental animals were divided into negative control, positive control, high-dose GEB (10 mg/mL), and low-dose GEB (5 mg/mL) groups.Results: In HeLa and SiHa cell lines, the G0/G1 phase of tumor cells significantly decreased (p < 0.001), while the G2/M phase increased notably (p < 0.001) following various GEB treatments. Electron microscopy showed GEB promoted apoptotic body and autophagosome formation in both cell lines. Compared to untreated HeLa and SiHa cells, GEB-treated cells exhibited significantly reduced caspase3 protein expression, and substantially increased autophagy-related protein LC3I/II expression. GEB treatment significantly reduced migration and invasion capabilities in both cell lines (p < 0.001), while ROS content and mitochondrial membrane potential were significantly elevated (p < 0.001). GEB effectively inhibited cervical cancer cell proliferation, with the optimal concentration being 10 mg/mL. A successful nude mouse model of cervical cancer transplantation was established using HeLa cells. Post-GEB treatment, the tumor volume and weight in nude mice significantly decreased (p < 0.001), with diminished expression of CD34, VEGF, and caspase3 proteins in tumor tissues.Discussion: GEB exhibits a robust antitumor effect against cervical cancer, both in vitro and in vivo, in a concentration-dependent manner, by regulating autophagy and apoptosis of tumor cells.
It has been claimed that Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (PSs) can degrade into oligosaccharide and then transform into short-chain fatty acids in the intestine after oral administration, and play an anti-colitis-associated cancer (CAC) effect by inhibiting intestinal inflammation. However, the material basis and core chemical structure underlying the anti-colon cancer properties of PSs have not yet been elucidated. In this study, PSs were degraded into enzymatic oligosaccharides (OSs) using β-mannanase. The results of in vivo experiments revealed that PSs and OSs administered by gastric lavage had similar antitumor effects in CAC mice. OS-1 (Oligosaccharide compounds 1) and OS-2 (Oligosaccharide compounds 2) were further purified and characterized from OSs, and it was found that OS-1, OS-2, OSs, and PSs had similar and consistent anti-inflammatory activities in vitro. Chemical structure comparison and evaluation revealed that the chemical structure of β-D-Manp-(1 → 4)-β-D-Glcp corresponding to OS-1 was the least common PS structure with anti-colitic activity. Therefore, our findings suggest that OSs are the material basis for PSs to exert anti-CAC activity and that the chemical structure of β-D-Manp-(1 → 4)-β-D-Glcp corresponding to OS-1 is the core chemical structure of PSs against CAC.

We investigated the antitumor effects of four fractions of Dendrobium officinale Kimura & Migo (D. officinale) polysaccharides with different molecular weights (Mw), Astragalus membranaceus polysaccharides (APS) and Lentinus edodes polysaccharides (LNT) on colorectal cancer (CRC) using a zebrafish xenograft model. Transcriptome sequencing was performed to further explore the possible antitumor mechanisms of D. officinale polysaccharides. Fractions of D. officinale polysaccharides, LNT, and APS could significantly inhibit the growth of HT-29 cells in a zebrafish xenograft model. One fraction of D. officinale polysaccharides called DOPW-1 (Mw of 389.98 kDa) exhibited the strongest tumor inhibition. Compared with the control group, RNA-seq revealed that the DOPW-1–treated experimental group had 119 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which 45 had upregulated expression and 74 had downregulated expression. Analyses using Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes suggested that the pathway “apoptosis-multiple species” was the most significantly enriched. Our data indicated that 1) fractions of D. officinale polysaccharides of Mw 389.98 kDa were most suitable against CRC; 2) DOPW-1 could be developed into a clinical agent against CRC; and 3) an apoptosis pathway is important for DOPW-1 to inhibit the proliferation of HT-29 cells.
