Immunohistochemical procedure and STOX1-A expression evaluation methods are described in reference (X.Wu, X.Zhang, L.Yu, C.Zhang, L.Ye, D.Ren, Y.Li, X.Sun, L.Yu, Y.Ouyang, X.Chen, L.Song, P.Liu, X.Lin, zinc finger protein 367promotes metastasis by inhibiting the Hippo pathway in breast cancer,Oncogene, (2020)). The following is a brief description: frozen sections were fixed with 4% formalin solution for 10min, added with TE (pH 9.0) buffer, microwaved for 10min for antigen retrieval, and antibody diluted with antibody dilution (Abcam, USA) at a ratio of 1:100 followed by sequential addition of hydrogen peroxide and goat serum blocking solution and incubation overnight in a wet chamber at 4 ℃. After the incubation, the sections were washed with TBS/0.05% Tween 20, added with biotin-conjugated secondary antibodies (Proteintech, china) and peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin (Proteintech, china), incubated at 37℃for 30 min, and stained with 3,3' -Diaminobenzidine (DAB) enhanced liquid substrate system (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). The expression of STOX1-A was further assessed by taking the average of the Staining Index (SI) given by two independent investigators. Tumor cell proportion scoring: 0 (no positive tumor cells); 1 (positive tumor cells < 10%); 2 (10-35% positive tumor cells); 3 (35-70% positive tumor cells) and 4 (> 70% positive tumor cells). The staining intensity was graded according to the following criteria: 0 (no staining); 1 (weak staining, pale yellow); 2 (medium dyeing, yellow-brown) and 3 (intense dyeing, brown). SI is calculated as the product of staining intensity score and positive tumor cell proportion. Based on this evaluation method, SI was used to evaluate STOX1-A expression in hepatocellular carcinoma samples, scoring 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, or 12 points. SI score 4 is the median of SI for all sample organization. High and low the expression of STOX1-A was stratified according to the following criteria: SI.ltoreq.4 is used to define tumors with STOX1-A low expression and SI score >4 as high expression tumors.
Animal study
8 week old BALB/c-nu mice were purchased from the university of Guangzhou traditional Chinese medicine laboratory animal center and bred according to institutional guidelines. Mice were randomly divided into 3 groups (6 per group) and indicator cells HepG2 (1X 10) 6 ) Is injected into the subcutaneous tissues of the inguinal folds of mice, forms any primary tumor, euthanizes at the end point, resects tumor tissue and is embedded in paraffin. H for tumor tissue section&e staining and histological examination of STOX1-A and Ki-67 staining, methods for counting tumor cell numbers are described in (J.Chen, A.Liu, Z.Lin, B.Wang, X.Chai, S.Chen, W.Lu, M.Zheng, T.Cao, M.Zhong, R.Li, M.Wu, Z.Lu, W.Pang, W.Huang, L.Xiao, D.Lin, Z.Wang, F.Lei, X.Chen, W.Long, Y.Zheng, Q.Chen, J.Zeng, D.Ren, J.Li, X.Zhang, Y.Huang, downregulation of the circadian rhythm regulator HLF promotes multiple-organ distant metastases in non-small cell lung Cancer through PPAR/NF-kappa signaling, cancer letters,482 (2020) 56-71.).
Statistical analysis
All values are expressed as mean ± Standard Deviation (SD). Significant differences were determined using GraphPad 5.0 software (united states). Statistical differences between the two groups were determined using student t-test. Statistical differences between multiple tests were determined using one-way anova. P < 0.05 is statistically significant for the differences. All experiments were repeated three times.
Example 1
We first analyzed the expression of STOX1 in HCC in the Tumor genomic profile (the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)) dataset, and the results showed high expression of STOX1 in HCC hepatocellular carcinoma tissue (Tumor) relative to paracancerous normal tissue (ANT), as shown in fig. 1.
To further clarify the expression levels of the STOX1 isoforms in HCC hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, the expression of STOX1-A (NM-152709) and STOX1-B (NM-001130159) were tested, and the difference in expression of STOX1-A isoforms was statistically more significant than that of STOX1-B isoforms in paracancerous normal tissues, as shown in FIG. 2.
Example 2
We further analyzed STOX1-A expression in clinical specimens. Using real-time quantitative PCR and Westernblot analysis, STOX1-A mRNA and protein levels were expressed in HCC hepatocellular carcinoma tissue at a higher level than in paracancerous normal tissue, and the results are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
STOX1-A expression was further tested by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 47 benign liver disease tissues and 221 HCC hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, and staining was performed as shown in FIG. 5. The results of significantly elevated levels of STOX1-A expression in HCC hepatocellular carcinoma tissue compared to benign liver tissue are shown in FIG. 6. Further stratification of HCC samples according to SI score, the higher the SI score of the STOX1-A highly expressed HCC samples, the higher the severity of HCC, and the results are shown in FIG. 7.
Further analysis of STOX1-A expression levels was able to determine HCC severity, and the results showed that the expression levels were further increased as HCC was fractionated, T-staging and clinical total staging were increased, and the results are shown in FIGS. 8-10. The survival curve analysis results showed that STOX1-A high expression correlated significantly positively with poor progression free survival prognosis for HCC patients, as shown in FIG. 11.
Thus, the present invention has demonstrated that STOX1-A can be a diagnostic marker for HCC; STOX1-A has also been shown to be a prognostic marker for HCC.
Example 3
Stable cell lines for high and low expression of STOX1-A were established in HCC cell lines HepG2 and HuH7, as shown in FIG. 12. The effect of intervention of STOX1-A expression on tumorigenesis in HCC was examined by in vivo animal experiments in mice. As shown in FIGS. 13-16, silencing STOX1-A reduces tumor weight and volume, and staining index of Ki-67; silencing STOX1-A reduced SI score of mouse tumors, as shown in FIG. 17. In conclusion, silencing STOX1-A inhibits HCC hepatoma cells from forming tumors in vivo.
Thus, the present invention has demonstrated that silencing STOX1-A can inhibit tumor growth and improve tumor progression, and thus STOX1-A can be a drug target for HCC treatment.
