Ciwujianoside E inhibits Burkitt lymphoma cell proliferation and invasion by blocking ENO1-plasminogen interaction and TGF-β1 activation - 23/07/24
Abstract |
Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is a rare and highly aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although the outcomes of patients with BL have greatly improved, options for patients with relapsed and refractory BL are limited. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve BL therapeutics and to develop novel drugs with reduced toxicity. In this study, we demonstrated that enolase 1 (ENO1) is a potential novel drug target for BL treatment. We determined that ENO1 was aberrantly upregulated in BL, which was closely related to its invasiveness and poor clinical outcomes. Furthermore, using RNA interference, we demonstrated that ENO1 depletion significantly inhibited cell proliferation and invasion both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we established that ENO1 knockdown suppressed the PI3K-AKT and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signaling pathways by reducing plasminogen (PLG) recruitment, plasmin (PL) generation, and TGF-β1 activation. Addition of activated TGF-β1 protein to the culture medium of shENO1 cells reversed the inhibitory effects on cell proliferation and invasion, as well as those on the PI3K-AKT and EMT signaling pathways. Notably, our research led to the discovery of a novel ENO1-PLG interaction inhibitor, Ciwujianoside E (L-06). L-06 effectively disrupts the interaction between ENO1 and PLG, consequently reducing PL generation and suppressing TGF-β1 activation. In both in vitro and in vivo experiments, L-06 exerted impressive antitumor effects. In summary, our study elucidated the critical role of ENO1 in BL cell proliferation and invasion and introduced a novel ENO1 inhibitor, which holds promise for improving the treatment of patients with BL in the future.
