ABSTRACT Objective: This study was designed to explore the expression and significance of acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family

member 4 (ACSL4), transferrin receptor (TFRC) and the crucial mediator of Hippo signaling Yes-associated protein (YAP) in mesothe­

lioma tissues, and to study the regulation of YAP activation in migration, invasion and ferroptosis sensitivity of mesothelioma cells.

Methods: Tissue microarray containing specimens from 30 mesothelioma patients and 10 normal mesothelium was used. Immunohisto-

chemistry was applied to examine the expression of YAP, ACSL4 and TFRC, and the correlations between the expression of the proteins

were analyzed. The GEPIA database was also applied to explore the expression of YAP, ACSL4 and TFRC. Constitutively active YAP

mutant, SI27A (serine-127 mutated to alanine) was transfected into mesothelioma 211H cells using retrovirus system, and the ACSL4

and TFRC mRNA levels were examined by real-time PCR. Cells were subjected to an invasion assay and a wound healing assay to exam­

ine the invasion and migration potential. Erastin was used to induce ferroptosis and cell death was analyzed by SYTOX Green staining

followed by flow cytometry. Results: We found elevated nuclear YAP, ACSL4 and TFRC levels in mesothelioma tissues compared with

normal mesothelium (nuclear YAP: P<0.001, ACSL4: P<0.001, TFRC: P<0.0001). ACSL4 was positively correlated with TFRC (Spear­

man r=0.61, P=0.0003) and nuclear YAP (Spearman r=0.4872, P=0.0063). In GEPIA database, the mRNA level of ACSL4 was positively

correlated with YAP(Spearman r=0.33, P=0.0019) and TFRC (Spearman r=0.52, P=0.0000). YAPS127A mutant increased mRNA lev-

els of ACSL4 and TFRC, enhanced migration and invasion potentials of 211H cells, and sensitized ferroptosis of cells. Conclusions: YAP

and ACSL4 showed positive correlation with TFRC expression, in mesothelioma tissues. YAP activation increased migration and inva­

sion of cells, but at the same time sensitized ferroptosis of cells by upregulating expression of ACSL4 and TFRC. YAP, ACSL4 and

TFRC might become potential bio-markers for indicating ferroptosis sensitivity of mesothelioma.

铁死亡诱导存在不同程度的抵抗,促进铁死亡的小分子化合物

更易杀伤高表达间质标志的癌细胞[8@。具有去分化特征的肿

瘤细胞及耐药肿瘤细胞对铁死亡诱导更为敏感[234。因此,筛选

预示铁死亡敏感性的标志物,不仅可以筛选更适宜给予铁死亡

瘤细胞、去分化恶性细胞及化疗药物逃逸的耐药细胞细胞,使

铁死亡成为更为有效的肿瘤治疗策略。

在恶性间皮瘤患者组织常出现Hippo通路失调,如可编码

膜突样蛋白(merlin)的抑癌基因NF2及LATS2失活Hippo

失调可抑制YAP的磷酸化,活化YAP信号,从而影响下游基

因转录。本实验发现细胞核YAP、ACSL4及TFRC在间皮瘤组

织中表达明显高于正常间皮组织,且三者具有正相关性,而

YAP激活可显著上调ACSL4及TFRC在间皮瘤细胞系中的

mRNA水平。Wu等间发现YAP可通过TEAD4结合于ACSL4

及TFRC启动子区并调控其表达。结合作者的工作,认为在间

皮瘤病人组织中YAP的过度激活与铁死亡相关基因ACSL4

及TFRC的表达增强密切相关。

ACSL4参与磷脂酰乙醇胺或磷脂酰肌醇等易氧化膜磷脂

的合成,促进多不饱和脂肪酸发生脂质过氧化,从而参与铁死

转铁蛋白(TransferrinJF)通过与细胞表面上的TFRC结合形

浓度,增强细胞对铁死亡诱导的敏感性W71。本实验发现,YAP

激活可显著增强间皮瘤细胞系对erastin诱导铁死亡的反应,推

测由YAP下游ACSL4及TFRC介导。

另一方面,本实验发现YAP作为致癌基因,其激活增强间

瘤细胞周期相关基因CCND1及FOXM1促进细胞增殖。在多

种肿瘤中,YAP通路激活与EMT及肿瘤耐药相关%30】。本实验

发现,YAP通路激活虽增强细胞恶性行为,但同时增强肿瘤细

胞对铁死亡诱导的敏感性。通过诱导铁死亡杀灭具有YAP激

活特性的肿瘤细胞亚群不仅可能有效消灭原位肿瘤,还可能抑

制肿瘤转移,杀伤耐药细胞及EMT细胞,成为潜在的肿瘤治疗

策略。

综上所述,本研究认为间皮瘤组织中YAP通路激活通过

ACSL4及丁FRC增强铁死亡敏感性,YAP、ACSL4及丁FRC有

望成为临床预测间皮瘤铁死亡敏感性的生物学标志物,从而筛

选适合实施铁死亡疗法的病例,为恶性间皮瘤的铁死亡治疗提

供新的策略。
