DDX3 suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma progression through modulating the secretion and composition of exosome
AJCR Copyright © 2023..
Due to the lack of predictive biomarkers and the lack of conspicuous symptoms at the early stage, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains difficult to diagnose and treat effectively. During cancer development, exosomes secreted from tumor cells carry functional molecules to surrounding recipient cells, thereby participating in the regulation of cancer progression. DDX3, a DEAD-box RNA helicase, performs many important functions in several cellular processes and is therefore implicated as a tumor suppressor in HCC. However, whether DDX3 affects the secretion and cargo sorting of HCC exosomes remains obscure. In this study, our results revealed that reduced DDX3 expression in HCC cells promoted the release of exosomes and enhanced the expression of several exosome biogenesis-associated proteins, such as exosome markers (e.g., TSG101, Alix, and CD63) and Rab proteins (e.g., Rab5, Rab11, and Rab35). By double knockdown of the expression of DDX3 and these exosome biogenesis-related factors, we confirmed that DDX3 participated in the regulation of exosome secretion by modulating the expression of these cellular factors in HCC cells. In addition, exosomes derived from DDX3-knockdown HCC cells enhanced cancer stem cell properties, including self-renewal capability, migration, and drug resistance, in recipient HCC cells. Moreover, up-regulation of the exosome markers TSG101, Alix, and CD63 as well as down-regulation of tumor-suppressive miR-200b and miR-200c were observed in exosomes derived from DDX3-knockdown HCC cells, which may account for the enhanced hepatic cancer stemness of the recipient cells treated with DDX3-knockdown HCC cell-derived exosomes. Taken together, our findings provide a new molecular mechanism supporting the tumor-suppressor role of DDX3 in HCC, which may contribute to the development of new therapeutic strategies against HCC.
