摘要:
Neurensin‑2 (NRSN2) has been reported to act as an oncogene in several types of human cancer. However, the molecular mechanism of NRSN2 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains to be elucidated.The mRNA expression levels of NRSN2 in ESCC tissues and cell lines were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The protein expression levels of NRSN2 in ESCC tissues were measured by Immunohistochemical (IHC) method. Luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were conducted to confirm the upstream transcription factor of NRSN2. Loss- and gain-function assays were conducted to evaluate the effects of NRSN2 on ESCC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion. The function of NRSN2 was validated in vivo using tumor xenografts. The relationship between NRSN2 and AKT/mTOR pathway were confirmed by western blot assay.The expression level of NRSN2 was increased in ESCC tissues and cell lines. High expression level of NRSN2 was correlated with depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, and poor prognosis of ESCC patients. NRSN2 was transcribed by E2F1. Knockdown of NRSN2 significantly inhibited ESCC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion, whereas NRSN2 overexpression showed reverse phenotypes. Overexpression of NRSN2 also enhanced ESCC tumorigenicity in vivo. Furthermore, the E2F1/NRSN2 axis promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of ESCC cells by activating the AKT/mTOR pathway.NRSN2 is a direct transcriptional target of E2F1 to promote tumor progression in ESCC. NRSN2 may be a diagnostic biomarker or treatment target for ESCC.Copyright © 2022 The Authors. Published by Elsevier GmbH.. All rights reserved.
