METHODS: Differences in mitochondrial TRAP-1 gene expression between primary CRC with LNM (LNM CRC) and without LNM (non-LNM CRC) were assessed in 96 Chinese colorectal carcinoma samples using quantita- tive RT-PCR analysis, Western blotting, and confirmed with immunohistochemical assay. The relationship between clinicopathological parameters and potential diaclnostic biomarkers was also examined.RESULTS: TRAP-1 was significantly upregulated in LNM CRC compared with non-LNM CRC, which was confirmed by RT-PCR, Western blotting and immuno- histochemical assay. The expression of TRAP-1 in two different metastatic potential human colorectal cancer cell lines, LoVo and HT29, was analyzed with Western blotting. The expression level of TRAP-1 was dramati- cally higher in LoVo than in HT29. Overexpression of TRAP-1 was significantly associated with LNM (90.2% in LNM group vs 22% in non-LNM group, P 〈 0.001), the advanced tumor node metastasis stage (89.1% in LNM group vs 26.9% in non-LNM group, P 〈 0.001), the increased 5-year recurrence rate (82.7% in LNM group vs 22.6% in non-LNM group, P 〈 0.001) and the decreased 5-year overall survival rate (48.4% in LNM vs 83.2% in non-LNM group, P 〈 0.001). Univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that TRAP-1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for recurrence and survival of CRC patients (Hazard ratio of 2.445 in recurrence, P = 0.017; 2.867 in survival, P = 0.028). CONCLUSION: Mitochondria TRAP-1 affects the lymph node metastasis in CRC, and may be a potential bio- marker for LNM and a prognostic factor in CRC. Over- expression of TRAP-1 is a predictive factor for the poor outcome of colorectal cancer patients. 2012 Baishideng. All rights reserved展开更多
Interferon regulatory factor (IRF)3 is critical for the transcriptional induction of chemokines and cytokines during viral or bacterial invasion.

The kinases Tank binding kinase (TBK)1 and Ikappa B kinase (IKK)ε can phosphorylate the C-terminal part of IRF3 and play important roles in IRF3 activation. In this study, we show that another kinase, c-Jun-NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), phosphorylates IRF3 on its N-terminal serine 173 residue, and TAK1 can stimu- late IRF3 phosphorylation via JNK. JNK specific inhibitor SP600125 inhibits the N-terminal phosphorylation with- out affecting the C-terminal phosphorylation. In addition, IRF3-mediated gene expressions on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or polyinosinic-cytidylic acid (polyI:C) treatment are severely impaired by SP600125, as well as for reporter gene assay of IRF3 activation. Knockdown of TAK1 further confirmed these observations. Interestingly, constitu- tive active IRF3(5D) can be inhibited by SP600125; JNK1 can synergize the action of IRF3(5D), but not the S173A- IRF3(5D) mutant. More importantly, polyI:C failed to induce the phosphorylation of mutant S173A and SP600125 dramatically abrogated IRF3 phosphorylation and dimerization that was stimulated by polyhC. Thus, this study demonstrates that the TAK1-JNK cascade is required for IRF3 function, in addition to TBK1/IKKε, uncovering a new mechanism for mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase to regulate the innate immunity.展开更多
