Abstract
This study intends to investigate the possible molecular mechanism of immune response and tumorigenesis in ovarian cancer cells, mediated by sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)-containing extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from cancer-associated adipocytes (CAAs) (CAA-EVs). Differentially expressed genes in EVs from CAAs were screened by RNA transcriptome sequencing, and the downstream pathway was predicted in silico. The binding between SIRT1 and CD24 was investigated by luciferase activity and ChIP-PCR assays. EVs were extracted from human ovarian cancer tissue-isolated CAAs, and the internalization of CCA-EVs by ovarian cancer cells was characterized. The ovarian cancer cell line was injected into mice to establish an animal model. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the proportions of M1 and M2 macrophages, CD8+ T, T-reg, and CD4+ T cells. TUNEL staining was used to detect cell apoptosis in the mouse tumor tissues. ELISA detection was performed on immune-related factors in the serum of mice. CAA-EVs could deliver SIRT1 to ovarian cancer cells, thereby affecting the immune response of ovarian cancer cells in vitro and promoting tumorigenesis in vivo. SIRT1 could transcriptionally activate the expression of CD24, and CD24 could up-regulate Siglec-10 expression. CAA-EVs-SIRT1 activated the CD24/Siglec-10 axis and promoted CD8+ T cell apoptosis, thereby promoting tumorigenesis in mice. CAA-EVs-mediated transfer of SIRT1 regulates the CD24/Siglec-10 axis to curb immune response and promote tumorigenesis of ovarian cancer cells.
