Summary: | lncRNA ANRIL is an oncogene, however the role of ANRIL in the regulation of colorectal cancer on human lymphatic endothelial cells (HLECs) is remain elusive. Pien Tze Huang (PZH, PTH) a Tradition Chinese Medicine (TCM) as an adjunctive medication could inhibit the cancer metastasis, however the mechanism still uncovering. We used network pharmacology, subcutaneous and orthotopic transplanted colorectal tumors models to determine the effect of PZH on tumor metastasis. Differential expressions of ANRIL in colorectal cancer cells, and stimulating the regulation of cancer cells on HLECs by culturing HLECs with cancer cells’ supernatants. Network pharmacology, transcriptomics, and rescue experiments were carried out to verify key targets of PZH. We found PZH interfered with 32.2% of disease genes and 76.7% of pathways, and inhibited the growth of colorectal tumors, liver metastasis, and the expression of ANRIL. The overexpression of ANRIL promoted the regulation of cancer cells on HLECs, leading to lymphangiogenesis, via upregulated VEGF-C secretion, and alleviated the effect of PZH on inhibiting the regulation of cancer cells on HLECs. Transcriptomic, network pharmacology and rescue experiments show that PI3K/AKT pathway is the most important pathway for PZH to affect tumor metastasis via ANRIL. In conclusion, PZH inhibits the regulation of colorectal cancer on HLECs to alleviate tumor lymphangiogenesis and metastasis by downregulating ANRIL dependent PI3K/AKT/VEGF-C pathway. |
