BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is aggressive liver cancer. Despite advanced imaging and other diagnostic measures, HCC in a significant portion of patients had reached the advanced stage at the first diagnosis. Unfortunately, there is no cure for advanced HCC. As a result, HCC is still a leading cause of cancer death, and there is a pressing need for new diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.
METHODS: We investigated sulfotransferase 1C2 (SUTL1C2), which we recently showed was overexpressed in human HCC cancerous tissues. Specifically, we analyzed the effects of SULT1C2 knockdown on the growth, survival, migration, and invasiveness of two HCC cell lines, i.e., HepG2 and Huh7 cells. We also studied the transcriptomes and metabolomes in the two HCC cell lines before and after SULT1C2 knockdown. Based on the transcriptome and metabolome data, we further investigated the SULT1C2 knockdown-mediated shared changes, i.e., glycolysis and fatty acid metabolism, in the two HCC cell lines. Finally, we performed rescue experiments to determine whether the inhibitory effects of SULT1C2 knockdown could be rescued via overexpression.
RESULTS: We showed that SULT1C2 overexpression promoted the growth, survival, migration, and invasiveness of HCC cells. In addition, SULT1C2 knockdown resulted in a wide range of gene expression and metabolome changes in HCC cells. Moreover, analysis of shared alterations showed that SULT1C2 knockdown significantly suppressed glycolysis and fatty acid metabolism, which could be rescued via SULT1C2 overexpression.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that SULT1C2 is a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for human HCC.
