MiR-574-5p induces microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) expression by preventing CUGBP1 binding to its 3'UTR, leading to an enhanced alternative splicing and generation of an mPGES-1 3'UTR isoform, increased mPGES-1 protein expression, PGE<sub>2</sub> formation, and tumor growth <i>in vivo.</i> miR-574-5p-induced tumor growth in mice could be completely inhibited with the mPGES-1 inhibitor CIII.

By specifically targeting microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) activity with a small molecule inhibitor we could block CAF-derived PGE<sub>2</sub> production leading to reduced tumor growth, impaired angiogenesis, inhibited CAF migration and infiltration, reduced tumor cell proliferation and a favorable shift in the M1/M2 macrophage ratio.

In conclusion, we propose that the initial event leading to tumor stem-cell activation may be a leveraged intrinsic mechanism in which all players are either inherent constituents (EGF) or highly inducible proteins (mPGES-1, iNOS) of tumor cells.

Investigation of the tumor microenvironment showed high infiltration of tumor-promoting macrophages with high expression of the M2-polarization markers CD163 and CD206. mPGES-1-expressing cells in tumors from different subtypes of neuroblastoma showed differential expression of one or several cancer-associated fibroblast markers such as vimentin, fibroblast activation protein α, α smooth muscle actin, and PDGF receptor β.

In a mouse tumor xenograft model, mPGES-1-overexpressed cells formed palpable tumors at earlier time points and developed larger tumors when compared with the control (P<0.01); in contrast, mPGES-1 knockdown delayed tumor development and reduced tumor size (P<0.01).

In SCID mice with tumor xenografts, mPGES-1 overexpression accelerated tumor formation and increased tumor weight (P<.01), whereas mPGES-1 knockdown delayed tumor formation and reduced tumor weight (P<.01). mPGES-1 inhibited the expression of phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), leading to activation of the epidermal growth factor/phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathways in cholangiocarcinoma cells. mPGES-1-mediated inhibition of PTEN is regulated through blocking of early growth response-1 sumoylation and binding to the 5'-untranslated region of the PTEN gene.

Surprisingly, mPGES-1 mRNA and protein levels were upregulated upon induction of a wild type-APC carrying vector in HT29 colon cancer cells, and downregulated following siRNA silencing of APC in HCT-116 cells. mPGES-1 was overall enhanced in human colorectal tumor specimens versus corresponding non-tumor mucosa and, in accordance with data on HT29 and HCT116 cells, higher levels of mPGES-1 were observed among tumors carrying wild type versus mutant APC.
