Abstrakt: Perineural invasion (PNI) is an essential form of tumor metastasis in multiple malignant cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, and head and neck cancer. Growing evidence has revealed that pancreatic cancer recurrence and neuropathic pain positively correlate with PNI. Therefore, targeting PNI is a proper strategy for pancreatic cancer treatment. Exosomal lncRNA derived from pancreatic cancer cells is an essential component of the tumor microenvironment. However, whether exosomal lncXIST derived from pancreatic cancer cells can promote PNI and its exact mechanism remains to be elucidated. We show that lncXIST mediates nerve-tumor crosstalk via exosomal delivery. Our data reveal that exosomal lncXIST derived from pancreatic cancer cells is delivered to neural cells and promotes their release of glial-cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), essential in facilitating the PNI of pancreatic cancer. Mechanistically, microRNA-211-5p negatively regulates GDNF, and lncXIST serves as a miR-211-5p sponge. The function of exosomes in the dynamic interplay between nerves and cancer is confirmed in both in vivo and in vitro PNI models. Therefore, targeting pancreatic cancer cell-derived exosomal lncXIST may provide clues for a promising approach for developing a new strategy to combat PNI of pancreatic cancer.
