MiRNA-186-5p inhibits migration, invasion and proliferation of breast cancer cells by targeting SBEM.

ABSTRACT: The paper aimed to investigate the effect of miR186-5p on invasion and migration of breast cancer cells and its molecular mechanism. MicroRNA-186-5p was found to be low expressed in breast cancer and highly expressed in SBEM by bioinformatics analysis. After transfecting MDA-MB-231 cells with miR-186-5p inhibitor NC, miR-186-5p inhibitor, miR-186-5p mimic NC and miR-186-5p mimic, respectively. The migration and invasive ability of breast cancer cells were detected by cell scratch test and Transwell test. Moreover, after adding 740 Y-P to the miR-186-5p mimic NC group and miR-186-5p mimic group cells, SBEM and PI3K pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blotting and proliferation of the cancer cells was evaluated by monoclonal cell experiment. Meanwhile, exogenous miR-186-5p mimic in MDA-MB-231 cells significantly inhibited the expression of SBEM, p-PI3K, p-AKT and their downstream pathways, MMP1, MMP3, MMP9, CyclinD1, PCNA and CyclinB1 proteins and reduced proliferation of breast cancer cells. Furthermore, the expression of SBEM protein in the miR-186-5p mimic + 740Y-P group was significantly lower than the miR-186-5p mimic NC + 740Y-P group after adding 740 Y-P. However, there were no significant changes in the protein's levels associated with PI3K pathway and the cancer cells proliferation. These results suggest that low expression of miR-186-5p in breast cancer results in an abnormally high expression of SBEM, activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, promoting migration and invasion of human breast cancer cells.

Project description:BackgroundStudies of aberrantly expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) can provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of osteosarcoma (OS). However, the role of circ_0001174 in OS progression remains unknown. This study is aimed to identify differentially expressed circRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in patients with OS and to investigate potential regulatory ways of circ_0001174.MethodsHigh-throughput sequencing was performed to screen aberrantly expressed circRNAs and mRNAs between tumor and paracancerous tissues from patients with OS. Several bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the functions and pathways of the differentially expressed genes between the tissues. Cell counting kit-8, cell migration and invasion assays were performed to evaluate the functions of the critical circRNAs. RNA interference experiments, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blotting were used to explore the relationship between miR-186-5p and circ_0001174 or metastasis-associated in colon cancer 1 (MACC1).ResultsCompared with the paracancerous tissues, 109 circRNAs and 1264 mRNAs were differentially expressed in the OS tissues, including 88 circRNAs and 707 mRNAs that were upregulated and 21 circRNAs and 557 mRNAs that were downregulated. The expression of four upregulated and four downregulated circRNAs was validated using RT-qPCR; the results were consistent with the sequencing data, and circ_0001174 was found to be significantly upregulated in 16 pairs of OS tissues and OS cell lines (fold change > 2.0, P value < 0.05). Knockdown of circ_0001174 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OS cells. Additionally, circ_0001174 directly and negatively modulated the expression of miR-186-5p and positively regulated the expression of MACC1.ConclusionsAbnormally high expression of circ_0001174 may promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OS cells through up-regulating MACC1 by sponging miR-186-5p. These results provide insight into therapeutic targets for preventing and treating OS.

Project description:BackgroundmicroRNA-627-5p (miR-627-5p) dysregulation has been observed in several cancer types, such as hepatocellular carcinoma, oral squamous cell carcinoma, glioblastoma multiforme, and gastric cancer. The biological function of miR-627-5p in colorectal cancer (CRC) growth and metastasis is yet unclear.AimTo investigate the effects of miR-627-5p on the malignant biological properties of colorectal malignant tumour cells by targeting Wnt2.MethodsThe levels of miR-627-5p in colorectal tumour tissues were assessed in Gene Expression Omnibus datasets. In order to identify Wnt2 transcript expression in CRC tissues, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis was used. Luciferase reporter tests were used to explore whether miR-627-5p might potentially target Wnt2. Wnt2 transcript and protein levels were detected in CRC cells with high miR-627-5p expression. To learn more about how miR-627-5p affects CRC development, migration, apoptosis, and invasion, functional experiments were conducted. Cotransfection with the overexpression vector of Wnt2 and miR-627-5p mimics was utilized to verify whether overexpression of Wnt2 could cancel the impact of miR-627-5p in CRC. Western blot and qRT-PCR were conducted to investigate the effects of miR-627-5p on the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway.ResultsmiR-627-5p was notably decreased in colorectal tumour tissues, while the gene level of Wnt2 was notably upregulated. A dual luciferase reporter assay revealed that miR-627-5p specifically targets the 3'-untranslated regions of Wnt2 and miR-627-5p upregulation markedly reduced the protein and gene expression of Wnt2 in CRC cells. In vitro gain-of-function assays displayed that miR-627-5p overexpression decreased CRC cells' capabilities to invade, move, and remain viable while increasing apoptosis. Wnt2 overexpression could reverse the suppressive functions of miR-627-5p. Moreover, upregulation of miR-627-5p suppressed the transcript and protein levels of the downstream target factors in the canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling, such as c-myc, CD44, β-catenin, and cyclinD1.ConclusionmiR-627-5p acts as a critical inhibitory factor in CRC, possibly by directly targeting Wnt2 and negatively modulating the Wnt/β-catenin signalling, revealing that miR-627-5p could be a possible treatment target for CRC.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are highly conserved single-stranded small non-coding RNAs, which are involved in the physiological and pathological processes of breast cancer, and affect the prognosis of patients with breast cancer. The present study used the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO)2R tool to detect miR-100 expression in breast cancer tissues obtained from GEO breast cancer-related datasets. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that miR-100 expression was downregulated in different stages, grades and lymph node metastasis stages of breast cancer, and patients with high miR-100 expression had a more favorable prognosis. Based on these analyses, Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing and Transwell assays were performed, and the results demonstrated that overexpression of miR-100 inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. To verify the tumor-suppressive effect of miR-100 in breast cancer, the LinkedOmics and PITA databases were used to assess the association between miR-100 and forkhead box A1 (FOXA1). The results demonstrated that miR-100 had binding sites within the FOXA1 gene, and FOXA1 expression was negatively associated with miR-100 expression in breast cancer tissues. Similarly, a negative association was observed between miR-100 and FOXA1 expression, using the StarBase V3.0 database. The association between miR-100 and FOXA1 was further verified via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analyses, and the dual-luciferase reporter assay. The results demonstrated that miR-100 targeted the 3'-untranslated region of FOXA1 in breast cancer cells. Furthermore, rescue experiments were performed to confirm whether miR-100 exerts its antitumor effects by regulating FOXA1. The results demonstrated that overexpression of FOXA1 promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells; thus, the antitumor effects of miR-100 in breast cancer were reversed following overexpression of FOXA1. Taken together, the results of the present study suggest that miR-100 inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells by targeting FOXA1 expression. These results may provide a novel insight and an experimental basis for identifying effective therapeutic targets of high specificity for breast cancer.
