Zona occludens-2 inhibits cyclin D1 expression and cell proliferation and exhibits changes in localization along the cell cycle.

ABSTRACT: Here, we have studied the effect of the tight junction protein zona occludens (ZO)-2 on cyclin D1 (CD1) protein expression. CD1 is essential for cell progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle. We have found that in cultures of synchronized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, ZO-2 inhibits cell proliferation at G0/G1 and decreases CD1 protein level. These effects occur in response to a diminished CD1 translation and an augmented CD1 degradation at the proteosome triggered by ZO-2. ZO-2 overexpression decreases the amount of Glycogen synthase kinase-3beta phosphorylated at Ser9 and represses beta-catenin target gene expression. We have also explored the expression of ZO-2 through the cell cycle and demonstrate that ZO-2 enters the nucleus at the late G1 phase and leaves the nucleus when the cell is in mitosis. These results thus explain why in confluent quiescent epithelia ZO-2 is absent from the nucleus and localizes at the cellular borders, whereas in sparse proliferating cultures ZO-2 is conspicuously present at the nucleus.

Project description:Accumulating evidence has indicated that aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is an important oncogenic factor. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of LINC01296, an lncRNA that exerts a tumor?promoting function in many cancers, in the regulation of proliferation, metastasis and the cell cycle of osteosarcoma. The expression of LINC01296 in osteosarcoma tissues and adjacent healthy tissues of 30 patients was analyzed by quantitative real?time PCR (qRT?PCR). The relationship between LINC01296 expression and the survival of patients with osteosarcoma was also explored. The expression levels of LINC01296 in osteosarcoma cells and normal cells were compared. LINC01296 knockdown and overexpression were performed in MG63 and HOS8603 osteosarcoma cells by transfecting LINC01296 shRNA and an expression plasmid respectively, followed by investigation of the changes on cell proliferation, migration, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Western blotting was used to analyze the changes of cell cycle regulators. Cyclin D1 knockdown and overexpression were carried out to verify the interaction between LINC01296 and cyclin D1. LINC01296 overexpression was demonstrated as a biomarker of osteosarcoma, which was closely correlated with the poor survival of patients with osteosarcoma. A high expression of LINC01296 was observed in osteosarcoma cells, which was closely associated with enhanced proliferation, invasion, and migration of osteosarcoma cells. Cyclin D1 expression was positively correlated with the expression of LINC01296 in osteosarcoma cells. Cyclin D1 knockdown or overexpression played a deterministic role in mediating the effect of LINC01296 on osteosarcoma cells. LINC01296 is an oncogenic lncRNA in osteosarcoma. The proliferation, invasion and migration of osteosarcoma cells could be effectively retarded by inhibition of LINC01296. The cancer?promoting effect of LINC01296 on osteosarcoma was determined by cyclin D1.
