Decreased Expression of MiRNA-204-5p Contributes to Glioma Progression and Promotes Glioma Cell Growth, Migration and Invasion.

ABSTRACT: Gliomas are the most common malignant primary brain tumors in adults and exhibit a spectrum of aberrantly aggressive phenotype. Although increasing evidence indicated that the deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) contributes to tumorigenesis and invasion, little is known about the roles of miR-204-5p in human gliomas. In the present study, the expression of miR-204-5p in clinical glioma tissues was measured by qRT-PCR. The effects of miR-204-5p on glioma cell growth and metastasis were examined by overexpressing or inhibiting miR-204-5p. We found that the expression level of miR-204-5p was significantly reduced in clinical glioma tissues compared with normal brain tissues. Moreover, we revealed that the introduction of miR-204-5p dramatically suppressed glioma cell growth, migration and invasion. Furthermore, mechanistic investigations revealed that RAB22A, a member of the RAS oncogene family, is a direct functional target of miR-204-5p in gliomas. In vivo, restoring miR-204-5p expression in glioma cells suppressed tumorigenesis and increased overall host survival. Our findings suggest that miR-204-5p is a cancer suppressor miRNA and overexpression of miR-204-5p is a novel glioma treatment strategy.

Project description:PurposeMicroRNAs dysregulation has been confirmed in multiple malignancies. This paper reported the molecular mechanism of miR-204-5p in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).MethodsmiR-204-5p expression in 30 ESCC tumor tissues and 10 normal tissues was downloaded from RNA-seq data. ESCC tissues/normal tissues of 97 ESCC patients were collected. TE-1 and KYSE510 cells were transfected by miR-204-5p mimic, inhibitor, siYWHAZ or their corresponding controls. The phenotype of cells was detected by CCK-8 assay, transwell experiment, and flow cytometry. Luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) were performed to verify the targeting relationship between miR-204-5p and YWHAZ. miR-204-5p and YWHAZ expression in tissues/cells was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Xenograft tumor experiment was performed.ResultsmiR-204-5p expression was declined in ESCC patients and cells, which was indicated the poor outcome of patients. Compared with siNC group, TE-1 cells in miR-204-5p inhibitor group had higher OD450 value, less cell percentage in G1 phase, and more cell percentage in S phase, lower apoptosis percentage, and higher migration and invasion cell numbers. Moreover, KYSE510 cells of miR-204-5p mimic group showed lower OD450 value, more cell percentage in G1 phase and less cell percentage in S phase, higher apoptosis percentage, and lower migration and invasion cell numbers than control. YWHAZ was directly inhibited by miR-204-5p. Relative to siNC group, TE-1 cells of miR-inhibitor group exhibited higher YWHAZ protein expression, higher OD450 value, less cell percentage in G1 phase and more cell percentage in S phase, lower apoptosis percentage, higher migration and invasion cell numbers, and higher p-PI3K/PI3K and p-AKT/AKT protein expression, while siYWHAZ rescued the effects of miR-inhibitor. miR-204-5p up-regulation inhibited ESCC growth in vivo.ConclusionmiR-204-5p inhibits ESCC progression by targeted inhibition of YWHAZ/PI3K/AKT.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNA RHOT1 (circRHOT1) plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis by competing with microRNAs. It is largely abundant in tumor cell-derived exosomes. Meanwhile, cancer-derived exosomes participate in diverse biological processes. However, the expression patterns and functions of exosomal circRHOT1 in breast cancer remain unknown. This study is aimed to investigate and elucidate the exosomal circRHOT1/miR-204-5p/PRMT5 axis in breast cancer.MethodsThe exosomes derived from serum samples of breast cancer patients and breast cancer cell lines were characterized using transmission electron microscopy and Western blot. MTT, colony formation, wound healing, and transwell assays were utilized to analyze cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. Flow cytometry was used for apoptosis analysis. The bioinformatics method was employed to screen differentially expressed novel circRNAs and predict the microRNA targets of circRHOT1. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assays were performed to verify their direct interaction. Finally, Xenograft experiments were used to investigate the effect of exosomal circRHOT1 on tumor growth in vivo.ResultsCircRHOT1 exhibited significantly high expression in exosomes derived from the serum of breast cancer patients and breast cancer cell lines, which suggested its potential diagnostic value. Breast cancer-derived exosomes promoted the cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of breast cancer cells while inhibiting apoptosis. However, exosomes with downregulated circRHOT1 inhibited the growth of co-cultured cells. Mechanistically, circRHOT1 acted as a sponge of miR-204-5p and promoted protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) expression. Moreover, miR-204-5p inhibitor and pcPRMT5 could reverse the tumor suppressive effects mediated by circRHOT1-knockdown. Furthermore, treatment with exosomes derived from breast cancer cells with circRHOT1 knockdown attenuated tumor growth in tumor-bearing nude mice, which was accompanied by a reduction in PRMT5 expression and an enhancement of miR-204-5p expression.ConclusionThe exosomal circRHOT1 may promote breast cancer progression by regulating the miR-204-5p/PRMT5 axis. The current study strengthens the role of circRHOT1, miR-204-5p, and PRMT5 in breast cancer development and provides a potential treatment strategy for breast cancer.
