AB209630, a long non-coding RNA decreased expression in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, influences proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and survival.

ABSTRACT: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with the development, progression, and prognosis of human cancers. However, the clinical significance and biological function of lncRNAs in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC) remain largely unknown. We characterized the novel lncRNA AB209630 in vivo and in vitro. First, using qRT-PCR, we evaluated whether AB209630 levels differ between HSCC tissues/cell lines and adjacent normal tissues/cell lines. We then assessed whether AB209630 expression levels stimulate or inhibit proliferation, invasion, apoptosis, and metastasis in vitro. Finally, we investigated whether AB209630 levels in tumor tissues were associated with survival outcomes. Our results demonstrated that AB209630 levels were markedly lower in HSCC tissues and cells than in normal tissues and cells, and increased expression of AB209630 level significantly inhibited growth, metastasis, and invasion and stimulated apoptosis in vitro. In addition, patients with decreased expression of AB209630 had a significantly poorer prognosis than those with high AB209630 expression. These data suggest that increased expression of AB209630 might either stimulate or inhibit biological activities involved in HSCC development, indicating a potential application of AB209630 in future treatment for this disease. This study suggest that AB209630 functions as a tumor suppressor in HSCC, and its decreased expression may help predict a poor prognostic outcome of HSCC. Our future work will focus on the mechanisms of whether and how AB209630 as a tumor suppressor gene is involved in HSCC development.

Project description:The present study aimed to investigate the potential role of long non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (lncRNA GAS5) in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to reveal its possible regulatory mechanism. The expression of lncRNA GAS5 in ESCC tissues and cell lines was analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. The overexpression vector pc-GAS5 and control vector pc-negative control (NC), containing no GAS5 sequence, were transfected into ESCC cells. The effects of lncRNA GAS5 overexpression on cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, cell migration and invasion were then analyzed. Besides, the expression levels of ATM-CHK2 pathway-associated proteins and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated proteins were measured. Expression of lncRNA GAS5 was downregulated in the ESCC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, and was also downregulated in ESCC Kyse450 cells compared with the human esophageal epithelial HET-1A cell line. Additionally, lncRNA GAS5 was successfully overexpressed in ESCC cells following transfection with pc-GAS5. Overexpression of lncRNA GAS5 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and suppressed cellular migration and invasion. When cells were transfected with pc-GAS5, the levels of phosphorylated (p)-ATM serine/threonine protein kinase, p-checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2), p-cell division cycle 25C, p-cyclin-dependent kinase 1, N-cadherin, vimentin and Snail were significantly increased, whereas that of E-cadherin were markedly decreased. The results of the present study indicate that overexpression of lncRNA GAS5 may inhibit cell proliferation, migration and invasion in ESCC. lncRNA GAS5 overexpression may induce cell cycle arrest at G2/M stage by activating the ATM-CHK2 pathway. The results of the current study further indicate that lncRNA GAS5 overexpression may suppress cell migration and invasion via EMT-associated proteins. lncRNA GAS5 could therefore serve as a potential target for ESCC therapy.

Project description:Aim:The aim of this study was to explore the expression of peroxiredoxin1 (PRDX1) in epithelial ovarian cancer, analyze the relationship between PRDX1 and clinicopathologic parameters of patients with ovarian cancer, including their prognosis, and describe changes and the mechanisms involved in malignant biologic behavior of ovarian cancer cells when PRDX1 expression is inhibited. Methods:The expression of PRDX1 was detected immunohistochemically in 15 samples of normal ovarian tissue, 21 benign, 11 borderline, and 101 malignant epithelial ovarian tumors. Changes in ovarian cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis before and after inhibiting PRDX1 expression were assessed by cell function assay. Additionally, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of PRDX1 was performed by the Cancer Genome Atlas database. A protein- protein interaction network was then constructed and a pathway function analysis of the genes in the network was conducted. Results:PRDX1 expression was mainly localized to the cytoplasm, as well as the nucleus of cells. The expression rate of PRDX1 in epithelial ovarian malignant tissues (96.04%) was significantly higher than that in borderline (72.72%) and benign (57.14%) epithelial ovarian tumors, and normal ovarian tissue (20%; all P<0.05). Cox multivariate regression analysis indicated that advanced clinical stage, low tissue differentiation, and high expression of PRDX1 were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (all P<0.05). Cell function assay verified that the decreased expression of PRDX1 inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. GSEA analysis indicated that PRDX1 was significantly related to the Wnt signaling pathway. Western blot analysis confirmed that PRDX1 could regulate the expression of ?-catenin in the Wnt pathway. Conclusion:Decreased expression of PRDX1 can attenuate cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of ovarian cancer cells. The expression of PRDX1 is related to the prognosis of patients with ovarian cancer and can therefore be used as a biomarker.
