MiR-27b inhibits gastric cancer metastasis by targeting NR2F2.

ABSTRACT: Increasing attention is focused on the down-regulation of miRNAs in cancer process. Nuclear receptor subfamily 2 (NR2F2, also known as COUP-TFII) is involved in the development of many types of cancers, but its role in gastric cancer remains elusive. In this experiment, oncomine and Kaplan-meier database revealed that NR2F2 was up-regulated in gastric cancer and that the high NR2F2 expression contributed to poor survival. MicroRNA-27b was targeted and down-regulated by NR2F2 in human gastric cancer tissues and cells. The ectopic expression of miR-27b inhibited gastric cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Assays suggested that the overexpression of miR-27b could promote MGC-803 cells' migration and invasion and retard their metastasis to the liver. In addition, down-regulation of miR-27b enhanced GES-1 cells' proliferation and metastasis in vitro. These findings reveal that miR-27b is a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer and a biomarker for improving patients' survival.

MiR-218 inhibits invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer by targeting the Robo1 receptor.

Project description:MicroRNAs play key roles in tumor metastasis. Here, we describe the regulation and function of miR-218 in gastric cancer (GC) metastasis. miR-218 expression is decreased along with the expression of one of its host genes, Slit3 in metastatic GC. However, Robo1, one of several Slit receptors, is negatively regulated by miR-218, thus establishing a negative feedback loop. Decreased miR-218 levels eliminate Robo1 repression, which activates the Slit-Robo1 pathway through the interaction between Robo1 and Slit2, thus triggering tumor metastasis. The restoration of miR-218 suppresses Robo1 expression and inhibits tumor cell invasion and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, our results describe a Slit-miR-218-Robo1 regulatory circuit whose disruption may contribute to GC metastasis. Targeting miR-218 may provide a strategy for blocking tumor metastasis.

miR-27b-3p suppresses cell proliferation through targeting receptor tyrosine kinase like orphan receptor 1 in gastric cancer.

Project description:The receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptors (ROR) family contains the atypical member ROR1, which plays an oncogenic role in several malignant tumors. However, the clinical potentials and underlying mechanisms of ROR1 in gastric cancer progression remain largely unknown. In this study, we validated the microRNA-mediated gene repression mechanism involved in the role of ROR1.Bioinformatic prediction, luciferase reporter assay, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blotting were used to reveal the regulatory relationship between miR-27b-3p and ROR1. The expression patterns of miR-27b-3p and ROR1 in human gastric cancer (GC) specimens and cell lines were determined by microRNA RT-PCR and western blotting. Cell proliferation, colony formation assay in soft agar in vitro and tumorigenicity in vivo were performed to observe the effects of downregulation and upregulation miR-27b-3p expression on GC cell phenotypes.miR-27b-3p suppressed ROR1 expression by binding to the 3'UTR of ROR1 mRNA in GC cells. miR-27b-3p was significantly downregulated and reversely correlated with ROR1 protein levels in clinical samples. Analysis of the clinicopathological significance showed that miR-27b-3p and ROR1 were closely correlated with GC characteristics. Ectopic miR-27b-3p expression suppressed cell proliferation, colony formation in soft agar, xenograft tumors of GC cells. By contrast, miR-27b-3p knockdown enhanced these malignant behaviors. Our studies further revealed that the c-Src/STAT3 signaling pathway was involved in miR-27b-3p-ROR1-mediated cell proliferation regulation.These results show that miR-27b-3p suppresses ROR1 expression through the binding site in the 3'UTR inhibiting the cell proliferation. These findings indicate that miR-27b-3p exerts tumor-suppressive effects in GC through the suppression of oncogene ROR1 expression and suggest a therapeutic application of miR-27b-3p in GC.

Circular RNA CDR1as Inhibits the Metastasis of Gastric Cancer through Targeting miR-876-5p/GNG7 Axis.

Project description:Circular RNA CDR1as has been demonstrated to participate in various cancer progressions as miRNA sponges. The exact underlying mechanisms of CDR1as on gastric cancer (GC) metastasis remain unknown. Here, we found that CDR1as knockdown facilitated GC cell migration and invasion while its overexpression inhibited the migration and invasion abilities of GC cells in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, epithelial-mesenchymal transition- (EMT-) associated proteins and MMP2 and MMP9 were downregulated by CDR1as. Bioinformatics analysis combined with dual-luciferase reporter gene assays, western blot, RT-qPCR analysis, and functional rescue experiments demonstrated that CDR1as served as a miR-876-5p sponge and upregulated the target gene GNG7 expression to suppress GC metastasis. In summary, our findings indicate that CDR1as suppresses GC metastasis through the CDR1as/miR-876-5p/GNG7 axis.

miR-183 inhibits invasion of gastric cancer by targeting Ezrin.

Project description:miR-183, a member of an evolutionarily conserved miRNA cluster (miR-96, miR-182, and miR-183), has been demonstrated to act as both a tumor suppressor and oncogene in various type of human cancer. However, the biological role of miR-183 in gastric cancer (GC) still remains unclear. In the present study, miR-183 expression was significantly decreased in gastric cancer tissues compared with its' adjacent normal tissues, and down-regulation of miR-183 was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis and pathological TNM stage. Furthermore, Erzin, which was reported to be up-regulated in gastric cancer, was identified as an efficient target of miR-183. Overexpression of miR-183 markedly suppressed cells invasion by downregulation of Ezrin expression. However, miR-183 expression didn't affect cells proliferation and cell cycle distribution of GC. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that miR-183 acts as a tumor suppressor in GC, partially at least via regulation of Ezrin. Therefore, miR-183 may be a potential target for the treatment of gastric cancer.

miR-874 inhibits gastric cancer cell proliferation by targeting SPAG9.

Project description:BackgroundmicroRNAs (miRNAs) play essential roles in the development and progression of gastric cancer (GC). Although aberrant miR-874 expression has been reported in various human cancers, its role in GC remains obscure.MethodsmiR-874 expression was assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) in 62 matched GC and adjacent normal tissues, as well as in GC cell lines and immortalized human gastric epithelial cells. CCK8 assay, colony formation assay, and flow cytometry were used to assess the role of miR-874 in GC cell proliferation and apoptosis in vitro. Additionally, to determine the effects of miR-874 on GC cell proliferation and apoptosis in vivo, BALB/c nude mice were injected with GC cells transfected with a miR-874 mimic. The role of miR-874 in SPAG9 expression was assessed by luciferase assay, Western blotting, and RT-qPCR.ResultsmiR-874 was downregulated in GC cell lines and tissues. miR-874 overexpression in GC cells led to inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. Moreover, SPAG9 was identified as a direct miR-874 target, the expression of which was suppressed by miR-874. SPAG9 overexpression markedly promoted GC cell proliferation.ConclusionsmiR-874 inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in GC cells. SPAG9 downregulation was crucial for the tumor-suppressive effects of miR-874. Hence, the miR-874/SPAG9 axis could serve as a novel therapeutic target in GC.

miR-148b inhibits glycolysis in gastric cancer through targeting SLC2A1.

Project description:Although the molecular biology of GC has been well characterized, early diagnostic biomarkers and effective therapeutic options in gastric cancer are still under investigation. Here, we found that miR-148b expression decreased in human gastric cancer tissues compared with matched adjacent nontumor tissues by q-PCR analysis and in situ hybridization. Further investigation revealed that overexpression of miR-148b limited glycolysis including glucose consumption, lactate production in gastric cancer cell lines BGC-823 and MKN45. Bioinformatics prediction uncovered that a dedicated transporters solute carrier family 2 member 1 (SLC2A1), also called GLUT1, was the direct target of miR-148b. The target effects were further confirmed by luciferase assay and western blot analysis. Besides, a reverse correlation was observed between relative SLC2A1 and miR-148b expression in human GC tissues compared with matched adjacent nontumor tissues. Subsequently, SLC2A1 suppression by SLC2A1 siRNA or specific inhibitor restricted the reduced effects of glycolysis mediated by miR-148b while SLC2A1 overexpression abrogated the effect of miR-148b on glycolysis. Our findings provided new evidence of miR-148b in GC development through restraining glycolysis, highlighting the role of miR-148b as a new target for GC treatment.

MiR-384 inhibits human colorectal cancer metastasis by targeting KRAS and CDC42.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Metastatic progression is a primary factor contributing to lethality of CRC patients. However, the molecular mechanisms forming early local invasion and distant metastatic colonies are still unclear and the present therapeutic approaches for CRC are unsatisfactory. Therefore, novel therapies targeting metastatic invasion that could prevent tumor spreading and recurrence are urgently needed. Our study showed that the decrease of miR-384 was found in 83.0% (83/100) CRC patients. And low-leveled expression of miR-384 was closely correlated with the invasive depth, lymph node and distant metastasis of CRC. Overexpression of miR-384 could inhibit the invasive and migrating abilities of CRC cells in vitro and the metastatic potential in vivo. Luciferase assays showed that miR-384 repressed the expression of Kirsten Ras (KRAS) and Cell division cycle 42 (CDC42) by directly targeting their 3'-untranslated regions. There is functional and mechanistic relationship between miRNA-384 and KRAS, CDC42 in the invasion and metastasis of CRC. And our findings suggest that miR-384could be a potent therapeutic target for CRC. Restoration of miR-384 expression might provide novel therapeutic approach to the reduction of CRC metastasis.

miR-6745-TIMP1 axis inhibits cell growth and metastasis in gastric cancer.

Project description:Tissue inhibitor matrix metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) has been reported to act as a tumor oncogene in colon cancer. However, little is known about the biological role of TIMP1 in gastric cancer. In this study, we found that the expression of TIMP1 in GC tissues was upregulated compared with the normal gastric tissues. TIMP1 was confirmed as a direct target of miR-6745 and silencing TIMP1 mimicked the effects of miR-6745 in GC cells. Further mechanism studies have shown that miR-6745 inhibits the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by targeting TIMP1, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation, migration and invasion. In addition, through the analysis of GC tissues, a negative correlation between miR-6745 and TIMP1 was found in 42 GC tissues. Our findings indicate that the miR-6745-TIMP1 axis regulates Wnt/βcatenin signaling and participates in GC tumorigenesis and provide a potential therapeutic target for preventing GC progression.

miR-27b-3p inhibits proliferation and potentially reverses multi-chemoresistance by targeting CBLB/GRB2 in breast cancer cells.

Project description:Drug resistance remains a major problem in the treatment of conventional chemotherapeutic agents in breast cancers. Owing to heterogeneity and complexity of chemoresistance mechanisms, most efforts that focus on a single pathway were unsuccessful, and exploring novel personalized therapeutics becomes urgent. By a system approach, we identified that microRNA-27b-3p (miR-27b), a miRNA deleted in breast cancer tissues and cell lines, has a master role in sensitizing breast cancer cells to a broad spectrum of anticancer drugs in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic analysis indicated that miR-27b enhanced responses to PTX by directly targeting CBLB and GRB2 to inactivate both PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Erk signaling pathways. Further, miR-27b was identified as a promising molecular biomarker in chemoresistance, clinicopathological features, and prognosis for breast cancer patients. In conclusion, we propose that combinational use of miR-27b and chemotherapeutic agents might be a promising therapeutic strategy to increase long-term drug responses in breast cancers.

Hsa_circ_0000994 Inhibits Pancreatic Cancer Progression by Clearing Immune-Related miR-27a and miR-27b.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a common cause of cancer death. Although more and more evidences suggest that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are associated with the development of cancer, the biological function of circRNAs in PC has not been fully explored. Based on previous studies, Hsa_circ_0000994 was screened out, and its clinical significance, functional role, and mechanism in PC are poorly studied. In various cell lines, 50 PC tissues, and an equal number of normal tissues, RT-qPCR was used to identify expression level of Hsa_circ_0000994. The impact of Hsa_circ_0000994 on metastasis, cell proliferation, and apoptosis was detected using functional loss and functional gain tests. An animal study was also conducted. Underlying mechanisms of Hsa_circ_0000994 were revealed by luciferase reporter gene detection. Hsa_circ_0000994 was lowly expressed in PC tissues as well as various PC cell lines, and this low expression was closely related to cancer. In terms of functional testing, Hsa_circ_0000994 suppressed core ability of PC cells, including proliferation, migration, and invasion ability. Xenotransplantation studies further confirmed the effect of Hsa_circ_0000994 in promoting cell growth. Mechanically, Hsa_circ_0000994 inhibited miR-27a and miR-27b. Hsa_circ_0000994 inhibited the cancer cells through the effect on miR-27a and miR-27b. In summary, a circRNA with tumor suppressor effects on PC has been elucidated.
