Circular RNA 0000096 affects cell growth and migration in gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs broadly expressed in cells of various species. Their role in cancers, especially in gastric cancer, is poorly understood.Circular RNA 0000096 (hsa_circ_0000096) levels in 101 paired gastric cancer tissues and adjacent non-tumorous tissues from patients with gastric cancer were detected by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. A receiver operating characteristic curve was generated to evaluate the diagnostic value of hsa_circ_0000096. RNA interference was used to manipulate the expression of hsa_circ_0000096. Its biological effects were evaluated by flow cytometry, real-time cell analysis, a wound scratch assay, western blot analysis and xenograft models.Hsa_circ_0000096 was found to be significantly downregulated in gastric cancer tissues and gastric cancer cell lines compared with paired adjacent non-tumorous tissues and normal gastric epithelial cells (P<0.001). Moreover, knockdown of hsa_circ_0000096 significantly inhibited cell proliferation and migration in vitro and in vivo. The results of both immunohistochemical and western blot analyses showed that the protein levels of cyclin D1, cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6), matrix metalloproteinase-2 and MMP-9 were significantly reduced in vitro and in vivo. A gastric cancer xenograft nude mouse model indicated that Ki67 and VEGF were reduced in a dose-dependent manner following knockdown of hsa_circ_0000096. However, the expression of E-cadherin increased.Hsa_circ_0000096 may be used as a potential novel biomarker for gastric cancer. It affects gastric cancer cell growth and migration by regulating cyclin D1, CDK6, MMP-2 and MMP-9.

Project description:BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. It is essential to identify new CRC-associated therapeutic targets and diagnostic biomarkers. Previous studies have demonstrated that a series of circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a crucial role in CRC pathogenesis. This study assessed the potential of hsa_circ_0064559 in tumor cell growth and progression of CRC.MethodsSix pairs of matched CRC and normal colorectal tissue samples were sequenced using the Affymetrix Clariom D array. Using RNA interference, the expression of thirteen circRNAs was knocked down in CRC cells. The proliferation of CRC cell lines (RKO and SW620 cells) was detected using 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Apoptosis and cell cycle were determined by flow-cytometric analysis. An in vivo study uses nude mice to establish a CRC mouse model. The differentially expressed genes were analyzed using Affymetrix primeview human GeneChip array and verified by polymerase chain reaction.ResultsAffymetrix Clariom D array analysis revealed that thirteen circRNAs were upregulated in CRC. The proliferation of CRC cell lines was decreased, while the proportion of apoptotic and G1 phase cells was higher after hsa_circ_0064559 knockdown. In vivo xenograft nude mice model revealed that the volume and weight of the tumor were reduced by hsa_circ_0064559 knockdown. In Affymetrix primeview human GeneChip array, we found six upregulated genes (STAT1, ATF2, TNFRSF10B, TGFBR2, BAX, and SQSTM1) and two downregulated genes (SLC4A7 and CD274) related to apoptosis and proliferation of colorectal cancer cells after hsa_circ_0064559 knockdown.ConclusionsThe hsa_circ_0064559 knockdown could inhibit the proliferation, promote apoptosis in CRC cell lines in vitro, and inhibit the development of CRC tumors in vivo. The mechanism may be related to activating a wide range of signaling pathways. The hsa_circ_0064559 may be a potential biomarker for early diagnosis or prognosis of CRC and a novel drug target for CRC therapy.
