Knockdown of long non-coding RNA CCAT2 suppressed proliferation and migration of glioma cells.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA colon cancer-associated transcript 2 (CCAT2) is commonly investigated in a number of cancers. However, little is known of its expression and biological function in glioma biology. In the current study, we used quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) to determine the expression of CCAT2 in glioma tissues. We found that expression of CCAT2 was up-regulated in glioma tissues and significantly correlated with the advanced tumor stage (III/IV). Functional assays in vitro and in vivo demonstrated that knockdown of CCAT2 could inhibit proliferation, cell cycle progression and migration of glioma cells. Further analysis indicated the effect of CCAT2 knockdown on glioma cell phenotype through inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway activity. Thus, our study provides evidence that CCAT2 may function as a potential biomarker for glioma.

LINC00461, a long non-coding RNA, is important for the proliferation and migration of glioma cells.

Project description:An increasing number of reports have revealed that long non-coding RNAs are important players in tumorigenesis. Here we showed that long non-coding RNA LINC00461 is highly expressed in glioma tissues compared to non-neoplastic brain tissues. The knockdown of LINC00461 suppressed cyclinD1/A/E expression which led to G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and inhibited cell proliferation in glioma cells. LINC00461 suppression also inhibited glioma cell migration and invasion. The function of LINC00461 in glioma cells is partially mediated by MAPK/ERK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways as down-regulation of LINC00461 expression suppressed ERK1/2 and AKT activities. Moreover, LINC00461 knockdown decreased expression levels of microRNA miR-9 and flanking genes MEF2C and TMEM161B. Taken together, our results demonstrate that LINC00461 is important for glioma progression affecting cell proliferation, migration and invasion via MAPK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, and possibly other signaling pathways.

CCAT2: A novel oncogenic long non-coding RNA in human cancers.

Project description:Colon cancer-associated transcript 2 (CCAT2) was originally identified as an oncogenic long non-coding RNA in colorectal cancer. Since its discovery, the oncogenic role of CCAT2 has been increasingly demonstrated in human cancers. In this connection, CCAT2 upregulation is frequently reported and very often associated with tumour progression and poor clinical outcomes. Functionally, knockdown of CCAT2 could induce cancer cell apoptosis and suppress cell proliferation and invasiveness, suggesting that CCAT2 might be a therapeutic target. The present review summarized current literature concerning the expression and functional role of CCAT2 in human malignancies.

Long non-coding RNA DDX11-AS1 promotes the proliferation and migration of glioma cells by combining with HNRNPC.

Project description:Glioma is a malignant tumor of the central nervous system with complex pathogenesis, difficult operation, and a high postoperative recurrence rate. At present, there is still a lack of effective treatment. Long non-coding RNA DDX11 antisense RNA 1 (DDX11-AS1) has been shown to promote tumor development, such as hepatocellular carcinoma, esophageal cancer, etc. However, its molecular mechanism in glioma is poorly understood. In this study, we found that the expression of DDX11-AS1 was elevated in glioma tissues, and patients with high expression of DDX11-AS1 had poor prognosis. DDX11-AS1 was a potential prognostic marker. Functionally, DDX11-AS1 promoted glioma cell proliferation and migration. Mechanistically, DDX11-AS1 interacted with RNA-binding protein heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C (HNRNPC) to promote Wnt/β-catenin and AKT pathways and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process. In summary, our study manifests that the DDX11-AS1/HNRNPC axis may play a vital part in the occurrence and development of glioma, which provides new ideas and therapeutic targets for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of glioma.

Knockdown of long non‑coding RNA CCAT2 suppresses the progression of thyroid cancer by inhibiting the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway.

Project description:Thyroid cancer (TC) is one of the most common malignancies with a high mortality rate. Long non‑coding RNA CCAT2 (CCAT2) participates in the occurrence and development of certain human cancers; however, whether it is involved in TC remains unclear. Thus, the present study investigated the role of CCAT2 in TC and the underlying mechanism. CCAT2 expression in both TC tissues and cell lines was examined by reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. CCAT2 expression was silenced in TC cell lines by a specific small interfering (si)RNA against CCAT2 (si‑CCAT2). The effects of CCAT2 silencing on TC cell proliferation were detected by CCK‑8 and colony formation assays. Cell cycle and apoptosis of the treated TC cells were assessed by flow cytometry. Wound healing and Transwell assays were performed to detect the effects of si‑CCAT2 on the migration and invasion of TC cells. Apoptosis‑related proteins and Wnt/β‑catenin cascade‑associated agents were examined by western blotting. The interaction between CCAT2 and the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway in the transfected cells was detected by performing a dual‑luciferase reporter assay. CCAT2 expression was increased in TC tissue samples and cell lines compared with the controls. Tissue CCAT2 level was associated with T stage and tumor‑node‑metastasis stage of TC. Silencing CCAT2 inhibited TC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoted TC cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Furthermore, CCAT2 knockdown suppressed the activity of the Wnt/β‑catenin cascade in TC cells treated with lithium chloride. In summary, the present study demonstrated that CCAT2 knockdown suppresses TC progression via inactivating the Wnt/β‑catenin cascade, indicating that suppressing CCAT2 and the Wnt/β‑catenin signaling pathway may be a promising therapeutic strategy for treating TC.

Long non-coding RNA CCAT2 promotes prostate cancer cell proliferation and invasion by regulating the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway

Project description:Long non-coding RNA colon cancer associated transcript 2 (CCAT2) is dysregulated in a number of different types of human cancer, and affects cancer progression via the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway. However, the roles of CCAT2 and the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway in prostate cancer (PCa) are not completely understood. The present study aimed to investigate the potential mechanism of CCAT2 in PCa. In the present study, the reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) results indicated that CCAT2 expression was significantly upregulated in PCa tissues, and DU145 and PC3 cell lines compared with normal prostate tissues and the epithelial RWPE-1 cell line, respectively. Functional assays indicated that CCAT2 downregulation inhibited DU145 and PC3 cell proliferation, cell cycle, migration and invasion. In addition, the luciferase reporter assay, RT-qPCR and western blotting results indicated that CCAT2 regulated transcription factor 7 like 2 (TCF7L2) expression by binding to microRNA-217. Further western blotting and TOPFlash assays indicated that CCAT2-knockdown inhibited the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway in DU145 and PC3 cell lines by inhibiting the expression of TCF7L2. However, CCAT2-knockdown-mediated effects were reversed by the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway activator lithium chloride (LiCl). Further cell experiments suggested that LiCl treatment reversed CCAT2-knockdown-mediated inhibition of PCa cell proliferation, cell cycle, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, migration and invasion. Overall, the results indicated that CCAT2 regulated PCa via the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway; therefore, CCAT2 may exhibit key role during the progression of PCa and may serve as a therapeutic target for the disease.

Allele-Specific Reprogramming of Cancer Metabolism by the Long Non-coding RNA CCAT2.

Project description:Altered energy metabolism is a cancer hallmark as malignant cells tailor their metabolic pathways to meet their energy requirements. Glucose and glutamine are the major nutrients that fuel cellular metabolism, and the pathways utilizing these nutrients are often altered in cancer. Here, we show that the long ncRNA CCAT2, located at the 8q24 amplicon on cancer risk-associated rs6983267 SNP, regulates cancer metabolism in vitro and in vivo in an allele-specific manner by binding the Cleavage Factor I (CFIm) complex with distinct affinities for the two subunits (CFIm25 and CFIm68). The CCAT2 interaction with the CFIm complex fine-tunes the alternative splicing of Glutaminase (GLS) by selecting the poly(A) site in intron 14 of the precursor mRNA. These findings uncover a complex, allele-specific regulatory mechanism of cancer metabolism orchestrated by the two alleles of a long ncRNA.

Long non-coding RNA PSMA3-AS1 enhances cell proliferation, migration and invasion by regulating miR-302a-3p/RAB22A in glioma.

Project description:Glioma is the most prevalent solid tumor in the central nervous system (CNS). Recently, it has been indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) substantially adjust the development of a variety of human cancers. In the present study, it was found and verified via microarray analysis that lncRNA PSMA3-AS1 exhibited a high expression in glioma tissues and cell lines. Then CCK-8, 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining, plate clone assay, Transwell assay, Western blotting and nude mouse model were adopted to verify PSMA3-AS1's effects on glioma. Knockdown of PSMA3-AS1 inhibited the migration, proliferation and invasion of glioma cells in vivo and in vitro. Besides, PSMA3-AS1 bound to miR-302a-3p directly reduced the expression of miR-302a-3p, thus functioning as an endogenous sponge confirmed by luciferase reporter assay and bioinformatics analysis. PSMA3-AS1 knockdown remarkably enhanced the role of miR-302a-3p overexpression in cell behaviors in glioma. Moreover, these assays also confirmed that RAB22A was a target of miR-302a-3p. In this research, therefore, the PSMA3-AS1/miR-302a-3p/RAB22A pathway regulatory axis may be revealed in the pathogenesis of glioma, and PSMA3-AS1 can be used as an underlying target for the treatment and prognosis of glioma.

Long Non-Coding RNA AGAP2-AS1/miR-628-5p/PTN Axis Modulates Proliferation, Migration, Invasion, and Apoptosis of Glioma Cells.

Project description:Purpose:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be involved in a variety of cancers, including glioma. However, the exact role and underlying mechanism of lncRNA AGAP2 antisense RNA 1 (AGAP2-AS1) in glioma have not yet been fully elucidated. Methods:The expression levels of AGAP2-AS1, microRNA-628-5p (miR-628-5p) and pleiotrophin (PTN) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, transwell assay, respectively. Western blot assay was used to detect the protein level of PTN. The interaction between miR-628-5p and AGAP2-AS1 or PTN was predicted by bioinformatics software and confirmed by the dual-luciferase reporter and RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. Murine xenograft model was established to confirm the role of AGAP2-AS1 in glioma progression in vivo. Results:AGAP2-AS1 expression was upregulated in glioma tissues and cells. Knockdown of AGAP2-AS1 inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion, but facilitated apoptosis in glioma cells. Moreover, AGAP2-AS1 could directly bind to miR-628-5p and its overexpression reversed the anti-tumor effect of miR-628-5p restoration on the progression of glioma cells. In addition, miR-628-5p directly targeted PTN and its inhibition abolished the inhibitory effect of PTN knockdown on the progression of glioma cells. Furthermore, AGAP2-AS1 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR-628-5p to modulate PTN expression. Besides, AGAP2-AS1 depletion reduced tumor growth by upregulating miR-628-5p and downregulating PTN. Conclusion:AGAP2-AS1 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion but promoted cell apoptosis in glioma cells by regulating miR-628-5p/PTN axis, providing novel avenues for treatment of glioma.

Knockdown of long non-coding RNA SNHG3 inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion of human thyroid cancer via miR-339-5p/GPR62 axis.

Project description:Previous studies have implicated SNHG3, a long non-coding RNA, in various human cancers, suggesting its oncogenic role. However, its specific involvement in thyroid cancer and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the role of SNHG3 in human thyroid cancer and its interaction with the miR-339-5p/GPR62 axis. Understanding these mechanisms could provide insights into potential therapeutic targets for managing thyroid cancer. Results revealed significant upregulation of SNHG3 in human thyroid cancer tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of SNHG3 significantly suppressed proliferation, migration and invasion of CUTC5 and IHH-4 thyroid cancer cells. Knockdown of SNHG3 induces apoptosis in CUTC5 and IHH-4 cells and also inhibits the growth of xenografted tumors in vivo. Different in vitro assays revealed the interaction of SNHG3 with microRNA-339-5p (miR-339-5p) in thyroid cancer cells. Expression of miR-339-5p was significantly downregulated in thyroid cancer tissues and cell lines. However, the knockdown of SNHG3 caused significant upregulation of miR-339-5p. Interestingly, overexpression of miR-339-5p exerted tumor-suppressive effects in CUTC5 and IHH-4 cells via post-transcriptional suppression of GPR62. Knockdown of GPR62 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of CUTC5 and IHH-4 cells. Nonetheless, inhibition of miR-339-5p or overexpression of GPR62 avoids the growth inhibitory effects of SNHG3 knockdown in CUTC5 and IHH-4 cells. Results indicated that SNHG3 exerts oncogenic molecular function in thyroid cancer via miR-339-5p/GPR62 axis and may act as a therapeutic target for its management.
