MicroRNA-3196 is inhibited by H2AX phosphorylation and attenuates lung cancer cell apoptosis by downregulating PUMA.

ABSTRACT: Histone H2AX is a tumor suppressor protein that plays an important role in apoptosis. However, the mechanism underlying the association of H2AX with apoptosis in cancer cells remains elusive. Here, we showed that H2AX knockdown in lung cancer A549 cells affected the expression of 16 microRNAs (miRNAs), resulting in the downregulation of 1 and the upregulation of 15 miRNAs. MicroRNA-3196 (miR-3196) was identified as a target of H2AX and shown to inhibit apoptosis in lung cancer cells by targeting p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA). Phosphorylated H2AX (?H2AX) was shown to bind to the promoter of miR-3196 and regulate its expression. In addition, H2AX phosphorylation increased H3K27 trimethylation in the promoter region of miR-3196 and inhibited the binding of RNA polymerase II to the promoter of miR-3196, leading to the inhibition of miR-3196 transcription. Taken together, these results indicated that H2AX phosphorylation regulates apoptosis in lung cancer cells via the miR-3196/PUMA pathway.

Project description:The participation of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRs) in the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a key area of investigation. The current study aimed to investigate the action of lncRNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) in fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS) proliferation and synovitis in RA. A rat model of RA was established. LncRNA NEAT1 expression in the synovial tissues of patients with RA and FLSs from the RA rat model was determined using RT-qPCR. Next, dual luciferase reporter gene assay was applied to investigate the relationship between miR-129/204 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular regulated protein kinase (ERK). A putative binding relationship between miR-204 and lncRNA NEAT1 was evaluated by RIP assay, and miR-129 promoter methylation was determined using MSP. After the expression of lncRNA NEAT1, miR-129 or miR-204 was altered in FLSs, the extent of ERK1/2 phosphorylation was assessed. In addition, FLS synovitis and proliferation were determined by ELISA and EdU assay, respectively. In RA rats, lncRNA NEAT1 was silenced and miR-129/miR-204 was overexpressed to explore their roles in vivo. LncRNA NEAT1 was upregulated, while miR-129 and miR-204 were downregulated in RA synovial tissues and FLSs. MAPK1 was target gene of both miR-129 and miR-204. LncRNA NEAT1 bound to miR-204 and promoted miR-129 promoter methylation. Silencing lncRNA NEAT1 or overexpressing miR-129/miR-204 enhanced miR-129/miR-204 expression, but reduced the extent of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, proliferation of FLSs, and synovitis in RA. Collectively, silencing lncRNA NEAT1 promoted miR-129 and miR-204 to inhibit the MAPK/ERK signalling pathway, reducing FLS synovitis in RA.Abbreviations: ACR: American College of Rheumatology; ELISA: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; ERK: extracellular signal-regulated kinase; FLS: fibroblast-like synoviocyte; GADPH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; HRP: horseradish peroxidase; IFA: Incomplete Freund's Adjuvant; lncRNAs: long noncoding RNAs; MSP: Methylation-specific PCR; NC: negative control; NEAT1: nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1; OD: optical density; RA: rheumatoid arthritis; RIPA: Radio Immunoprecipitation Assay; RLU: relative light units; RT-qPCR: reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction; UTR: untranslated region.
