Gga-miR-219b targeting BCL11B suppresses proliferation, migration and invasion of Marek's disease tumor cell MSB1.

ABSTRACT: Marek's disease (MD), caused by Marek's disease virus (MDV), is a lymphotropic neoplastic disease. Previous miRNAome analysis showed gga-miR-219b was significantly downregulated in MDV-induced lymphoma, and one of its potential target genes, B-cell chronic lymphocytic /lymphoma 11B (BCL11B) was predicted. In this study, we further investigated the function of gga-miR-219b, and the gain/loss of function assay showed gga-miR-219b inhibited cell migration and reduced cell proliferation by promoting apoptosis not by cell cycle arrest. Gga-miR-219b also suppressed expression of two cell invasion-related genes MMP2 and MMP9. The results indicated suppressive effect of gga-miR-219b on MD tumorigenesis. The gene BCL11B was verified as a direct target gene of gga-miR-219b. RNA interference was performed to block BCL11B. As expected, the effects triggered by BCL11B downregulation were in accordance with that triggered by gga-miR-219b overexpression, suggesting that BCL11B was a stimulative regulator of MD transformation. Moreover, both gga-miR-219b and BCL11B influenced the expression of Meq gene, the most important oncogene in MDV. Additionally, gene expression level of anti-apoptotic genes BCL2 and BCL2L1 was downregulated and pro-apoptotic gene TNFSF10 was upregulated in MSB1 cells with gga-miR-219b overexpression or BCL11B knockdown, which suggested gga-miR-219b promoted cell apoptosis via regulating gene expression in the apoptosis pathways.

Project description:The authors' previous study revealed that the serum levels of microRNA (miR)-663b are significantly increased in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), and are associated with NPC progression and poor prognosis. However, the molecular mechanism of underlying NPC growth and metastasis remains unclear. In the present study, quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analyses were performed to examine changes to mRNA and protein expression, respectively. MTT, wound healing and Transwell assays were used to examine cell proliferation, migration and invasion, respectively. Luciferase reporter gene assays were performed to identify target genes of miR-663b. It was demonstrated that miR-663b was significantly upregulated in NPC tissue compared with non-tumor nasopharyngeal epithelial tissue samples. Furthermore, miR-663b expression gradually increased with advancing stages of NPC, with the highest expression being observed in the latest stage IV. The increased expression of miR-663b was associated with advanced clinical stage and lymph node metastasis. In addition, miR-663b expression was increased in NPC cell lines compared with normal nasopharyngeal epithelial NP69 cells. Knockdown of miR-663b resulted in a significant reduction in the proliferation, migration and invasion of NPC CNE1 cells. Tumor suppressor candidate 2 (TUSC2) was identified as a novel target gene of miR-663b. It was further demonstrated that TUSC2 was significantly downregulated in NPC tissue samples and cell lines. miR-663b negatively regulated the expression of TUSC2 at the post-transcriptional level in CNE1 cells. Additionally, inhibition of TUSC2 expression attenuated the suppressive effects of miR-663b downregulation on the proliferation, migration and invasion of CNE1 cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that miR-663b, which is upregulated in NPC, promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion of NPC cells, partially through the inhibition of TUSC2 expression. Therefore, it is suggested that miR-663b is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of patients with NPC.
