MiR-1266 Contributes to Pancreatic Cancer Progression and Chemoresistance by the STAT3 and NF-?B Signaling Pathways.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer is characterized by chemoresistance after several cycles of chemotherapy, which is a major issue responsible for treatment failure of pancreatic cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the specific mechanism underlying chemotherapeutic resistance to overcome this issue. Here we report that miR-1266 is dramatically elevated and correlates with poor survival and chemotherapy response in pancreatic cancer patients. Upregulation of miR-1266 enhanced the chemoresistance of pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine (GEM) in vitro and in vivo; conversely, inhibition of miR-1266 yielded the opposite effect. Importantly, silencing of miR-1266 restored the sensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to GEM in a dose-dependent manner in vivo. Furthermore, our results demonstrate that miR-1266 promotes resistance of pancreatic cancer cells to GEM by targeting multiple negative regulators of the STAT3 and NF-?B pathways, including SOCS3, PTPN11, ITCH, and TNIP1, leading to constitutive activation of STAT3 and NF-?B signaling. Thus, our findings clarify a novel mechanism by which miR-1266 induces chemotherapeutic resistance in pancreatic cancer, indicating that miR-1266 may be used as chemotherapeutic response indicator. Antagomir-1266 as a chemotherapeutic sensitizer, in combination with GEM, may serve as a rational regimen in the treatment of chemotherapy-resistant pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNA) play important roles in multiple types of cancers. We addressed the role of LINC02535 by regulating the miR-30a-5p /GalNAc Transferase 3 (GALNT3) axis to promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database screened differentially expressed lncRNAs. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis (qRT-PCR) confirmed that LINC02535 is highly expressed in LUAD tissues and cells. In vitro experiments showed that LINC02535 promotes the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells. A xenograft mouse model was used to show that LINC02535 promotes tumor growth in vivo. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and Dual-luciferase reporter assay results confirmed that LINC02535 targets miR-30a-5p. The Vicia villosa lectin (VVA) pull-down assay indicated that MUC1 is the glycosylation target of GALNT3, and western blot verified that NF-κB is the downstream signaling pathway of MUC1. We found that LINC02535 was increased in LUAD tissues and cells, and LINC02535 was correlated with the poor prognosis of LUAD patients. miR-30a-5p acts as a tumor suppressor in LUAD by targeting GALNT3. We also demonstrated that LINC02535 might function as the sponge of miR-30a-5p to up-regulate GALNT3, and consequently promote the proliferation and metastasis of LUAD. LINC02535 acts as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to interact with miR-30a-5p, thereby upregulating the expression of GALNT3, enhancing the function of MUC1, and activating the NF-κB signaling pathway, promoting the malignant progression of LUAD cells.Abbreviations: LncRNA:long non-coding RNA; LUAD: lung adenocarcinoma; TCGA: The Cancer Genome Atlas; GALNT3: GalNAc Transferase 3; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time PCR analysis; RIP: RNA immunoprecipitation; SPF: specific pathogen-free; VVA: Vicia villosa lectin; ceRNA: competing endogenous RNA; MiRNAs: microRNAs; FBS: fetal bovine serum; PBS: Phosphate buffered saline; CCK-8: Cell Counting Kit-8; NSCLC: non-small cell lung cancer; OC: ovarian cancer; HCC: hepatocellular carcinoma.
