Long non-coding RNA MIAT promotes growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer cells through regulation of miR-132/Derlin-1 pathway.

ABSTRACT: Objective:Recently, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) MIAT has been demonstrated as an oncogenic gene in several types of cancer. However, the role and mechanism of MIAT in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been investigated. Methods:Real-time PCR was used to measure MIAT expression in CRC tissues and cells. Small interfering RNA specific for MIAT (si-MIAT) was used to down-regulate MIAT expression in CRC cells. The interaction of MIAT and miR-132 was measured by RNA pull-down assay. The effect of si-MIAT on CRC cells apoptosis and metastasis were measured by flow cytometry assay, invasion and migration assay, respectively. Results:In present study, we found that MIAT was highly expressed in CRC tissues and cells. MIAT knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion and enhanced apoptosis of CRC cells. Further, we demonstrated that MIAT acted as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-132, antagonized its functions, and resulted in the de-repression of its target gene Derlin-1, which acted as an oncogene in promoting growth and metastasis of CRC cells. In LOVO and SW480 cells with si-MIAT, miR-132 inhibitor resulted in an increase of cell proliferation, migration and invasion and a decrease of cell apoptosis, which was partially abolished by transfection of Derlin-1 shRNA. Conclusions:Our data indicated that highly expressed MIAT was an oncogenic lncRNA that promoted the growth and metastasis of CRC through miR-132/Derlin-1 axis.

Long non-coding RNA MIAT promotes gastric cancer growth and metastasis through regulation of miR-141/DDX5 pathway.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The objective of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of long non-coding RNA MIAT in gastric cancer (GC). METHODS:Real-time PCR was used to determine MIAT level in 120 GC tissues, and in two gastric cancer cell lines. The clinicopathological characteristics of MIAT in GC patients were analyzed. Small interfering RNA specific for MIAT (si-MIAT) and lentivector for si-MIAT was performed to down-regulate MIAT expression in GC cells and in animal tumor model, respectively. The interaction of MIAT and miR-141 was measured by RNA pull-down assay and RNA immunoprecipitation. The biological function of si-MIAT on GC cell growth and metastasis were explored through flow cytometry assay, invasion and migration assay in vitro. RESULTS:MIAT was highly expressed in GC tissues and cell lines and correlated with differentiation degree, TNM stage, distant metastasis, and lymph node metastasis. MIAT knockdown inhibited GC growth and metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, MIAT acted as miR-141 sponge and regulated its target gene DDX5 expression. In BGC-823 and MGC-803 cells with si-MIAT, DDX5 overexpression resulted in an increase of cell proliferation, migration and invasion. CONCLUSIONS:Our data indicated that MIAT played an oncogenic role in GC growth and metastasis, and could serve as a novel molecular target for treating GC.

Long non-coding RNA MIAT promotes gastric cancer proliferation and metastasis via modulating the miR-331-3p/RAB5B pathway.

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) remains a threat to the health of the global population. The present study investigated the effects and mechanisms of the long non-coding RNA myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT) on the proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis of GC (HGC-27 and AGS) cells. The expression levels of MIAT, micoRNA (miR)-331-3p and RAB5B mRNA were analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis. Cell growth, apoptosis, migration and invasion were measured using 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine, flow cytometry, wound healing and Transwell assays, respectively. A luciferase assay was used to determine whether miR-331-3p targeted MIAT and RAB5B. The results indicated that MIAT levels were significantly upregulated in GC tissues and cells, correlated with RAB5B levels and inversely associated with miR-331-3p levels. MIAT overexpression promoted proliferation and metastasis, and inhibited the apoptosis of GC cells. MIAT knockdown had the opposite effect on GC cells. The rescue experiments revealed that the effects of MIAT knockdown on the biological behaviour of GC cells were attenuated by RAB5B overexpression. These data suggest that MIAT promotes GC progression via modulating miR-331-3p/RAB5B pathway.

Long Non-coding RNA MIR4435-2HG Promotes Colorectal Cancer Proliferation and Metastasis Through miR-206/YAP1 Axis.

Project description:Objective: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical to colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. In the current study, the objective was the exploration of the role played by lncRNA MIR4435-2HG in CRC proliferation and metastasis. Methods: lncRNA MIR4435-2HG expression and its association with CRC were analyzed using database and clinical specimens. The influences exerted by MIR4435-2HG on cell proliferating process, invading process, and migrating process of CRC were identified after MIR4435-2HG knockdown. The influences exerted by MIR4435-2HG on tumor growth and metastasis were assessed in vivo. The underlying mechanistic associations between MIR4435-2HG, microRNA miR-206, and the transcription factor Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) were assessed using bioinformatics and a luciferase reporter gene assay. Results: MIR4435-2HG was highly expressed in CRC tissue in contrast with that in regular tissues and displayed relations to poor prognosis. MIR4435-2HG knockdown could suppress CRC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Moreover, MIR4435-2HG knockdown inhibited CRC growth and liver metastasis in vitro. We found MIR4435-2HG knockdown reduced YAP1, CTGF, AREG, vimentin, Snail, Slug, and Twist expression but enhanced E-cadherin expression. Functionally, MIR4435-2HG acted as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to upregulate YAP1 by sponging miR-206. Conclusions: MIR4435-2HG promoted CRC growth and metastasis through miR-206/YAP1 axis and is likely to play prognostic marker roles and be therapeutically targeted in CRC.

Long Non-Coding RNA LINC01569 Promotes Proliferation and Metastasis in Colorectal Cancer by miR-381-3p/RAP2A Axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) display regulatory function flexibly in tumor onset and developments. Our study aimed to delve into the roles of lncRNA LINC01569 (LINC01569) in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression to study the potential mechanisms.MethodsThe genetic expression profiles of miR-381-3p and LINC01569 were measured by RT-PCR. The subcellular localization of LINC01569 in CRC cells was identified using subcellular fractionation location. Loss-of-function assays were performed to explore the potential effects of LINC01569 on CRC progression. Dual-luciferase reporter analysis was employed to verify the binding connections among LINC01569, miR-381-3p, and RAP2A.ResultsLINC01569 expression was distinctly increased in CRC. Curiously, if LINC01569 is removed, CRC cells will not migrate, proliferate, and invade remarkably. Molecular mechanism exploration uncovered that LINC01569 acted as a ceRNA competing with RAP2A to bind with miR-381-3p. Furthermore, rescue experiments corroborated the fact that miR-381-3p suppression reversed the inhibitory actions of LINC01569 knockdown on the expression of RAP2A and CRC progression.ConclusionOverall, our findings indicate that LINC01569 plays a key role in CRC development by means of aiming at the miR-381-3p/RAP2A axis and can be equivalent to an underlying medicinal target to save CRC patients.

Long non-coding RNA MIAT promotes papillary thyroid cancer progression through upregulating LASP1.

Project description:BackgroundAccumulating evidences indicate that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in initiation and development of thyroid cancer. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive.MethodsTo explore potential oncogenic and tumor suppressive lncRNAs in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), we performed RNA sequencing to discover differentially expression lncRNAs between PTC tissues and matched normal tissues. RT-qPCR was used to validate differentially expressed lncRNAs. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to predicted potential miRNA and gene which might be regulated by MIAT. Cell proliferation, invasion and cycle assay were conducted to study the function of MIAT and LASP1 in PTC.ResultsThrough analysis of RNA sequencing, we observed that lncRNA-MIAT was overexpressed in PTC tissues. The upregulation of MIAT was further confirmed in 40 pairs of PTC tissues and normal tissues we collected. In the function assays, results suggested that MIAT silencing led to inhibition of cell proliferation, invasion and disruption of cell cycle progression in PTC cells. Mechanistically, MIAT directly bound to miR-324-3p and upregulated LASP1 expression in PTC cells. In addition, expression of MIAT was positively correlated with LASP1 mRNA expression in samples collected from patients with PTC. More importantly, transfection of recombinant LASP1 attenuated MIAT silencing induced inhibition of cell proliferation, invasion and disruption of cell cycle progression in PTC cells.ConclusionsIn conclusion, the findings suggest that lncRNA-MIAT may promote PTC proliferation and invasion through physically binding miR-324-3p and upregulation of LASP1.

Long non-coding RNA-MIAT promotes neurovascular remodeling in the eye and brain.

Project description:Although nervous and vascular systems are functionally different, they usually share similar mechanisms for function maintenance. Neurovascular dysfunction has became the pathogenesis of several vascular and nervous disorders. Here we show that long non-coding RNA-MIAT is aberrantly expressed under neurovascular dysfunction condition. MIAT is shown as a regulator of vascular dysfunction, including retinal angiogenesis, corneal angiogenesis, and vascular permeability. MIAT is also shown as a regulator of retinal neurodegeneration under diabetic condition. Mechanistically, MIAT regulates neural and vascular cell function via MIAT/miR-150-5p/VEGF network. The eye is a valuable model to study central nervous system (CNS) disorders. We show that MIAT knockdown leads to cerebral microvascular degeneration, progressive neuronal loss and neurodegeneration, and behavioral deficits in a CNS neurovascular disorder, Alzheimer's disease. MIAT may represent a pharmacological target for treating neurovascular-related disorders.

Long non-coding RNA MIAT is involved in the regulation of pyroptosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy via targeting miR-214-3p.

Project description:Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the most common complications of diabetes without effective treatment options. Its pathogenesis is complex and remains unclear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) MIAT allele has been reported to be enriched in DCM patients and activate a pyroptosis program in hypoxia-induced H9c2 cells. Thus, whether MIAT played a role in DCM pyroptosis remains to be clarified. In the study, the expression of MIAT was found elevated in the serum of diabetic patients, as well as in high-glucose induced cardiomyocytes and diabetic mice. Further, the expression levels of CASP1 and pyroptosis correlation factors (IL-1 and IL-18) were downregulated after silencing MIAT. Through modeling and validation experiments, we then confirmed that the MIAT-miR-214-3p-CASP1 axis serves as an essential point in pyroptosis of DCM mice. These results suggested that silencing MIAT would be a potential treatment strategy for DCM.

Long non-coding RNA MIAT promotes breast cancer progression and functions as ceRNA to regulate DUSP7 expression by sponging miR-155-5p.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) have been reported as key regulators in the progression and metastasis of breast cancer. In this study, we found that the lncRNA myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT) expression was upregulated in breast cancer in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data sets. We validated that MIAT was higher in breast cancer cell lines and advanced breast tumors than in normal controls. And MIAT overexpression associated with TNM stage and lymphnode metastasis. Knockdown MIAT inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Also MIAT downregulation suppressed epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and decreased migration and invasion in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines. More importantly, knockdown MIAT inhibited tumor growth in vivo. Our results suggested that MIAT acted as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to regulate the expression of dual specificity phosphatase 7 (DUSP7) by taking up miR-155-5p in breast cancer. There were positive correlation between MIAT and DUSP7 expression in breast cancer patients. We conclude that MIAT promotes breast cancer progression and functions as ceRNA to regulate DUSP7 expression by sponging miR-155-5p in breast cancer.

Long non-coding RNA LINC00152 promotes cell proliferation, metastasis, and confers 5-FU resistance in colorectal cancer by inhibiting miR-139-5p.

Project description:Long intergenic non-coding RNA 152 (LINC00152) is a recently identified tumor-promoting long non-coding RNA. However, the biological functions of LINC00152 in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain unclear and require further research. The aim of the present study is to explore the roles of LINC00152 in cellular function and its possible molecular mechanism. In this study, we discovered that LINC00152 was overexpressed in CRC tissues and negatively related to the survival time of CRC patients. Functional analyses revealed that LINC00152 could promote cell proliferation. Furthermore, LINC00152 could increase the resistance of CRC cells to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) by suppressing apoptosis. We also discovered that LINC00152 could enhance cell migration and invasion. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that LINC00152 could regulate the expression of NOTCH1 through sponging miR-139-5p and inhibiting its activity from promoting CRC progression and development. Altogether, our work points out a novel LINC00152/miR-139-5p/NOTCH1 regulatory axis in CRC progression and development.

Long non-coding RNA CCAT1 promotes colorectal cancer progression by regulating miR-181a-5p expression.

Project description:The vital roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in growing number of studies in tumor development. LncRNA CCAT1 has been recognized as associated with tumor development, yet its relation with colorectal cancer (CRC) remains elusive. Our study aimed at elucidating the function and mechanisms of long non-coding RNA CCAT1 in CRC. From a lncRNA profile dataset of 38 pairs of matched tumor-control colon tissues from colorectal patients housed in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we detected 10 upregulated and 10 down-regulated lncRNAs in CRC. Fifty cases of CRC patients were enrolled to analyze the correlation between the expression of CCAT1 and clinical pathology. The inverse correlation of expression and target relationship between CCAT1 and miR-181a-5p were verified using qRT-PCR and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Cell viability, colony formation ability, aggression and apoptosis were determined by MTT assay, colony formation assay, Transwell and wound healing assays and flow cytometry analysis. Furthermore, Xenograft model was used to show that knockdown of CCAT1 inhibits tumor growth in vivo. The expression of lncRNA CCAT1 was significantly upregulated in CRC tissues. The CCAT1 expression was positively associated with cancer stage (American Joint Committee on Cancer stage, P<0.05). CCAT1 promoted cell proliferation, growth and mobility by targeting miR-181a-5p and the silence of CCAT1 increased the cell apoptosis. Same effect was observed in an in vivo xenograft model, which the tumor size and pro-tumor proteins were significantly diminished by knocking down of CCAT1.
