A novel long non-coding RNA-PRLB acts as a tumor promoter through regulating miR-4766-5p/SIRT1 axis in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Accumulating evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in cancerous processes as either oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. Here, we demonstrated that lncRNA-PRLB (progression-associated lncRNA in breast cancer) was upregulated in human breast cancer tissues and breast cancer cell lines. Further evaluation verified that lncRNA-PRLB was positively correlated with the extent of metastasis, and its expression was correlated with shorter survival time of breast cancer patients. We identified microRNA miR-4766-5p as an inhibitory target of lncRNA-PRLB. Both lncRNA-PRLB overexpression and miR-4766-5p knockdown could remarkably enhance cell growth, metastasis, and chemoresistance. We also determined that sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) was an inhibitory target of miR-4766-5p, and that SIRT1 was inhibited by both lncRNA-PRLB knockdown and miR-4766-5p overexpression. Significantly, we found that the promotion of cell proliferation and metastasis, the acquisition of chemoresistance, and the increased expression of SIRT1 induced by lncRNA-PRLB overexpression could be partly abrogated by ectopic expression of miR-4766-5p. Taken together, our findings indicated that lncRNA could regulate the progression and chemoresistance of breast cancer via modulating the expression levels of miR-4766-5p and SIRT1, which may have a pivotal role in breast cancer treatment and prognosis prediction.

Project description:PurposeHepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer and the sixth largest common cancer worldwide. Although surgical resection, hepatic arterial chemoembolization, targeted drugs and immunotherapy are currently available, the mortality of advanced patients remains high. Therefore, new therapeutic targets are urgently needed. In recent years, many studies have found that The long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) has multiple functions in human tumors, including participating in epigenetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional and translational regulation, and is closely related to the progression of HCC. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of AC006329.1 in HCC progression and provide theoretical guidance for finding new targets.Patients and methodsAC006329.1 was screened out by transcriptome sequencing and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Then a series of functional tests in vivo and in vitro were conducted to investigate the effects of AC006329.1 on HCC progression and metastasis. Epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) of HCC was detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence staining. The targeted miRNA and downstream gene of AC006329.1 were predicted by databases and the pathway regulation axis eventually validated by dual luciferase reporter assays, qRT-PCR and WB.ResultsAC006329.1 was found high expressed in HCC tissues and cell lines by qRT-PCR. The prognosis of HCC patients with high expressed AC006329.1 was poor. In vitro and in vivo, overexpression of AC006329.1 can promote the progression, metastasis and EMT of HCC by acting as a sponge of miR-127-5p to increase the expression of SHC3. In addition, up-regulation of miR-127-5p or knockdown of SHC3 can both reverse the promoting effects of AC006329.1 on progression, metastasis and EMT of HCC. Finally, WB and qRT-PCR analysis was discovered that AC006329.1 can facilitate HCC progression, EMT and metastasis by competitively inhibiting miR-127-5p to activate SHC3/ERK signaling pathway.ConclusionThese above experimental results confirmed that AC006329.1 can facilitate HCC progression, EMT and metastasis by acting as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to inhibit miR-127-5p and activate SHC3/ERK signaling pathway.
