Long non-coding RNA RP11-552M11.4 promotes cells proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting BRCA2 in ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) RP11-552M11.4 on cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion as well as its targeting genes in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) cells. LncRNA RP11-552M11.4 expression was detected in 67 tumor tissues and paired adjacent tissues obtained from EOC patients. lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 mimic/inhibitor plasmids were transferred into ovarian cancer cells (SKOV3, A-2780) and normal ovarian epithelial cells (IOSE80 cells). In addition, rescue experiment was carried out by transferring BRCA2 inhibitor&lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 inhibitor plasmids into SKOV3 and A-2780 cells. qPCR, western blot, CKK-8, Annexin V/propidium iodide (AV/PI), wound-healing and Matrigel invasion assays were carried out to detect RNA expression, protein expression, cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion, respectively. LncRNA RP11-552M11.4 expression was elevated in tumor tissues compared with paired adjacent tissues and correlated with higher pathological grade, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage and worse overall survival in EOC patients. LncRNA RP11-552M11.4 promoted SKOV3 cell proliferation, migration and invasion whereas it inhibited apoptosis. Rescue experiment and luciferase reporter assay showed that lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 regulated SKOV3 cells functions through binding BRCA2. Further experiments in A-2780 cells also validated that lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 induced A-2780 cell proliferation while repressing apoptosis by targeting BRCA2. In addition, upregulation of lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 increased IOSE80 cell proliferation, migration and invasion while decreasing apoptosis. In conclusion, lncRNA RP11-552M11.4 correlates with worse prognosis, and promotes cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and inhibits cell apoptosis by down-regulating BRCA2 in EOC.

Project description:The present study aimed to investigate the potential role of long non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (lncRNA GAS5) in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to reveal its possible regulatory mechanism. The expression of lncRNA GAS5 in ESCC tissues and cell lines was analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. The overexpression vector pc-GAS5 and control vector pc-negative control (NC), containing no GAS5 sequence, were transfected into ESCC cells. The effects of lncRNA GAS5 overexpression on cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, cell migration and invasion were then analyzed. Besides, the expression levels of ATM-CHK2 pathway-associated proteins and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated proteins were measured. Expression of lncRNA GAS5 was downregulated in the ESCC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, and was also downregulated in ESCC Kyse450 cells compared with the human esophageal epithelial HET-1A cell line. Additionally, lncRNA GAS5 was successfully overexpressed in ESCC cells following transfection with pc-GAS5. Overexpression of lncRNA GAS5 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and suppressed cellular migration and invasion. When cells were transfected with pc-GAS5, the levels of phosphorylated (p)-ATM serine/threonine protein kinase, p-checkpoint kinase 2 (CHK2), p-cell division cycle 25C, p-cyclin-dependent kinase 1, N-cadherin, vimentin and Snail were significantly increased, whereas that of E-cadherin were markedly decreased. The results of the present study indicate that overexpression of lncRNA GAS5 may inhibit cell proliferation, migration and invasion in ESCC. lncRNA GAS5 overexpression may induce cell cycle arrest at G2/M stage by activating the ATM-CHK2 pathway. The results of the current study further indicate that lncRNA GAS5 overexpression may suppress cell migration and invasion via EMT-associated proteins. lncRNA GAS5 could therefore serve as a potential target for ESCC therapy.
