Identification of Potential Prostate Cancer-Related Pseudogenes Based on Competitive Endogenous RNA Network Hypothesis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been revealed to function as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), which can seclude the common microRNAs (miRNAs) and hence prevent the miRNAs from binding to their ancestral gene. Nonetheless, the role of lncRNA-mediated ceRNAs in prostate cancer has not yet been elucidated. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, lncRNA, miRNA, and mRNA profiles from 499 prostate cancer tissues and 52 normal prostate tissues were analyzed with the R package "DESeq" to identify the differentially expressed RNAs. GO and KEGG pathway analyses were performed using "DAVID6.8" and R packages "Clusterprofile." The ceRNA network in prostate cancer was constructed using miRDB, miRTarBase, and TargetScan databases. Survival analysis was performed with Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS A total of 376 lncRNAs, 33 miRNAs, and 687 mRNAs were identified as significant factors in tumorigenesis. Based on the hypothesis that the ceRNA network (lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory axis) is involved in prostate cancer and forms competitive interrelations between miRNA and mRNA or lncRNA, we constructed a ceRNA network that included 23 lncRNAs, 6 miRNAs, and 2 mRNAs that were differentially expressed in prostate cancer. Only 3 lncRNAs (LINC00308, LINC00355, and OSTN-AS1) had a significant association with survival (P<0.05). The 3 prostate cancer-specific lncRNA were validated in prostate cancer cell lines PC3 and DU145 using qRT-PCR. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated the differential lncRNA expression profiles in prostate cancer, which provides new insights for future studies of the ceRNA network and its regulatory mechanisms in prostate cancer.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory network of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).MethodsThe gene expression profile GSE74089 of ONFH and microRNA (miRNA) expression profile of GSE89587 were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The GSE74089 contained four ONFH samples and four controls. The GSE89587 included 10 ONFH samples and 10 control samples. The differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs) and DE-mRNAs between ONFH group and control group were identified from GSE74089 using the limma package based on criteria of adjusted P value <0.05 and |log fold change (FC)| ≥2. The DEmiRNAs between ONFH group and control group were screened from GSE89587 on the basis of adjusted P value <0.05. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway for DE-mRNAs were analyzed using DAVID 6.7 and GSEA 3.0, respectively. Coexpressed lncRNA-mRNA pairs were identified by corr.test method in R based on the criteria of adjusted P value <0.01 and |r| ≥ 0.9. A ceRNA network was constructed and visualized using cytoscape 3.7.0 by integrating the DE-lncRNA, DE-miRNA, and DEmRNA data. The key mRNAs and lncRNAs in the ceRNA network were further validated in an independent dataset of GSE123568.ResultsBased on our analysis, a total of 28 DE-lncRNAs, 1403 DE-mRNAs, and 134 DE-miRNAs were identified, respectively. The DE-mRNAs were significantly enriched in the function of "skeletal system development," "collagen fibril organization," "blood vessel development," and "regulation of nervous system development." Besides, 72 KEGG pathways, including eight active pathways and 64 suppressed pathways were identified, including which immune pathway was the most significantly activated one and which ribosome-related function was the most suppressed. A co-expression network including 161 DE-mRNAs and 16 DE-lncRNAs was built. Highly connected nodes were identified among lncRNAs such as H19, C20orf203, LINC00355, SFTA3, CRNDE, CASC2, LINC00494, C9orf163, C10orf91, and LINC00301. The ceRNA network indicated that lncRNA H19 functioned as a ceRNA of hsa-miR-519b-3p and hsa-miR-296-5p in ANKH and ECHDC1 regulation; lncRNA C9orf163 functioned as a ceRNA of hsa-miR-424-5p in CCNT1 regulation. The expression trends of ANKH, CCNT1, and C9orf163 were successfully validated in independent dataset of GSE123568.ConclusionThe ceRNAs of lncRNA H19- hsa-miR-519b-3p/hsa-miR-296-5p-ANKH and lncRNA c9orf163- hsa-miR-424-5p-CCNT1 might play important roles in ONFH development. Our research provided an understanding of the important role of lncRNA-related ceRNAs in ONFH.
