MicroRNA-365 suppressed cell proliferation and migration via targeting PAX6 in glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act an important role in the progression of tumor. In this study, we showed that the serum expression of miR-365 was downregulated in the glioblastoma compared with in the healthy controls. We also demonstrated that miR-365 expression was downregulated in glioblastoma tissues compared with the adjacent normal tissues. Overexpression of miR-365 suppressed the glioblastoma cell proliferation and migration. Moreover, ectopic expression of miR-365 promoted the expression of Ecadherin while inhibited the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin in U87 cell. Furthermore, we identified PAX6 as a direct target gene of miR-365 in U87 cell. Overexpression of miR-365 suppressed glioblastoma cell proliferation and migration and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition through inhibiting PAX6 expression. These results suggested that miR-365 played a tumor suppressor in glioblastoma.

Project description:MicroRNA (miR) are a class of small non-coding RNA that are able to inhibit gene expression by directly binding to the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of their target mRNA and thus promote translational repression or mRNA degradation. Recently, miR-9 was reported to have a suppressive role in malignant melanoma; however, the underlying mechanism remains largely unclear. In the present study, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blotting were used to examine the mRNA and protein expression levels in malignant melanoma tissues and cell lines. The MTT assay and wound healing assay were used to examine the cell viability, proliferation and migratory capacities. Bioinformatics prediction and luciferase reporter assay were performed to investigate the relationship between miR-9 and its potential target gene. The present data revealed that miR-9 expression was significantly downregulated in malignant melanoma tissues when compared with their matched adjacent non-tumor tissues. Furthermore, the expression levels of miR-9 were reduced in malignant melanoma cell lines when compared with human normal skin HACAT cells. Moreover, the ectopic expression of miR-9 significantly suppressed the proliferation and migration of malignant melanoma cells, accompanied with a remarkable decrease in the protein expression levels of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), which were markedly upregulated in malignant melanoma tissues and cell lines. Additionally, restoration of SIRT1 reversed the suppressive effects of miR-9 on the proliferation and migration of malignant melanoma cells. Luciferase reporter assay data further identified SIRT1 as a direct target gene of miR-9. To conclude, the present findings indicate that miR-9 has a suppressive role in malignant melanoma cell viability and migration, at least in part, via directly inhibiting the protein expression of its target gene, SIRT1. Therefore, miR-9 may serve as a potential candidate for the treatment of malignant melanoma.

Project description:Glioblastoma multiformae (GBM) is the most aggressive type of malignant brain tumor with complex molecular profile. Overexpression of Na+/H+ Exchanger isoform 9 (NHE9) promotes tumor progression and correlates positively with insensitivity to radiochemotherapy and poor prognosis. However, molecular mechanisms responsible for increase in NHE9 levels beyond a critical threshold have not been identified.Bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assays, real-time PCR and western blotting were conducted to examine the expression profiles and identify microRNAs (miRNA) that target NHE9. Cell proliferation and migration assays were conducted in U87 glioblastoma cells to determine the consequence of miRNA mediated targeting of NHE9. Endosomal pH measurements, immunofluorescence microscopy and surface biotinylation experiments were conducted to characterize the mechanistic basis of regulation.We show that microRNA 135a (miR-135a) targets NHE9 to downregulate its expression in U87 cells. MiR-135a levels are significantly lower in glioblastoma cells compared to normal brain tissue. Downregulation of NHE9 expression by miR-135a affects proliferative and migratory capacity of U87 cells. Selectively increasing NHE9 expression in these cells restored their ability to proliferate and migrate. We demonstrate that miR-135a takes a two-pronged approach affecting epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs) to suppress tumor cell growth and migration. EGFR activity is a potent stimulator of oncogenic signaling. While miR-135a targets EGFR transcripts to decrease the total number of receptors made, by targeting NHE9 it routes the few EGFRs made away from the plasma membrane to dampen oncogenic signaling. NHE9 is localized to sorting endosomes in glioblastoma cells where it alkalinizes the endosome lumen by leaking protons. Downregulation of NHE9 expression by miR-135a acidifies sorting endosomes limiting EGFR trafficking to the glioblastoma cell membrane.We propose downregulation of miR-135a as a potential mechanism underlying the high NHE9 expression observed in subset of glioblastomas. Future studies should explore miR-135a as a potential therapeutic for glioblastomas with NHE9 overexpression.
