MiR-183-5p Inhibits Occurrence and Progression of Acute Myeloid Leukemia via Targeting Erbin.

ABSTRACT: Erbin has been shown to have significant effects on the development of solid tumors. However, little is known about its function and regulatory mechanism in hematological malignancies. The biological function of Erbin on cell proliferation was measured in vitro and in vivo. The predicted target of Erbin was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay and rescue experiment. We found that overexpression of Erbin could inhibit the cell proliferation and promote the cell differentiation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, whereas depletion of Erbin could enhance the cell proliferation and block the cell differentiation in AML cells in vitro and in vivo. Besides, miR-183-5p was identified as the upstream regulator that negatively regulated the Erbin expression. The results were confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assay. Furthermore, we found that miR-183-5p negatively regulated Erbin, resulting in enhanced cell proliferation of AML cells via activation of RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK and PI3K/AKT/FoxO3a pathways. The activation of RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK and PI3K/AKT/FoxO3a pathways was mediated by Erbin interacting with Grb2. These results were also validated by rescue experiments in vitro and in vivo. All above-mentioned findings indicated that the miR-183-5p/Erbin signaling pathway might represent a novel prognostic biomarker or therapeutic target for treatment of AML.

Project description:BackgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant clonal disease of hematopoietic stem- and progenitor-cell origin. AML features massive proliferation of abnormal blasts and leukemia cells in the bone marrow and the inhibition of normal hematopoiesis at onset. Exosomes containing proteins or nucleic acids are secreted by cells; they participate in intercellular communication and serve as key modulators of hematopoiesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the regulation of AML and the underlying mechanisms mediated by microRNA (miRNA).MethodsDysregulated miR-7-5p in AML patients was identified using qRT-PCR and its clinical significance was explored. Bioinformatic analysis revealed the target gene OSBPL11 that could be regulated by miR-7-5p. The findings were validated using a dual-luciferase reporter assay and western blotting. The functional genes of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway were identified, and the functional significance of miR-7-5p in AML cells was determined using a functional recovery assay. AML cells were co-cultured with exosomes originating from BMSCs overexpressing miR-7-5p to determine cell-cell regulation by Exo-miR-7-5p, as well as in vitro and in vivo functional validation via gain- and loss-of-function methods.ResultsExpression of miR-7-5p was decreased in AML patients and cells. Overexpression of miR-7-5p curbed cellular proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Overexpression of OSBPL11 reversed the tumorigenic properties of miR-7-5p in AML cells in vitro. Exo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs induced formation of AML cells prone to apoptosis and a low survival rate, with OSBPL11 expression inhibited through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Exo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs exhibited tumor homing effects in vitro and in vivo, and inhibited AML development.ConclusionsExo-miR-7-5p derived from BMSCs negatively regulates OSBPL11 by suppressing the phosphorylation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting AML proliferation and promoting apoptosis. The data will inform the development of AML therapies based on BMSC-derived exosomes.

Project description:BackgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression is mediated by changes in gene expression induced by microRNAs. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-183-5p and its target gene in lung cancer development.MethodsRelative levels of miR-183-5p and lysyl oxidase-like 4 (LOXL4) expression in lung cancer cells or tissues were measured by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), immunofluorescence or Western blotting as appropriate. The binding of miR-183-5p to LOXL4 sequences was verified by a dual luciferase reporter assay, and cell proliferation was assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and Edu staining. The cell cycle stage and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry, and Transwell assays were performed to evaluate cell migration and invasion capabilities. The tumorigenic capability of cancer cells was analyzed using a cancer cell line-based xenograft nude mouse model.ResultsmiR-183-5p expression was decreased in the lung cancer tissues and cell lines and was negatively correlated with elevated LOXL4 expression. Treatment with miR-183-5p mimics suppressed LOXL4 expression, while treatment with an miR-183-5p inhibitor promoted LOXL4 expression in A549 cells. miR-183-5p was found to directly bind to the 3' UTR of the LOXL4 gene in A549 cells. Overexpression of LOXL4 enhanced cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, migration, and invasion, but repressed their apoptosis, and activated extracellular matrix (ECM) and the epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in A549 cells, while LOXL4 knockdown produced the opposite effects. Treatment with an miR-183-5P inhibitor promoted the proliferation, cell cycle progression, migration, and invasion of A549 cells but suppressed their apoptosis, and activated the ECM and EMT process, while all these effects were abrogated by LOXL4 knockdown. The tumorigenic capability of A540 cells in nude mice was greatly impaired by treatment with miR-183-5p mimics.ConclusionsmiR-183-5p repressed the proliferation, migration, invasion, ECM formation, and EMT processes, and promoted the apoptosis of lung cancer cells by targeting LOXL4 expression.

Project description:Glioma is an extremely aggressive malignant neoplasm of the central nervous system. MicroRNA (miRNA) are known to bind to specific target mRNA to regulate post-transcriptional gene expression and are, therefore, currently regarded as promising biomarkers for glioma diagnosis and prognosis. The aim of the present study was to examine the pathogenesis and potential molecular markers of glioma by comparing the differential expression of miRNA and mRNA between glioma tissue and peritumor brain tissue. We explored the impact of screened core miRNA and mRNA on cell proliferation, invasion, and migration of glioma. An miRNA expression profile dataset (GSE90603) and a transcriptome profile dataset (GSE90598) were downloaded from combined miRNA-mRNA microarray chips in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Overall, 59 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) and 419 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the R limma software package. FunRich software was used to predict DEM target genes and miRNA-gene pairs, and Perl software was used to find overlapping genes between DEGs and DEM target genes. There were 129 overlapping genes regulated by nine miRNAs between target genes of the DEMs and DEGs. The Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas(CGGA) was analyzed in order to identify miRNAs with diagnostic and prognostic significance. MiR-139-5p, miR-137, and miR-338-3p were validated to be significantly linked to prognosis in glioma patients. Finally, we validated that miR-139-5p affected glioma malignant biological behavior via targeting gamma-aminobutyric acid A receptor alpha 1(GABRA1) through rescue experiments. Low miR-139-5p expression was correlated with survival probability and World Health Organization (WHO) grade. MiR-139-5p overexpression inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of glioma in vitro. GABRA1 was identified as a functional downstream target of miR-139-5p. Decreased GABRA1 expression was related to similar biological roles as miR-139-5p overexpression while upregulation of GABRA1 effectively reversed the inhibition effects of miR-139-5p. These results demonstrate a novel axis for miR-139-5p/GABRA1 in glioma progression and provide potential prognostic predictors and therapeutic target for glioma patients.
