MicroRNA-211 promotes proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells via targeting the bridging integrator 1 protein.

ABSTRACT: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), the most common pathological type of oral cancer, is still a frequent malignancy with unsatisfactory prognosis. Accumulating studies have proven some microRNAs (miRNAs) can function as oncogenes in OSCC by targeting tumor suppressors. In this study, we first investigated the expression and role of tumor suppressor bridging integrator-1 (BIN1) in OSCC tissues and cells. Our results indicated that BIN1 was low expressed in the OSCC tissues and cell lines (SCC6, SCC9, SCC25, HN4, and HN6) along with miR-211 was highly expressed in OSCC tissues and cell lines, and BIN1 overexpression could evidently inhibit their proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities. Next, we used bioinformation algorithms to predict the potential miRNA targeting BIN1 and chose miR-211 for further study. miR-211, a highly expressed miRNA in OSCC cells, could specifically bind with the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of BIN1 to trigger its degradation. Addition of miR-211 inhibitor could evidently suppress the malignant behaviors of OSCC cells by upregulating BIN1 expression and inhibit the activation of the EGFR/MAPK pathway. Taken together the findings of the study indicated that miR-211 mediated BIN1 downregulation had crucial significances in OSCC, suggesting the miR-211 might be a novel potential therapeutic target for the OSCC treatment.

Project description:Despite investigations into microRNA (miRNA) expression in esophageal cancer (EC) tissue, miRNAs that participate in EC pathogenesis and their subsequent mechanisms of action remain to be determined. The present study aimed to identify important miRNAs that contribute to EC development, and to assess miRNA biomarkers that could be used in EC diagnosis, prognosis and therapy. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to reanalyze EC tissue miRNA expression microarray dataset GSE113776, which was followed by in vitro verification of miRNA functions using reverse transcription?quantitative PCR, western blot analysis and a dual?luciferase reporter assay. Out of 93 miRNAs extracted, only miR?200a was significantly increased in EC tissues. Transfection of KYSE150 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells with miR?200a mimics significantly increased their proliferative, migratory and invasive ability, whereas the opposite cell behaviors were observed in ESCC cells transfected with a miR?200a inhibitor. A total of six miR?200a target genes [catenin ?1 (CTNNB1), cadherin?1 (CDH1), PTEN, adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), catenin ?1 (CTNNA1) and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2)] were selected for further analysis based on Gene Ontology terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis, protein?protein interaction network map data and protein expression in esophageal tissue. These target genes were downregulated under miR?200a expression and upregulated in the presence of the miR?200a inhibitor. The association between miR?200a and the 3'?untranslated region of target genes in ESCC cells was confirmed using a dual?luciferase reporter assay. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that miR?200a may participate in the promotion of ESCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and provided novel evidence for the direct interaction between miR?200a and CTNNB1, CDH1, PTEN, APC, CTNNA1 and SOD2, which may contribute to the observed altered cell behavior.
