FOXP1-induced lncRNA CLRN1-AS1 acts as a tumor suppressor in pituitary prolactinoma by repressing the autophagy via inactivating Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: As the commonest type of functional pituitary tumor, prolactinoma takes up around 40-60% of functional pituitary tumors. Despite dedications attributed to the treatment of prolactinoma, complete cure remains difficult. Hence, it is of significance to bring to light the underlying mechanism of prolactinoma. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of transcripts which can regulate various biological processes. In the present study, we explored an lncRNA that was differentially downregulated in prolactinoma samples. LncRNA clarin 1 antisense RNA 1 (CLRN1-AS1) was downregulated in 42 patient samples and inactivated the Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway. Functionally, CLRN1-AS1 suppressed cell proliferation, promoted apoptosis, and inhibited autophagy. Subcellular fractionation assay revealed that CLRN1-AS1 was located in the cytoplasm of prolactinoma cells. Based on bioinformatics analysis and mechanism experiments, we determined that CLRN1-AS1 acted as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR-217 to upregulate the dickkopf WNT signaling pathway inhibitor 1 (DKK1). Furthermore, Forkhead box P1 (FOXP1) was verified to be a transcription suppressor of CLRN1-AS1. In summary, this study revealed that FOXP1-induced CLRN1-AS1 regulated cellular functions in pituitary prolactinoma by sponging miR-217 to release the DKK1/Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway.

Project description:Pituitary prolactinoma is one of the most complicated and fatally pathogenic pituitary adenomas. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanism that drives the initiation, progression, and metastasis of pituitary prolactinoma. The aim of the present study was to identify the key genes and signaling pathways associated with pituitary prolactinoma using bioinformatics analysis. Transcriptome microarray dataset GSE119063 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Limma package in R software was used to screen DEGs. Pathway and Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis were conducted to identify the biological role of DEGs. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed and analyzed by using HIPPIE database and Cytoscape software. Module analyses was performed. In addition, a target gene-miRNA regulatory network and target gene-TF regulatory network were constructed by using NetworkAnalyst and Cytoscape software. Finally, validation of hub genes by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. A total of 989 DEGs were identified, including 461 up regulated genes and 528 down regulated genes. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in the retinoate biosynthesis II, signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells, ALK2 signaling events, vitamin D3 biosynthesis, cell cycle and aurora B signaling. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in the sensory organ morphogenesis, extracellular matrix, hormone activity, nuclear division, condensed chromosome and microtubule binding. In the PPI network and modules, SOX2, PRSS45, CLTC, PLK1, B4GALT6, RUNX1 and GTSE1 were considered as hub genes. In the target gene-miRNA regulatory network and target gene-TF regulatory network, LINC00598, SOX4, IRX1 and UNC13A were considered as hub genes. Using integrated bioinformatics analysis, we identified candidate genes in pituitary prolactinoma, which might improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of pituitary prolactinoma.
