LncRNA UCA1 Mediates Resistance to Cisplatin by Regulating the miR-143/FOSL2-Signaling Pathway in Ovarian Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to explore the roles of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) on cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer and the underlying mechanisms. We investigated the expression of lncRNAs in 3 paired cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant tissues of ovarian cancer by microarray analysis. The qRT-PCR analysis was to investigate the expression pattern of UCA1 in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer patient tissues and cell lines. Then we examined the effects of UCA1 on cisplatin resistance in vitro and in vivo. In this study, UCA1 was observed to be upregulated in cisplatin-resistant patient tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of UCA1 inhibited cell proliferation and promoted the cisplatin-induced cell apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. Then we demonstrated that repressed UCA1 promoted the miR-143 expression and miR-143 could bind to the predicted binding site of UCA1. Furthermore, we found that miR-143 displayed its role via modulating the FOSL2 expression. Importantly, we demonstrated that UCA1 was upregulated in serum exosomes from cisplatin-resistant patients. In summary, our study demonstrated that UCA1 modulates cisplatin resistance through the miR-143/FOSL2 pathway in ovarian cancer.

Project description:BackgroundOvarian cancer has one of the highest mortality rates among all gynaecological malignancies, and increasing evidence suggests that lncRNAs are widely involved in the development of ovarian tumours. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of the LNC00115/miR-7/ERK axis in the cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer cells.MethodsThe expression of miR-7 and LNC00115 in ovarian cancer cell lines and tissues was detected by qRT-PCR. The ovarian cancer cell lines were constructed by overexpressing or knocking down the expression of LNC00115 or miR-7. CCK-8, transwell invasion, Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and luciferase reporter assays were carried out to identify the targets of LNC00115 and explore its roles and mechanisms in ovarian cancer. A nude mouse model was established, and the expression of LNC00115, miR-7 and ERK was detected. The changes in the tumours and body weights of the nude mice were measured.ResultsLNC00115 was upregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, LNC00115 promoted the cisplatin resistance, invasion and migration of ovarian cancer cells. LNC00115 was shown to directly target miR-7, and miR-7 was downregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells. miR-7 inhibited the cisplatin resistance, invasion and migration of ovarian cancer cells and directly targeted ERK. ERK was overexpressed in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells and ovarian cancer tissues. In animal experiments, overexpression of LNC00115 enhanced the cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer cells, while miR-7 had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, LNC00115 sponged miR-7 to increase the expression of ERK, which in turn enhanced the cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer.ConclusionOur data clarify the mechanism by which the LNC00115/miR-7/ERK axis promotes cisplatin resistance and provide a new clinical strategy for combating cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.

Project description:BackgroundOvarian cancer (OC) is a high-mortality gynecological cancer that is typically treated with cisplatin, although such treatment often results in chemoresistance. Ovarian cancer resistance is usually related to cell stemness. Herein, we explored the function of lncRNA WDFY3-AS2 in OC cell resistance to cisplatin (DDP).MethodsCisplatin resistant OC A2780 cell lines (A2780-DDP) were established by long-term exposure to cisplatin. CCK-8 assay were performed to evaluate the viability of A2780, and A2780-DDP cells. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of lncRNA WDFY3-AS2, miR-139-5p, and SDC4 in A2780-DDP cell lines. After treatment with cisplatin, cell apoptosis and CD44+CD166+-positive cells were measured by flow cytometry. The transwell assays were employed to measure the effect of WDFY3-AS2 on cell migration, and invasion. In addition, tumorsphere formation assay was used to enrich OC cancer stem cells (CSCs) from A2780-DDP cells. The expression of CSC markers (SOX2, OCT4, and Nanog) was detected by western blotting. The regulatory mechanism was confirmed by RNA pull down, and luciferase reporter assays. Furthermore, xenograft tumor in nude mice was used to assess the impact of WDFY3-AS2 on cisplatin resistance in OC in vivo.ResultsWDFY3-AS2 was highly expressed in OC A2780-DDP cells, and silencing WDFY3-AS2 significantly inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion but increased apoptosis in OC A2780-DDP cells. Additionally, WDFY3-AS2 significantly promoted the A2780-DDP cells tumorspheres. WDFY3-AS2 was predicted to impact OC by sponging miR-139-5p and regulating SDC4. The xenografts inoculated with A2780-DDP cells additionally confirmed that tumor growth in vivo was reduced by si-WDFY3-AS2 transfection. MiR-139-5p inhibitor or SDC4 overexpression could restore the suppressive influence of silenced WDFY3-AS2 on tumor growth.ConclusionsTogether, WDFY3-AS2 may lead to change of cisplatin resistance by the expression of miR-139-5p/SDC4 in the OC A2870-DDP cells both in vitro and in vivo. Our finding may provide a drug target for the drug resistance of OC.
