MicroRNA-211 regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration/invasion in human osteosarcoma via targeting EZRIN.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In recent years, microRNA-211 (miR211) has been considered as a tumor suppressor in multiple malignancies. However, the function of miR211 in human osteosarcoma has not been explored intensively so far. In this study, the relationship between miR211 and EZRIN was analyzed in human osteosarcoma.

Methods

The expression levels of miR211 and EZRIN were measured in both human osteosarcoma cells and tissues. The direct regulatory relationship between miR211 and EZRIN was evaluated using dual-luciferase assay. The effect of miR211 and EZRIN overexpression on cell proliferation, migration/invasion, and apoptosis was detected.

Results

The expression of miR211 was obviously lower in osteosarcoma tissues than paracancerous tissues. EZRIN was identified as the direct target of miR211, and up-regulation of miR211 increased the percentage of cell apoptosis, and suppressed cell proliferation as well as cell migration/invasion via directly regulating EZRIN.

Conclusions

Our study indicated that miR211 has an important role in the development and progress of osteosarcoma, and it might become a novel target in the diagnosis and treatment of human osteosarcoma.

MicroRNA-545-5p regulates apoptosis, migration and invasion of osteosarcoma by targeting dimethyladenosine transferase 1.

Project description:The metastasis of osteosarcoma is a major threat to both adolescents and young adults. Identifying novel targets that may prevent osteosarcoma metastasis is critical in developing advanced clinical therapies for treating this cancer. The present study aimed to explore the mechanism of microRNA (miR)-545-5p in the metastasis of osteosarcoma. The present study identified miR-545-5p as a potential target that was downregulated in both osteosarcoma clinical samples and cell lines, and in the latter, ectopically expressed miR-545-5p caused apoptosis. In addition, miR-545-5p exerted inhibitory effects in osteosarcoma migration and invasion. Overexpression of miR-545-5p induced xenograft growth inhibition in vivo. In addition, miR-545-5p targeted dimethyladenosine transferase 1 (DIMT1), an oncogenic protein that facilitates osteosarcoma proliferation, migration and invasion. Taken together, the results of the present study suggest that miR-545-5p functions as a tumor suppressor in osteosarcoma that promotes apoptosis, while inhibiting migration and invasion by targeting DIMT1. Taken together, the results of the present study suggest two potential novel targets for osteosarcoma treatment and metastasis prevention.

MicroRNA-876-5p inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting c-Met in osteosarcoma.

Project description:Recently, aberrant expression of miR-876-5p has been reported to participate in the progression of several human cancers. However, the expression and function of miR-876-5p in osteosarcoma (OS) are still unknown. Here, we found that the expression of miR-876-5p was significantly down-regulated in OS tissues compared to para-cancerous tissues. Clinical association analysis indicated that underexpression of miR-876-5p was positively correlated with advanced clinical stage and poor differentiation. More importantly, OS patients with low miR-876-5p level had a significant shorter overall survival compared to miR-876-5p high-expressing patients. In addition, gain- and loss-of-function experiments demonstrated that miR-876-5p restoration suppressed whereas miR-876-5p knockdown promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion in both U2OS and MG63 cells. In vivo studies revealed that miR-876-5p overexpression inhibited tumour growth of OS in mice. Mechanistically, miR-876-5p reduced c-Met abundance in OS cells and inversely correlated c-Met expression in OS tissues. Herein, c-Met was recognized as a direct target of miR-876-5p using luciferase reporter assay. Notably, c-Met restoration rescued miR-876-5p attenuated the proliferation, migration and invasion of OS cells. In conclusion, these findings indicate that miR-876-5p may be used as a potential therapeutic target and promising biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of OS.

Circ_0000285 regulates proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of osteosarcoma by miR-409-3p/IGFBP3 axis.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are important regulators in the pathogenesis of diseases and affects the occurrence and development of diseases. However, the role of circRNAs in osteosarcoma (OS) has not been fully elucidated.MethodsThe expression of circ_0000285, miR-409-3p and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) was detected using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The protein level of IGFBP3 was measured using western blot. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used to determine cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was applied to measure cell cycle and cell apoptosis. Transwell assay was used to assess cell invasion and migration. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were performed to determine the relationship among circ_0000285, miR-409-3p and IGFBP3. The animal experiments were performed to determine the function of circ_0000285 in vivo.ResultsIn this study, we found that the expression of circ_0000285 was significantly increased in OS tissues and cells and was enriched in the cytoplasm. Knockdown of circ_0000285 inhibited OS growth in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, miR-409-3p was a target miRNA of circ_0000285 and miR-409-3p targets to IGFBP3 in OS. Besides, circ_0000285 could promote proliferation, migration, invasion and inhibit apoptosis of osteosarcoma by miR-409-3p/IGFBP3 axis.ConclusionIn this study, circ_0000285 regulated proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of OS cells by miR-409-3p/IGFBP3 axis, implying that circ_0000285 was a potential target for OS therapy.

MicroRNA-211-5p suppresses tumour cell proliferation, invasion, migration and metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer by directly targeting SETBP1.

Project description:BackgroundTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 15-20% of all breast cancer in women globally. This subtype often has early and high recurrence rates, resulting in poor survival, partially due to lack of targeted therapies. To date, the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying TNBC progression are unclear. Given the crucial role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer metastasis, we aimed to analyse the expression and function of a metastasis-associated miRNA named miR-211-5p in TNBC.MethodsMiRNA array analysis was performed to search for metastasis-associated miRNAs in TNBC. The miR-211-5p expression in tumour tissues, adjacent non-tumourous breast tissues of TNBC patients and cell lines were evaluated by real-time PCR. The protein expression levels were analysed by western blot, immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridisation. Luciferase reporter assays were employed to validate the target of miR-211-5p. The effect of miR-211-5p on TNBC progression was investigated in vitro and in vivo.ResultsMiR-211-5p was significantly downregulated in TNBC, and its expression level was associated with overall survival in TNBC. The expression of miR-211-5p suppressed TNBC cell proliferation, invasion, migration and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, SETBP1 was identified as a target of miR-211-5p. Through gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies, SETBP1 was shown to significantly affect colony and cell number in vitro. Enforced expression of miR-211-5p inhibited the expression of SETBP1 significantly and the restoration of SETBP1 expression reversed the inhibitory effects of miR-211-5p on TNBC cell proliferation and metastasis.ConclusionsThese findings collectively demonstrate a tumour suppressor role of miR-211-5p in TNBC progression by targeting SETBP1, suggesting that miR-211-5p could serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for TNBC.

MicroRNA-448 suppresses osteosarcoma cell proliferation and invasion through targeting EPHA7.

Project description:Osteosarcoma is the most common type of malignant bone tumor, often affecting adolescents and children. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of small, non-protein coding, endogenous RNAs that play critical roles in osteosarcoma tumorigenesis. In our study, we demonstrated that miR-448 expression was downregulated in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-448 suppressed osteosarcoma cell proliferation, colony formation and migration. Moreover, we found that EPHA7 was a direct target gene of miR-448 in osteosarcoma cells. We further demonstrated that the EPHA7 expression level was upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues. Interestingly, the expression level of EPHA7 was inversely correlated with the expression level of miR-448 in osteosarcoma tissues. In addition, elevated expression of miR-448 suppressed osteosarcoma cell proliferation and invasion through targeting EPHA7. Taken together, these findings suggest that miR-448 functioned as a tumor suppressor gene in the development of osteosarcoma through targeting EPHA7.

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

Project description: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.

TRIP6 regulates the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells by activating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Project description:Thyroid hormone receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6), a member of the zyxin family of Lin-Isl-Mec (LIM) proteins, is an adaptor protein primarily expressed in epithelial cells. TRIP6 can regulate a variety of cellular responses, such as actin cytoskeletal reorganization and cell adhesion. However, to the best of our knowledge, the role of TRIP6 in osteosarcoma (Os) has not been previously reported. Therefore, the present study investigated the role of TRIP6 in the occurrence and development of Os, and the potential of utilizing TRIP6 as a therapeutic target in Os. The present results suggested that the expression levels of TRIP6 were significantly increased in Os cells and clinical tissue specimens compared with normal osteoblasts and adjacent non-tumor tissue. Moreover, the present results suggested that overexpressing TRIP6 significantly increased proliferation, migration and invasion, while inhibiting apoptosis in Os cells. However, silencing TRIP6 decreased proliferation, migration and invasion, while activating apoptosis in Os cells. The present results suggested that overexpression of TRIP6 increased NF-κB activation by decreasing the protein expression levels of inhibitor of κBα, and increasing total and phosphorylated P65 levels. The present results indicated that TRIP6 silencing decreased NF-κB activation. Collectively, the present results suggested that TRIP6 may play a role in promoting Os cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while inhibiting cell apoptosis. Furthermore, TRIP6 may be utilized as a novel prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in Os.

MiRNA-211 suppresses cell proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting SPARC in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that the expression of miR-211 was downregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular function and mechanism of miR-211 in HCC growth and invasion are largely unclear. We found that miR-211 is downregulated in HCC tissues and cell lines, respectively. Further results showed that low miR-211 associated with TNM stage, vein invasion status, and poor prognosis. Ectopic expression of miR-211 effectively suppressed HCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion both in vitro and in vivo. We identified SPARC as a bona fide target of miR-211, and overexpression of miR-211 decreased the mRNA and protein expression of SPARC. Finally, we confirmed that the overexpression of SPARC in miR-211-expressing HCC cells can partially restore the inhibitory effect of miR-211. Taken together, our results demonstrated that loss of miR-211 expression and thus uncontrolled SPARC overexpression might drive progression of HCC, which may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of HCC.

MicroRNA-433 regulates apoptosis by targeting PDCD4 in human osteosarcoma cells.

Project description:Osteosarcoma is the most common aggressive sarcoma of the bone in children and adolescents. It is characterized by a high level of genetic instability and recurrent DNA deletions and amplifications. microRNAs (miRNAs) play a key role in cancer initiation, progression and metastasis; however, the potential role of miRNAs in osteosarcoma remains largely unknown. In the present study, miR-433 was shown to be overexpressed in osteosarcoma tissues compared with normal human osteoblasts. Transfection of miR-433 mimics into osteosarcoma cell lines significantly decreased apoptosis by targeting programmed cell death 4, a tumor suppressor that is involved in apoptosis. In contrast, inhibition of miR-433 enhanced apoptosis. Furthermore, in vivo miR-433 overexpression inhibited the apoptosis of tumor cells and increased tumor growth. The results of the present study suggested that miR-433 is a potential molecular target for osteosarcoma therapy.

MicroRNA-153 inhibits osteosarcoma cells proliferation and invasion by targeting TGF-β2.

Project description:Increasing evidence indicates that microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small noncoding RNAs, participate in almost every step of cellular processes. MiRNAs are aberrantly expressed in human cancers and contribute to cancer development and progression. Study of miRNAs may provide a new clue for understanding the mechanism of carcinogenesis and a new tool for cancer treatment. In the present study, miR-153 was downregulated in human osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Introduction of miR-153 mimics into the MG-63 cells inhibited cell proliferation and invasion. Our results further revealed that transforming growth factor beta 2 (TGF-β2) was negatively regulated by miR-153. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-153 decreased p-SMAD2, p-SMAD3, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) expressions, which were the downstream signaling molecules of TGF-β. Furthermore, miRNA-153 suppressed TGF-β-mediated MG-63 proliferation and migration. Therefore, our results suggest that miR-153 may act as a tumor suppressor in osteosarcoma through targeting TGF-β2.
