The long noncoding RNA MIR210HG promotes tumor metastasis by acting as a ceRNA of miR-1226-3p to regulate mucin-1c expression in invasive breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Long noncoding RNAs have been known to be involved in multiple types of malignancies, including invasive breast cancer (IBC). This study aimed to explore the role of long noncoding RNAs in IBC and elucidate the potential molecular mechanisms. METHODS:Using TCGA microarray data analysis, we identified a long noncoding RNA, MIR210HG, highly expressed in IBC. Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test were used for survival analysis. The gain-of-function experiments were performed to assess the function of MIR210HG in IBC invasion and migration in both in vitro and in vivo settings. Bioinformatic analysis as well as luciferase reporter assay, rescue experiments and western blot assay revealed the mode of action of MIR210HG. RESULTS:The aberrantly enhanced MiR210HG expression predicted poor prognosis and lower survival rate. Knockdown of MiR210HG suppressed IBC cell invasion and metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. MiR-1226-3p was identified and validated to be the target miRNA of MiR210HG. Furthermore, MiR210HG functions as a competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) which sponges miR-1226-3p, therefore upregulates the expression of mucin1 (MUC1-C). CONCLUSIONS:Our study demonstrated that MiR210HG sponges miR-1226-3p to facilitate invasive breast cancer cell invasion and metastasis by regulating mucin-1c and EMT pathway, revealing the oncogenic role of MiR210HG in IBC cells.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical regulatory functions in biological and pathological activities during osteosarcoma progression. It is important to elucidate the expression pattern and reveal the underlying mechanisms of the newly identified lncRNAs.MethodsHerein, we screened the differentially expressed lncRNAs in osteosarcoma tumors and cell lines using lncRNA microarray. The candidate lncRNA was further verified by qRT-PCR, and the association of gene expression with clinicopathological features was evaluated by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The targeting miRNA was identified using starBase analysis, and the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was established by STRING. Overexpression and silence of RNA were detected by qRT-PCR. Osteosarcoma cell proliferation was measured with CCK-8 assay, and the migration and invasion were evaluated with Transwell assay. Colony formation assay was observed. Flow cytometry evaluated the cell cycle. Western blot was performed to detect the mitotic markers and apoptosis-related proteins. A nude mouse tumor formation experiment was used to evaluate osteosarcoma progression in vivo. Cooverexpressing miR-34b-3p with RAD51 reversed the miR-34b-3p-induced changes in proliferation, the cell cycle, the expression of H2A.X, and that of apoptosis-related proteins.ResultsHCG9 was identified as osteosarcoma-associated lncRNA. Osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines expressed higher levels of HCG9 as compared to normal tissues and osteoblasts, and high expression of HCG9 was further proved to be related to metastasis and the grade of osteosarcoma in clinical cases. Knockdown of HCG9 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma cells. miR-34b-3p was identified as the target of HCG9, and RAD51 acted as a potential target of miR-34b-3p. Cooverexpressing miR-34b-3p with HCG9 partially suppressed the HCG9-stimulated proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma cells in vitro and delayed the tumor progression in vivo.ConclusionWe discovered that lncRNA HCG9 promoted the proliferation of osteosarcoma cells via suppressing miR-34b-3p. Our study provides novel biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for osteosarcoma treatment.

Project description:Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) virus infection is a major risk factor for cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) immune escape is regulated by the exhaustion of virus-specific CD8+ T cells, which is associated with abnormal expression of negative regulatory molecule CD244. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. To investigate the important roles of non-coding RNAs play in CD244 regulating HBV immune escape, we performed microarray analysis to determine the differential expression profiles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and mRNAs in patients with CHB and patients with spontaneous clearance of HBV. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) was analyzed by bioinformatics methods and confirmed by the dual-luciferase reporter assay. Furthermore, gene silencing and overexpression experiments were used to further identify the roles of lncRNA and miRNA in HBV immune escape through CD244 regulation. The results showed that the expression of CD244 on the surface of CD8+ T cells was significantly increased in CHB patients and in the co-culture system of T cells and HBV-infected HepAD38 cells, which was accompanied by the reduction of miR-330-3p and the elevation of lnc-AIFM2-1. The down-regulated miR-330-3p induced the apoptosis of T cells by lifting the inhibition of CD244, which was reversed by miR-330-3p mimic or CD244-siRNA. Lnc-AIFM2-1 promotes the accumulation of CD244, which is mediated by decreased miR-330-3p, and then reduced the clearance ability of CD8+ T cells to HBV through regulated CD244 expression. And the injury in the ability of CD8+ T cells to clear HBV can be reversed by lnc-AIFM2-1-siRNA, miR-330-3p mimic, or CD244-siRNA. Collectively, our findings indicate that lnc-AIFM2-1 on CD244 by acting as a ceRNA of miR-330-3p contributes to HBV immune escape, which may provide novel insights into the roles of interaction networks among lncRNA, miRNA, and mRNA in HBV immune escape, highlighting potential applications of lnc-AIFM2-1 and CD244 for diagnosis and treatment in CHB.
