Upregulated circRNA ARHGAP10 Predicts an Unfavorable Prognosis in NSCLC through Regulation of the miR-150-5p/GLUT-1 Axis.

ABSTRACT: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the deadliest cancers in the world. Circular RNA (circRNA) has been shown to participate in oncogenesis regulation, including lung cancer. Although the involvement of circRNAs in lung cancer has been reported, the regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs in NSCLC remain poorly understood. Thus, the present study aims at investigating the role of circARHGAP10 in NSCLC progression, which has been observed to be significantly upregulated in both NSCLC tissues and cell lines with profile analysis. A higher expression of circARHGAP10 also leads to a poor prognosis in NSCLC patients with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Both in vitro and in vivo experiments found that the downregulation of circARHGAP10 suppressed glycometabolism by decreasing GLUT1 expression. Silencing circARHGAP10 also suppressed proliferation and metastasis by targeting the miR-150-5p/GLUT1 axis in NSCLC, which was confirmed with a luciferase reporter assay. Overexpression of GLUT1 or downregulation miR-150-5p will recover NSCLC cell proliferation and metastasis after a knockdown of circARHGAP10. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that circARHGAP10 suppresses NSCLC progression by acting as a miR-150-5p sponge to promote GLUT1 expression. Thus, circARHGAP10 may be a potential target for NSCLC treatment.

Project description:Dysregulation of circular RNAs (circRNAs) has recently been found to play an important role in the progression and development of cancers such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Yet the functions of many circRNAs in NSCLC remain unclear. In this study, the circRNA expression profiles in NSCLC tumor tissues and adjacent non-tumorous tissues were detected by high-throughput sequencing. Bioinformatics analyses, the dual-luciferase reporter system, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and miRNA/mRNA high-throughput sequencing were used to identify circ-EPB41 and its downstream target. The subcutaneous tumor/caudal vein transfer mouse model was used for tumor growth and invasion analysis. The results show that the circ-EPB41 was upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Increased circ-EPB41 expression in NSCLC was significantly correlated with malignant characteristics, and positive to post-surgical overall survival of NSCLC patients. Reduced circ-EPB41 expression in NSCLC decreased cell proliferation and invasion in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. The miRNA/mRNA high-throughput sequencing suggested that downregulation of circ-EPB41 promoted microRNA (miR)-486-3p and suppressed eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) expression. Luciferase reporter experiments confirmed that miR-486-3p/eIF5A were downstream targets of circ-EPB41. In addition, we also found that downregulation of circ-EPB41 suppressed self-renewal and decreased expression of stemness markers SOX2, OCT-4, Nanog and CD133 by sponging miR-486-3p to enhance eIF5A expression. Taken togeter, these data revealed the important role of circ-EPB41 in regulating NSCLC cell invasion and proliferation by modifying miR-486-3p/eIF5A axis-mediated stemness. We believe our study provides a novel perspective regarding the role of circRNAs in NSCLC progression.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNA RHOT1 (circRHOT1) plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis by competing with microRNAs. It is largely abundant in tumor cell-derived exosomes. Meanwhile, cancer-derived exosomes participate in diverse biological processes. However, the expression patterns and functions of exosomal circRHOT1 in breast cancer remain unknown. This study is aimed to investigate and elucidate the exosomal circRHOT1/miR-204-5p/PRMT5 axis in breast cancer.MethodsThe exosomes derived from serum samples of breast cancer patients and breast cancer cell lines were characterized using transmission electron microscopy and Western blot. MTT, colony formation, wound healing, and transwell assays were utilized to analyze cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. Flow cytometry was used for apoptosis analysis. The bioinformatics method was employed to screen differentially expressed novel circRNAs and predict the microRNA targets of circRHOT1. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assays were performed to verify their direct interaction. Finally, Xenograft experiments were used to investigate the effect of exosomal circRHOT1 on tumor growth in vivo.ResultsCircRHOT1 exhibited significantly high expression in exosomes derived from the serum of breast cancer patients and breast cancer cell lines, which suggested its potential diagnostic value. Breast cancer-derived exosomes promoted the cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of breast cancer cells while inhibiting apoptosis. However, exosomes with downregulated circRHOT1 inhibited the growth of co-cultured cells. Mechanistically, circRHOT1 acted as a sponge of miR-204-5p and promoted protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) expression. Moreover, miR-204-5p inhibitor and pcPRMT5 could reverse the tumor suppressive effects mediated by circRHOT1-knockdown. Furthermore, treatment with exosomes derived from breast cancer cells with circRHOT1 knockdown attenuated tumor growth in tumor-bearing nude mice, which was accompanied by a reduction in PRMT5 expression and an enhancement of miR-204-5p expression.ConclusionThe exosomal circRHOT1 may promote breast cancer progression by regulating the miR-204-5p/PRMT5 axis. The current study strengthens the role of circRHOT1, miR-204-5p, and PRMT5 in breast cancer development and provides a potential treatment strategy for breast cancer.
