LINC01133 promotes the progression of cervical cancer by sponging miR-4784 to up-regulate AHDC1.

ABSTRACT: Cervical cancer, as the deadliest gynecological tumor with high risk of incidence, manifests aberrantly expressed lncRNAs in the malignant cellular processes. Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1133 (LINC01133) has been acknowledged to actively participate in aggressive tumor phenotypes. Our study focused on the identification of the function and corresponding mechanism of the novel molecule, LINC01133 in cervical cancer. LINC01133 expression profile was validated by digging The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and qRT-PCR analysis. A considerably up-regulated expression of LINC01133 was unveiled. The results of CCK-8, trypan blue exclusion, EdU and transwell migration assays manifested the facilitating property of LINC01133 in cervical cancer. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was also exacerbated by LINCO1133. Apoptotic rate of cervical cancer cells was promoted after silencing LINCO1133. Mechanically, LINC01133 functioning as a ceRNA targeted miR-4784 to augment AHDC1 expression. Finally, LINCO1133/miR-4784 aggravated the malignant growth and aggressiveness and EMT of cervical cancer in an AHDC1-dependant way.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are functionally associated with cancer development and progression. Although gene copy number variation (CNV) is common in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), it is not known how CNV in lncRNAs affects HCC progression and recurrence. We aimed to identify a CNV-related lncRNA involved in HCC progression and recurrence and illustrate its underlying mechanisms and prognostic value.MethodsWe analyzed the whole genome sequencing (WGS) data of matched cancerous and noncancerous liver samples from 49 patients with HCC to identify lncRNAs with CNV. The results were validated in another cohort of 238 paired HCC and nontumor samples by TaqMan copy number assay. We preformed Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test to identify lncRNA CNV with prognostic value. We conducted loss- and gain-of-function studies to explore the biological functions of LINC01133 in vitro and in vivo. The competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) mechanism was clarified by microRNA sequencing (miR-seq), quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), western blot, and dual-luciferase reporter assays. We confirmed the binding mechanism between lncRNA and protein by RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation, qRT-PCR, and western blot analyses.ResultsGenomic copy numbers of LINC01133 were increased in HCC, which were positively related with the elevated expression of LINC01133. Increased copy number of LINC01133 predicted the poor prognosis in HCC patients. LINC01133 overexpression in HCC cells promoted proliferation and aggressive phenotypes in vitro, and facilitated tumor growth and lung metastasis in vivo, whereas LINC01133 knockdown had the opposite effects. LINC01133 sponged miR-199a-5p, resulting in enhanced expression of SNAI1, which induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in HCC cells. In addition, LINC01133 interacted with Annexin A2 (ANXA2) to activate the ANXA2/STAT3 signaling pathway.ConclusionsLINC01133 promotes HCC progression by sponging miR-199a-5p and interacting with ANXA2. LINC01133 CNV gain is predictive of poor prognosis in patients with HCC.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is a common malignancy and frequent cause of cancer-related death. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as important regulators and tissue-specific biomarkers of multiple cancers, including GC. Recent evidence has indicated that the novel lncRNA LINC01133 plays an important role in cancer progression and metastasis. However, its function and molecular mechanism in GC remain largely unknown.MethodsLINC01133 expression was detected in 200 GC and matched non-cancerous tissues by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments were conducted to investigate the biological functions of LINC01133 both in vitro and in vivo. Insights into the underlying mechanisms of competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) were determined by bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter assays, quantitative PCR arrays, TOPFlash/FOPFlash reporter assay, luciferase assay, and rescue experiments.ResultsLINC01133 was downregulated in GC tissues and cell lines, and its low expression positively correlated with GC progression and metastasis. Functionally, LINC01133 depletion promoted cell proliferation, migration, and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in GC cells, whereas LINC01133 overexpression resulted in the opposite effects both in vitro and in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase assays revealed that miR-106a-3p was a direct target of LINC01133, which functioned as a ceRNA in regulating GC metastasis. Mechanistic analysis demonstrated that miR-106a-3p specifically targeted the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, and LINC01133/miR-106a-3p suppressed the EMT and metastasis by inactivating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in an APC-dependent manner.ConclusionsOur findings suggest that reduced expression of LINC01133 is associated with aggressive tumor phenotypes and poor patient outcomes in GC. LINC01133 inhibits GC progression and metastasis by acting as a ceRNA for miR-106a-3p to regulate APC expression and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, suggesting that LINC01133 may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and anti-metastatic therapeutic target for GC.
