Circular RNA circ-CMPK1 contributes to cell proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer by elevating cyclin D1 via sponging miR-302e.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:It is well recognized that competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network is linked to the development and progression of cancer, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein, we aimed to explore the functional role of circ-CMPK1/miR-302e/cyclin D1 ceRNA signaling in NSCLC. METHODS:GEO database (GSE102287) was utilized to screen differentially expressed miRNAs in NSCLC. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blotting assays were used to determine gene expression. Cell proliferation analysis was performed with Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and cell cycle assays. Luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays were conducted to identify the interaction among circ-CMPK1, miR-302e, and cyclin D1. Xenograft tumor model was established to evaluate the role of circ-CMPK1/miR-302e/cyclin D1 axis in vivo. RESULTS:miR-302e expression was significantly down-regulated in NSCLC cell lines and tissues and its decrease was closely associated with aggressive clinicopathological features and unfavorable outcome. Overexpression and knockdown of miR-302e obviously retarded and enhanced the growth of NSCLC, respectively. Furthermore, we found that miR-302 was sponged by circular RNA CMPK1 (circ-CMPK1, hsa_circ_0012384), which was remarkably up-regulated in NSCLC and predicted poor prognosis. Circ-CMPK1 was capable to promote NSCLC cells proliferation by increasing the expression of cyclin D1 via inhibiting miR-302 activity. Moreover the miR-302e-mediated tumor inhibition could be effectively counteracted by ectopic expression of circ-CMPK1 or cyclin D1 both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION:Our data demonstrate for the first time that circ-CMPK1/miR-302e/cyclin D1 signaling plays an essential regulatory role in NSCLC and targeting this axis may be an efficacious avenue for treatment of NSCLC patients.

Project description:ObjectiveCirc-centro-some/spindle pole-associated protein (CSPP1) has been confirmed to be characterized in diverse human malignancies and its ectopic expression may regulate tumor progression and development. However, in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), its biological role, clinical significance and molecular mechanism are still unclear.MethodsCirc-CSPP1 expression and its prognostic values in HCC tissues were detected by qRT-PCR or in situ hybridization (ISH), and enriched by using Rnase R. The functional experiments (Circ-CSPP1 was overexpressed or knocked down) were performed in HCC cells. The HCC cell growth was analyzed by CCK-8 assay, transwell, wound healing and colony formation assays. The interation between circ-CSPP1 and miR-577/miR-577 and cyclin E2 (CCNE2) were determined by dual luciferase assay or RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. The RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay was used to detect the subcellular distribution. Finally, an in vivo nude mouse tumor model was constructed.ResultsIn HCC patients and cells, circ-CSPP1 was aberrantly expressed, and its upregulation predicted poor prognosis, and closely correlated with tumor size and TNM stage. Circ-CSPP1 resisted RnaseR digestion, indicating it is a circular RNA structure. Moreover, overexpression of circ-CSPP1 promoted HCC cell viability, colony formation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Knockdown of circ-CSPP1 showed contrary results. Circ-CSPP1 acts as a miR-577 sponge and positively regulated the target of miR-577, CCNE2. Besides, miR-577 inhibitor rescued the suppressive effects of circ-CSPP1 knockdown on HCC cell growth, whereas was completely reversed by silencing of CCNE2. Finally, the in vivo experiments confirmed that circ-CSPP1 knockdown regulated xenograft tumor volume and downregulated CCNE2, p-Rb, E2F1 and c-myc expression.ConclusionThese findings revealed that circ-CSPP1 contributed to HCC progression by positively regulating CCNE2 via miR-577, thus established its potential as new a prognostic and therapeutic marker for HCC patients.
