MiR-129-5p promotes docetaxel resistance in prostate cancer by down-regulating CAMK2N1 expression.

ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the effect of miR-129-5p on docetaxel-resistant (DR) prostate cancer (PCa) cells invasion, migration and apoptosis. In our study, the expression of CAMK2N1 was assessed by qRT-PCR in PCa patient tissues and cell lines including PC-3 and PC-3-DR. Cells transfected with miR-129-5p mimics, inhibitor, CAMK2N1 or negative controls (NC) were used to interrogate their effects on DR cell invasions, migrations and apoptosis during docetaxel (DTX) treatments. The apoptosis rate of the PCa cells was validated by flow cytometry. Relationships between miR-129-5p and CAMK2N1 levels were identified by qRT-PCR and dual-luciferase reporter assay. CAMK2N1 was found to be down-expressed in DR PCa tissue sample, and low levels of CAMK2N1 were correlated with high docetaxel resistance and clinical prediction of poor survival. CAMK2N1 levels were decreased in DR PCa cells treated with DXT. We further explored that up-regulation of miR-129-5p could promote DR PCa cells viability, invasion and migration but demote apoptosis. Involved molecular mechanism studies revealed that miR-129-5p reduced downstream CAMK2N1 expression to further impact on chemoresistance to docetaxel of PCa cells, indicating its vital role in PCa docetaxel resistance. Our findings revealed that miR-129-5p contributed to the resistance of PC-3-DR cells to docetaxel through suppressing CAMK2N1 expression, and thus targeting miR-129-5p may provide a novel therapeutic approach in sensitizing PCa to future docetaxel treatment.

Project description:Our present work was aimed to study on the regulatory role of MALAT1/miR-145-5p/AKAP12 axis on docetaxel (DTX) sensitivity of prostate cancer (PCa) cells. The microarray data (GSE33455) to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in DTX-resistant PCa cell lines (DU-145-DTX and PC-3-DTX) was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. QRT-PCR analysis was performed to measure MALAT1 expression in DTX-sensitive and DTX-resistant tissues/cells. The human DTX-resistant cell lines DU145-PTX and PC3-DTX were established as in vitro cell models, and the expression of MALAT1, miR-145-5p and AKAP12 was manipulated in DTX-sensitive and DTX-resistant cells. Cell viability was examined using MTT assay and colony formation methods. Cell apoptosis was assessed by TUNEL staining. Cell migration and invasion was determined by scratch test (wound healing) and Transwell assay, respectively. Dual-luciferase assay was applied to analyse the target relationship between lncRNA MALAT1 and miR-145-5p, as well as between miR-145-5p and AKAP12. Tumour xenograft study was undertaken to confirm the correlation of MALAT1/miR-145-5p/AKAP12 axis and DTX sensitivity of PCa cells in vivo. In this study, we firstly notified that the MALAT1 expression levels were up-regulated in clinical DTX-resistant PCa samples. Overexpressed MALAT1 promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion but decreased cell apoptosis rate of PCa cells in spite of DTX treatment. We identified miR-145-5p as a target of MALAT1. MiR-145-5p overexpression in PC3-DTX led to inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion as well as reduced chemoresistance to DTX, which was attenuated by MALAT1. Moreover, we determined that AKAP12 was a target of miR-145-5p, which significantly induced chemoresistance of PCa cells to DTX. Besides, it was proved that MALAT1 promoted tumour cell proliferation and enhanced DTX-chemoresistance in vivo. There was an lncRNA MALAT1/miR-145-5p/AKAP12 axis involved in DTX resistance of PCa cells and provided a new thought for PCa therapy.

Project description:Osteoporosis is a frequently occurring bone disease in middle-aged and aged men and women. However, current therapies on this disease are still not ideal. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-protein-coding RNA with a length of 18-25 nucleotides. miRNAs have been identified as important regulators for development, metabolism, carcinogenesis, and bone formation. miR-129-5p has been reported as a regulator of cancer and neuroscience, whereas studies about its function on bone formation is still limited. In this study, we investigated the function and mechanism of miR-129-5p on osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. We have assessed the expression of miRNAs in bone mesenchymal stem cells from aging and menopause osteoporosis C57BL6 mice. The expression of miR-129-5p was altered in all osteoporosis models. Besides, the expression of miR-129-5p was negatively correlated with osteoblastic differentiation markers in the femur tissues of C57BL/6 mice of different ages. We further demonstrated that overexpression of miR-129-5p inhibited osteoblast differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cell line, as well as bone formation of C57BL/6 mice. On the other hand, down-regulation of miR-129-5p enhanced osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. We also found that miR-129-5p inhibited Wnt/β-catenin pathway in osteoblast. The target gene of miR-129-5p has been forecasted and proved as Tcf4. We further found that plasmid containing Tcf4-3' UTR sequence enhanced osteoblast differentiation, as well as Wnt/β-catenin pathway in MC3T3-E1 cells. To further investigate the rescue effect of miR-129-5p inhibitor, we manufactured bioengineered novel recombinant miR-129-5p inhibitor through Escherichia coli system and then tested its function. The results showed that the novel recombinant miR-129-5p inhibitor promoted osteoblast differentiation and greatly ameliorated menopause osteoporosis in C57BL6 mice. In conclusion, we have discovered miR-129-5p as an inhibitor of bone formation. miR-129-5p inhibited downstream transcription factors of Wnt/β-catenin pathway through targeting Tcf4. Moreover, novel recombinant miR-129-5p inhibitor showed rescue effect on osteoporosis. This study has revealed a new mechanism of osteogenic differentiation and provided novel therapeutic strategies for treatment of skeletal disorders.
