Upregulation of SMYD3 and SMYD3 VNTR 3/3 polymorphism increase the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: SMYD3 (SET and MYND domain-containing protein 3) is involved in histone modification, which initiates oncogenesis by activating transcription of multiple downstream genes. To investigate associations of variable numbers of tandem repeats (VNTR) variants in the SMYD3 gene promoter, SMYD3 serum levels and SMYD3 mRNA expression in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and clinical progression of related liver disease. SMYD3 VNTRs were genotyped in 756 HBV patients and 297 healthy controls. SMYD3 serum levels were measured in 293 patients and SMYD3 mRNA expression was quantified in 48 pairs of hepatocellular tumor and adjacent non-tumor liver tissues. Genotype SYMD3 VNTR 3/3 was more frequent among HCC patients than in controls (Padjusted?=?0.037). SMYD3 serum levels increased according to clinical progression of liver diseases (P?=?0.01); HCC patients had higher levels than non-HCC patients (P?=?0.04). Among patients with SMYD3 VNTR 3/3, HCC patients had higher SMYD3 levels than others (P?

Project description:Polymorphisms in pre-miRNAs may affect its expression, then having effect on its target mRNAs and be associated with cancer susceptibility. In the current study, we evaluated the association of a 3-base pair (3-bp) indel polymorphism (rs57408770) in pre-miR-3131 with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) susceptibility in a Chinese population. Logistic regression analysis showed that the insertion allele of rs57408770 was significantly associated with an increased risk for HCC occurrence in both case-control studies. To further investigated the molecular mechanism underlying the correlation between rs57408770 and the risk of HCC, overexpression of pre-miR-3131 in HCC cell line was performed. Human HCC cell lines Sk-Hep-1 was obtained from Shanghai Cell Bank of Chinese Academy of Sciences on 9 December 2013.The fragment of 366bp including the insert allele of rs57408770 in pre-miR-3131 was directly synthesized and cloned into BamHI and EcoRI sites of pEGFP-N1 yielding the wild-type vector (pEGFP-N1-miR3131-WT). The mutant-type vector (pEGFP-N1-miR3131-MT) including the delete allele of rs57408770 was generated using QuikChange Lightening Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit. The resulting constructs were verified by direct sequencing. For overexpression experiments, cells were cultured in 6-well plates at a density of 200 000 cells per well the day before transfection. 2.5Î¼g plasmids of empty vector pEGFP-N1, pEGFP-N1-miR3131-WT or pEGFP-N1-miR3131-MT were transfected into the growing cells (about 80%-90% confluent) using Lipofectamine2000. After 24 hours of the transfection, the cells were collected for subsequent experiments.And human genome-wide gene expression profile assay was used to screen the targets of miR-3131. For overexpression experiments, cells were cultured in 6-well plates at a density of 200 000 cells per well the day before transfection. 2.5Î¼g plasmids of empty vector pEGFP-N1, pEGFP-N1-miR3131-WT or pEGFP-N1-miR3131-MT were transfected into the growing cells (about 80%-90% confluent) using Lipofectamine2000 (Invitrogen). After 24 hours of the transfection, the cells were collected for subsequent experiments. There are 3 samples in this experiment.
