Long non-coding RNA ATB promotes human non-small cell lung cancer proliferation and metastasis by suppressing miR-141-3p.

ABSTRACT: Long noncoding RNA activated by transforming growth factor-? (lncRNA-ATB) plays a critical role in progression of several cancers. In this study, lncRNA-ATB was significantly up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and high lncRNA-ATB expression indicated poor prognosis. Knockdown of lncRNA-ATB suppressed NSCLC cell growth, colony formation, migration, invasion and reversed epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In vivo study showed that silencing lncRNA-ATB inhibited tumor growth. Further mechanism studies demonstrated that lncRNA-ATB was a target of miR-141-3p. MiR-141-3p expression was negatively related to lncRNA-ATB expression in NSCLC tissues. These results suggested that inhibiting lncRNA-ATB might be an approach for NSCLC treatment.

Project description:Background & aimsMicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as a regulatory mechanism on a post-transcriptional level by repressing gene transcription/translation and play a central role in the cellular stress response. Osmotic changes occur in a variety of diseases including liver cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy. Changes in cell hydration and alterations of the cellular volume are major regulators of cell function and gene expression. In this study, the modulation of hepatic gene expression in response to hypoosmolarity was studied.MethodsmRNA analyses of normo- and hypoosmotic perfused rat livers by gene expression arrays were used to identify miRNA and their potential target genes associated with cell swelling preceding cell proliferation. Selected miR-141-3p was also investigated in isolated hepatocytes treated with miRNA mimic, cell stretching, and after partial hepatectomy. Inhibitor perfusion studies were performed to unravel signalling pathways responsible for miRNA upregulation.ResultsUsing genome-wide transcriptomic analysis, it was shown that hypoosmotic exposure led to differential gene expression in perfused rat liver. Moreover, miR-141-3p was upregulated by hypoosmolarity in perfused rat liver and in primary hepatocytes. In concert with this, miR-141-3p upregulation was prevented after Src-, Erk-, and p38-MAPK inhibition. Furthermore, luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that miR-141-3p targets cyclin dependent kinase 8 (Cdk8) mRNA. Partial hepatectomy transiently upregulated miR-141-3p levels just after the initiation of hepatocyte proliferation, whereas Cdk8 mRNA was downregulated. The mechanical stretching of rat hepatocytes resulted in miR-141-3p upregulation, whereas Cdk8 mRNA tended to decrease. Notably, the overexpression of miR-141-3p inhibited the proliferation of Huh7 cells.ConclusionsSrc-mediated upregulation of miR-141-3p was found in hepatocytes in response to hypoosmotic swelling and mechanical stretching. Because of its antiproliferative function, miR-141-3p may counter-regulate the proliferative effects triggered by these stimuli.Lay summaryIn this study, we identified microRNA 141-3p as an osmosensitive miRNA, which inhibits proliferation during liver cell swelling. Upregulation of microRNA 141-3p, controlled by Src-, Erk-, and p38-MAPK signalling, results in decreased mRNA levels of various genes involved in metabolic processes, macromolecular biosynthesis, and cell cycle progression.

Project description:Clinically, prostate cancer (PCa) exhibits a high avidity to metastasize to bone. miR-141-3p is an extensively studied miRNA in cancers and downregulation of miR-141-3p has been widely reported to be involved in the progression and metastasis of several human cancer types. However, the clinical significance and biological roles of miR-141-3p in bone metastasis of PCa are still unclear.miR-141-3p expression was examined in 89 non-bone metastatic and 52 bone metastatic PCa tissues by real-time PCR. Statistical analysis was performed to investigate the clinical correlation between miR-141-3p expression levels and clinicopathological characteristics in PCa patients. The biological roles of miR-141-3p in bone metastasis of PCa were evaluated both in vitro and a mouse intracardial model in vivo. Bioinformatics analysis, Western blot, luciferase reporter and miRNA immunoprecipitation assays were performed to explore and examine the relationship between miR-141-3p and its potential targets. Clinical correlation of miR-141-3p with its targets was examined in clinical PCa tissues.miR-141-3p expression is reduced in bone metastatic PCa tissues compared with non-bone metastatic PCa tissues. Low expression of miR-141-3p positively correlates with serum PSA levels, Gleason grade and bone metastasis status in PCa patients. Furthermore, upregulating miR-141-3p suppresses the EMT, invasion and migration of PCa cells in vitro. Conversely, silencing miR-141-3p yields an opposite effect. Importantly, upregulating miR-141-3p dramatically reduces bone metastasis of PC-3 cells in vivo. Our results further show that miR-141-3p inhibits the activation of NF-?B signaling via directly targeting tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 5(TRAF5) and 6 (TRAF6), which further suppresses invasion, migration and bone metastasis of PCa cells. The clinical negative correlation of miR-141-3p expression with TRAF5, TRAF6 and NF-?B signaling activity is demonstrated in PCa tissues.Our findings unravel a novel mechanism underlying the bone metastasis of PCa, suggesting that miR-141-3p mimics might represent a potential therapeutic avenue for the treatment of PCa bone metastasis.
