Oxidative Stress Down-Regulates MiR-20b-5p, MiR-106a-5p and E2F1 Expression to Suppress the G1/S Transition of the Cell Cycle in Multipotent Stromal Cells.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress has been linked to senescence and tumorigenesis via modulation of the cell cycle. Using a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress-induced premature senescence (OSIPS) model previously reported by our group, this study aimed to investigate the effects of oxidative stress on microRNA (miRNA) expression in relation to the G1-to-S-phase (G1/S) transition of the cell cycle and cell proliferation. On global miRNA analysis of the OSIPS cells, twelve significantly up- or down-regulated miRNAs were identified, the target genes of which are frequently associated with cancers. Four down-regulated miR-17 family miRNAs are predicted to target key pro- and anti-proliferative proteins of the p21/cyclin D-dependent kinase (CDK)/E2F1 pathway to modulate G1/S transition. Two miR-17 miRNAs, miR-20-5p and miR-106-5p, were confirmed to be rapidly and stably down-regulated under oxidative stress. While H2O2 treatment hampered G1/S transition and suppressed DNA synthesis, miR-20b-5p/miR-106a-5p over-expression rescued cells from growth arrest in promoting G1/S transition and DNA synthesis. Direct miR-20b-5p/miR-106a-5p regulation of p21, CCND1 and E2F1 was demonstrated by an inverse expression relationship in miRNA mimic-transfected cells. However, under oxidative stress, E2F1 expression was down-regulated, consistent with hampered G1/S transition and suppressed DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. To explain the observed E2F1 down-regulation under oxidative stress, a scheme is proposed which includes miR-20b-5p/miR-106a-5p-dependent regulation, miRNA-E2F1 autoregulatory feedback and E2F1 response to repair oxidative stress-induced DNA damages. The oxidative stress-modulated expression of miR-17 miRNAs and E2F1 may be used to develop strategies to retard or reverse MSC senescence in culture, or senescence in general.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality in women worldwide. Therefore, it is of great significance to identify the biological mechanism of tumorigenesis and explore the development of breast cancer to achieve a better prognosis for individuals suffering from breast cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have become a hot topic in cancer research, but the underlying mechanism of its involvement in cancer remains unclear.MethodsThe miRNA profile between breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs, CD44+CD24-/low) and control MCF-7 breast cancer cells was obtained in a previous study. Based on biological analysis, miR-20b-5p was hypothesized to be a key factor due to the malignant behavior of BCSCs. Then, agomir-20b-5p and antagomir-20b-5p were transfected into MCF-7 and T47D breast cancer cells to detect cell migration, wound healing and proliferation, and lentivirus vectors silencing or overexpressing miR-20b-5p were transfected into T47D-CSCs to detect proliferation and apoptosis. The effect of miR-20b-5p on xenograft growth was investigated in vivo by transfection of a lentivirus-overexpression vector into T47D cells. The target genes were predicted by the online programs picTar, miRanda and TargetScan and verified by dual luciferase assay, and changes in protein expression were detected by western blot.ResultsMiR-20b-5p had the highest degree in both the miRNA-gene network and miRNA-GO network to regulate BCSCs. Overexpression of miR-20b-5p significantly promoted the migration and wound healing ability of MCF-7 cells and T47D cells compared with the control (P < 0.05). In addition, miR-20b-5p facilitated the proliferation of MCF-7 cells and T47D-CSCs (P < 0.05) and inhibited the apoptosis of T47D-CSCs (P < 0.05). Moreover, miR-20b-5p promoted xenograft growth compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Accordingly, potential targets of both CCND1 and E2F1 were predicted by bioinformatics analysis. MiR-20b-5p directly targeted both CCND1 and E2F1 in a dual luciferase assay, while antagomir-20b-5p downregulated the protein levels of CCND1 and E2F1.ConclusionsOncogenic miR-20b-5p was confirmed to promote the malignant behaviors of breast cancer cells and BCSCs. The underlying mechanism lies in that miR-20b-5p overall enhanced both CCND1 and E2F1 targets via bidirectional regulation probably involving direct downregulation and indirect upregulation.

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed solid tumor and the fifth leading cause of cancer mortality among men worldwide. The prostate specific antigen (PSA) test for PCa remains controversial. Therefore, the development of more effective non-invasive biomarkers for PCa is necessary. The present study evaluated the diagnostic value of microRNA (miR)-20b-5p in PCa. Tissue miR-20b-5p expression levels and their correlation with clinical parameters were assessed using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets, and the diagnostic value of the miR-20b-5p expression levels in PCa tissues was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to assess the relative expression levels of miR-20b-5p in PCa tissues compared with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) tissues. In addition, miR-20b-5p expression levels in PCa cell lines and non-tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells were compared. In this study, exosomes were extracted from the prostatic fluid as a source of liquid biopsy for the detection of PCa. The prostatic fluid exosomal miR-20b-5p expression levels between patients with PCa and the biopsy-negative patients were compared, and the diagnostic efficiency of prostatic fluid exosomal miR-20b-5p expression levels in PCa was compared with PSA and with the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) risk calculator. The mechanism by which miR-20b-5p may function in PCa was assessed using bioinformatic analysis and validation experiments. miR-20b-5p was expressed at a markedly higher level in PCa tissues compared with normal prostate tissues with high diagnostic efficiency (area under the curve: 0.826). The expression levels of miR-20b-5p were also significantly higher in PCa tissues compared with BPH tissues; similarly, miR-20b-5p was more highly expressed in PCa cells compared with non-tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells. Prostatic fluid exosomal miR-20b-5p expression levels in patients with PCa were significantly higher compared with confirmed to be biopsy-negative, and the diagnostic performance of miR-20b-5p was superior to PSA and ERSPC risk calculator. The results of RT-qPCR and western blotting following transfection of DU145 cells with miR-20b-5p mimics and inhibitor showed that miR-20b-5p reduced the expression of retinoblastoma-associated protein 1 (RB1). Therefore, RB1 may be a significant target gene for miR-20b-5p. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that miR-20b-5p was upregulated in PCa at the tissue and cellular levels, as well as in prostatic fluid exosomes. Therefore, miR-20b-5p may be a promising early diagnostic biomarker for PCa and an important tool to guide the decision-making of prostate biopsy.
