MiR-106b-5p contributes to the lung metastasis of breast cancer via targeting CNN1 and regulating Rho/ROCK1 pathway.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:Breast cancer has been the second most prevalent and fatal malignancy due to its frequent metastasis to other organs. We aim to study the effects of a key miRNA-mRNA signaling in breast cancer. RESULTS:CNN1 was identified as the key gene in breast cancer by the bioinformatics analysis, and the downregulation of CNN1 in breast cancer tissues and cell lines was observed. Upregulating CNN1 inhibited cell survival, migration, invasion, and adhesion, but enhanced cell apoptosis. miR-106b-5p not only bound to CNN1 mRNA 3'UTR, but also promoted lung metastasis in vivo. Besides, the miR-106b-5p mimic enhanced breast cancer canceration by targeting CNN1 and activating Rho/ROCK1 signaling pathway. CONCLUSION:Overall, our results proved that miR-106b-5p promoted the metastasis of breast cancer by suppressing CNN1 and activating Rho/ROCK1 pathway. METHODS:Bioinformatics analysis was performed to select the key gene in breast cancer. The overexpression and knockdown of Calponin 1 (CNN1) in breast cancer cell lines were performed to conduct cell viability, migrating, invasion, proliferation, adhesion, and apoptosis experiments. To identify the role of miR-106b-5p and Rho/ROCK1 in CNN1-induced breast cancer, a dual-luciferase assay, tumor lung metastasis assay, transcript half-life assay, and Rho/ROCK1 inhibition assay were performed.

miR-106b-5p promotes aggressive progression of hepatocellular carcinoma via targeting RUNX3.

Project description:Background and objectivesThe roles of microRNA(miR)-106b-5p in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain unclear. We aimed here to investigate the clinical significance of miR-106b-5p expression in HCC and its underlying mechanisms.MethodsExpression levels of miR-106b-5p in 108 HCC clinical samples by quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR. Associations of miR-106b-5p expression with various clinicopathological features and patients' prognosis were evaluated by Chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier, and Cox proportional regression analyses, respectively. The target gene of miR-106b-5p and their functions in HCC cells were investigated by luciferase reporter, CCK-8, and Transwell Matrigel invasion assays.ResultsmiR-106b-5p expression was markedly higher in HCC tissues than in noncancerous adjacent liver tissues (P < .001). miR-106b-5p upregulation was significantly associated with advanced TNM stage (P = .02), short recurrence-free (P = .005), and overall (P = .001) survivals. Importantly, miR-106b-5p expression was an independent predictor of poor prognosis (P < .05). RUNX3 was identified as a direct target gene of miR-106b-5p in HCC cells. Functionally, miR-106b-5p upregulation promoted the viability and invasion of HCC cells, while enforced RUNX3 expression reversed the oncogenic effects of miR-106b-5p overexpression.ConclusionsmiR-106b-5p may serve as a potent prognostic marker for tumor recurrence and survival of HCC patients. miR-106b-5p may exert an oncogenic role in HCC via regulating its target gene RUNX3.

Knockdown of PVT1 Suppresses Colorectal Cancer Progression by Regulating MiR-106b-5p/FJX1 Axis

Project description:Purpose Long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) has been revealed to involve in the progression of CRC. However, the precise mechanisms of PVT1 in action remain unclear. Methods The expression of PVT1, microRNA-106b-5p (miR-106b-5p) and four jointed box 1 (FJX1) was measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or Western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation was investigated by 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo (?z-y1)-3,5-di-phenytetrazoliumromide assay. Transwell assay was used to determine cell migration and invasion. The correlation between miR-106b-5p and PVT1 or FJX1 was confirmed using luciferase reporter assay. The effects of PVT1 in vivo were assessed using mice xenograft model. Results PVT1 was up-regulated in CRC tissues and cell lines, especially in CRC tissues with high-grade, and highly expressed PVT1 predicted worse prognosis. Functional experiments demonstrated that PVT1 deletion inhibited CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. MiR-106b-5p was confirmed to be a target of PVT1, and inhibition of miR-106b-5p reversed the inhibitory effects of PVT1 knockdown on CRC cell malignant phenotypes. In addition, we found miR-106b-5p directly targeted FJX1, and miR-106b-5p-mediated inhibition on CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion was attenuated by FJX1 up-regulation. Importantly, it was also proved that PVT1 could indirectly regulate FJX1 expression via targeting miR-106b-5p. Conclusion Knockdown of PVT1 impaired cell proliferation, migration and invasion in CRCs via regulating miR-106b-5p/FJX1 axis, which provided a novel insight into the development of therapeutic strategies for CRC patients.

Antagonist targeting miR‑106b‑5p attenuates acute renal injury by regulating renal function, apoptosis and autophagy via the upregulation of TCF4.

Project description:Acute renal injury (ARI) is a life‑threatening condition and a main contributor to end‑stage renal disease, which is mainly caused by ischemia‑reperfusion (I/R). miR‑106b‑5p is a kidney function‑related miRNA; however, whether miR‑106b‑5p regulates the progression of ARI remains unclear. The present study thus aimed to examine the effects of miR‑106b‑5p antagonist on the regulation of ARI progression. It was found that miR‑106b‑5p expression was upregulated in the renal tissue of rats with I/R‑induced ARI and in NRK‑52E rat renal proximal tubular epithelial cells subjected to hypoxia‑reoxygenation (H/R). In vitro, H/R induction suppressed the proliferation, and promoted the apoptosis and autophagy of NRK‑52E cells, whereas miR‑106b‑5p antagonist (inhibition of miR‑106b‑5p) promoted the proliferation, and attenuated the apoptosis and autophagy of NRK‑52E cells under the H/R condition. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay validated that transcription factor 4 (TCF4) was a target of miR‑106b‑5p. It was further found that TCF4 overexpression promoted the proliferation, and inhibited the apoptosis and autophagy of NRK‑52E cells subjected to H/R. Moreover, the effects of miR‑106b‑5p antagonist on NRK‑52E cell proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy were mediated through the regulation of TCF4. In vivo, miR‑106b‑5p antagonist reduced the severity of renal injury, decreased cell proliferation in renal tissues and lowered the serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in the blood samples from rats with I/R‑induced ARI. On the whole, the findings presented herein demonstrate that miR‑106b‑5p antagonist attenuates ARI by promoting the proliferation, and suppressing the apoptosis and autophagy of renal cells via upregulating TCF4.

Epigenetic silencing of miR-145-5p contributes to brain metastasis.

Project description:Brain metastasis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality of lung cancer patients. We assessed whether aberrant expression of specific microRNAs could contribute to brain metastasis. Comparison of primary lung tumors and their matched metastatic brain disseminations identified shared patterns of several microRNAs, including common down-regulation of miR-145-5p. Down-regulation was attributed to methylation of miR-145's promoter and affiliated elevation of several protein targets, such as EGFR, OCT-4, MUC-1, c-MYC and, interestingly, tumor protein D52 (TPD52). In line with these observations, restored expression of miR-145-5p and selective depletion of individual targets markedly reduced in vitro and in vivo cancer cell migration. In aggregate, our results attribute to miR-145-5p and its direct targets pivotal roles in malignancy progression and in metastasis.

miR-196a-5p promotes metastasis of colorectal cancer via targeting I?B?.

Project description:BACKGROUND:MicroRNA-196a-5p (miR-196a-5p) has been reported to be involved in the metastatic process of several cancers. In present work, we aimed to investigate the effects of miR-196a-5p and its potential target I?B? on migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. METHODS:CCK-8 assay, wound healing assay and cell invasion assay were performed to evaluate the cell proliferation, migration and invasion. In vivo metastasis models were used to investigate the tumor metastasis ability. Real-time PCR, immunofluorescence staining or western blot were utilized to detect the expression of miR-196a-5p, I?B?, p-I?B?, nuclear p65 and EMT markers including E-cadherin, N-cadherin and fibronectin. Dual luciferase reporter assay was carried out to determine whether there is a direct interaction between miR-196a-5p and I?B? mRNA. RESULTS:Using SW480 cell with miR-196-5p over-expressed plus SW620 and HCT116 cells with miR-196a-5p knockdown, we found that miR-196a-5p promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and facilitated liver metastasis in vivo. We also observed that miR-196a-5p knockdown or NF-?B pathway inhibition up-regulated E-cadherin while down-regulated N-cadherin and fibronectin. By contrast, miR-196a-5p over-expression promoted EMT process of CRC. Data of dual luciferase reporter assay indicated that miR-196a-5p targeted the I?B?. Moreover, miR-196a-5p down-regulated I?B? expression while up-regulated nuclear p65 expression. Additionally, over-expression of I?B? in CRC cells attenuated the effects of miR-196a-5p on cell migration, invasion and EMT. CONCLUSIONS:miR-196a-5p may play a key role in EMT, invasion and metastasis of CRC cells via targeting the I?B?.

miR-106b-5p promotes cell proliferation and cell cycle progression by directly targeting CDKN1A in osteosarcoma.

Project description:MicroRNA (miR)-106b-5p has been reported to act as both an oncogene and tumor suppressor in several tumors. The aim of the present study was to investigate the biological function of miR-106b-5p in osteosarcoma (OS). miR-106b-5p expression was observed to be significantly increased in OS tissues and cell lines. MTT assay and flow cytometry analysis determined that miR-106b-5p inhibitor transfection suppressed OS cell proliferation and induced cell cycle G0/G1 phase arrest. Furthermore, bioinformatics analysis and a luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (CDKN1A) was a potential target of miR-106b-5p. p21 protein expression was found to be significantly increased by miR-106b-5p downregulation in OS cells. Further analysis demonstrated that CDKN1A was downregulated in OS tissues and was negatively correlated with miR-106b-5p expression. Furthermore, upregulation of CDKN1A expression mimicked, whilst CDKN1A knockdown reversed the suppressive effects of miR-106b-5p inhibitor on OS cell proliferation and cell cycle progression. In summary, the present data suggested that miR-106b-5p promotes cell proliferation and cell cycle progression by directly targeting CDKN1A in OS.

LncRNA SNHG14 promotes inflammatory response induced by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury through regulating miR-136-5p /ROCK1.

Project description:Recently, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are considered as critical regulators in pathogenesis progression of cerebral ischemia. In present study, lncRNA-small nucleolar RNA host gene 14 (SNHG14) was found upregulated in middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) treated brain tissues and oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) treated PC-12 cells. Interference of SNHG14 by shRNA vector enhanced neuron survival and suppressed inflammation in response to OGD/R insult. SNHG14 positively regulated the expression of Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK1) via acting as a sponge of microRNA (miR)-136-5p. SNHG14 promoted neurological impairment and inflammatory response through elevating the expression of ROCK1 while decreasing miR-136-5p level in OGD/R induced damage. Collectively, we illustrated that SNHG14 could be a novel strategy for treatment ischemia stoke.

Downregulation of miR-486-5p contributes to tumor progression and metastasis by targeting protumorigenic ARHGAP5 in lung cancer.

Project description:We have previously shown that miR-486-5p is one of the most downregulated micro RNAs in lung cancer. The objective of the study was to investigate the role of miR-486-5p in the progression and metastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We evaluated miR-486-5p expression status on 76 frozen and 33 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues of NSCLC by quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR to determine its clinicopathologic significance. We then performed function analysis of miR-486-5p to determine its potential roles on cancer cell migration and invasion in vitro and metastasis in vivo. We also investigated the target genes of miR-486-5p in lung tumorigenesis. miR-486-5p expression level was significantly lower in lung tumors compared with their corresponding normal tissues (P<0.0001), and associated with stage (P=0.0001) and lymph node metastasis of NSCLC (P=0.0019). Forced expression of miR-486-5p inhibited NSCLC cell migration and invasion in vitro and metastasis in mice by inhibiting cell proliferation. Furthermore, ectopic expression of miR-486-5p in cancer cells reduced ARHGAP5 expression level, whereas miR-486-5p silencing increased its expression. Luciferase assay demonstrated that miR-486-5p could directly bind to the 3'-untranslated region of ARHGAP5. The expression level of miR-486-5p was inversely correlated with that of ARHGAP5 in lung tumor tissues (P=0.0156). Reduced expression of ARHGAP5 considerably inhibited lung cancer cell migration and invasion, resembling that of miR-486-5p overexpression. miR-486-5p may act as a tumor-suppressor contributing to the progression and metastasis of NSCLC by targeting ARHGAP5. miR-486-5p would provide potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets for the disease.

miR-335-5P contributes to human osteoarthritis by targeting HBP1

Project description:MicroRNA (miR)-335-5P has the ability to regulate chondrogenic differentiation and promote chondrogenesis in mouse mesenchymal stem cells. It is also abnormally elevated in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes. However, the biological function of miR-335-5P in osteoarthritis (OA) is not well understood. The present study investigated the mechanism of miR-335-5P in the pathogenesis of OA. To investigate the effect of miR-335-5P on the pathogenesis of OA in vitro, a miR-335-5P mimic and inhibitor were transfected into chondrocytes. Cell Counting kit-8 assay and flow cytometry were used to observe the effects of miR-335-5P on chondrocyte apoptosis and the expression of cartilage-specific genes, such as aggrecan, collagen II, matrix metalloproteinase 13 and collagen X, were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analysis. Moreover, the current study assessed whether HMG-box transcription factor 1 (HBP1) is a novel target of miR-335-5P with dual luciferase reporter assays. Finally, a rescue experiment was used to prove the regulation between miR-335-5P and HBP1. The results revealed that HBP1 was a novel target of miR-335-5P, and that miR-335-5P mediated the apoptosis of chondrocytes and changes in cartilage-specific genes via targeting HBP1. Overall, the present study revealed that miR-335-5P mediated the development of OA by targeting the HBP1 gene and promoting chondrocyte apoptosis. These data suggested that miR-335-5P may be used to develop novel early-stage diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for OA.
