Dysregulation of SPRR3/miR-876-3p Axis Contributes to Tumorigenesis in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background:SPRR3, also known as esophagin, has been shown to be involved in the initiation and progression of numerous types of tumor. However, the biological function of SPRR3 that contributes to non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) growth and migration is largely unknown. Methods:The expression of SPRR3 and its association with EZH2 and miR-876-3p in NSCLC cells were determined by real-time PCR. Protein levels were measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot. Cell functions were studied by CCK-8, transwell assay, flow cytometry and dual-luciferase reporter assay. The effect of SPRR3 on tumor growth in vivo was evaluated in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. Results:SPRR3 was up-regulated in most NSCLC cell lines and clinical tissues. Also, the correlation between SPRR3 expression and clinical features was significant. Functional studies confirmed that SPRR3 modulates cell proliferation, invasion and cell apoptosis in NSCLC via regulating EZH2, which is a well-known oncogene in NSCLC. Furthermore, SPRR3 was found to be a direct target of miR-876-3p that also plays a suppressor role in NSCLC. Conclusion:These findings indicated that miR-876-3p/SPRR3/EZH2 signaling cascade exerts important roles in the regulation of NSCLC, suggesting that this pathway can serve as a potential therapeutic target in NSCLC.

Project description:Purpose:Lung cancer is one of the most prevailing human cancers worldwide. Emerging evidence implies that long non-coding RNA nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase-antisense RNA1 (NNT-AS1) is implicated in the tumorigenesis of lung cancer. Herein, we aimed to expose the impact of NNT-AS1 on the drug resistance of lung cancer. Methods:Levels of NNT-AS1, microRNA (miR)-1236-3p and autophagy-related gene 7 (ATG7) were evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was implemented to detect cell proliferation and the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of cisplatin (DDP) in vitro. Moreover, flow cytometry was performed to assess cell apoptosis. Cell migration and invasion were examined utilizing transwell assay in lung cancer cells. Besides, levels of ATG7 and cell behavior-related proteins were determined via Western blot. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was administrated to identify the interaction between miR-1236-3p and NNT-AS1 or ATG7. The biological role of NNT-AS1 in DDP ?resistance of lung cancer was examined by xenograft tumor model in vivo. Results:NNT-AS1 and ATG7 were upregulated, whereas miR-1236-3p was curbed in lung cancer tissues and in with or without DDP-resistant cell lines. NNT-AS1 detection significantly constrained cell growth, metastasis, and the IC50 of DDP in A549/DDP and H522/DDP cells. Interestingly, the influence of miR-1236-3p mimic on DDP resistance was overturned via NNT-AS1 upregulation in vitro. Reintroduction of miR-1236-3p inhibitor relieved the effect of ATG7 silencing on DDP sensitivity in A549/DDP and H522/DDP cells. Importantly, NNT-AS1 was a sponge of miR-1236-3p to separate ATG7. Besides, NNT-AS1 silencing enhanced DDP sensitivity of lung cancer in vivo. Conclusion:NNT-AS1/miR-1236-3p/ATG7 axis regulated DDP resistance in lung cancer cells and might supply a probable target and prognostic marker in lung cancer treatment.
