LncRNA FTX Contributes to the Progression of Colorectal Cancer Through Regulating miR-192-5p/EIF5A2 Axis.

ABSTRACT: Background:Long non-coding RAN five prime to Xist (LncRNA FTX) has been revealed to be a cancer-related lncRNA and implicated in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). Besides, miR-192-5p (miR-192) or eukaryotic initiation factor 5A2 (EIF5A2) also was identified to link with the tumorigenesis of CRC. Here, we further explored the function of FTX and the regulatory relationship among FTX, miR-192 and EIF5A2 in CRC progression. Methods:Levels of FTX, miR-192-5p and EIF5A2 were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or Western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were analyzed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, flow cytometry or transwell assay, respectively. The interaction between miR-192-5p and FTX or EIF5A2 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter and pull-down assay. Murine xenograft model was established using LoVo cells transfected with sh-FTX. Results:FTX was up-regulated in CRC tissues and cell lines, knockdown of FTX inhibited CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro as well as suppressed CRC tumor growth in vivo. FTX was confirmed to directly bind to miR-192-5p and negatively regulated miR-192-5p expression in CRC cells. Besides that overexpressed FTX positively modulated EIF5A2, a direct target of miR-192-5p, via miR-192-5p in CRC cells. Importantly, the inhibitory activities on CRC progression mediated by FTX deletion were reversed miR-192-5p down-regulation or EIF5A2 up-regulation. Conclusion:LncRNA FTX functioned as an oncogene to contribute to CRC progression by regulating miR-192-5p/EIF5A2 axis, providing a novel insight into the pathogenesis of CRC and a promising therapeutic target for CRC treatment.

Project description:BackgroundSome recent studies have reported the role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in modulating the tumorigenesis of human malignancies. Nevertheless, the expression characteristics, biological functions, and regulatory mechanism of circ_0000189 in glioma are unclear.MethodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was utilized to detect the expression levels of circ_0000189, miR-192-5p, and ZEB2 mRNA in glioma tissues and cells. The association between the expression of circ_0000189 and the clinicopathological indicators and the features of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images of glioma patients were analyzed. Western blot was utilized to evaluate ZEB2 expression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT-)-related proteins (E-cadherin, N-cadherin, as well as Vimentin) in glioma cells. Cell proliferation was assessed employing cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and EdU experiments. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptotic rate of the cells. Cell migration and invasion were accessed employing Transwell assay. Moreover, dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay were employed to investigate the targeting relationship between miR-192-5p and circ_0000189, miR-192-5p, and ZEB2. Subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiment and lung metastasis experiment in nude mice were conducted to verify the regulatory function of circ_0000189 on the proliferation and metastasis of glioma cells in vivo.Resultscirc_0000189 was markedly overexpressed in glioma tissues and cell lines. Its high expression was associated with poor clinical pathological indicators and adverse MRI signs. Gain-of-function experiments and loss-of-function experiments confirmed that circ_0000189 overexpression facilitated the proliferation and migration, as well as invasion of glioma cells, and suppressed apoptosis, and facilitated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Compared to the control group, knocking down circ_0000189 suppressed the malignant phenotypes of glioma cells both in vivo and in vitro. Working as a competitive endogenous RNA, circ_0000189 directly targeted miR-192-5p, and repressed its expression, and circ_0000189 positively modulated ZEB2 expression indirectly via repressing miR-192-5p.Conclusioncirc_0000189 facilitates the progression of glioma by modulating miR-192-5p/ZEB2 axis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as a novel category of non-coding RNA, which exhibit a pivotal effect on regulating gene expression and biological functions, yet how circRNAs function in osteosarcoma (OSA) still demands further investigation. This study aimed at probing into the function of hsa_circ_0000282 in OSA. METHODS:The expressions of circ_0000282 and miR-192 in OSA tissues and cell lines were examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and the correlation between the expression level of circ_0000282 and clinicopathological features of OSA patients was analyzed. The expressions of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) in OSA cells were assayed by Western blot. The proliferation and apoptosis of OSA cells were examined by CCK-8, BrdU and flow cytometry, respectively. Bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and RIP experiments were employed to predict and validate the targeting relationships between circ_0000282 and miR-192, and between miR-192 and XIAP, respectively. RESULTS:Circ_0000282 was highly expressed in OSA tissues and cell lines, which represented positive correlation with Enneking stage of OSA patients and negative correlation with tumor differentiation degree. In vitro experiments confirmed that overexpression of circ_0000282 markedly facilitated OSA cell proliferation and repressed cancer cell apoptosis in comparison to control group. Besides, knockdown of circ_0000282 repressed OSA cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Additionally, the binding relationships between circ_0000282 and miR-192, and between miR-192 and XIAP were validated. Circ_0000282 indirectly up-regulated XIAP expression by adsorbing miR-192, thereby playing a role in promoting cancer in OSA. CONCLUSION:Circ_0000282 was a novel oncogenic circRNA in OSA. Circ_0000282/miR-192/XIAP axis regulated OSA cell proliferation apoptosis with competitive endogenous RNA mechanism.
