CREB1-induced miR-1204 promoted malignant phenotype of glioblastoma through targeting NR3C2.

ABSTRACT: Background:Glioblastoma (GBM) is a subclass of brain malignancy with unsatisfactory prognosis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that exert key function on tumorigenesis and tumor development. Purposes:The purpose of this work was to unravel the biological behavior and mechanism of miR-1204 in GBM. Methods:Expressions of miR-1204, NR3C2 and CREB1 were detected by RT-qPCR and western blot. Proliferation and apoptosis of GBM cells were detected by CCK-8, colony formation, caspase-3 activity and TUNEL assays. Molecular interplays were examined by ChIP, RIP, and luciferase reporter assays. Results:MiR-1204 level was elevated in GBM cell lines. Functionally, miR-1204 aggravated cell proliferation whereas suppressed cell apoptosis in GBM cells. Mechanistically, cAMP Responsive Element Binding Protein 1 (CREB1) bound to the promoter of miR-1204 and activated the transcription of miR-1204. Furthermore, miR-1204 targeted and inhibited Nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group C member 2 (NR3C2), a tumor suppressor gene in GBM cells. Rescue assays indicated that NR3C2 participated in the regulation of miR-1204 on the malignant phenotype of GBM cells. Conclusions:We observed for the first time that CREB1-induced miR-1204 promoted malignant phenotype of GBM through targeting NR3C2, indicating that miR-1204 acted as a novel oncogenic miRNA in GBM.

Project description:BackgroundAn increasing number of studies have shown that dysregulated miR-589-3p is associated with multiple diseases. However, the role of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the biological function and potential molecular mechanism of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.MethodsGSE159508 was downloaded from Gene Expression Omibus (GEO, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/ ). Differentially expressed miRNAs between osteogenic induction PDLSCs versus non-induction PDLSCs were obtained by R software. miR-589-3p mimic and miR-589-3p inhibitor and corresponding negative control were obtained and to identify the role of miR-589-3p in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. ALP staining and ARS were used to evaluate ALP activity and mineralization, respectively. The targeted binding relationship between miR-589-3p and ATF1 was predicted and verified by target prediction analysis and dual-luciferase assay. Furthermore, the functional mechanism based on miR-589-3p and ATF1 in osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs was further investigated through rescue experiments.ResultsAccording to the cut-off criteria with log 2 FC > 1.0 and P < 0.05, 514 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between osteogenic induction and non-induction PDLSCs, including 309 upregulated miRNAs and 205 downregulated miRNAs. Compared with control PDLSCs, miR-589-3p expression level was notably increased in PDLSCs that underwent osteogenic induction. The overexpression of miR-589-3p promoted the cell viability of PDLSCs, while the low expression of miR-589-3p had the opposite effect. The dual luciferase reporter assay verified that ATF1 was proved to be a direct target of miR-589-3p in PDLSCs. And overexpressed miR-589-3p reduced the expression of ATF1. Overexpression of miR-589-3p enhanced the osteogenic capacity of PDLSCs, as demonstrated by increases in ALP activity, matrix mineralization, and RUNX2, OCN and OSX expression. In addition, the rescue experiments confirmed that overexpressed ATF1 restored the effects of overexpressed miR-589-3p on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.ConclusionmiR-589-3p could down-regulate the expression of ATF1, thereby promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. This finding may provide a new therapeutic target for molecular therapy of periodontitis.
