LncRNA MIR4435-2HG triggers ovarian cancer progression by regulating miR-128-3p/CKD14 axis.

ABSTRACT: Background:Accumulating studies showed that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) played vital roles in cancer progression. LncRNA MIR4435-2HG was proved to act as an oncogene in various tumors. However, the underlying function of MIR4435-2HG in ovarian cancer (OC) remains unclear. Methods:The expression levels of MIR4435-2HG, miR-128-3p and cyclin-dependent kinase 14 (CDK14) were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation and apoptosis in OC cells were detected by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometric analysis, respectively. Transwell assay was applied to evaluate cell migration and invasion. Wound healing assay was performed to monitor the migration rate. Western blot assay was performed to detect the protein levels of Bcl-2, Cleaved PARP, E-cadherin, Vimentin and CDK14 in OC cells. The binding sites between miR-128-3p and MIR4435-2HG or CDK14 were predicted by online tool starBase and their relationship was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay, RIP assay and pull-down experiment. Results:MIR4435-2HG and CDK14 were over-expressed in OC tissues and cells. Patients with high MIR4435-2HG expression had poorer overall survival (OS) than patients with low MIR4435-2HG expression. MIR4435-2HG knockdown inhibited proliferation, invasion and migration but induced apoptosis of OC cells via miR-128-3p/CDK14 axis. In conclusion, MIR4435-2HG knockdown suppressed the progression of OC cells through downregulating CDK14 expression by the promotion of miR-128-3p.

Project description:Several studies have indicated that dysregulation of long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participates in the initiation and progression of cancer. The lncRNA MIR4435‑2HG was previously reported to act as an oncogene in human cancer, including liver cancer. However, its role in the pathogenesis in liver cancer is largely unclear. The present study aimed to reveal the molecular mechanism by which MIR4435‑2HG regulates liver cancer. The expression levels of MIR4435‑2HG in liver cancer and adjacent normal tissues were analyzed using The Cancer Genome Atlas database. MIR4435‑2HG expression was validated by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) in cancer cells in vitro. The target genes of MIR4435‑2HG were predicted using bioinformatics analysis. Interactions between miR‑136‑5p, MIR4435‑2HG and B3GNT5 were detected using luciferase reporter assays, and their effects on cell viability, migration and invasion were assessed using Cell Counting Kit‑8, wound healing and Transwell assays. The effects of miR‑136‑5p and MIR4435‑2HG on B3GNT5 expression were confirmed by western blot analysis. The results revealed that MIR4435‑2HG expression was upregulated in primary liver cancer and liver cancer cell lines, and was positively associated with advanced tumor stage, metastasis and poor prognosis in patients with liver cancer. Knockdown of MIR4435‑2HG significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of liver cancer cells. Furthermore, miR‑136‑5p was determined to be a direct target of MIR4435‑2HG and suppressed MIR4435‑2HG expression by binding with the seed region of the 3'‑UTR of MIR4435‑2HG in liver cancer cells. Functional studies showed that the inhibitory effects of MIR4435‑2HG knockdown on cell proliferation, migration and invasion were significantly rescued by inhibiting miR‑136‑5p. Furthermore, the target gene, B3GNT5, of miR‑136‑5p was confirmed by bioinformatics analysis and RT‑qPCR. In addition, B3GNT5 expression was regulated by the MIR4435‑2HG/miR‑136‑5p axis. In conclusion, the present study indicated that MIR4435‑2HG facilitated the progression of liver cancer via the MIR4435‑2HG/miR‑136‑5p/B3GNT5 axis, which demonstrated that MIR4435‑2HG may be a potential biomarker for the prognosis and treatment of liver cancer.
