LncRNA Sox2OT-V7 promotes doxorubicin-induced autophagy and chemoresistance in osteosarcoma via tumor-suppressive miR-142/miR-22.

ABSTRACT: Doxorubicin (Dox) is one of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs for osteosarcoma (OS) treatment. In the present study, we attempted to investigate the mechanism by which Sox2OT-V7 dysregulation affects Dox chemoresistance to provide a novel experimental basis for developing neoadjuvant therapy. Sox2OT-V7 expression is upregulated in OS tissues, particularly in chemoresistant OS tissues, and in OS cell lines compared to controls. Dox treatment induces autophagy and Sox2OT-V7 expression in U2OS cells, and Dox-induced autophagy is partially attenuated by Sox2OT-V7 silencing. Knocking down Sox2OT-V7 or blocking autophagy in Dox-resistant U2OS/Dox cells resensitizes the cells to Dox treatment in vitro. Moreover, Sox2OT-V7 directly targets miR-142/miR-22 to inhibit their expression, and the effect of Sox2OT-V7 silencing on U2OS cell autophagy and U2OS/Dox cell sensitivity to Dox can be reversed by miR-142/miR-22 inhibition. Sox2OT-V7 silencing enhances the suppressive effects of Dox on U2OS/Dox cell-derived tumor growth in vivo, while miR-22 inhibition or miR-142 inhibition reverses the effects of Sox2OT-V7 silencing on Dox-induced suppression on tumor growth. Finally, miR-142 directly targets ULK1, ATG4A, and ATG5, while miR-22 directly targets ULK1 to inhibit the expression of the target gene; The Sox2OT-V7/miR-142/miR-22 axis modulates autophagy in OS cells by regulating ULK1, ATG4A, and ATG5.

Project description:Osteosarcoma is the most common type of pediatric bone tumor. Despite great advances in chemotherapy during the past decades, the survival rates of osteosarcoma patients remain unsatisfactory. Drug resistance is one of the main reasons, leading to treatment failure and poor prognosis. Previous reports correlated expression of cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44) with drug resistance and poor survival of osteosarcoma patients, however the underlying mechanisms are poorly defined. Here, we investigated the role of CD44 in the regulation of drug chemoresistance, using osteosarcoma cells isolated from mice carrying a mutation of the tumor suppressor neurofibromatosis type 2 (Nf2) gene. CD44 expression was knocked-down in the cells using CRISPR/Cas9 approach. Subsequently, CD44 isoforms and mutants were re-introduced to investigate CD44-dependent processes. Sensitivity to doxorubicin was analyzed in the osteosarcoma cells with modified CD44 expression by immunoblot, colony formation- and WST-1 assay. To dissect the molecular alterations induced by deletion of Cd44, RNA sequencing was performed on Cd44-positive and Cd44-negative primary osteosarcoma tissues isolated from Nf2-mutant mice. Subsequently, expression of candidate genes was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). Our results indicate that CD44 increases the resistance of osteosarcoma cells to doxorubicin by up-regulating the levels of multidrug resistance (MDR) 1 protein expression, and suggest the role of proteolytically released CD44 intracellular domain, and hyaluronan interactions in this process. Moreover, high throughput sequencing analysis identified differential regulation of several apoptosis-related genes in Cd44-positive and -negative primary osteosarcomas, including p53 apoptosis effector related to PMP-22 (Perp). Deletion of Cd44 in osteosarcoma cells led to doxorubicin-dependent p53 activation and a profound increase in Perp mRNA expression. Overall, our results suggest that CD44 might be an important regulator of drug resistance and suggest that targeting CD44 can sensitize osteosarcoma to standard chemotherapy.
