SP1-Induced Upregulation of lncRNA LINC00514 Promotes Tumor Proliferation and Metastasis in Osteosarcoma by Regulating miR-708.

ABSTRACT: Background:Growing studies have suggested the dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in several tumors, including osteosarcoma (OS). However, limited studies report metastasis-associated lncRNAs in OS. Our present study aimed to explore the roles of lncRNA LINC00514 (LINC00514) in OS. Materials and Methods:The LINC00514 expression was measured using qPCR assays in OS tissues and cell lines. The clinical significance of LINC00514 expression in OS patients was analyzed using chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier assays and multivariate analysis. The possible effects of LINC00514 in tumor cellular progression were determined using a series of functional assays. The mechanisms of LINC00514 action were explored through bioinformatics, luciferase reporter assays and RT-PCR assays. The mechanisms involved the upregulation of LINC00514 expression in OS were determined using ?luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays. Results:We showed that LINC00514 expressions were distinctly upregulated in both OS tissues and cell lines, especially in advanced cases. High levels of LINC0051 were positively correlated with advanced tumor stages, distant metastasis, and reduced survival of patients with OS. Functional experiments indicated that silencing of LINC00514 suppressed the ability of cell growth, colony formation and metastasis, whereas promoted cell apoptosis in vitro. Mechanistic investigation revealed that LINC00514 could directly bind to miR-708 and effectively serve as a ceRNA for miR-708. In addition, LINC00514 was upregulated by the transcription factor SP1. Conclusion:Our findings revealed SP1-induced upregulation of LINC00514 as an oncogene in OS through competitively binding to miR-708, suggesting that there are potential diagnostic and treatment values of LINC00514 in OS.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is a rare type of tumor and mostly occurs in children and adolescents. Approximately 10‑25% of patients with OS have lung metastases, and lung damage caused by lung metastasis is the main cause of mortality. Therefore, studying the growth and metastasis of OS is key in reducing OS mortality and improving prognosis. The expression of long non‑coding RNA (lncRNA) cancer susceptibility 15 (CASC15) in OS patients or OS cell lines were quantified by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR). The expression of vimentin, E‑cadherin, N‑cadherin, and cyclin D were detected by RT‑qPCR and western blotting. Mice were injected with OS cell lines via the tail vein to observe tumor formation in the lung. CCK‑8 and EdU assays were utilized to evaluate cell proliferation. Both Ttranswell assay and cell scratch test detected cell migration. The results revealed that lncRNA‑CASC15 was highly expressed in clinical samples and OS cells. In vitro verification experiments revealed that CASC15 promoted the growth of OS cells. Rescue experiments demonstrated that CASC15 affected the cell cycle by activating the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway, thereby promoting cell proliferation. Furthermore, the transfection dose test indicated that lentiviruses expressing various doses of CASC15‑overexpression (oe‑CASC15) altered the proliferation and migration status of OS cells. CASC15 promoted OS cell metastasis both in vivo and in vitro. The overexpression of CASC15 revealed that the occurrence of metastasis was also related to the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway. The western blotting results revealed that CASC15 could lead to β‑catenin entering the nucleus via the Wnt pathway to promote the epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) of OS cells. To sum up, CASC15 promoted the proliferation of OS cells in vitro and the growth of OS xenograft tumors in vivo. Moreover, CASC15 promoted the entry of β‑catenin into the nucleus, thus activating the Wnt pathway and subsequently promoting the EMT of OS cells.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous non-coding RNAs, which are associated with various biological processes, including microRNA (miRNA) interaction, protein binding and regulatory splicing. circRNA_0005529 (circ_0005529) is derived from vacuolar protein sorting 33 homologue B (VPS33B), and its biological role in gastric cancer (GC) has not been examined. In this study, the expression and location of circ_0005529 and microRNA-527 (miR-527) were determined by qRT-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Cell proliferation and cell migration were determined by MTT, EdU incorporation, colony formation, wound scratch and transwell assays. In addition, immunohistochemistry and western blotting were performed to determine the expressions of specificity protein 1 (Sp1), PCNA, c-myc, E-cadherin and N-cadherin. Western blotting and luciferase reporter assay were performed to study the interaction between circ_0005529 and miR-527 or miR-527 and Sp1. The functional effects of circ_0005529 on GC through regulating Sp1 were further evaluated using xenograft and metastatic mouse models in vivo.ResultsOur results showed that circ_0005529 was upregulated in GC tissues and cells, and had promoting effects on cell proliferation and cell migration. Mechanism analysis suggested that circ_0005529 could bind to microRNA-527 (miR-527) and reduce its expression. The interaction between miR-527 and Sp1 in GC was systematically studied. In addition, the results indicated that Sp1 upregulation could rescue the effects on cell proliferation and migration caused by circ_0005529. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of circ_0005529 downregulation on GC growth and metastasis were evaluated in mouse models. These findings suggested that the axis of circ_0005529/miR-527/Sp1 may serve as a promising treatment target for GC diagnosis and treatment.ConclusionsThese findings suggested that the signal axis of circ_0005529/miR-527/Sp1 may has the potential to be explored as a novel therapeutic target for GC diagnosis and treatment. Mechanism diagram: During GC development, overexpressed circ_0005529 sponged miR-527 and then upregulated the expression of Sp1. Subsequently, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell proliferation and cell migration were promoted, which ultimately facilitated the tumor metastasis.
