Downregulation of lncRNA PMS2L2 in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma predicts poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA PMS1 homolog 2 mismatch repair system component pseudogene 2 (PMS2L2) is a key player in lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory responses. Preliminary deep sequencing data revealed that PMS2L2 was downregulated in gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) tissues compared with healthy adjacent tissues and the aim of the present study was to investigate the role of PMS2L2 in GA. In the present study, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR assays were performed to analyze gene expression. Cell transfections were performed to analyze gene interactions and Transwell assays were performed to analyze cell invasion and migration. The results revealed that PMS2L2 expression was downregulated in cancer tissues obtained from patients with GA compared with healthy adjacent tissues and was not significantly affected by clinical stage. Furthermore, low levels of PMS2L2 in cancer tissues were closely associated with a low overall 5-year survival rate in patients. MicroRNA (miR)-25 was upregulated in GA tissues compared with healthy adjacent tissues and inversely associated with PMS2L2 levels. In GA cells in vitro, overexpression of PMS2L2 downregulated the expression of miR-25, while miR-25 overexpression did not significantly affect PMS2L2 expression. Furthermore, PMS2L2 overexpression inhibited the migration and invasion of GA cells. miR-25 overexpression partially rescued the decreased migration and invasion of GA cells caused by PMS2L2 overexpression. Therefore, PMS2L2 may downregulate miR-25 expression to inhibit GA.

Project description:The switching/sucrose non-fermenting (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complexes use the energy of ATP hydrolysis to remodel nucleosomes and modulate transcription, which plays an important role in tumors by regulating epigenetics. SWI/SNF Related, Matrix Associated, Actin Dependent Regulator of Chromatin, Subfamily C, Member 1 (SMARCC1) has dual roles in tumors but its role in gastric cancer remains unclear. This study was aimed to find the role of SMARCC1 in gastric cancer. SMARCC1 expression across various tumors from The Cancer Genome Atlas was analyzed using TIMER 2.0 (http://timer.comp-genomics.org/). SMARCC1 mRNA expression profiles in gastric cell lines and gastric tissues were compared with normal tissues and analyzed in the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, Oncomine, and Gene Expression Omnibus databases. SMARCC1 mRNA and protein were then examined in fresh gastric cancer tissues and compared with adjacent normal tissues using quantitative real-time PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. Associations between SMARCC1 expression and clinicopathological factors, overall survival, and disease-free survival were further evaluated using 130 gastric cancer samples harvested from patients after radical total gastrectomy or subtotal gastrectomy at the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University (Changsha, China). SMARCC1 was frequently upregulated in gastric cancer cells and tissues. SMARCC1 overexpression was significantly associated with tumor size (P=0.002), differentiation (P=0.006), depth of invasion (P=0.001), lymph node involvement (P=0.016), and TNM stage (P=0.007). Furthermore, univariate and multivariate Cox analysis revealed that high SMARCC1 expression, depth invasion, lymph node involvement, and TNM stage were independent risk factors for both overall and disease-free survival in gastric cancer patients (all P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that high SMARCC1 expression predicted poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients (P<0.01). High SMARCC1 expression contributes to poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients. SMARCC1 may be a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in gastric cancer.

Project description:Numerous studies have shown that long uncoded RNA (lncRNA) MSC-AS1 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of some types of cancer. However, its role in gastric cancer has rarely been discussed. This study aimed to clarify the association between lncRNA MSC-AS1 and gastric cancer using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We determined the expression of MSC-AS1 using the Wilcoxon rank sum test; in addition, logistic regression was applied to evaluate the association between MSC-AS1 and clinicopathological characteristics. Also, Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression were used to evaluate the relationship between MSC-AS1 and survival. A nomogram was conducted to predict the impact of MSC-AS1 on prognosis. Moreover, Gene Set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed to annotate the biological function of MSC-AS1. Quantitative analysis of immune infiltration was carried out by single-set GSEA (ssGSEA). The MSC-AS1 level was elevated in gastric cancer tissues. An increased MSC-AS1 level was significantly correlated with T stage (odds ratio [OR] = 2.55 for T3 and T4 vs. T1 and T2), histological type (OR = 5.28 for diffuse type vs. tubular type), histological grade (OR = 3.09 for grade 3 vs. grades 1 and 2), TP53 status (OR = 0.55 for mutated vs. wild type), and PIK3CA status (OR = 0.55 for mutated vs. wild type) (all p < 0.05) by univariate logistic regression. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed high MSC-AS1 expression had a poor overall survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.75; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.25-2.45; p = 0.001] and progression-free interval (HR = 1.47; 95% CI: 1.03-2.10; p = 0.034). Multivariate survival analysis revealed that MSC-AS1 expression (HR = 1.681; 95% CI: 1.057-2.673; p = 0.028) was independently correlated with overall survival. GSEA demonstrated that the P38/MAPK pathway, the VEGF pathway, the cell adhesion molecules cams, the NOD-like receptor signaling pathway were differentially enriched in the high MSC-AS1 expression phenotype. SsGSEA and Spearman correlation revealed the relationships between MSC-AS1 and macrophages, NK cells, and Tems were the strongest. Coregulatory proteins were included in the PPI network. Upregulated lncRNA MSC-AS1 might be a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.
