AR-induced long non-coding RNA LINC01503 facilitates proliferation and metastasis via the SFPQ-FOSL1 axis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Increasing evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in the tumorigenesis and progression of cancers. However, the functions and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNAs in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) are still largely unknown. Our previous lncRNA expression profiles identified that LINC01503 was overexpressed in NPC. Here, we verified that LINC01503 was highly expressed in NPC and correlated with poor prognosis. LINC01503 promoted NPC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and facilitated tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, LINC01503 recruited splicing factor proline-and glutamine-rich (SFPQ) to activate Fos like 1 (FOSL1) transcription, and ectopic expression of FOSL1 reversed the suppressive effect of LINC01503 knockdown on NPC progression. Moreover, androgen receptor (AR)-mediated transcription activation was responsible for the overexpression of LINC01503, and AR ligand-dependent cell growth, migration, and invasion in NPC cells. Taken together, our findings reveal that AR-induced LINC01503 can promote NPC progression through the SFPQ-FOSL1 axis, which represents a novel prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for NPC patients.

Long non-coding RNA SPRY4-IT1 promotes proliferation and metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNA SPRY4 intronic transcript 1 (Lnc RNA SPRY4-IT1) was aberrant-expressed in various kinds of cancer. Increasing evidence demonstrated that lnc RNAs involved in tumorigenesis and metastasis. In this study, we aimed to explore the biological role of SPRY4-IT1 on the phenotype of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in vitro and in vivo.MethodsThe expression level of SPRY4-IT1 in NPC cell lines were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and colony formation assay were used to detect cell proliferation. Wound-healing assay, transwell assay and animal experiment were performed to evaluate the ability of cell migration and metastasis. Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry. Western blotting and immunofluorescence were employed to identify protein expression.ResultsSPRY4-IT1 was significantly up-regulated in several NPC cell lines (6-10B, CNE-2, and HONE-1) compared with human immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cell (NP69). Silencing of SPRY4-IT1 inhibited proliferation, migration, and metastasis, and induced significant G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis. Western blotting showed that the expression levels of cell cycle-related proteins (cyclin B1, cdc2 and p-cdc2) were down-regulated and apoptosis-associated proteins (PARP, cleaved PARP and cleaved caspase-3) were up-regulated after knockdown of SPRY4-IT1. The expression level of E-cadherin was increased and the expression of Vimentin, Snail and Twist1 were decreased after the SPRY4-IT1 knockdown.ConclusionlncRNA SPRY4-IT1 played a significant role in NPC proliferation, migration and metastasis, suggesting that SPRY4-IT1 might be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of NPC.

Long Non-coding RNA MIR4435-2HG Promotes Colorectal Cancer Proliferation and Metastasis Through miR-206/YAP1 Axis.

Project description:Objective: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical to colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. In the current study, the objective was the exploration of the role played by lncRNA MIR4435-2HG in CRC proliferation and metastasis. Methods: lncRNA MIR4435-2HG expression and its association with CRC were analyzed using database and clinical specimens. The influences exerted by MIR4435-2HG on cell proliferating process, invading process, and migrating process of CRC were identified after MIR4435-2HG knockdown. The influences exerted by MIR4435-2HG on tumor growth and metastasis were assessed in vivo. The underlying mechanistic associations between MIR4435-2HG, microRNA miR-206, and the transcription factor Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) were assessed using bioinformatics and a luciferase reporter gene assay. Results: MIR4435-2HG was highly expressed in CRC tissue in contrast with that in regular tissues and displayed relations to poor prognosis. MIR4435-2HG knockdown could suppress CRC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Moreover, MIR4435-2HG knockdown inhibited CRC growth and liver metastasis in vitro. We found MIR4435-2HG knockdown reduced YAP1, CTGF, AREG, vimentin, Snail, Slug, and Twist expression but enhanced E-cadherin expression. Functionally, MIR4435-2HG acted as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to upregulate YAP1 by sponging miR-206. Conclusions: MIR4435-2HG promoted CRC growth and metastasis through miR-206/YAP1 axis and is likely to play prognostic marker roles and be therapeutically targeted in CRC.

Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 promotes tumour growth and metastasis in colorectal cancer through binding to SFPQ and releasing oncogene PTBP2 from SFPQ/PTBP2 complex.

Project description:BackgroundMetastasis associated with lung adenocarcinoma transcript-1 (MALAT1) is a functional long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), which is highly expressed in several tumours, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Its biological function and mechanism in the prognosis of human CRC is still largely under investigation.MethodsThis study aimed to investigate the new effect mechanism of MALAT1 on the proliferation and migration of CRC cells in vitro and in vivo, and detect the expression of MALAT1, SFPQ (also known as PSF (PTB-associated splicing factor)), and PTBP2 (also known as PTB (polypyrimidine-tract-binding protein)) in CRC tumour tissues, followed by correlated analysis with clinicopathological parameters.ResultsWe found that overexpression of MALAT1 could promote cell proliferation and migration in vitro, and promote tumour growth and metastasis in nude mice. The underlying mechanism was associated with tumour suppressor gene SFPQ and proto-oncogene PTBP2. In CRC, MALAT1 could bind to SFPQ, thus releasing PTBP2 from the SFPQ/PTBP2 complex. In turn, the increased SFPQ-detached PTBP2 promoted cell proliferation and migration. SFPQ critically mediated the regulatory effects of MALAT1. Moreover, in CRC tissues, MALAT1 and PTBP2 were overexpressed, both of which were associated closely with the invasion and metastasis of CRC. However, the SFPQ showed unchanged expression either in CRC tissues or adjacent normal tissues.ConclusionsOur findings implied that MALAT1 might be a potential predictor for tumour metastasis and prognosis. Furthermore, the interaction between MALAT1 and SFPQ could be a novel therapeutic target for CRC.

Long Non-Coding RNA LINC01569 Promotes Proliferation and Metastasis in Colorectal Cancer by miR-381-3p/RAP2A Axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) display regulatory function flexibly in tumor onset and developments. Our study aimed to delve into the roles of lncRNA LINC01569 (LINC01569) in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression to study the potential mechanisms.MethodsThe genetic expression profiles of miR-381-3p and LINC01569 were measured by RT-PCR. The subcellular localization of LINC01569 in CRC cells was identified using subcellular fractionation location. Loss-of-function assays were performed to explore the potential effects of LINC01569 on CRC progression. Dual-luciferase reporter analysis was employed to verify the binding connections among LINC01569, miR-381-3p, and RAP2A.ResultsLINC01569 expression was distinctly increased in CRC. Curiously, if LINC01569 is removed, CRC cells will not migrate, proliferate, and invade remarkably. Molecular mechanism exploration uncovered that LINC01569 acted as a ceRNA competing with RAP2A to bind with miR-381-3p. Furthermore, rescue experiments corroborated the fact that miR-381-3p suppression reversed the inhibitory actions of LINC01569 knockdown on the expression of RAP2A and CRC progression.ConclusionOverall, our findings indicate that LINC01569 plays a key role in CRC development by means of aiming at the miR-381-3p/RAP2A axis and can be equivalent to an underlying medicinal target to save CRC patients.

P68 RNA Helicase facilitates Breast Cancer progression by promoting Proliferation and Migration via PDGFR-β/AR axis.

Project description:Aberrant expression of P68 RNA helicase (p68), a prototypical member of the DEAD box family of RNA helicases, contributes to tumor development and progression. P68 tyrosine phosphorylation induced by PDGF signaling facilitates cancer metastasis by promoting EMT. In this report, we show that p68 promotes breast cancer cell EMT and cell migration by upregulation of PDGF receptor β (PDGFR-β). Knockdown of p68 in MDA-MB-231 and BT549 cells significantly decreases PDGFR-β both in mRNA and protein levels. P68 promotes EMT and cell migration in response to PDGF-BB stimulation via upregulation of PDGFR-β, suggesting that p68 enhances PDGF signaling by a positive feedback loop in cancer cells. Furthermore, our study reveals that p68 mediates the effects of PDGFR-β in regulation of androgen receptor (AR) in breast cancer cells. We demonstrate that p68 and PDGFR-β co-regulate AR expression and promote androgen-mediated proliferation in breast cancer cells. Our studies uncover an important pathway of p68-PDGFR-β axis in promoting breast cancer progression.

Long non-coding RNA DIO3OS/let-7d/NF-κB2 axis regulates cells proliferation and metastasis of thyroid cancer cells.

Project description:Due to the steadily rising morbidity and mortality, thyroid cancer remains the most commonly seen endocrine cancer. The present study attempted to investigate the mechanism from the perspective of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) regulation. We identified 53 markedly increased lncRNAs in thyroid cancer samples according to TCGA data. Among them, high lncRNA DIO3OS expression was a risk factor for thyroid cancer patients' poorer overall survival. DIO3OS showed to be considerably increased within thyroid cancer tissue samples and cells. Knocking down DIO3OS within thyroid carcinoma cells suppressed cancer cell viability, the capacity of DNA synthesis, cell invasion, as well as cell migration; besides, proliferating markers, ki-67 and PCNA, were decreased by DIO3OS knockdown. Cancer bioinformatics analysis suggested that NF-κB2 might be related to DIO3OS function in thyroid cancer carcinogenesis. NF-κB2 was positively correlated with DIO3OS, and DIO3OS knockdown decreased NF-κB2 protein levels. Knocking down NF-κB2 within thyroid carcinoma cells suppressed cancer cell viability, the capacity of DNA synthesis, cell invasion, cell migration, and the protein levels of proliferating markers. Let-7d directly targeted DIO3OS and NF-κB2; DIO3OS knockdown upregulated let-7d expression. The overexpression of let-7d suppressed cancer cell viability, the capacity of DNA synthesis, cell invasion, cell migration, as well as the protein levels of proliferating markers. Let-7d inhibition remarkably attenuated the functions of DIO3OS knockdown in NF-κB2 expression and thyroid cancer cell phenotype. In conclusion, DIO3OS/let-7d/NF-κB2 axis regulates the viability, DNA synthesis capacity, invasion, and migration of thyroid cancer cells. The clinical application of this axis needs further in vivo and clinical investigation.

Microarray Expression Profiling of Long Non-Coding RNAs Involved in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Metastasis.

Project description:Increasing evidence has demonstrated a significant role for long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in tumorigenesis. However, their functions in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) metastasis remain largely unknown. In this study, a model comparing high and low metastatic NPC cell lines (5-8F vs. 6-10B and S18 vs. S26) was constructed to determine the expression profile of lncRNAs using the microarray analysis, and we found 167 lncRNAs and 209 mRNAs were differentially expressed. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that the dysregulated mRNAs participated in important biological regulatory functions in NPC. Validation of 26 significantly dysregulated lncRNAs by qRT-PCR showed the expression patterns of 22 lncRNAs were in accordance with the microarray data. Furthermore, the expression level of ENST00000470135, which was the most upregulated lncRNA in high metastatic cell lines, was significantly higher in NPC cell lines and tissues with lymph node metastasis (LNM) and knocking down ENST00000470135 suppressed the migration, invasion and proliferation of NPC cells in vitro. In conclusion, our study revealed expression patterns of lncRNAs in NPC metastasis. The dysregulated lncRNAs may act as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for NPC.

MicroRNA-1296 Facilitates Proliferation, Migration And Invasion Of Colorectal Cancer Cells By Targeting SFPQ.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in cancer genesis and progression via acting as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Previous studies report that miR-1296 shows upregulation in both colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues and plasma samples. However, the accurate clinical significance of miR-1296 and its role in CRC have not been well investigated. The aim of the present study was to disclose the aberrant expression, clinical significance, and the relevant biological function of miR-1296 in CRC. We found a marked upregulation of miR-1296 expression in CRC tissues compared to tumor-adjacent tissues. MiR-1296 overexpression was detected in five CRC cell lines (HCT116, Caco2, HT29, SW620 and SW480). High miR-1296 level was remarkably correlated with tumor size (>5cm), lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (III+IV). Notably. High miR-1296 expression was identified as a predictive factor for poor prognosis of CRC patients by survival analysis. MiR-1296 knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration, invasion capacities of HCT116 and SW480 cells in vitro. Moreover, miR-1296 silencing restrained the growth of CRC cells in vivo. Splicing factor proline and glutamine rich (SFPQ), a novel RNA binding protein, was identified as a direct target gene of miR-1296 in CRC. Downregulation of SFPQ expression was inversely associated with miR-1296 expression in CRC tissues. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data revealed the prognostic value of dysregulated SFPQ in CRC patients. Interestingly, our findings established that the oncogenic role of miR-1296 was at least partially mediated by SFPQ in CRC cells. Collectively, these data indicate that miR-1296 accelerates CRC progression possibly by targeting SFPQ and may serve as a potential predictive factor and therapeutic target for CRC.

Long non-coding RNA LINC00520 promotes the proliferation and metastasis of malignant melanoma by inducing the miR-125b-5p/EIF5A2 axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong intergenic non-protein coding RNA 520 (LINC00520), a novel identified lncRNA, has been shown to modulate the malignant phenotype of tumor cells in some malignant tumors. However, the exact role and molecular mechanism of LINC00520 in malignant melanoma has not been studied.MethodsThe expression of LINC00520 in melanoma tissues were detected by using RNA-seq analysis and qRT-PCR. Melanoma cases from the public databases (The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), GEO#GSE15605, GEO#GSE34460 and GEO#GSE24996) were included in this study. CCK-8 assay, EdU assay, transwell and scratch wound assay were used to explore the role of LINC00520 in melanoma cells. Luciferase reporter assays, MS2-RIP, RNA pull-down and RNA-ChIP assay were used to demonstrate the molecular biological mechanism of LINC00520 in melanoma.ResultsWe found that LICN00520 was found to be overexpressed in melanoma tissue. High expression of LICN00520 is a risk factor for the prognosis of melanoma patients. LINC00520 promotes the proliferation, invasion and migration of melanoma cells. LICN00520 exerted its oncogenic role by competitive binding miR-125b-5p to promote Eukaryotic initiation factor 5A2 (EIF5A2) expression. We also showed that LICN00520 promotes the growth and metastasis of melanoma in vivo through regulating miR-125b-5p/EIF5A2 axis.ConclusionsAll results elucidated the role and molecular mechanism of LINC00520 in the malignant development of melanoma. LINC00520, a new oncogene in melanoma, maybe serve as a survival biomarkers or therapeutic target for melanoma patients.
