Long Non-Coding RNA KCNQ1OT1 Promotes Multidrug Resistance in Chordoma by Functioning as a Molecular Sponge of miR-27b-3p and Subsequently Increasing ATF2 Expression.

ABSTRACT: Background:Chordoma, a rare bone tumor, occurs most commonly at the sacrococcygeal and skull base region. To date, chemotherapy is used to treat patients with advanced-stage chordoma. However, multidrug resistance (MDR) greatly hinders the effect of chemotherapy in chordoma. Here, we studied the correlation between KCNQ1OT1 and chemotherapy resistance. Methods:RT-PCR assay was used to examine KCNQ1OT1, miR-27b-3p, and ATF2 mRNA expression. CCK8 assay was exercised to detect IC50 values of cisplatin in chordoma cells. ATF2 protein expression was detected by Western blot. Results:KCNQ1OT1 was increased in chemotherapy-resistant patients and cisplatin-resistant cells, and downregulation of KCNQ1OT1 expression weakened MDR in chordoma. In addition, KCNQ1OT1 promoted MDR in chordoma by sponging miR-27b-3p and subsequently increasing ATF2 expression. Conclusion:KCNQ1OT1 is proved to be strikingly raised in the chemotherapy-resistant group and to promote MDR in chordoma. Our findings demonstrated the role of the KCNQ1OT1/miR-27b-3p/ATF2 axis in MDR of chordoma, which provides new insight into the molecular mechanism of chordoma MDR, and may determine the effect of therapy after receiving chemotherapy by detecting the expression of KCNQ1OT1 in serum.

Project description:ObjectiveSynovial fibrosis contributes to osteoarthritis (OA) pathology, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We have observed increased microRNA-27b-3p (miR-27b-3p) levels in synovial fluid of patients with late-stage radiographic knee OA. Here, we investigated the contribution of miR-27b-3p to synovial fibrosis in patients with severe knee OA and in a mouse model of knee OA.MethodsWe stained synovium sections obtained from patients with radiographic knee OA scored according to the Kellgren/Lawrence scale and mice that underwent destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) for miR-27b-3p using in situ hybridization. We examined the effects of intraarticular injection of miR-27b-3p mimic into naive mouse knee joints and intraarticular injection of a miR-27b-3p inhibitor into mouse knee joints after DMM. We performed transfection with miR-27b-3p mimic and miR-27b-3p inhibitor in human OA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) using reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) array, RNA sequencing, RT-qPCR, Western blotting, immunofluorescence, and migration assays.ResultsWe observed increased miR-27b-3p expression in the synovium from patients with knee OA and in mice with DMM-induced arthritis. Injection of the miR-27b-3p mimic in mouse knee joints induced a synovial fibrosis-like phenotype, increased synovitis scores, and increased COL1A1 and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression. In the mouse model of DMM-induced arthritis, injection of the miR-27b-3p inhibitor decreased α-SMA but did not change COL1A1 expression levels or synovitis scores. Transfection with the miR-27b-3p mimic in human OA FLS induced profibrotic responses, including increased migration and expression of key extracellular matrix (ECM) genes, but transfection with the miR-27b-3p inhibitor had the opposite effects. RNA sequencing identified a PPARG/ADAMTS8 signaling axis regulated by miR-27b-3p in OA FLS. Human OA FLS transfected with miR-27b-3p mimic and then treated with the PPARG agonist rosiglitazone or with ADAMTS8 small interfering RNA exhibited altered expression of select ECM genes.ConclusionOur findings demonstrate that miR-27b-3p has a key role in ECM regulation associated with synovial fibrosis during OA.
