CircPTCH1 promotes invasion and metastasis in renal cell carcinoma via regulating miR-485-5p/MMP14 axis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new class of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that are derived from exons or introns by special selective shearing. circRNAs have been shown to play critical roles in various human cancers. However, their roles in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Methods: A novel circRNA-circPTCH1, was identified from a microarray analysis of five paired RCC tissues. Then, we validated its expression and characterization through qRT-PCR, gel electrophoresis, RNase R digestion assays and Sanger sequencing. Functional experiments were performed to determine the effect of circPTCH1 on RCC progression both in vitro and in vivo. The interactions between circPTCH1 and miR-485-5p were clarified by RNA pull-down, luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. Results: We observed that circPTCH1 was up-regulated in RCC cell lines and tumor samples, and higher levels of circPTCH1 were significantly correlated with worse patient survival, advanced Fuhrman grade and greater risk of metastases. Elevated circPTCH1 expression led to increased migration and invasion of RCC cells both in vitro and in vivo whereas silencing circPTCH1 decreased migration and invasion and impeded the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of RCC cells. Mechanistically, we elucidated that circPTCH1 could directly bind miR-485-5p and subsequently suppress expression of the target gene MMP14. Conclusion: circPTCH1 promotes RCC metastasis via the miR-485-5p/MMP14 axis and activation of the EMT process. Targeting circPTCH1 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for metastatic RCC.

Long non-coding RNA CCAT1 promotes cervical cancer cell proliferation and invasion by regulating the miR-181a-5p/MMP14 axis.

Project description:Cervical cancer is a serious threat to women's health and is the third most common malignancy in women worldwide. Recent studies indicate that the long non-coding RNA CCAT1 plays a role in the malignant behavior of many tumors. However, the role of CCAT1 in cervical cancer is still unknown. Our aim is to evaluate the expression and investigate the regulatory role and potential mechanism of CCAT1 in cervical cancer. CCAT1 expression was measured by qRT-PCR. In addition, CCK-8 assays, colony formation assays, qRT-PCR assays, Transwell assays and xenograft experiments were performed to determine the role of CCAT1 in the proliferation and invasion in cervical cancer cells. The expression of CCAT1 in the cervical cancer tissues was higher than in the adjacent normal tissues. Overexpressing CCAT1 promoted cervical cancer cell proliferation, colony formation, and invasion in vitro. Elevated CCAT1 suppressed miR-181a expression, which was accompanied by an increased expression of MMP14 and HB-EGF. In contrast, knocking down CCAT1 resulted in increased expression of miR-181a, along with decreased expression of MMP14 and HB-EGF. Thus, CCAT1 is a key oncogenic lncRNA associated with cervical cancer and plays a role in promoting cervical cancer cell proliferation and invasion by regulating the miR-181a-5p/MMP14 axis.

LINC01224 promotes colorectal cancer progression through targeting miR-485-5p/MYO6 axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are related to colorectal cancer (CRC) development. However, the role and mechanism of lncRNA LINC01224 in CRC development are largely unknown.MethodsLINC01224, Yin Yang 1 (YY1), microRNA (miR)-485-5p, and myosins of class VI (MYO6) levels were examined using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Functional analyses were processed through CCK-8, colony formation, flow cytometry, transwell, and xenograft analyses. Dual-luciferase reporter, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), RNA immunoprecipitation, and pull-down assays were conducted to analyze the binding interaction.ResultsLINC01224 abundance was elevated in CRC tissue samples and cell lines. Elevated LINC01224 might indicate the lower 5-year overall survival in 52 CRC patients. LINC01224 was upregulated via the transcription factor YY1. LINC01224 knockdown restrained CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and increased apoptosis. MiR-485-5p was sponged by LINC01224, and miR-485-5p downregulation relieved the influence of LINC01224 interference on CRC progression. MYO6 was targeted via miR-485-5p and regulated via LINC01224/miR-485-5p axis. MiR-485-5p overexpression suppressed CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and facilitated apoptosis. MYO6 upregulation mitigated the role of miR-485-5p. LINC01224 knockdown decreased xenograft tumor growth.ConclusionYY1-induced LINC01224 regulates CRC development via modulating miR-485-5p/MYO6 axis.

The miR-193a-5p/NCX2/AKT axis promotes invasion and metastasis of osteosarcoma.

Project description:MiR-193a-5p has been observed to have oncogenic or tumor suppressive functions in different kinds of cancers, but its role and molecular mechanism in osteosarcoma are elusive. Na+/Ca2+ exchangers (NCX1, NCX2 and NCX3) normally extrude Ca2+ from the cell, and deregulation of the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis is related to several kinds of diseases, including cancer. The present study demonstrated that miR-193a-5p was upregulated in osteosarcoma tissues compared with the corresponding adjacent noncancerous tissues, and promoted colony formation, migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in osteosarcoma cells (SaOS-2 and U-2OS), as well as metastasis in a murine xenograft model. Tandem mass tag-based quantitative proteomics analysis identified NCX2 as a potential target of miR-193a-5p. Luciferase activity assays and Western blotting further confirmed that miR-193a-5p recognized the 3'-untranslated region of NCX2 mRNA, and negatively regulated NCX2 expression. NCX2 was downregulated in osteosarcoma tissues, and its expression was negatively correlated with miR-193a-5p levels. Ectopic expression of NCX2 in osteosarcoma cells could reverse the oncogenicity of miR-193a-5p, indicating that miR-193a-5p exerted its effects by targeting NCX2. Further study demonstrated that NCX2 suppresses Ca2+-dependent Akt phosphorylation by decreasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration, and then inhibited EMT process. Treatment with the antagomir against miR-193a-5p sensitized osteosarcoma to the Akt inhibitor afuresertib in a murine xenograft model. In conclusion, a miR-193a-5p/NCX2/AKT signaling axis contributes to the progression of osteosarcoma, which may provide a new therapeutic target for osteosarcoma treatment.

LncRNA MALAT1 mediates osteogenic differentiation in osteoporosis by regulating the miR-485-5p/WNT7B axis.

Project description:IntroductionAccumulating evidence demonstrates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are associated with the development of osteoporosis.MethodsThis study aimed to investigate the effects of MALAT1 on osteogenic differentiation and cell apoptosis in osteoporosis. MALAT1 level, detected by RT-qPCR, was downregulated in hindlimb unloading (HU) mice and simulated microgravity (MG)-treated MC3T3-E1 cells. Moreover, osteogenic differentiation-related factor (Bmp4, Col1a1, and Spp1) levels were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot. ALP activity was detected, and ALP staining was performed. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry.ResultsThe results revealed that MALAT1 upregulated the expression of Bmp4, Col1a1, and Spp1, and enhanced ALP activity. Knockdown of MALAT1 suppressed their expression and ALP activity, suggesting that MALAT1 promoted osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, MALAT1 inhibited apoptosis, increased Bax and caspase-3 levels, and decreased Bcl-2 level. However, knockdown of MALAT1 had opposite results. In MG cells, MALAT1 facilitated osteogenic differentiation and suppressed apoptosis. Furthermore, miR-485-5p was identified as a target of MALAT1, and WNT7B was verified as a target of miR-485-5p. Overexpression of miR-485-5p rescued the promotion of osteogenic differentiation and the inhibition of apoptosis induced by MALAT1. Knockdown of WNT7B abolished the facilitation of osteogenic differentiation and the suppression of apoptosis induced by downregulation of miR-485-5p.DiscussionIn conclusion, MALAT1 promoted osteogenic differentiation and inhibited cell apoptosis through the miR-485-5p/WNT7B axis, which suggested that MALAT1 is a potential target to alleviate osteoporosis.

FAM83H-AS1/miR-485-5p/MEF2D axis facilitates proliferation, migration and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Project description:BackgroundAbundant evidence has manifested that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are closely implicated in human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Remarkably, lncRNA FAM83H antisense RNA 1 (FAM83H-AS1) has been reported to be a tumor-propeller in multiple cancers. However, its effect on HCC progression remains unknown.MethodsFAM83H-AS1 expression was analyzed by RT-qPCR. Colony formation, EdU, and flow cytometry as well as transwell assays were implemented to analyze the biological functions of FAM83H-AS1 on HCC progression. Luciferase reporter, RIP and RNA pull-down assays were implemented to detect the interaction among FAM83H-AS1, microRNA-485-5p (miR-485-5p), and myocyte enhancer factor 2D (MEF2D) in HCC cells.ResultsFAM83H-AS1 expression in HCC cells was markedly elevated. FAM83H-AS1 accelerated cell proliferation, migration and invasion whereas inhibiting cell apoptosis in HCC. Besides, we confirmed that FAM83H-AS1 acts as a miR-485-5p sponge in HCC cells. Additionally, MEF2D was verified to be a direct target of miR-485-5p. FAM83H-AS1 could upregulate MEF2D expression via sponging miR-485-5p. Further, rescue experiments testified that MEF2D upregulation or miR-485-5p downregulation offset the repressive effect of FAM83H-AS1 depletion on HCC cell progression.ConclusionsFAM83H-AS1 facilitates HCC malignant progression via targeting miR-485-5p/MEF2D axis, suggesting that FAM83H-AS1 may be a promising biomarker for HCC treatment in the future.

MiR-485-3p and miR-485-5p suppress breast cancer cell metastasis by inhibiting PGC-1α expression.

Project description:Breast cancer is the worldwide leading cause of cancer mortality in women. The majority of deaths from breast cancer arise from metastasis of local tumors. Cancer cells support their rapid proliferation by diverting metabolites into anabolic pathways, but during cancer metastasis, the proliferative program of invasive cancer cells is suspended for a migratory phenotype. In this study, we demonstrated that both mature forms of miRNA-485, miR-485-3p and miR-485-5p were involved in regulating mitochondrial respiration, cell migration and cell invasion in breast cancer cells by directly targeting and inhibiting the expression of PGC-1α. Specifically, the expression levels of both miR-485-3p and miR-485-5p were decreased in breast cancer tissues. Overexpression of miR-485-3p and miR-485-5p suppressed mitochondrial respiration and potential for cell migration and invasion in vitro, and also inhibited spontaneous metastasis of breast cancer cells in vivo. The suppression of mitochondrial respiration and cell invasion could be partially relieved by restoration of PGC-1α expression.

MIR210HG promotes cell proliferation and invasion by regulating miR-503-5p/TRAF4 axis in cervical cancer.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the progression of cervical cancer (CC). However, the roles and underlying molecular mechanisms of lncRNAs in CC remain unclear. In the current study, we discovered a new lncRNA MIR210HG which was upregulated in CC tissues through microarray. The upregulation of MIR210HG was associated with advanced FIGO stage, metastasis, and poor prognosis in CC patients. Function assays showed that MIR210HG inhibition significantly suppressed the proliferation, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) processes in CC and reduced tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, we identified that MIR210HG might serve as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of miR-503-5p to relieve the repressive effect of miR-503-5p on TRAF4 expression in CC cells. In conclusion, we demonstrated that MIR210HG promoted CC progression through regulating the MIR210HG/miR-503-5p/TRAF4 axis, indicating that MIR210HG might act as a novel insight into CC treatment.

The role of miR-485-5p/NUDT1 axis in gastric cancer.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Cancers can survive the oxidative conditions by upregulating nucleoside diphosphate linked moiety X-type motif 1 (NUDT1). However, the mechanisms underlying gastric carcinogenesis and the dys-regulation of NUDT1 in gastric cancer (GC) remain unknown. Our study aimed to explore the role of NUDT1 and its regulatory pathway by miR-485-5p in GC. METHODS:Gastric cancer tissues and paired noncancerous tissue samples were collected, and the expression level of NUDT1 and miR-485-5p were detected. Two cohorts from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and another cohort from the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were further analyzed. Luciferase assays were performed, and the effects of the miR-485-5p/NUDT1 axis on GC cells and normal gastric cells were determined by subsequent experiments. RESULTS:We found that the expression of miR-485-5p was clearly repressed in GC tissues, while NUDT1 expression level was dramatically increased. The overexpression of NUDT1 correlated closely with an increase in invasive depth and a decrease in survival in GC patients. MiR-485-5p could directly bind to the 3'UTR of NUDT1 mRNA and induce its degradation, thus down-regulate its expression. The miR-485-5p/NUDT1 axis could lead to the changes of 8-oxo-dG in GC cells. And the increased expression of NUDT1 resulting from the downregulation of miR-485-5p could accelerate cell proliferation and metastasis in GC. However, the growth and migration of normal gastric cells did not depend on the protection of NUDT1, while the overexpression of NUDT1 could promote malignant transition in normal gastric cells. CONCLUSIONS:MiR-485-5p acts as a tumor suppressor by targeting NUDT1 in GC. The miR-485-5p/NUDT1 axis is involved in the processes of cell growth and cell motility and plays a key role in the tumorigenesis of GC.

ZNRD1-AS1 Promotes Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cell Invasion and Metastasis by Regulating the miR-335-ROCK1 Axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known as key regulators in many cancer types, but their biological functions in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remain largely unknown. In the present study, we aim to explore the role of the lncRNA ZNRD1-AS1 in NPC tumor development.MethodsThe role of ZNRD1-AS1 in NPC tissues and cells was explored by using quantitative real-time PCR assay. Cellular behavioral experiments were used in testing NPC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Luciferase reporter assay, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation, and Western blot analysis were used in estimating the associations among ZNRD1-AS1, miR-335, and ROCK1.ResultsZNRD1-AS1 expression was elevated in the NPC tissues and cells, and ZNRD1-AS1 overexpression was positively correlated with advanced TNM stage and the presence of lymph node metastasis. Our biological experiments indicated that ZNRD1-AS1 knockdown reduces NPC cell invasion and metastasis. Further analyses revealed that ZNRD1-AS1 as a ceRNA promotes the migration and invasion of NPC cells by sponging miR-335. We provided evidence that ZNRD1-AS1 facilitates the invasion and metastasis of NPC cells via the miR-335-ROCK1 axis.ConclusionOur data shed light on the oncogenic role of ZNRD1-AS1 in NPC tumor development, and a promising therapeutic target for NPC was identified.

circMET promotes NSCLC cell proliferation, metastasis, and immune evasion by regulating the miR-145-5p/CXCL3 axis.

Project description:In recent years, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been increasingly reported to play a crucial role in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. However, the circRNA MET (circMET) oncogenic mechanism that drives NSCLC development and progression remains largely unknown. In this study, the present results demonstrated that circMET expression was significantly higher in NSCLC tissues than in peritumoral tissues using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Notably, NSCLC patients with a large tumor diameter, poor differentiation and lymphatic metastasis had high RNA levels of circMET. Moreover, high circMET expression served as an independent risk factor for short overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in NSCLC patients. Next, we validated that circMET overexpression can enhance NSCLC cell proliferation, metastasis, and immune evasion in vitro. Mechanistically, our study uncovers that circMET acts as a miR-145-5p sponge to upregulate CXCL3 expression. Collectively, circMET regulates the miR-145-5p/CXCL3 axis and serves as a novel, promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in patients with NSCLC.
