LncARSR sponges miR-34a-5p to promote colorectal cancer invasion and metastasis via hexokinase-1-mediated glycolysis.

ABSTRACT: Aerobic glycolysis metabolic reprogramming is one of the most important hallmarks of malignant tumors. Increasing evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are able to regulate glycolysis metabolic reprogramming and promote cancer progression by functioning as competing endogenous RNAs. lncARSR is a newly identified onco-lncRNA in renal cancer, but its potential role in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. Here, we analyzed specimens from 89 patients with CRC and demonstrated that lncARSR was highly expressed in CRC tissues and negatively associated with survival. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography imaging with fluoro-2-d-deoxyglucose F18 to evaluate glucose uptake showed that lncARSR expression was positively correlated with maximum standardized uptake values. Functionally, ectopic expression of lncARSR promoted the invasion, metastasis, and glycolysis metabolic reprogramming of CRC cells in vitro and in vivo, while these activities were inhibited by silencing lncARSR expression. Molecularly, lncARSR sponged miR-34a-5p and further mediated hexokinase 1 (HK1)-related aerobic glycolysis in vitro and in vivo. Clinically, high lncARSR and HK1 expression predicted poor survival of patients with CRC, especially when combined with low miR-34a-5p expression. Collectively, we identified lncARSR as an onco-lncRNA in CRC and demonstrated that the combination of lncARSR/miR-34a-5p/HK1 may be a potential prognostic biomarker of CRC.

Project description:BackgroundThe low expression of miR93/25 (members of miR-106b~25 cluster) promoted the invasion and metastasis of colon cancer cells, which predicted poor survival. However, the role of miR-106b-5p, the member of miR-106b~25 cluster, in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear.MethodsBioinformatics methods were used to predict the potential pairs of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA. In situ hybridization and qPCR were used to evaluate the expression of MALAT1 and miR-106b-5p in the paraffin-embedded normal and CRC tissues. Kaplan-Meier analysis with the log-rank test was used for survival analyses. Immunohistochemistry staining was applied to investigate the expression of SLAIN2. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching assay was applied to observe the microtubule (MT) mobility. In vitro and in vivo invasion and metastasis assays were used to explore the function of MALAT1/miR-106b-5p/SLAIN2 in the progression of CRC.FindingsmiR-106b-5p was identified as a suppressor in CRC. Functionally, ectopic or silencing the expression of miR-106b-5p inhibited or promoted the invasion and metastasis of CRC cells in vitro and in vivo. The long non-coding RNA MALAT1 regulated the miR-106b-5p expression and further mediated the mobility of SLAIN2-related MTs by functioning as a competing endogenous RNA in vitro and in vivo, which resulted in the progression of CRC. Clinically, low miR-106b-5p expression predicted poor survival of CRC patients, especially in combination with high MALAT1/ SLAIN2 expression.InterpretationmiR-106b-5p served as a suppressor in combination with MALAT1/miR-106b-5p/SLAIN2, which might be a group of potential prognostic biomarkers in the prognosis of CRC.
