MAGI2-AS3 rs7783388 polymorphism contributes to colorectal cancer risk through altering the binding affinity of the transcription factor GR to the MAGI2-AS3 promoter.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It has been indicated that the single nuclear polymorphisms (SNPs) in the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) have association with colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility.

Methods

We enrolled 1078 cases with CRC and 1175 age- and gender-matched cancer-free controls to explore whether the polymorphisms in MAGI2-AS3 have associations with CRC risk. qRT-PCR, expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses, dual-luciferase reporter assay, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), flow cytometry, and transwell assays were performed to explore the specific mechanisms in which MAGI2-AS3 rs7783388 variation influenced the tumorigenesis of CRC.

Results

Subjects carrying rs7783388 GG genotype presented a higher risk of CRC compared with the AG/AA genotypes. Mechanistically, we found that the functional genetic variant of rs7783388 A > G decreased binding affinity of transcription factor glucocorticoid receptor (GR) to the MAGI2-AS3 promoter, resulting in decreased transcriptional activity that subsequently downregulated MAGI2-AS3 expression. Furthermore, functional experiments elucidated that MAGI2-AS3 overexpression suppressed CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion capacities, arrested cell cycle at G0/G1 phase, and promoted cell apoptosis.

Conclusion

Taken together, our study demonstrated that the potential function of MAGI2-AS3 as a tumor suppressor for CRC, and the MAGI2-AS3 rs7783388 polymorphism is associated with the increased susceptibility to CRC by altering the binding ability of GR to the MAGI2-AS3 promoter.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have an effect on the occurrence and progression of a considerable number of diseases, especially cancer. Existing research has suggested that MAGI2 antisense RNA 3 (MAGI2-AS3) takes on a critical significance in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma and lung cancer. However, the functions of MAGI2-AS3 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) remain unclear. In this study, MAGI2-AS3 expression level in LSCC tissue and cell lines was detected, and the effect of MAGI2-AS3 overexpressed on LSCC phenotypes and the possible influence mechanisms were examined. MAGI2-AS3 was downregulated in the tissues of LSCC patients versus non-tumor tissues, and it was correlated with advanced TNM (tumor, node, metastasis) stage and lymph node metastases, as indicated by the results of this study. MAGI2-AS3 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LSCC cells in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the hypermethylation level of the MAGI2-AS3 promoter region was indicated by bisulfite genomic sequencing and methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, such that MAGI2-AS3 expression was downregulated. Besides, MAGI2-AS3 promoter hypermethylation was regulated by DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), and MAGI2-AS3 expression was reversed by 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza). Moreover, the result of the RNA pull-down experiment suggested that 38 proteins were enriched in the MAGI2-AS3 group versus the control group in TU177 cells. To be specific, SPT6 (ie, a conserved protein) was enriched by fold change >10. SPT6 knockdown reduced the antitumor effect of MAGI2-AS3 in TU177 and AMC-HN-8 cells. Meanwhile, SPT6 overexpression inhibited the proliferation, metastasis, and invasion of TU177 and AMC-HN-8 cells. As revealed by the above findings, DNMT1-regulated MAGI2-AS3 promoter hypermethylation led to downregulated MAGI2-AS3 expression, such that the presence and progression of LSCC were inhibited in an SPT6 binding-dependent manner.
