MiR-218 inhibits glucose metabolism in non-small cell lung cancer via the NF-?B signaling pathway

ABSTRACT: High glucose metabolism is recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer and increased expression levels of several key factors involved in glucose metabolism have been reported in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Previous studies showed that microRNA (miR)-218 is reduced in NSCLC, but its function in glucose metabolism in NSCLC is not fully understood. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of miR-218 on glucose metabolism in NSCLC cell lines and the underlying molecular mechanism. The present results suggested that miR-218 reduced glucose consumption, the mechanism of glycolysis and activity in the pentose phosphate pathway. In addition, glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) was identified to be a direct target of miR-218, while overexpression of GLUT1 did not abolish the effect of miR-218 on glucose metabolism. The present results indicated that phosphorylation of NF-?B p65 was significantly decreased by miR-218 in NSCLC cells and that activation of NF-?B led to the inhibition of miR-218 regulation of glucose metabolism. In conclusion, the present results suggested that miR-218 downregulated glucose metabolism in NSCLC not only by directly targeting GLUT1, but also via the NF-?B signaling pathway.

MiR-210 inhibits NF-κB signaling pathway by targeting DR6 in osteoarthritis.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degradation of articular cartilage and joint inflammation. MicroRNAs have been proved to play an important role in the regulation of chondrogenesis. Previous study showed that microRNA-210 (miR-210) was probably associated with osteoarthritis, while the function of miR-210 in osteoarthritis still remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of miR-210 on osteoarthritis. In the in vitro study, miR-210 level in chondrocytes was decreased after treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Transfection with miR-210 mimic inhibited LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines production, cell viability reduction and cell apoptosis. Results of luciferase activity assay showed that miR-210 targeted 3'-UTR of death receptor 6 (DR6) to inhibit its expression. MiR-210 mimic and DR6 siRNA transfection inhibited the activation of NF-κB pathway and cell apoptosis of chondrocytes. For the in vivo study, OA model was established on rats by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT). MiR-210 expression is reduced in OA rats. MiR-210 over-expressing lentivirus was injected into the OA rats. Cytokines production, and NF-κB and DR6 expression in OA rats was inhibited by miR-210 overexpression. The results demonstrated that miR-210 decreased inflammation in articular cavity in OA rats by targeting DR6 and inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway.

MicroRNA-218-5p inhibits cell growth and metastasis in cervical cancer via <i>LYN</i>/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Project description:BackgroundWe are committed to investigate miR-218-5 effects on the progression of cervical cancer (CC) cell and find out the molecular mechanism.MethodsGSE9750 was obtained from GEO database and R Limma package was applied to filter out dysregulated genes. The pathways were enriched by GSEA software, ClusterProfiler and enrichplot packages to predict the function of DEGs. The binding sites of LYN were detected by miRanda and TargetScan. The miR2Disease database was used to find miRNAs related with CC. The expression of miR-218-5p and LYN were quantified by qRT-PCR and that of LYN protein was measured by western blot. The targeted relationships between miR-218-5p and LYN were verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Colony formation assays, wound healing, transwell invasion assay and flow cytometer analysis were performed to investigate the roles that miR-218-5p and LYN played in migration, invasion and death of cervical carcinoma. Xenografts established in nude mice were used to assess tumor growth in vivo.ResultsThe highly expressed mRNA LYN was selected by microarray analysis in GSE9750. NF-κB signaling pathway was enriched base on GSEA results. The expression of miR-218-5p was lower but LYN was higher in CC primary tumors compared with normal control. In addition, miR-218-5p could regulate the expression of LYN in HeLa cells negatively. Overexpression of LYN could promote cell migration and invasion, but inhibit cell death in vitro, and also promote tumor formation in vivo via activating NF-κB signaling pathway which could be reversed by miR-218-5p.ConclusionsMiR-218-5p suppressed the progression of CC via LYN/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Tumor-suppressive miR-218-5p inhibits cancer cell proliferation and migration via EGFR in non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 80% of lung cancer cases. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been consistently demonstrated to be involved in NSCLC and to act as either tumor oncogenes or tumor suppressors. In this study, we identified a specific binding site for miR-218-5p in the 3'-untranslated region of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). We further experimentally validated miR-218-5p as a direct regulator of EGFR. We also identified an inverse correlation between miR-218-5p and EGFR protein levels in NSCLC tissue samples. Moreover, we demonstrated that miR-218-5p plays a critical role in suppressing the proliferation and migration of lung cancer cells probably by binding to EGFR. Finally, we examined the function of miR-218-5p in vivo and revealed that miR-218-5p exerts an anti-tumor effect by negatively regulating EGFR in a xenograft mouse model. Taken together, the results of this study highlight an important role for miR-218-5p in the regulation of EGFR in NSCLC and may open new avenues for future lung cancer therapies.

MiR-218 Inhibits Erythroid Differentiation and Alters Iron Metabolism by Targeting ALAS2 in K562 Cells.

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in a variety of biological processes. The regulatory function and potential role of miRNAs targeting the mRNA of the 5'-aminolevulinate synthase 2 (ALAS2) in erythropoiesis were investigated in order to identify miRNAs which play a role in erythroid iron metabolism and differentiation. Firstly, the role of ALAS2 in erythroid differentiation and iron metabolism in human erythroid leukemia cells (K562) was confirmed by ALAS2 knockdown. Through a series of screening strategies and experimental validations, it was identified that hsa-miR-218 (miR-218) targets and represses the expression of ALAS2 by binding to the 3'-untranslated region (UTR). Overexpression of miR-218 repressed erythroid differentiation and altered iron metabolism in K562 cells similar to that seen in the ALAS2 knockdown in K562 cells. In addition to iron metabolism and erythroid differentiation, miR-218 was found to be responsible for a reduction in K562 cell growth. Taken together, our results show that miR-218 inhibits erythroid differentiation and alters iron metabolism by targeting ALAS2 in K562 cells.

MiR-218 targets MeCP2 and inhibits heroin seeking behavior.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of evolutionarily conserved, 18-25 nucleotide non-coding sequences that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. Recent studies implicated their roles in the regulation of neuronal functions, such as learning, cognition and memory formation. Here we report that miR-218 inhibits heroin-induced behavioral plasticity. First, network propagation-based method was used to predict candidate miRNAs that played potential key roles in regulating drug addiction-related genes. Microarray screening was also carried out to identify miRNAs responding to chronic heroin administration in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). Among the collapsed miRNAs, top-ranked miR-218 was decreased after chronic exposure to heroin. Lentiviral overexpression of miR-218 in NAc could inhibit heroin-induced reinforcement in both conditioned place preference (CPP) test and heroin self-administration experiments. Luciferase activity assay indicated that miR-218 could regulate 3' untranslated regions (3' UTR) of multiple neuroplasticity-related genes and directly target methyl CpG binding protein 2 (Mecp2). Consistently, Mecp2308/y mice exhibited reduced heroin seeking behavior in CPP test. These data reveal a functional role of miR-218 and its target, MeCP2, in the regulation of heroin-induced behavioral plasticity.

MiR-3188 Inhibits Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Cell Proliferation Through FOXO1-Mediated mTOR-p-PI3K/AKT-c-JUN Signaling Pathway.

Project description:This study investigated the role of miR-3188 on the proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer cells and its relationship to FOXO1-modulated feedback loop. Two non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines A549 and H1299 were used. RNA silencing was achieved by lentiviral transfection. Cell proliferation was assessed by immunohistochemical staining of Ki67 and PCNA, Edu incorporation, and colony formation assay. Western blotting was used to examine expression of FOXO1, mTOR, p-mTOR, CCND1, p21, c-JUN, AKT, pAKT, PI3K, p-PI3K, and p27 proteins. It was found that miR-3188 reduced cell proliferation in NSCLC cells. Molecular analyses indicated that the effect of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) was directly mediated by miR-3188, leading to p-PI3K/p-AKT/c-JUN inactivation. The inhibition of this signaling pathway further caused cell-cycle suppression. Moreover, FOXO1 was found to be involved in regulating the interaction of miR-3188 and mTOR through p-PI3K/p-AKT/c-JUN signaling pathway. Taken together, our study demonstrated that miR-3188 interacts with mTOR and FOXO1 to inhibit NSCLC cell proliferation through a mTOR-p-PI3K/AKT-c-JUN signaling pathway. Therefore, miR-3188 might be a potential target for the treatment of NSCLC.

MiR-525-5p inhibits diffuse large B cell lymphoma progression via the Myd88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a B-cell lymphoma with a high degree of aggressiveness. Recently, evidence has shown that miR-525-5p is decreased in DLBCL, suggesting its possible involvement in tumor progression. In this study, miR-525-5p suppressed proliferation, invasion and clonogenicity, and increased apoptosis of U2932 cells, whereas miR-525-5p silencing enhanced tumor cell growth. Next, miR-525-5p targets the 3'-UTR of Myd88, and Myd88 protein was increased in lymphoma tissues. Similar to the miR-525-5p mimic, Myd88 siRNA suppressed proliferation, invasion, and clonogenicity, and enhanced apoptosis of U2932 cells. We observed that Myd88 reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-525-5p on tumor cell growth by transfecting cells with miR-525-5p mimics alone or together with Myd88 overexpression vector. In addition, in vivo studies have shown that compared to the control group, U2932 cells with upregulated miR-525-5p expression have a reduced ability to induce tumor formation. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that miR-525-5p inhibits the progression of DLBCL through the Myd88/NF-κB pathway, which largely fills the gap of previous studies, and our results may provide a new reference for the targeted treatment of DLBCL.

miR-145-5p inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition via the JNK signaling pathway by targeting MAP3K1 in non-small cell lung cancer cells.

Project description:Lung cancer is one of the most common types of tumors and the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality in the world. Additionally, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for ~80% of all lung cancer cases. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important cell biological process, which is associated with cancer migration, metastasis, asthma and fibrosis in the lung. In the present study, it was revealed that miR-145-5p was able to suppress EMT by inactivating the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway in NSCLC cells. Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP3K1) was predicted and confirmed to be a novel target of miR-145-5p. Overexpression of MAP3K1 was able to reverse the inhibition of EMT induced by miR-145-5p via the JNK signaling pathway. Overall, the results revealed that miR-145-5p inhibits EMT via the JNK signaling pathway by targeting MAP3K1 in NSCLC cells.

MiR-378a inhibits glucose metabolism by suppressing GLUT1 in prostate cancer.

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) is the fifth leading cause of cancer related deaths worldwide, in part due to a lack of molecular stratification tools that can distinguish primary tumours that will remain indolent from those that will metastasise. Amongst potential molecular biomarkers, microRNAs (miRs) have attracted particular interest because of their high stability in body fluids and fixed tissues. These small non-coding RNAs modulate several physiological and pathological processes, including cancer progression. Herein we explore the prognostic potential and the functional role of miRs in localised PCa and their relation to nodal metastasis. We define a 7-miR signature that is associated with poor survival independently of age, Gleason score, pathological T state, N stage and surgical margin status and that is also prognostic for disease-free survival in patients with intermediate-risk localised disease. Within our 7-miR signature, we show that miR-378a-3p (hereafter miR-378a) levels are low in primary tumours compared to benign prostate tissue, and also lower in Gleason score 8-9 compared to Gleason 6-7 PCa. We demonstrate that miR-378a impairs glucose metabolism and reduces proliferation in PCa cells through independent mechanisms, and we identify glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) messenger RNA as a direct target of miR-378a. We show that GLUT1 inhibition hampers glycolysis, leading to cell death. Our data provides a rational for a new PCa stratification strategy based on miR expression, and it reveals that miR-378a and GLUT1 are potential therapeutic targets in highly aggressive glycolytic PCa.

Shikonin Inhibits Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer H1299 Cell Growth through Survivin Signaling Pathway

Project description:Overexpressed survivin is associated with worse survival of several types of human tumors. In this study, the antitumor activity of shikonin in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by regulating survivin pathway was investigated. Results showed that shikonin inhibited the NSCLC H1299 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, shikonin fits well with survivin by molecular docking. Shikonin also inhibited the mRNA expression and protein level of survivin in H1299 cells. Shikonin arrested H1299 cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase by regulating CDK/cyclin family members. In addition, shikonin regulated the expression of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis- (XIAP-) mediated caspases 3 and 9, thus leading to the damage of mitochondrial membrane potential and induction of H1299 cell apoptosis. Overall, shikonin inhibited H1299 cell growth by inducing apoptosis and blocking the cell cycle. The underlying mechanism involves targeting survivin, which subsequently regulates the protein expression of XIAP/caspase 3/9, CDK2/4, and cyclin E/D1. Thus, shikonin, a survivin inhibitor, is a promising therapeutic strategy in NSCLC treatment.
