VPS33B modulates c-Myc/p53/miR-192-3p to target CCNB1 suppressing the growth of non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: VPS33B is reported to be a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, colon cancer, and lung adenocarcinoma. Here, we observed that reduced VPS33B protein level was an unfavorable factor that promoted the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in clinical specimens. We achieved lentivirus-mediated stable overexpression of VPS33B in NSCLC cells. Increased VPS33B reduced cell cycle transition and cell proliferation of NSCLC cells in vivo and in vitro. Knocking down VPS33B restored cell growth. Mechanism analysis indicated that miR-192-3p was induced by VPS33B and acted as a tumor suppressor of cell growth in NSCLC. Further, c-Myc or p53 was identified as a transcription factor that bound to the miR-192-3p promoter and regulated its expression. miR-192-3p directly targeted cell cycle-promoted factor CCNB1 and suppressed NSCLC cell growth. VPS33B modulated c-Myc/p53/miR-192-3p signaling to target CCNB1 by reducing activation of the Ras/ERK pathway. Our study reveals a novel molecular basis for VPS33B as a tumor suppressor to participate in the pathogenesis of NSCLC.

Project description:Background & aimsThe paradox of hepatic insulin resistance describes the inability for liver to respond to bioenergetics hormones in suppressing gluconeogenesis whilst maintaining lipid synthesis. Here, we report the deficiency of miR-192-3p in the livers of mice with diabetes and its role in alleviating hepatic steatosis.MethodsAs conventional pre-microRNA (miRNA) stem-loop overexpression only boosts guiding strand (i.e. miR-192-5p) expression, we adopted an artificial AAV(DJ)-directed, RNA Pol III promoter-driven miRNA hairpin construct for star-strand-specific overexpression in the liver. Liver steatosis and insulin resistance markers were evaluated in primary hepatocytes, mice with diabetes, and mice with excessive carbohydrate consumption.ResultsFunctional loss of miR-192-3p in liver exacerbated hepatic micro-vesicular steatosis and insulin resistance in either mice with diabetes or wild-type mice with excessive fructose consumption. Liver-specific overexpression of miR-192-3p effectively halted hepatic steatosis and ameliorated insulin resistance in these mice models. Likewise, hepatocytes overexpressing miR-192-3p exhibited improved lipid accumulation, accompanied with decreases in lipogenesis and lipid-accumulation-related transcripts. Mechanistically, glucocorticoid receptor (GCR, also known as nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1 [NR3C1]) was demonstrated to be negatively regulated by miR-192-3p. The effect of miR-192-3p on mitigating micro-vesicular steatosis was ablated by the reactivation of NR3C1.ConclusionsThe star strand miR-192-3p was an undermined glycerolipid regulator involved in controlling fat accumulation and insulin sensitivity in liver through blockade of hepatic GCR signalling; this miRNA may serve as a potential therapeutic option for the common co-mobility of diabetic mellitus and fatty liver disease.Lay summaryThe potential regulatory activity of star strand microRNA (miRNA) species has been substantially underestimated. In this study, we investigate the role and mechanism of an overlooked star strand miRNA (miR-192-3p) in regulating hepatic steatosis and insulin signalling in the livers of mice with diabetes and mice under excessive carbohydrate consumption.

Project description:BACKGROUND To identify noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers for membranous nephropathy (MN). MATERIAL AND METHODS The mRNA microarray datasets GSE73953 using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 8 membranous nephropathy patients and 2 control patients; and microRNAs (miRNA) microarray dataset GSE64306 using urine sediments of 4 membranous nephropathy patients and 6 control patients were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were respectively identified from PBMCs and urine sediments of membranous nephropathy patients, followed with functional enrichment analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis, and miRNA-target gene analysis. Finally, the DEGs and the target genes of DEMs were overlapped to obtain crucial miRNA-mRNA interaction pairs for membranous nephropathy. RESULTS A total of 1246 DEGs were identified from PBMCs samples, among them upregulated CCL5 was found to be involved in the chemokine signaling pathway, and BAX was found to be apoptosis related; while downregulated PPM1A and CDK1 were associated with the MAPK signaling pathway and the p53 signaling pathway, respectively. The hub role of CDK1 (degree=18) and CCL5 (degree=12) were confirmed after protein-protein interaction network analysis in which CKD1 could interact with RAB1A. A total of 28 DEMs were identified in urine sediments. The 276 target genes of DEMs were involved in cell cycle arrest (PPM1A) and intracellular signal transduction (BRSK1). Thirteen genes were shared between the DEGs in PMBCs and the target genes of DEMs in urine sediments, but only hsa-miR-192-3p-RAB1A, hsa-miR-195-5p-PPM1A, and hsa-miR-328-5p-BRSK1 were negatively related in their expression level. CONCLUSIONS Both peripheral blood and urinary miR-195-5p, miR-192-3p, miR-328-5p, and their target genes PPM1A, RAB1A, and BRSK1 may be potential biomarkers for membranous nephropathy by participating in inflammation and apoptosis.
