MiR-19a/b promote EMT and proliferation in glioma cells via SEPT7-AKT-NF-?B pathway.

ABSTRACT: miR-19a/b belong to the miR-17-92 family. We have demonstrated previously that miR-19a/b are overexpressed in glioma and glioma cell lines. However, the role of miR-19a/b in glioma remains unclear. In the present study, we aim to identify the biological function and molecular mechanism of miR-19a/b in glioma cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Knocking down miR-19a/b in LN308 glioblastoma (GBM) cells with higher expression of miR-19a/b inhibits cell proliferation and invasion, induces apoptosis, and suppresses EMT by downregulating the expression of Akt, phosphorylated p-Akt, nuclear factor ?B (NF-?B), Snail, N-cadherin, and Vimentin and upregulating E-cadherin in vitro and in vivo. Enhanced proliferation and EMT are also observed when miR-19a/b are transfected into SNB19 GBM cells, with lowered expression of miR-19a/b. miR-19a is more effective than miR-19b in the regulation of biological behavior of glioma cells. miR-19a/b modulate molecular events for the promotion of EMT via the Akt-NF-?B pathway. SEPT7 has been confirmed as the target gene of miR-19a/b. The effect of miR-19a/b on proliferation and EMT of glioma cells and the Akt-NF-?B pathway could be reversed by transfection with SEPT7. Our study strongly suggests that miR-19a/b play a significant role in glioma progression and EMT through regulating target gene-SEPT7 and the SEPT7-Akt-NF-?B pathway.

Project description:BackgroundThe primary issue arising from prostate cancer (PCa) is its high prevalence to metastasize to bone, which severely affects the quality of life and survival time of PCa patients. miR-210-3p is a well-documented oncogenic miRNA implicated in various aspects of cancer development, progression and metastasis. However, the clinical significance and biological roles of miR-210-3p in PCa bone metastasis remain obscure.MethodsmiR-210-3p expression was evaluated by real-time PCR in 68 bone metastatic and 81 non-bone metastatic PCa tissues. The biological roles of miR-210-3p in the bone metastasis of PCa were investigated both in vitro by EMT and Transwell assays, and in vivo using a mouse model of left cardiac ventricle inoculation. Bioinformatics analysis, real-time PCR, western blot and luciferase reporter analysis were applied to discern and examine the relationship between miR-210-3p and its potential targets. RT-PCR was performed to identify the underlying mechanism of miR-210-3p overexpression in bone metastasis of PCa. Clinical correlation of miR-210-3p with its targets was examined in human PCa and metastatic bone tissues.ResultsmiR-210-3p expression is elevated in bone metastatic PCa tissues compared with non-bone metastatic PCa tissues. Overexpression of miR-210-3p positively correlates with serum PSA levels, Gleason grade and bone metastasis status in PCa patients. Upregulating miR-210-3p enhances, while silencing miR-210-3p represses the EMT, invasion and migration of PCa cells in vitro. Importantly, silencing miR-210-3p significantly inhibits bone metastasis of PC-3 cells in vivo. Our results further demonstrate that miR-210-3p maintains the sustained activation of NF-κB signaling via targeting negative regulators of NF-κB signaling (TNF-α Induced Protein 3 Interacting Protein 1) TNIP1 and (Suppressor Of Cytokine Signaling 1) SOCS1, resulting in EMT, invasion, migration and bone metastasis of PCa cells. Moreover, our results further indicate that recurrent gains (amplification) contribute to miR-210-3p overexpression in a small number of PCa patients. The clinical correlation of miR-210-3p with SOCS1, TNIP1 and NF-κB signaling activity is verified in PCa tissues.ConclusionOur findings unravel a novel mechanism for constitutive activation of NF-κB signaling pathway in the bone metastasis of PCa, supporting a functional and clinical significance of epigenetic events in bone metastasis of PCa.
