LncRNA LINC00857 strengthens the malignancy behaviors of pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells by serving as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-340-5p to upregulate TGFA expression.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a pancreatic disease with a high mortality rate in the world. This present research intends to identify the function of lncRNA LINC00857/miR-340-5p/Transforming growth factor alpha (TGFA) in the progression of PAAD.

Methods

Bioinformatics analysis was used to explore the differentially expressed lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA and analyze the relationship between lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA expression and prognosis of PAAD by enquiring TCGA, GEO and GTEX. KEGG pathway analysis and GO enrichment analysis were implemented to annotate the crucial genes regulated by LINC00857. The biological behaviors of PAAD cells were detected by CCK-8, colony formation and transwell assays. Interactive associations between LINC00857 and miR-340-5p, as well as miR-340-5p and TGFA were analyzed by dual luciferase assay.

Results

By enquiring TCGA database, we got that LINC00857 was highly expressed in patients with PAAD and positively associated with worse prognosis in PAAD patients. Moreover, LINC00857 upregulation promoted the proliferation and clone formation abilities of PAAD cells. Afterwards, the downstream miRNA and mRNA targets of LINC00857 were picked up to construct a ceRNA network. Further study revealed that TGFA expression was positively regulated by LINC00857 and negatively regulated by miR-340-5p. Besides that, the inhibitory effect of miR-340-5p on PAAD cells growth and movement can be blocked by LINC00857 upregulation. While, the malignant behavior of PAAD cells induced by TGFA overexpression can be eliminated by LINC00857 knockdown.

Conclusions

Upregulation of LINC00857 improved growth, invasion and migration abilities of PAAD cells by modulation of miR-340-5p/TGFA, affording potential targets and biomarkers for the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Project description:Simple Summary Based on the latest research, cancer cells prefer glutamine to glucose. Therefore, it is more worthwhile to explore the regulatory mechanism of glutamine metabolism in cancer cells. Super enhancers are critical for the gene transcriptional programs responsible for cell fate by interacting with various transcription factors. The transcription factor HSF1 exerts a multifaced role in tumorigenesis. However, the relevance of HSF1 to super enhancers in tumors remains obscure. Therefore, this study focused on the mechanism underlying super-enhancer activation and its relationship to HSF1 in CRC. Here, we performed a super-enhancer landscape in CRC and we screened out an HSF1-mediated super enhancer, lncRNA-LINC00857, by lncRNA microarray. We discovered that HSF1 could stimulate acetyltransferase P300-mediated super-enhancer activity to facilitate LINC00857 expression, contributing to SLC1A5/ASCT2-mediated glutamine transport. In addition, we validated that targeting the HSF1/LINC00857/ANXA11 axis may provide a valuable therapeutic strategy against CRC. Abstract Super enhancers are critical for the gene transcription responsible for cell fate by interacting with transcription factors. However, the relevance of HSF1 to super enhancers in tumors remains obscure. We profiled H3K27ac enrichment by chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing. HSF1-mediated lncRNAs were identified by lncRNA microarray. The characteristics of LINC00857 were explored by in vitro and in vivo assays. The mechanism was studied via chromatin immunoprecipitation, RNA immunoprecipitation, and HSF1/ANXA11 knockout mice. We found that super enhancers occupied multiple gene loci in colorectal cancer. We screened out an HSF1-mediated super enhancer, lncRNA-LINC00857, which exerts its characteristics in promoting cell growth via regulating glutamine metabolism. Notably, HSF1 could stimulate the super-enhancer activity of LINC00857 by the enrichment of acetyltransferase P300 to its gene loci, contributing to LINC00857 transcription. In turn, nuclear LINC00857 cooperated with HSF1 to promote ANXA11 transcription, which modulated SLC1A5/ASCT2 protein expression by binding competitively to miR-122-5p. The knockout of ANXA11 attenuated colorectal cancer formation in vivo. Collectively, we shed light on a closely cooperative machinery between HSF1 and super enhancers. HSF1 could stimulate acetyltransferase P300-mediated super-enhancer activity to facilitate LINC00857 expression, contributing to SLC1A5-mediated glutamine transport. Targeting the HSF1/LINC00857/ANXA11 axis may provide a valuable therapeutic strategy against colorectal cancer.
