Baicalein Induces Apoptosis of Pancreatic Cancer Cells by Regulating the Expression of miR-139-3p and miR-196b-5p.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor with a high incidence and mortality rate. The prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer is considerably poor due to the lack of effective treatment in clinically. Despite numerous studies have revealed that baicalein, a natural product, is responsible for suppressing multiple cancer cells proliferation, motility and invasion. The mechanism by which baicalein restraining pancreatic cancer progression remains unclear. In this study, we firstly verified that baicalein plays a critical role in inhibiting pancreatic tumorigenesis in vitro and in vivo. Then we analyzed the alteration of microRNAs (miRNAs) expression levels in Panc-1 cells incubated with DMSO, 50 and 100 μM baicalein by High-Throughput sequencing. Intriguingly, we observed that 20 and 39 miRNAs were accordingly up- and down-regulated through comparing Panc-1 cells exposed to 100 μM baicalein with the control group. Quantitative PCR analysis confirmed that miR-139-3p was the most up-regulated miRNA after baicalein treatment, while miR-196b-5p was the most down-regulated miRNA. Further studies showed that miR-139-3p induced, miR-196b-5p inhibited the apoptosis of Panc-1 cells via targeting NOB1 and ING5 respectively. In conclusion, we demonstrated that baicalein is a potent inhibitor against pancreatic cancer by modulating the expression of miR-139-3p or miR-196b-5p.

Dual tumor-suppressors miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p targeting matrix metalloprotease 11 in bladder cancer.

Project description:Our recent study of the microRNA (miRNA) expression signature of bladder cancer (BC) by deep-sequencing revealed that two miRNA, microRNA-139-5p/microRNA-139-3p were significantly downregulated in BC tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the functional roles of these miRNA and their modulation of cancer networks in BC cells. Functional assays of BC cells were performed using transfection of mature miRNA or small interfering RNA (siRNA). Genome-wide gene expression analysis, in silico analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assays were applied to identify miRNA targets. The associations between the expression of miRNA and its targets and overall survival were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Gain-of-function studies showed that miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p significantly inhibited cell migration and invasion by BC cells. The matrix metalloprotease 11 gene (MMP11) was identified as a direct target of miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that higher expression of MMP11 predicted shorter survival of BC patients (P = 0.029). Downregulated miR-139-5p or miR-139-3p enhanced BC cell migration and invasion in BC cells. MMP11 was directly regulated by these miRNA and might be a good prognostic marker for survival of BC patients.

miR-196B-5P and miR-200B-3P Are Differentially Expressed in Medulloblastomas of Adults and Children.

Project description:Medulloblastoma is a highly aggressive brain tumor that typically affects children, while in adults it represents ~1% of all brain tumors. Little is known about microRNA expression profile of the rare adult medulloblastoma. The main aim of this study was to identify peculiar differences in microRNA expression between childhood and adult medulloblastoma. Medulloblastomas were profiled for microRNA expression using the Exiqon Human miRNome panel (I + II) analyzing 752 microRNAs in a training set of six adult and six childhood cases. Then, the most differentially expressed microRNAs were validated in a total of 21 adult and 19 childhood cases. Eight microRNAs (miR-196b-5p, miR-183-5p, miR-200b-3p, miR-196a-5p, miR-193a-3p, miR-29c-3p, miR-33b-5p, and miR-200a-3p) were differentially expressed in medulloblastoma of adults and children. Analysis of the validation set confirmed that miR-196b-5p and miR-200b-3p were significantly overexpressed in medulloblastoma of adults as compared with those of children. We followed an in silico approach to investigate direct targets and the pathways involved for the two microRNAs (miR-196b and miR-200b) differently expressed between adult and childhood medulloblastoma. Adult and childhood medulloblastoma have different miRNA expression profiles. In particular, the differential dysregulation of miR-196b-5p and miR-200b-3p characterizes the miRNA profile of adult medulloblastoma and suggests potential targets for novel diagnostic, prognostic, or therapeutic strategies.

Regulation of Oncogenic Targets by the Tumor-Suppressive miR-139 Duplex (miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p) in Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:We previously found that both the guide and passenger strands of the miR-139 duplex (miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p, respectively) were downregulated in cancer tissues. Analysis of TCGA datasets revealed that low expression of miR-139-5p (p < 0.0001) and miR-139-3p (p < 0.0001) was closely associated with 5-year survival rates of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Ectopic expression assays showed that miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p acted as tumor-suppressive miRNAs in RCC cells. Here, 19 and 22 genes were identified as putative targets of miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p in RCC cells, respectively. Among these genes, high expression of PLXDC1, TET3, PXN, ARHGEF19, ELK1, DCBLD1, IKBKB, and CSF1 significantly predicted shorter survival in RCC patients according to TCGA analyses (p < 0.05). Importantly, the expression levels of four of these genes, PXN, ARHGEF19, ELK1, and IKBKB, were independent prognostic factors for patient survival (p < 0.05). We focused on PXN (paxillin) and investigated its potential oncogenic role in RCC cells. PXN knockdown significantly inhibited cancer cell migration and invasion, possibly by regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Involvement of the miR-139-3p passenger strand in RCC molecular pathogenesis is a new concept. Analyses of tumor-suppressive-miRNA-mediated molecular networks provide important insights into the molecular pathogenesis of RCC.

Hsa_circ_0003645 Promotes Breast Cancer Progression by Regulating miR-139-3p/HMGB1 Axis.

Project description:Background:The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of over-expressing circular RNA (circ_0003645) on cell functions and its molecular mechanism in breast cancer. Methods:The expression profile of circ_0003645, breast cancer cell lines, and the transcription levels of circular RNA, miRNA and HMGB1 gene were detected by qRT-PCR. Flow cytometry analysis was manipulated to evaluate cancer cell proliferation and cell apoptosis. The correlation between miR-139p-3p and circular_0003645 or HMGB1 was predicted by GEO, and TCGA was confirmed using the dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results:Circ_0003645 expression was conspicuously increased in both the breast cancer tissues and cell lines. Circ_0003645 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation and induced the apoptosis of breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. By sponging miR-139-3p, circ_0003645 promoted the breast cancer cells progression and positively regulated HMGB1 gene. Conclusion:Circ_0003645 functions as a ceRNA for miR-139-3p, which could upregulate HMGB1 and further promote cell proliferation in breast cancer.

Regulation of UGT2A1 by miR-196a-5p and miR-196b-5p.

Project description:UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2A1 is an important enzyme in the detoxification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons found in cigarette smoke. This enzyme is expressed in aerodigestive tract tissues including lung as both its wild-type and exon 4-deleted splice variant isoforms, with the latter acting as a negative regulator of wild-type UGT2A1 activity. UGT2A1 regulation may also be mediated by microRNA (miRNA). To identify miRNA important in the regulation of UGT2A1, expression analysis in tandem with in silico analysis suggested miR-196a-5p and miR-196b-5p as potential top candidates. Significant reductions in firefly luciferase activity were observed in human embryonic kidney cell line 293 cells cotransfected with the wild-type UGT2A1 3'-untranslated region (UTR)-containing luciferase plasmid and either miR-196a-5p (62%, P = 0.00080) or miR-196b-5p (60%, P = 0.00030) mimics. In pull-down assays, there was a 3.4- and 5.2-fold increase in miR-196a-5p (P = 0.054) and miR-196b-5p (P = 0.035), respectively, using the UGT2A1 3'-UTR biotinylated mRNA probe as compared with the β-actin coding region control mRNA probe. UGT2A1 mRNA was reduced by 25% (P = 0.058) and 35% (P = 0.023) in H146 and H1944 cells, respectively, after overexpression of the miR196a-5p mimic. A similar 32% (P = 0.030) and 41% (P = 0.016) reduction was observed after over-expression of the miR-196b-5p mimic. In H146 cells transfected with miRNA mimic together with a small interfering RNA (siRNA) specific for the UGT2A1 splice variant, a significant reduction in 3-hydroxy-benzo[a]pyrene-glucuronide formation was observed. The miR-196a-5p- and miR-196b-55p-treated cells exhibited reductions of 35% (P = 0.047) and 44% (P = 0.0063), respectively. These data suggest that miR-196a-5p and miR-196b-5p play an important role in UGT2A1 regulation within the lung and potentially other aerodigestive tract tissues.

Exosome-derived miR-196b-5p facilitates intercellular interaction in infantile hemangioma via down-regulating CDKN1B.

Project description:BackgroundThough infantile hemangioma (IH) is a common benign vascular tumor, its pathogenesis remains unclear. This study explored the function of hemangioma-derived stem cells (HemSCs) derived exosomes, which exerted an intercellular effect on hemangioma-derived endothelial cells (HemECs).MethodsFirst, HemSCs and HemECs were extracted and cultured. HemSCs derived exosomes (HemSCs-exos) were harvested. miRNA sequencing and target prediction were used to explore differentially expressed miRNAs and potential binding targets. After HemECs were co-cultured with HemSCs-exos, a series of in vitro assays were then performed including cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, cell apoptosis assay, cell cycle assay and tube formation assay to evaluate proliferation, angiogenesis abilities, etc. qRT-PCR and Western blot were conducted to detect the expression level of target genes and proteins.ResultsAfter co-culturing with HemSCs-exos, proliferation, and angiogenesis abilities of HemECs were enhanced, while apoptosis and cell cycle arrest rate were decreased. MiR-196b-5p was observed to be significantly highly expressed in HemSCs-exos. CDKN1B was identified as the binding target of miR-196b-5p. HemECs' proliferation and angiogenesis abilities were elevated when co-cultured with exosomes from HemSCs transfected with miR-196b-5p mimic. In addition, apoptosis rate declined, and lower cells were arrested in G0/G1 phases. Cyclin E, bcl-2 were significantly highly expressed, whereas p27, Bax expression were significantly down-regulated. The positive effect of miR-196b-5p in HemSCs-exos was dramatically reversed when HemECs were transfected with oe-CDKN1B.ConclusionsThe current study found a novel intercellular interaction between IH cells. Briefly, exosome-derived miRNA-196b-5p in HemSCs could facilitate proliferation and angiogenesis abilities, and attenuate apoptosis and cell cycle repression rate of HemECs by directly binding with CDKN1B.

miR-486-3p, miR-139-5p, and miR-21 as Biomarkers for the Detection of Oral Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:Oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is a complex disease with extensive genetic and epigenetic defects, including microRNA deregulation. The aims of the present study were to test the feasibility of performing the microRNA profiling analysis on archived TSCC specimens and to assess the potential diagnostic utility of the identified microRNA biomarkers for the detection of TSCC. TaqMan array-based microRNA profiling analysis was performed on 10 archived TSCC samples and their matching normal tissues. A panel of 12 differentially expressed microRNAs was identified. Eight of these differentially expressed microRNAs were validated in an independent sample set. A random forest (RF) classification model was built with miR-486-3p, miR-139-5p, and miR-21, and it was able to detect TSCC with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 86.7% (overall error rate = 6.7%). As such, this study demonstrated the utility of the archived clinical specimens for microRNA biomarker discovery. The feasibility of using microRNA biomarkers (miR-486-3p, miR-139-5p, and miR-21) for the detection of TSCC was confirmed.

Impact of Oncogenic Targets by Tumor-Suppressive miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p Regulation in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:We newly generated an RNA-sequencing-based microRNA (miRNA) expression signature of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Analysis of the signature revealed that both strands of some miRNAs, including miR-139-5p (the guide strand) and miR-139-3p (the passenger strand) of miR-139, were downregulated in HNSCC tissues. Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas confirmed the low expression levels of miR-139 in HNSCC. Ectopic expression of these miRNAs attenuated the characteristics of cancer cell aggressiveness (e.g., cell proliferation, migration, and invasion). Our in silico analyses revealed a total of 28 putative targets regulated by pre-miR-139 (miR-139-5p and miR-139-3p) in HNSCC cells. Of these, the GNA12 (guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit alpha-12) and OLR1 (oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1) expression levels were identified as independent factors that predicted patient survival according to multivariate Cox regression analyses (p = 0.0018 and p = 0.0104, respectively). Direct regulation of GNA12 and OLR1 by miR-139-3p in HNSCC cells was confirmed through luciferase reporter assays. Moreover, overexpression of GNA12 and OLR1 was detected in clinical specimens of HNSCC through immunostaining. The involvement of miR-139-3p (the passenger strand) in the oncogenesis of HNSCC is a new concept in cancer biology. Our miRNA-based strategy will increase knowledge on the molecular pathogenesis of HNSCC.
