YY1-modulated long non-coding RNA SNHG12 promotes gastric cancer metastasis by activating the miR-218-5p/YWHAZ axis.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 12 (SNHG12) plays important roles in the pathogenesis and progression of cancers. However, the role of SNHG12 in the metastasis of gastric cancer (GC) has not yet been thoroughly investigated. In the present study, we demonstrated that SNHG12 was upregulated in GC tissues and cell lines. In addition, the expression level of SNHG12 in GC samples was significantly related to tumor invasion depth, TNM stage and lymph node metastasis and was associated with disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in GC patients. In vivo and in vitro assays indicated that SNHG12 promotes GC metastasis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Bioinformatics and mechanistic analyses revealed that SNHG12 can directly target miR-218-5p to regulate YWHAZ mRNA, forming an SNHG12/miR-218-5p/YWHAZ axis and decreasing the ubiquitination of β-catenin. In addition, SNHG12 stabilizes CTNNB1 mRNA by binding with HuR, thus activating the β-catenin signaling pathway. Further analysis also revealed that the transcription factor YY1 negatively modulates SNHG12 transcription. In conclusion, SNHG12 is a potential prognostic marker and therapeutic target for GC. Negatively modulated by YY1, SNHG12 promotes GC metastasis and EMT by regulating the miR-218-5p/YWHAZ axis and stabilizing CTNNB1 via activation of the β-catenin signaling pathway.

Long Non-Coding RNA TRIM52-AS1 Promotes Growth and Metastasis via miR-218-5p/ROBO1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant disease with a high mortality among primary HCC patients worldwide. Lots of studies have shown that lncRNAs are known as the biomarkers in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, clarifying the detailed function and mechanism of the lncRNA in the HCC progressing seems particularly important.MethodsThe TCGA and GEO database and RT-qPCR were used to analyse the expression of TRIM52-AS1 in HCC tissues and cell lines. Clinical data were collected to further analyze the correlation between indicators of clinical samples and the expression of TRIM52-AS1. CCK-8, plate clone and transwell assays were employed to evaluate the role of TRIM52-AS1 on cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Then, bioinformatics prediction, luciferase reporter, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and RT-qPCR were employed to analyze the direct interaction among TRIM52-AS1, miR-218-5p and ROBO1. Additionally, the rescue function assays were used to verify that miR-218-5p/ROBO1 was the function downstream of TRIM52-AS1.ResultsTRIM52-AS1 was overexpressed in HCC according to the TCGA database and RT-qPCR assay. The expression of TRIM52-AS1 was higher in the metastatic foci compared with primary tumor according to the GEO database. Additionally, TRIM52-AS1 knockdown inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of HCC cells. TRIM52-AS1 could act as competitive endogenous RNA to regulate ROBO1 through miR-218-5p, then promoted the HCC cell progression.ConclusionTRIM52-AS1 is overexpressed in HCC and can promote the proliferation and metastasis of HCC cells through miR-218-5p/ROBO1 axis, then drives the HCC cell progression.

The YY1/miR-548t-5p/CXCL11 signaling axis regulates cell proliferation and metastasis in human pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a malignant tumor with a poor prognosis and high mortality. However, the biological role of miR-548t-5p in PC has not been reported. In this study, we found that miR-548t-5p expression was significantly decreased in PC tissues compared with adjacent tissues, and that low miR-548t-5p expression was associated with malignant PC behavior. In addition, high miR-548t-5p expression inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of PC cell lines. Regarding the molecular mechanism, the luciferase reporter gene, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), and functional recovery assays revealed that YY1 binds to the miR-548t-5p promoter and positively regulates the expression and function of miR-548t-5p. miR-548t-5p also directly regulates CXCL11 to inhibit its expression. A high level of CXCL11 was associated with worse Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM) staging in patients with PC, enhancing proliferation and metastasis in PC cells. Our study shows that the YY1/miR-548t-5p/CXCL11 axis plays an important role in PC and provides a new potential candidate for the treatment of PC.

The Multifunction Of miR-218-5p-Cx43 Axis In Breast Cancer.

Project description:BackgroundGemcitabine is proven to be the first-line standard treatment of breast cancers. Yet, little is known involving gemcitabine resistance and remains largely to be elucidated.Materials and methodsWe evaluated the expression of Cx43 in gemcitabine-resistant cells and parental cells by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analyses. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was applied to examine the epigenetic regulator of Cx43. The role of miR-218-5p-Cx43 axis on cell cytotoxicity, cell proliferation, colony formation, chemoresistance and migration was detected via mammalian expression vector and small short RNA (shRNA) transfection in vitro.ResultsIn this study, we found that Cx43 expression levels were significantly lower in gemcitabine-resistant cells than in the parental cells. On deep investigation of the epigenetic regulation of Cx43, a few miRNA candidates targeting Cx43 were derived. Through dual-luciferase reporter assay, Cx43 was proved to be a direct target of miR-218-5p. Besides, qPCR, Western blot demonstrated an inverse correlation between miR-218-5p and Cx43 expression in breast cancer cells, thus forming the miR-218-5p-Cx43 axis. Notably, miR-218-5p-Cx43 axis was found to be involved in the process of gemcitabine chemoresistance, cell proliferation and migration in breast cancer cells.ConclusionOur findings suggested that miR-218-5p-Cx43 axis was versatile and indicated significant potency in breast cancer cells. More importantly, miR-218-5p-Cx43 axis might be valuable in translational medicine, with therapeutic and prognostic information.

Tumor protein D52 promotes breast cancer proliferation and migration via the long non-coding RNA NEAT1/microRNA-218-5p axis.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer is an aggressive disease with high morbidity and mortality rates among women globally. Tumor protein D52 (TPD52) is an oncogene in breast cancer; however, its physiological function remains elusive. This study set out to obtain a deeper understanding of the functions of TPD52 in the pathophysiology of breast cancer by exploring its effects on breast cancer cell proliferation and migration.MethodsBioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the bonding of TPD52 and nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) with miR-218-5p. The bonding of TPD52 and NEAT1 with miR-218-5p were verified by luciferase reporter assays. The mRNA expression of TPD52, miR-218-5p or NEAT1 were tested by Rt-qPCR and the protein expression of TPD52 was tested by western blot. Colony formation and EdU assays were carried out to evaluate cell proliferation. Wound healing and Transwell assays were used to evaluate migration.ResultsIn this study, TPD52 was upregulated in breast cancer cells, and silencing of TPD52 repressed the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Further, microRNA (miR)-218-5p reduced the expression level of TPD52, while overexpression of TPD52 attenuated the effects of miR-218-5p mimics on breast cancer cell proliferation and migration. Also, NEAT1 acted as a competitive endogenous sponge of miR-218-5p to downregulate free miR-218-5p levels. It was further observed that TPD52 overexpression recovered the inhibition of breast cancer cell growth and migration caused by NEAT1 downregulation. These results confirmed the functions of NEAT1 in breast cancer and supported the mechanism of the NEAT1/miR-218-5p/TPD52 axis.ConclusionsOur findings highlight the important role of the NEAT1/miR-218-5p/TPD52 axis in breast cancer cell proliferation and migration. This axis may be a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer.

SNHG12 inhibits oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced neuronal apoptosis via the miR-181a-5p/NEGR1 axis

Project description:Emerging evidence has indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are closely associated with the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. It has been reported that small nucleolar RNA host gene 12 (SNHG12) serves a critical role in ischemic stroke by acting as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA). SNHG12 competes with various microRNAs (miRs) to regulate RNA transcription of specific targets. However, the effect of SNHG12 on oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced neuronal apoptosis has rarely been reported. The present study demonstrated that SNHG12 expression was downregulated in OGD-injured SH-SY5Y cells. Furthermore, miR-181a-5p was reported as a target of SNHG12 and was negatively regulated by SNHG12. Moreover, NEGR1 was a target of miR-181a-5p, which functions as a negative regulator of NEGR1 in OGD-induced neuronal apoptosis. In summary, the results strongly confirmed the hypothesis that SNHG12 functions as a ceRNA for miR-181a-5p and regulates the expression of NEGR1 thus inhibiting OGD-induced apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells. Neuronal apoptosis aggravates brain damage during ischemic stroke, indicating that the activation of SNHG12 and NEGR1 expression and inhibition of miR-181a-5p may be a novel strategy for the clinical treatment of ischemic stroke.

Long non-coding RNA GAS5 suppresses pancreatic cancer metastasis through modulating miR-32-5p/PTEN axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (lncRNA GAS5) is a well-known tumor suppressor in the pathogenesis of a variety of human cancers. The precise role of GAS5 in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression is currently unknown, so the aim of this study was to explore the functional participation of GAS5 in PC metastasis.MethodsThe expression changes of GAS5, miR-32-5p and PTEN in human PC specimens and cell lines were compared by means of molecular biology methods. Transfection of the recombinant plasmid was applied to modulate the expression levels of the target genes. RIP and RNA pull-down assays were designed to investigate the interaction between GAS5 and miR-32-5p. The effect of GAS5 and miR-32-5p on PC progression was assessed with cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis in vitro.ResultsGAS5 and PTEN protein were decreased in human PC tissues and cells, but miR-32-5p was increased. GAS5 induction greatly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells PANC-1 and BxPC-3 in vitro and simultaneously induced cell apoptosis. Moreover, GAS5 positively regulated the expression of PTEN through miR-32-5p. Furthermore, GAS5 suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells through regulating miR-32-5p/PTEN axis. Additionally, this finding was further supported by the results of in vivo experiments.ConclusionGAS5 could positively regulate PTEN-induced tumor-suppressor pathway via miR-32-5p, thereby suppressing PC metastasis.

Long Non-Coding RNA CRYBG3 Promotes Lung Cancer Metastasis via Activating the eEF1A1/MDM2/MTBP Axis.

Project description:The occurrence of distant tumor metastases is a major barrier in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) therapy, and seriously affects clinical treatment and patient prognosis. Recently, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to be crucial regulators of metastasis in lung cancer. The aim of this study was to reveal the underlying mechanisms of a novel lncRNA LNC CRYBG3 in regulating NSCLC metastasis. Experimental results showed that LNC CRYBG3 was upregulated in NSCLC cells compared with normal tissue cells, and its level was involved in these cells' metastatic ability. Exogenously overexpressed LNC CRYBG3 increased the metastatic ability and the protein expression level of the metastasis-associated proteins Snail and Vimentin in low metastatic lung cancer HCC827 cell line. In addition, LNC CRYBG3 contributed to HCC827 cell metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, LNC CRYBG3 could directly combine with eEF1A1 and promote it to move into the nucleus to enhance the transcription of MDM2. Overexpressed MDM2 combined with MDM2 binding protein (MTBP) to reduce the binding of MTBP with ACTN4 and consequently increased cell migration mediated by ACTN4. In conclusion, the LNC CRYBG3/eEF1A1/MDM2/MTBP axis is a novel signaling pathway regulating tumor metastasis and may be a potential therapeutic target for NSCLC treatment.

miR-218-5p restores sensitivity to gemcitabine through PRKCE/MDR1 axis in gallbladder cancer.

Project description:Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is one of the most common malignancy of the biliary tract characterized by its high chemoresistant tendency. Although great progresses have been made in recent decades for treating many cancers with anticancer drugs, effective therapeutics methods for anti-GBC are still lacking. Therefore, investigations into identifying the mechanisms underlying the drug resistance of GBC are greatly needed. In this study, we show that miR-218-5p plays a critical role in gemcitabine resistance of GBC. miR-218-5p levels were significantly lower in GBC than adjacent non-cancer tissues, and which were also associated with patient prognosis. While miR-218-5p overexpression abrogated gemcitabine resistance of GBC cells, silencing of which exhibited the opposite effects. Via six microRNA targets prediction algorithms, we found that PRKCE is a potential target of miR-218-5p. Moreover, miR-218-5p overexpression repressed the luciferase activity of reporter constructs containing 3'-UTR of PRKCE and also reduced PRKCE expression. Further studies revealed that miR-218-5p promotes sensitivity of gemcitabine by abolishing PRKCE-induced upregulation of MDR1/P-gp. Taken together, our results imply that an intimate correlation between miR-218-5p and PRKCE/MDR1 axis abnormal expression is a key determinant of gemcitabine tolerance, and suggest a novel miR-218-5p-based clinical intervention target for GBC patients.

Long non coding RNA OIP5?AS1 promotes metastasis of breast cancer via miR?340?5p/ZEB2 axis.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in women with the highest number of related deaths which is caused by distal metastasis. Recently, integrated analysis of gene expression profile suggested widespread gene dysregulation in various types of cancer. Research in the past decade has focused on long non?coding RNAs (lncRNAs), particularly in cell proliferation, tumor progression and metastasis. OPA?interacting protein 5 antisense transcript 1 (OIP5?AS1) is an evolutionarily conserved long non?coding RNA that has been linked to oncogenesis in multiple cancers. In breast cancer, dysregulation of OIP5?AS1 was reported but the precise role in cancer development and progression remains unclear. In the present study, using small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting OIP5?AS1, it was shown that knockdown of OIP5?AS1 was associated with alteration of EMT markers and suppressed migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. Among the EMT?related transcription factors, ZEB1 and ZEB2 were significantly downregulated with OIP5?AS1 knockdown. Computational analysis and a dual?luciferase reporter system identified miR?340?5p was the target gene for OIP5?AS1. Further experiments verified the function of OIP5?AS1 in cell invasion was dependent on miR?340a?5p through regulating target gene ZEB2. In vivo study demonstrated that overexpressing OIP5?AS1 in breast cancer cells promoted lung metastasis in nude mice. The findings of the present study revealed the mechanism of OIP5?AS1 in breast cancer metastasis. Overall, our study may provide a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer metastasis.
