The mir-423-5p/MMP-2 Axis Regulates the Nerve Growth Factor-Induced Promotion of Chondrosarcoma Metastasis.

ABSTRACT: A chondrosarcoma is a common tumor of the soft tissue and bone that has a high propensity to metastasize to distant organs. Nerve growth factor (NGF) is capable of promoting the progression and metastasis of several different types of tumors although the effects of NGF in a chondrosarcoma are not confirmed. Here, we found that the levels of NGF and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) correlated with the tumor stage in patients with a chondrosarcoma. NGF facilitated the MMP-2-dependent cellular migration in human chondrosarcoma JJ012 cells while the overexpression of NGF enhanced the lung metastasis in a mouse model of a chondrosarcoma. NGF promoted the MMP-2 synthesis and cell migration by inhibiting miR-423-5p expression through the FAK and c-Src signaling cascades. NGF appears to be a worthwhile therapeutic target in the treatment of a metastatic chondrosarcoma.

MiR-423-5p prevents MALAT1-mediated proliferation and metastasis in prostate cancer.

Project description:BackgroundThe long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), MALAT1, plays a key role in the development of different cancers, and its expression is associated with worse prognosis in patients. However, its mechanism of action and its regulation are not well known in prostate cancer (PCa). A general mechanism of action of lncRNAs is their interaction with other epigenetic regulators including microRNAs (miRNAs).MethodsUsing lentiviral stable miRNA transfection together with cell biology functional assays and gene expression/target analysis, we investigated the interaction between MALAT1 and miR-423-5p, defined as a target with in silico prediction analysis, in PCa.ResultsThrough bioinformatic analysis of data available from TCGA, we have found that MALAT1 expression correlates with high Gleason grade, metastasis occurrence, and reduced survival in PCa patients. These findings were validated on a TMA of PCa showing a significant correlation between MALAT1 expression with both stage and grading. We report that, in PCa cells, MALAT1 expression and activity is regulated by miR-423-5p that binds MALAT1, downregulates its expression and inhibits its activity in promoting proliferation, migration, and invasion. Using NanoString analysis, we unraveled downstream cell pathways that were affected by miR-423-5p expression and MALAT1 downregulation and identified several alterations in genes that are involved in metastatic response and angiogenic pathways. In addition, we showed that the overexpression of miR-423-5p increases survival and decreases metastases formation in a xenograft mouse model.ConclusionsWe provide evidence on the role of MALAT1 in PCa tumorigenesis and progression. Also, we identify a direct interaction between miR-423-5p and MALAT1, which results in the suppression of MALAT1 action in PCa.

MiR-423-5p in brain metastasis: potential role in diagnostics and molecular biology.

Project description:During the last several years, a growing number of studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in cancer metastasis. Brain metastasis (BM) is a frequent complication of lung adenocarcinoma (LAD), and the incidence of locally advanced LAD with BM can be as high as 30-50%. This study was performed to identify the miRNA expression patterns of LAD with BM and to determine the biological role that miRNAs play in tumorigenesis. To this end, we conducted microarray and quantitative PCR analyses to evaluate BM-related miRNAs independently validated from a total of 155 patients with LAD. A series of in vivo and in vitro assays were also conducted to verify the impact of miRNAs on BM. We found significantly increased expression of miR-423-5p, and BM was predicted in non-small cell lung cancer when compared to LAD without BM. We next examined the function of miR-423-5p and discovered that it significantly promoted colony formation, cell motility, migration, and invasion in vitro. We computationally and experimentally confirmed that metastasis suppressor 1 (MTSS1) was a direct miR-423-5p target. Through a combination of image, histological, and molecular analyses, we found that miR-423-5p overexpression significantly increased tumor burden, local invasion, and distant BM. The level of MTSS1 expression was inversely correlated with miR-423-5p upregulation in the LAD specimens and was associated with survival of patients with BM. MiR-423-5p promoted BM in LAD and inhibited MTSS1 expression. Together, these results show that MiR-423-5p has the potential to be a marker of BM and/or a therapeutic target in LAD.

LINC00943 regulates miR-1252-5p/YWHAH axis to promote tumor proliferation and metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor worldwide. In recent years, the incidence of lung adenocarcinoma (LAD) has increased significantly, with an unfavorable 5-year survival rate. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play a significant role in the emergence, growth, and metastasis of tumors. However, the functional role and mechanism of LINC00943 in LAD progression have not yet been investigated. Aberrant expressions of LINC00943, miR-1252-5p, and YWHAH were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot analyses. The binding relationship between miR-1252-5p and LINC00943 or YWHAH was examined by Pearson's correlation analysis, RNA pull-down, and dual-luciferase reporter assays. MTT assay was conducted to measure cell viability and colony formation assay was performed to evaluate cell proliferation potential. Transwell assay was used to investigate cell migration and invasion and flow cytometry was applied to evaluate cell apoptosis. We found that LINC00943 was highly expressed in LAD tissue samples and cell lines and was a reliable biomarker with high sensitivity, and specificity (P < 0.0001; AUC: 0.8966) for LAD detection. LINC00943 was mainly localized in the cytoplasm. In vitro, LINC00943 promoted LAD cell proliferation, migration, and invasion; however, silencing LINC00943 inhibited LAD tumor metastasis. Mechanistically, LINC00943 was competitively bound with miR-1252-5p to enhance YWHAH expression. Moreover, LINC00943 silencing sponged miR-1252-5p to inhibit YWHAH, thereby retraining LAD cell malignant behaviors. In summary, LINC00943 facilitates LAD cell malignancy through sponging miR-1252-5p to upregulate YWHAH. LINC00943 is a novel lncRNA that serves as an oncogene and might be used as a prognostic biomarker for LAD.

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.

MIR210HG regulates glycolysis, cell proliferation, and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells through miR-125b-5p/HK2/PKM2 axis.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer has the worst prognosis of all common cancers. Pancreatic cancer cells have a metabolic advantage due to their swiftly adaptive responses to hypoxic and low-nutrient medium. This advantage contributes to the aggressivity of pancreatic cancer. In this study, lncRNA MIR210HG was abnormally upregulated within pancreatic cancer. It acted as a key oncogenic regulator of pancreatic cancer aggressiveness and glycolysis. Knockdown of MIR210HG significantly inhibited the aggressive phenotype of pancreatic cancer cells and inhibited the growth of xenograft tumours. More importantly, MIR210HG knockdown inhibited pancreatic cancer cell glycolysis via regulating the glycolysis-related hexokinase 2 (HK2) and Pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme M2 (PKM2) expression. Compared with the MIR210HG knockdown group, miR-125b-5p inhibition promoted the aggressive phenotypes and glycolysis of pancreatic cancer cells. Furthermore, the effects of MIR210HG knockdown on HK2 and PKM2 expression, pancreatic cancer cell aggressive phenotypes, and glycolysis were significantly reversed by miR-125b-5p inhibition. In tissue samples, MIR210HG expression was negatively correlated with miR-125b-5p levels and positively correlated with HK2 and PKM2 expression. miR-125b-5p expression was negatively correlated with HK2 and PKM2 expression. In conclusion, MIR210HG affected the phenotypes of pancreatic cancer cells, including proliferation, invasion, migration, and glycolysis, via modulating the miR-125b-5p/HK2/PKM2 axis.

Circ_0084043-miR-134-5p axis regulates PCDH9 to suppress melanoma.

Project description:The low survival rates, poor responses, and drug resistance of patients with melanoma make it urgent to find new therapeutic targets. This study investigated whether the circ_0084043-miR-134-5p axis regulates the antitumor effect of protocadherin 9 (PCDH9) in melanoma. Ectopic expression or knock down (KD) of PCDH9 with a lentivirus vector, we explored its effects on the proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis of melanoma and verified its regulatory effect on ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (RAC1), proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2), Cyclin D1, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), and MMP9. We further observed the effect of KD circ_0084043 on the malignant behavior of melanoma and studied whether circ_0084043 sponged miR-134-5p and regulated PCDH9. We found that circ_0084043 was overexpressed in melanoma and associated with the malignant phenotype. PCDH9 was poorly expressed in human melanoma tissues, and overexpression of PCDH9 inhibited melanoma progression. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting results showed that overexpression of PCDH9 could downregulate RAC1, MMP2, and MMP9 and upregulate Pyk2 and Cyclin D1. Circ_0084043 KD inhibited invasion and promoted apoptosis in melanoma cells. Circ_0084043 could sponge miR-134-5p and thus indirectly regulate PCDH9. Furthermore, we discovered that inhibiting circ_0084043 had an anti-PD-Ll effect. In vivo, PCDH9 overexpression inhibited melanoma tumor growth, but PCDH9 KD promoted it. In conclusion, PCDH9, which is regulated by the circ 0084043-miR-134-5p axis, can suppress malignant biological behavior in melanoma and influence the expression levels of Pyk2, RAC1, Cyclin D1, MMP2, and MMP9.

hsa_circ_0084811 Regulates Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis in Retinoblastoma through miR-18a-5p/miR-18b-5p/E2F5 Axis.

Project description:BackgroundRetinoblastoma (RB) is the commonest primary intraocular malignancy during childhood. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) act as regulators in RB development, and hsa_circ_E2F5 (circ_0084811 in this study) was found to be highly expressed in RB cells, so we wanted to identify its detailed molecular mechanism.MethodsThe expression level of circ_0084811 in RB cells was tested by RT-qPCR and its effects on RB cells were evaluated through functional assays. The regulatory mechanism that circ_0084811 may exert in RB progression was testified through mechanism experiments.ResultsHigh circ_0084811 expression in RB cells facilitated cell proliferation but inhibited cell apoptosis. The enrichment of acetylation of histone 3 lysine 27 (H3K27ac) in circ_0084811 promoter induced circ_0084811 upregulation. Moreover, circ_0084811 regulated E2F transcription factor 5 (E2F5) expression via sponging microRNA-18a-5p (miR-18a-5p) and microRNA-18b-5p (miR-18b-5p).Conclusioncirc_0084811 modulated RB progression via the miR-18a-5p/miR-18b-5p/E2F5 axis.

Differential circulating miRNA profiles identified miR-423-5p, miR-93-5p, and miR-4532 as potential biomarkers for cholangiocarcinoma diagnosis.

Project description:BackgroundCholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is high in morbidity and mortality rates which may be due to asymptomatic and effective diagnostic methods not available. Therefore, an effective diagnosis is urgently needed.MethodsInvestigation of plasma circulating miRNA (cir-miRNA) was divided into two phases, including the discovery phase (pooled 10 samples each from three pools in each group) and the validation phase (17, 16, and 35 subjects of healthy control (HC), O. viverrini (OV), and CCA groups, respectively). The plasma from healthy control subjects, O. viverrini infected subjects, and CCA subjects was used. In the discovery phase, plasma was pooled by adding an equal volume of plasma, and cir-miRNA was isolated and analyzed with the nCounter® SPRINT Profiler. The significantly different cir-miRNAs were selected for the validation phase. In the validation phase, cir-miRNA was isolated and analyzed using real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Subsequently, statistical analysis was conducted, and diagnostic parameters were calculated.ResultsDifferential plasma cir-miRNA profile showed at least three candidates including miR-423-5p, miR-93-5p, and miR-4532 as potential biomarkers. From validation of these cir-miRNAs by RT-qPCR, the result showed that the satisfied sensitivity and specificity to differential CCA group from HC and OV group was obtained from miR-4532 (P < 0.05) while miR-423-5p and miR-93-5p can be used for differential CCA from OV and HC group (P < 0.05) with high specificity but limited the sensitivity. In conclusion, candidate cir-miRNAs have been identified as potential biomarkers including miR-423-5p, miR-93-5p and miR-4532. Screening by miR-4532 and confirmed with miR-423-5p, miR-93-5p were suggested for differential CCA patients in the endemic area of O. viverrini.

miR-181b-5p/SOCS2/JAK2/STAT5 axis facilitates the metastasis of hepatoblastoma.

Project description:IntroductionHepatoblastoma (HB) is a malignant liver tumor predominantly found in children and tumor metastasis is one of the main causes of poor prognosis in affected patients. The precise molecular mechanisms responsible for HB metastasis remain incompletely understood. However, there is evidence suggesting a connection between the dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) and the progression of tumor metastasis in HB.MethodsThe study utilized weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to analyze a miRNA microarray dataset of HB. The expression of miR-181b-5p in HB tissues and cells was detected using quantitative real-time PCR. The impact of miR-181b-5p on the metastatic capacity of HB was evaluated through scratch and Transwell assays. The effects of exogenously expressing miR-181b on the metastatic phenotypes of HB cells were evaluated in vivo. Furthermore, a luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate a potential target of miR-181b-5p in HB.ResultsWe found that miR-181b-5p was highly expressed in HB tissues and HB cell lines. Overexpression of miR-181b enhanced scratch healing, cell migration, and invasion abilities in vitro, as well as enhancing HB lung metastasis potential in vivo. Dual-luciferase reporter assays showed that Suppressor Of Cytokine Signaling 2 (SOCS2) was a direct target of miR-181b. The overexpression of miR-181b resulted in the suppression of SOCS2 expression, subsequently activating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathways. The rescue experiment showed that SOCS2 overexpression attenuated the effects of miR-181b on HB cells.ConclusionOur study showed that miR-181b promotes HB metastasis by targeting SOCS2 and may be a potential therapeutic target for HB.

miR-497-5p-RSPO2 axis inhibits cell growth and metastasis in glioblastoma.

Project description:Numerous studies have found a relationship between cancer formation and aberrant microRNA expression, however the biological significance of miR-497-5p in glioblastoma (GBM) is still unknown. Compared to normal brain glial cells, miR-497-5p expression in GBM tissues was substantially lower in our study. The microRNA miR-497-5p targets R-spondin 2 (RSPO2) only when it is present. RSPO2 silencing has the same effect on GBM cells as miR-497-5p silencing, as demonstrated before. Additional mechanistic investigations have shown that miR-497-5p suppresses the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by targeting RSPO2 to reduce cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. A negative correlation was discovered between MiR-497-5p and RSPO2 in 37 of the GBM tumors studied. MiR-497-5p-RSPO2 axis controls Wnt/β-catenin signaling and plays a function in GBM carcinogenesis, suggesting that it may be a therapeutic target to reduce GBM growth, as shown by our research findings.
