LncRNA KCNQ1OT1 regulates the invasion and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma by acting on S1PR1 through miR-149.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 on HCC and to explore the possible underlying mechanisms. The expression levels of KCNQ1OT1, miR-149 and S1PR1 were detected by qRT-PCR assay. A dual luciferase reporter assay was used to detect the interaction between KCNQ1OT1 and miR-149, as well as miR-149 and S1PR1. The interaction between KCNQ1OT1 and miR-149 was further investigated by RNA pull-down assay. Wound healing assays and Transwell assays were carried out to determine cell migration and invasion. A xenograft tumour assay was used to validate the role of KCNQ1OT1 in vivo. KCNQ1OT1 and S1PR1 were significantly increased, but miR-149 was decreased in HCC cells. Luciferase reporter assays and RNA pull-down assays revealed that KCNQ1OT1 directly targeted miR-149. In addition, miR-149 bound to the 3'-UTR of S1PR1. Knockdown of KCNQ1OT1 or overexpression of miR-149 inhibited the invasion and migration of HCC cells. However, suppression of miR-149 could abrogate the effect of KCNQ1OT1 knockdown on the invasion and migration abilities of HCC cells. In vivo assays showed that KCNQ1OT1 knockdown suppressed tumour growth. This work suggests that lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 might act as a potential therapeutic target in HCC.

LncRNA KCNQ1OT1 promotes cell proliferation, migration and invasion via regulating miR-129-5p/JAG1 axis in non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Background:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most deadly cancer worldwide. LncRNA KCNQ1OT1 has been reported to be involved in the progression of various tumors, including NSCLC. However, the precise mechanism of KCNQ1OT1 in NSCLC requires further investigation. Methods:The expression levels of KCNQ1OT1, miR-129-5p and JAG1 were detected by qRT-PCR or western blot. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess the correlation between KCNQ1OT1 expression and the overall survival of NSCLC patients. CCK-8 assay was used to measure cell viability. Cell migration and invasion were detected by transwell assay. The targets of KCNQ1OT1 and miR-129-5p were predicted by bioinformatics, which was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay or pull-down assay. Results:KCNQ1OT1 expression was significantly enhanced, while miR-129-5p expression was dramatically reduced in NSCLC tissues and cells. Higher KCNQ1OT1 shortened overall survival and was positively associated with tumor stage and lymph node metastasis. KCNQ1OT1 knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC cells. Inhibition of miR-129-5p attenuated the inhibition of NSCLC cell viability, migration and invasion induced by KCNQ1OT1 knockdown. In addition, JAG1 was confirmed as a target of miR-129-5p. Knockdown of JAG1 reversed the effects of miR-129-5p knockdown on NSCLC progression. KCNQ1OT1 regulated JAG1 expression by sponging miR-129-5p in NSCLC cells. Conclusion:KCNQ1OT1 induced proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC cells by sponging miR-129-5p and regulating JAG1 expression, indicating that KCNQ1OT1 was a therapeutic target for NSCLC.

LncRNA GACAT1 induces tongue squamous cell carcinoma migration and proliferation via miR-149.

Project description:Recent studies have observed that lncRNAs (long non-coding RNAs) are involved in the progression of various tumours including tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC). Recently, a new lnRNA, GACAT1, has been firstly identified in gastric cancer. However, its potential role in TSCC remains unknown. In this reference, we observed that GACAT1 was overexpressed in TSCC samples and cell lines. Of 25 TSCC specimens, GACAT1 expression was overexpressed in 18 patients (18/25, 72%) compared to non-tumour specimens. Ectopic expression of GACAT1 induced cell growth and migration and promoted epithelial to mesenchymal transition in TSCC. In addition, ectopic expression of GACAT1 decreased miR-149 expression in SCC1 cell. We observed that miR-149 expression was down-regulated in TSCC cell lines. Moreover, we observed that GACAT1 expression was negatively correlated with miR-149 expression. GACAT1 overexpression induced TSCC cell growth and migration via regulating miR-149 expression. These data provided that GACAT1 played an oncogenic role in the progression of TSCC partly through modulating miR-149 expression.

[LncRNA LINC00342 regulates gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting miR-596].

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the expression levels of LINC00342 in gastric cancer (GC) tissues and cells and the pathways mediating its effects on biological behaviors of GC cells.MethodsBioinformatic analysis was performed to identify the lncRNAs and their downstream miRNAs involved in regulation of biological behaviors of GC cells. qRT-PCR was used to analyze the differential expression of LINC00342 and miR-596 in GC cell lines, human gastric mucosal cells, and GC and adjacent tissues. In human GC MGC-803 and MGC-823 cells, the effects of LINC00342 overexpression, miR-596 overexpression, LINC00342 knockdown, or miR-596 knockdown on cell proliferation, migration, invasion and cell cycle changes were examined using Edu assay, CCK-8 assay, wound healing assay, Transwell assay, and flow cytometry. The regulatory interaction between LINC00342 and miR-596 was investigated using a dual-luciferase reporter assay.ResultsInformatic analysis identified LINC00342 as the candidate lncRNA regulating biological behaviors of GC cells, with miR-596 as its downstream miRNA. LINC00342 expression levels were significantly higher while miR-596 expression levels were lower in GC tissues and cell lines than in the paired adjacent tissues and human gastric mucosal cell lines (all P<0.05). In MGC-803 and MGC-823 cells, overexpression of LINC00342 significantly enhanced cell proliferation (P<0.05), migration (P<0.01), and invasion (P<0.001) and reduced the percentage of G0/G1 phase cells (P<0.01), while knocking down LINC00342 significantly suppressed cell proliferation (P<0.05), migration (P<0.01), and invasion (P<0.001) and increased G0/G1 phase cell percentage (P<0.01). Modulation of miR-596 expression levels produced the opposite effects. Dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed the specific binding between LINC00342 and miR-596 (P=0.0067).ConclusionIn GC cells, LINC00342 regulates cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by targeting miR-596.

Long Non-Coding RNA PART1 Promotes Proliferation, Migration and Invasion of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells via miR-149-5p/MAP2K1 Axis.

Project description:BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary hepatic malignancy worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified as effective markers for the detection of multiple cancers. This study aimed to illuminate the mechanism of ?prostate ?androgen ?regulated ?transcript 1 (PART1) in HCC.Materials and MethodsThe levels of PART1, miR-149-5p and ?mitogen-activated ?protein ?kinase 1 (MAP2K1) mRNA were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, and cell migration and invasion were evaluated by transwell assay. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was carried out to examine the relationship among PART1, miR-149-5p and MAP2K1. Western blot assay was conducted to measure the protein expression of MAP2K1.ResultsPART1 and MAP2K1 expression were greatly increased and miR-149-5p level was decreased in HCC tissues. Functional analysis revealed that the si-PART1 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells. PART1 directly bound to miR-149-5p and miR-149-5p level was down-regulated by PART1. Moreover, restoration experiment demonstrated that the effect of PART1 knockdown on HCC cell progression could be partially rescued by miR-149-5p depletion. MiR-149-5p was predicted to target MAP2K1 and MAP2K1 expression was negatively modulated by miR-149-5p. Also, MAP2K1 rescued the inhibitory effects of miR-149-5p overexpression on proliferation, migration and invasion in HCC cells. Besides, the inhibition of miR-149-5p weakened the impact on MAP2K1 expression mediated by PART1 repression.ConclusionPART1 promoted proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells by regulating miR-149-5p/MAP2K1 axis.

LncRNA MIR22HG inhibits growth, migration and invasion through regulating the miR-10a-5p/NCOR2 axis in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Project description:Despite the rapidly identified numbers of lncRNA in humans, exploration of the molecular mechanisms of lncRNA is lagging, because the molecular mechanisms of lncRNA can be various and complex in different conditions. In this study, we found a new molecular mechanism for a versatile molecule, MIR22HG. MIR22HG is an lncRNA that contributes to the initiation and progression of many human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We report that MIR22HG was downregulated in 120 HCC samples compared with adjacent nontumor liver tissues. More interestingly, decreased expression of MIR22HG in HCC could predict poor prognosis of HCC patients. Knockdown of MIR22HG promoted the growth, migration and invasion of HCC cells. In exploring the molecular mechanism of MIR22HG, we found that MIR22HG functioned as a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinomas, in part through serving as a competing endogenous RNA to modulate the miRNA-10a-5p level. Moreover, NCOR2 was verified to act as the downstream target gene of MIR22HG/miR-10a-5p. In addition, the MIR22HG/miRNA-10a-5p/NCOR2 axis inhibited the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Together, our results demonstrated that MIR22HG inhibited HCC progression in part through the miR-10a-5p/NCOR2 signaling axis and might act as a new prognostic biomarker for HCC patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) are important in the growth and metastasis of colon cancer. The objective of this study was to describe the potential role of lncRNA NEAT1 in the progression of colon cancer. METHODS:Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used for detecting NEAT1, miR-185-5p, and IGF2 in colon cancer cells and tissues. The potential diagnostic value of NEAT1 in colon cancer was analyzed with the receiver operating characteristic curve. Kaplan-Meier method was applied for evaluating the association between NEAT1 expression and the overall survival of osteosarcoma patients, whereas Transwell assay was introduced to examine the potential invasion and migration of colon cancer cells. In addition, the binding of NEAT1/IGF2 to miR-185-5p was confirmed by RNA pull-down and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation assays and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Finally, rescue experiments were conducted to confirm the role of NEAT1/miR-185-5p/IGF2 axis in colon cancer. RESULTS:Colon cancer patients with low NEAT1 expression presented with longer overall survival than those with high expression. The migration and invasion of colon cancer cells were considerably promoted by overexpressed NEAT1. Both NEAT1 and IGF2 bound to miR-185-5p. CONCLUSION:NEAT1 upregulate IGF2 expression through absorbing miR-185-5p to enhances the migration and invasion of colon cancer cells.

LncRNA HOTAIR regulates cell invasion and migration in endometriosis through miR-519b-3p/PRRG4 pathway.

Project description:Endometriosis is a common benign disease in gynecology and has malignant biological behaviors, such as hyperplasia, invasion, metastasis, and recurrence. However, the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate whether LncRNA HOTAIR regulates cell invasion and migration in endometriosis by regulating the miR-519b-3p/PRRG4 pathway. The qRT-PCR results showed that the average relative expression of LncRNA HOTAIR was much higher in ectopic endometrial tissues than in eutopic endometrial tissues. Scratch and transwell assays showed that the cell migration and invasion ability of LncRNA HOTAIR overexpression group was significantly higher than those in the control group. Conversely, the LncRNA HOTAIR knockdown group showed the opposite results. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that the downstream target genes of LncRNA HOTAIR were miR-519b-3p and Prrg4. Knockdown of LncRNA HOTAIR can reduce the up-regulation of Prrg4 by miR-519b-3p and then inhibit the invasion and migration ability of endometrial stromal cells. In Conclusion, LncRNA HOTAIR can regulate the ability of invasion and migration of endometrial stromal cells, and its mechanism is proved by regulating the miR-519b-3p/PRRG4 pathway.

M2 Macrophages Promote HCC Cells Invasion and Migration via miR-149-5p/MMP9 Signaling.

Project description:The roles of M2 macrophages on promoting tumor progression and chemotherapy resistance have been well studied in many cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer and so on, but its linkage to HCC cells still remains unclear. Here we found that M2 macrophages could alter miR-149-5p to increase MMP9 expression in HCC cells and mechanism dissection revealed that miR-149-5p might directly target the 3'UTR of MMP9-mRNA to suppress its translation. The in vivo orthotopic xenografts mouse model with oemiR-149-5p also validated in vitro data. Together, these findings suggest that M2 macrophages may through altering the miR-149-5p to promote HCC progression and targeting the M2 macrophages/miR149-5P/MMP9 signaling may help in the development of the novel therapies to better suppress the HCC progression.

lncRNA DLGAP1-AS2 Knockdown Inhibits Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Migration and Invasion by Regulating miR-154-5p Methylation.

Project description:ObjectiveDLGAP1-AS2 has been characterized as an oncogenic lncRNA in glioma. Our preliminary microarray analysis revealed the altered expression of DLGAP1-AS2 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the role of DLGAP1-AS2 in HCC remains unknown.MethodExpression of DLGAP1-AS2 and miR-154-5p in paired HCC and nontumor tissues from 62 HCC patients was determined by RT-qPCR. The 62 HCC patients were followed up for 5 years to analyze the prognostic value of DLGAP1-AS2 for HCC. DLGAP1-AS2 knockdown and miR-154-5p overexpression was achieved in HCC cells to study the relationship between them. Methylation of miR-154-5p was analyzed by methylation-specific PCR. Cell proliferation was analyzed by CCK-8 assay.ResultsDLGAP1-AS2 was upregulated in HCC and predicted poor survival. miR-154-5p was downregulated in HCC and inversely correlated with DLGAP1-AS2. In HCC cells, DLGAP1-AS2 knockdown resulted in the upregulation of miR-154-5p expression and decreased methylation of miR-154-5p gene. Transwell assay showed that DLGAP1-AS2 knockdown and miR-154-5p overexpression inhibited cell invasion and migration, and the combination of LGAP1-AS2 knockdown and miR-154-5p overexpression showed stronger effects.ConclusionDLGAP1-AS2 knockdown may inhibit HCC cell migration and invasion by regulating miR-154-5p methylation.

lncRNA TUG1 Promotes Cell Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Regulating miR-29c-3p/COL1A1 Axis.

Project description:Background:Taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) has been recognized as a novel oncogenic gene. The current study was established to explore the function and regulatory mechanism of TUG1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods:Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of TUG1, miR-29c-3p, and COL1A1 in tissues and cell lines. MTT assay, wound-healing and transwell assay were utilized for the detection of cell viability, migration and invasion, respectively. The interactions between miR-29c-3p and TUG1/COL1A1 were predicted by starBase v2.0 (http://starbase.sysu.edu.cn/) and verified by the dual-luciferase reporter or RNA immunoprecipitation assay. Western blot assay was performed to determine the protein levels of COL1A1, cyclin D1, E-cadherin, N-cadherin, Bcl-2, and Bax. Results:Dramatically increased expression of TUG1 was noticed in HCC tissues and cell lines. TUG1 knockdown restrained the proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promoted the apoptosis of HCC cells. TUG1 targeted miR-29c-3p and inhibited miR-29c-3p expression. Overexpression of miR-29c-3p inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells. MiR-29c-3p directly targeted COL1A1 and down-regulated COL1A1 expression. In addition, downregulation of miR-29c-3p and upregulation of COL1A1 both reversed the effects of TUG1 knockdown on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of HCC cells. Conclusion:TUG1 could promote the proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells through regulating miR-29c-3p/COL1A1 axis. This novel finding might provide a latent target for the treatment of HCC.
