LncRNA SNHG20 promotes cell proliferation and invasion by suppressing miR-217 in ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ovarian cancer is the most common female gynecological malignancy. SNHG20, as a long non-coding RNA, has been proven to be an important regulator in the occurrence and development of various tumors. However, the potential mechanism of SNHG20 in ovarian cancer is unclear.

Objective

The present study was aimed to investigate the functions and mechanisms of SNHG20 in ovarian cancer.

Methods

The expression of SNHG20 and miR-217 in ovarian cancer tissues and cell lines was detected by qRT-PCR. CCK-8 assay was used to measure cell proliferation in transfected cells. The transwell assay was used to detect the relative invasion rate of transfected cells. The putative binding sites between SNHG20 and miR-217 were predicted by software LncBase v.2, and the interaction between SNHG20 and miR-217 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assays and RIP assay. The rescue experiments were used to illustrate potential mechanisms.

Results

SNHG20 was upregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of SNHG20 promoted ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion. MiR-217 was downregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and cells, and was negatively regulated by SNHG20. Moreover, miR-217 overexpression inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Furthermore, miR-217 mimic reversed the inhibitory effect of SNHG20 overexpression on the biological behavior of ovarian cancer cells.

Conclusions

SNHG20 promoted cell proliferation and invasion by sponging miR-217 in ovarian cancer. These results suggested that SNHG20 and miR-217 might provide new targets for therapeutic application in ovarian cancer.

miR‑122 promotes proliferation and invasion of clear cell renal cell carcinoma by suppressing Forkhead box O3.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) serve an important role in renal cancer, but renal cancer miRNA expression data remains inconsistent. Therefore, there is a requirement for integrated analysis of these data. An increasing number of studies demonstrate that miR‑122 is dysregulated in numerous cancer types, including liver, lung and breast cancer, yet its role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains unclear. In the present study, an integrated analysis of four ccRCC miRNAs expression datasets was performed and the expression of miR‑122 in the present cohort was validated. The effects of cell proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion of ccRCC cells in vitro were assayed following transfection with miR‑122 mimics and inhibitor. The target gene of miR‑122 was confirmed using a luciferase reporter assay, and a xenograft mouse model was used to determine the effect of miR‑122 in ccRCC tumorigenicity in vivo. The present results demonstrated that patients with ccRCC with an increased miR‑122 level in tumor tissues had a shortened metastasis‑free survival time as indicated by The Cancer Genome Atlas‑Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma dataset and the present ccRCC cohort. Overexpression of miR‑122 in 786‑O cells improved cell proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion, while knockdown of miR‑122 in SN12‑PM6 cells inhibited cell growth, colony formation, migration and invasion. Western blot analysis and luciferase reporter assays were used to identify FOXO3 as a direct target of miR‑122. The present results indicate that miR‑122 serves a tumor‑promoting role by direct targeting FOXO3 in ccRCC.

lncRNA KTN1‑AS1 promotes glioma cell proliferation and invasion by negatively regulating miR‑505‑3p.

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most prevalent and aggressive central nervous tumors with high mobility and mortality. The prognosis of patients with GBM is poor. It is therefore essential to explore the therapeutic strategies for the treatment of GBM. Previous studies have demonstrated that the long non‑coding RNA (lncRNA) Kinectin 1‑Antisense RNA 1 (KTN1‑AS1) can participate in the development of several types of cancer. However, the underlying mechanism of KTN1‑AS1 in GBM remains unknown. The present study aimed to determine the potential role of KTN1‑AS1 in GBM. In this study, reverse transcription quantitative PCR analysis was conducted and the results demonstrated that KTN1‑AS1 was upregulated in GBM tissues and cell lines compared with normal tissues and astrocytes (NHA). Furthermore, KTN1‑AS1 knockdown decreased the viability and invasive ability of glioma cells in vitro and in vivo. In addition, high level of KTN1‑AS1 was correlated with poor prognosis in TCGA GBM database. Furthermore, microRNA‑505‑3p (miR‑505‑3p) was a promising target of KTN1‑AS1, and the suppressing effects of miR‑505‑3p on cell proliferation and invasive ability was reversed by downregulating KTN1‑AS1. Taken together, the results from the present provided novel insights into the roles of KTN1‑AS1 in GBM, and suggested that the KTN1‑AS1/miR‑505‑3p axis may be considered as a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of patients with GBM.

Long noncoding RNA LINC00963 was found to be participated in carcinogenesis and progression of osteosarcoma. However, the molecular mechanisms of LINC00963 engaged in osteosarcoma (OS) still needs to be explored. Methods: LINC00963 and miR-204-3p RNA expression levels were quantified by PCR in OS tissues and cells. CCK 8 assay, wound healing assay and transwell migration and invasion assay were chosen to assess cell growth, viability, migration, and invasion. Luciferase reporter assays were performed to verify direct interaction between LINC00963 and miR-204-3p and miR-204-3p and Fibronectin-1. Western blot was conducted to evaluate Fibronectin-1 expression in OS cells. Results: LINC00963 was verified to be highly expressed in OS samples and cells. Specifically, elevated expression of LINC00963 was correlated with poor prognosis in patients. Furthermore, LINC00963 overexpression was found to promote proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. The luciferase reporter assay showed that LINC00963 can suppress miR-204-3p by directly binding miR-204-3p. Rescue experiment results indicated that function of LINC00963 in osteosarcoma was miR-204-3p dependant. Besides, we initially explored Fibronectin-1 (FN1) as the target of LINC00963/miR-204-3p axis in osteosarcoma. Conclusions: Our findings implied that LINC00963/miR-204-3p/FN1 can play an important role in proliferation and progression in osteosarcoma. LINC00963 has the potential to be a therapeutic target for osteosarcoma treatment.

Project description:Background:The abnormal expression of RMRP and miR-613 was respectively associated with the pathogenesis of lung cancer, but the role of the RMRP/miR-613 axis in NSCLC has not been studied. Methods:In this report, we measured the levels of RMRP in clinical NSCLC samples and cell lines. The target gene of RNA was predicted by online tools and verified by Luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, the function and regulatory mechanism of RMRP in the progression of cancer were further investigated. Results:Our data showed that the expression of RMRP in NSCLC tissues and cell lines was both up-regulated. Functionally, RMRP promoted the proliferation and metastasis of A549 and H1299 cells. Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that RMRP was the sponger of miR-613, and NFAT5 is the direct target of miR-613. Functional acquisition and loss-of-function strategies further confirmed that RMRP induces the up-regulation of NFAT5 expression through competitive binding with miR-613, leading to promote the progression and metastasis potential of lung cancer cells. Conclusion:Collectively, our findings emphasized the importance of RMRP in the development of NSCLC, which may provide a new therapeutic target and potential diagnostic biomarker for NSCLC therapy.

LncRNA CRNDE promotes cell proliferation, invasion and migration by competitively binding miR-384 in papillary thyroid cancer.

Project description:Thyroid cancer is one of the most prevalent endocrine neoplasm. The present study examined the effects of Colorectal Neoplasia Differentially Expressed (CRNDE) on the progression of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), and explored the underlying molecular mechanisms. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect CRNDE, miR-384 and pleiotrophin (PTN) mRNA expression. Western blot was used to measure PTN protein levels. Cell proliferation, cell growth, cell invasion and migration of PTC cells were determined by CCK-8, colony formation, transwell invasion and migration assays, respectively. CRNDE was up-regulated in PTC tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of CRNDE promoted BCPAP cell proliferation, invasion and migration, while knock-down of CRNDE suppressed K1 cell proliferation, invasion and migration. CRNDE negatively regulated the expression of miR-384 in PTC cells, which was further confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. MiR-384 was down-regulated and inversely correlated with CRNDE expression in PTC tissues. MiR-384 suppressed cell proliferation, invasion and migration in PTC cells, and enforced expression of miR-384 attenuated the oncogenic effects of CRNDE in PTC cells. PTN was predicted as a downstream target of miR-384, which was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay, and PTN was up-regulated in PTC tissues, and was negatively correlated with miR-384 expression and positively correlated with CRNDE expression in PTC tissues. In summary, our results suggested that the CRNDE/miR-384/PTN axis may play an important role in the regulation of PTC progression, which provides us with new insights into understanding the PTC.

Circular RNA hsa_circ_0023404 promotes the proliferation, migration and invasion in endometrial cancer cells through regulating miR-217/MAPK1 axis.

Project description:BackgroundEmerging studies indicated that circular RNA hsa_circ_ 0023404 and its target miR-217/MARK1 axis play a critical role in cancer progression such as non-small cell lung cancer and cervical cancer. However, the role of hsa_circ_0023404/miR-217/MARK1 involved in endometrial cancer (EC) was not investigated yet. The aim of this study is to investigate the functions of hsa_circ_0023404 in endometrial cancer (EC) and the potential molecular mechanism.MethodsWe used RT-qPCR and Western blot approach to detect the expressed levels of related genes in EC cell lines. Transfected siRNAs were applied to knockdown the level of related mRNA in cells. Cell proliferation by CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay were applied to detect cell proliferation. Transwell migration and invasion assay was for detecting the migration and invasion of the cells.ResultsRT-qPCR showed that the levels of hsa_circ_0023404 and MARK1 mRNA were upregulated, but mirR-217 was decreased in three endometrial cancer cell lines. Knockdown of hsa_circ_0023404 by siRNA markedly increased the level of miR-217 and reduced the proliferation of the Ishikawa cells. It also inhibited the cell migration and invasion. Anti-miR-217 can reverse the promoted proliferation, migrations and invasion of Ishikawa cells mediated by si-circ_0023404. si-MARK1 restored the inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion of the co-transfected Ishikawa cells with si- circ_0023404 and anti-miR-217.Conclusionhsa_circ_0023404 exerts a tumor-promoting role in endometrial cancer by regulating miR-217/MARK1 axis. hsa_circ_0023404 inhibit miR-217 as sponge which inhibit endometrial cancer cell growth and metastasis. MARK1 is downstream target of miR217 and upregulated by hsa_circ_ 0023404/miR-217 axis and involved in the endometrial cancer progression.

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.

miR-146b promotes cell proliferation and increases chemosensitivity, but attenuates cell migration and invasion via FBXL10 in ovarian cancer.

Project description:Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. However, the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we found that miR-146b was downregulated in EOC and its expression level was negatively correlated with the pathological staging. Follow-up functional experiments illustrated that overexpression of miR-146b significantly inhibited cell migration and invasion, and increased cell proliferation, but it also improved the response to chemotherapeutic agents. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that miR-146b exerted its function mainly through inhibiting F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 10 (FBXL10), and upregulated the Cyclin D1, vimentin (VIM), and zona-occludens-1 (ZO-1) expression in EOC. These findings indicate that miR-146b-FBXL10 axis is an important epigenetic regulation pathway in EOC. Low miR-146b may contribute to cancer progression from primary stage to advanced stage, and may be the promising therapeutic target of EOC.
