Hsa_circ_0003222 accelerates stemness and progression of non-small cell lung cancer by sponging miR-527.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between circular RNA (circRNA) and cancer stem cells (CSCs) is uncertain. We have investigated the combined influence of CSCs, circRNA (hsa_circ_0003222), and immune checkpoint inhibitors in NSCLC progression and therapy resistance. We constructed lung CSCs (LCSCs; PC9 and A549). The effects of hsa_circ_0003222 in vitro were determined by cell counting, colony and sphere formation, and Transwell assays. A tumor xenograft model of metastasis and orthotopic model were built for in vivo analysis. We found that hsa_circ_0003222 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and LCSCs. Higher levels of hsa_circ_0003222 were associated with the stage, metastasis, and survival rate of patients with NSCLC. Reduced levels of hsa_circ_0003222 decreased tumor cell proliferation, migration, invasion, stemness-like properties, and chemoresistance. The silencing of hsa_circ_0003222 was found to downregulate PHF21B expression and its downstream, β-catenin by relieving the sponging effect of miR-527. Moreover, silencing hsa_circ_0003222 alleviated NSCLC resistance to anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-based therapy in vivo. Our data demonstrate the significant role of hsa_circ_0003222 in NSCLC cell stemness-like properties. The manipulation of circRNAs in combination with anti-PD-L1 therapy may alleviate NSCLC stemness and progression.

LncRNA DLEU2 accelerates the tumorigenesis and invasion of non-small cell lung cancer by sponging miR-30a-5p.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to participate in the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, how lncRNA deleted in lymphocytic leukaemia 2 (DLEU2) contributes to NSCLC remains undocumented. The clinical significance of lncRNA DLEU2 and miR-30a-5p expression in NSCLC was analysed by using fluorescence in situ hybridization and TCGA cohorts. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments as well as a NSCLC tumour model were executed to determine the role of lncRNA DLEU2 in NSCLC. DLEU2-sponged miR-30a-5p was verified by luciferase reporter, and RIP assays. Herein, the expression of lncRNA DLEU2 was elevated in NSCLC tissues, and its high expression or low expression of miR-30a-5p acted as an independent prognostic factor of poor survival and tumour recurrence in NSCLC. Silencing of lncRNA DLEU2 repressed the tumorigenesis and invasive potential of NSCLC, whereas re-expression of lncRNA DLEU2 showed the opposite effects. Furthermore, lncRNA DLEU2 harboured a negative correlation with miR-30a-5p expression in NSCLC tissues and acted as a sponge of miR-30a-5p, which reversed the tumour-promoting effects of lncRNA DLEU2 by targeting putative homeodomain transcription factor 2 in NSCLC. Altogether, lncRNA DLEU2 promoted the tumorigenesis and invasion of NSCLC by sponging miR-30a-5p.

Project description:Background/aimsCircABCB10 function as an endogenous miRNA sponge plays an important role in various tumors. This experimental design was based on circABCB10 to explore the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: CircRNA microarray was used to examine circRNA expression profiles in lung cancer from 3 NSCLC patients and paired healthy lung tissues. The expression of circABCB10 and miR-584-5p was detected by q-PCR. CCK-8, colony formation, and transwell assays to study the circABCB10 effects on tumor cell growth and cell migration invasiveness. To validate downstream target genes of circABCB10 and miR-584-5p detected by luciferase reporter assays. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were used to study E2F5 expression. The tumor growth was detected by nude mice in vivo. Results: We analyzed the human circRNA expression profile in NSCLC tissues. CircABCB10 was identified as a circRNA that increased in NSCLC tissues. CircABCB10 was noticeably raised in NSCLC, and high circABCB10 expression was related to low survival in NSCLC patients. Silencing of circABCB10 suppressed non-small cell lung cancer cell migration, cell proliferation, and invasion.CircABCB10 can act as a sponge of miR-584-5p to up-regulate E2F5 expression level. E2F5 knockdown or overexpress of miR-584-5p gene reversed the circABCB10 who has carcinogenic effects. There was a negative correlation expression between the circABCB10 and miR-584-5p gene, and There was a positive relationship between the expression of circABCB10 and E2F5 in NSCLC tumors. Conclusion: CircABCB10 promoted the progression of NSCLC by modulating the miR-584-5p/E2F5 axis.AbbreviationNSCLC: non-small cell lung cancer; circ RNA: circular RNA; miRNA: micro RNA.

Circ_0016760 accelerates non-small-cell lung cancer progression through miR-646/AKT3 signaling in vivo and in vitro.

Project description:BackgroundCurrently, the prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients remains dismal due to recurrence and metastasis. The purpose of our study was to explore the role of circular RNA_0016760 (circ_0016760) in NSCLC progression and its associated mechanism.MethodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was implemented to measure the expression of circ_0016760, microRNA-646 (miR-646) and AK strain thymoma serine/threonine kinase 3 (AKT3). The protein level of AKT3 was examined by Western blot assay. Cell Counting Kit 8 assay, transwell assays, and flow cytometry were conducted to analyze cell proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to confirm the interactions that were predicted by bioinformatics software (Circular RNA Interactome and TargetScan). A xenograft tumor model was built to investigate the role of circ_0016760 in vivo.ResultsCirc_0016760 and AKT3 were highly expressed in NSCLC tissue specimens and cell lines. Circ_0016760 interference suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and promoted the apoptosis of NSCLC cells. Circ_0016760 interacted with miR-646 and negatively regulated its expression. MiR-646 silencing partly counteracted circ_0016760 knockdown-mediated influences in NSCLC cells. MiR-646 bound to the AKT3 3' untranslated region in NSCLC cells, and miR-646 overexpression-induced effects in NSCLC cells were partly overturned by the addition of AKT3 overexpression plasmid. Circ_0016760 silencing reduced the expression of AKT3 through enhancing miR-646 expression. Circ_0016760 knockdown suppressed NSCLC tumor growth in vivo.ConclusionCirc_0016760 played an oncogenic role to promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion and restrained the apoptosis of NSCLC cells via miR-646/AKT3 signaling.

circUSP34 accelerates osteosarcoma malignant progression by sponging miR-16-5p.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary and highly malignant mesenchymal tissue tumor. The specific pathological mechanism underlying disease initiation or progression remains unclear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a type of covalently circular RNA with a head-to-tail junction site. In this study, we aimed to investigate the sponging mechanism between circRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) in OS. Based on the inhibited effect of miR-16-5p reported on OS, circUSP34 was analyzed as a sponge of miR-16-5p via Starbase. We found that circUSP34 promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OS in vitro and in vivo. circUSP34 increased but miR-16-5p decreased in OS by qRT-PCR. Function assays showed that the malignancy of OS cells, including proliferation, migration, and invasion, was inhibited after knocking out circUSP34. Western blotting results showed that the expression level of vimentin and Ki-67 decreased. Similarly, miR-16-5p mimic compromised the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OS cells. FISH assay results indicated that circUSP34 and miR-16-5p were colocalized in the cytoplasm. The sponging mechanism of circUSP34 and miR-16-5p was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and RNA pull down assays. Interestingly, the miR-16-5p inhibitor partly reversed the inhibitory effect of sh-circUSP34 on the malignancy of OS cells. Further, mice tumors for IHC indicated that vimentin, N-cadherin, and Ki-67 protein expression decreased, but E-cadherin protein expression increased. Collectively, circUSP34 promoted OS malignancy, including proliferation, migration, and invasion, by sponging miR-16-5p. It can serve as a potential therapeutic target and biomarker.

CircRNA circ_0006677 Inhibits the Progression and Glycolysis in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer by Sponging miR-578 and Regulating SOCS2 Expression.

Project description:Objective: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been demonstrated in playing an important role in the physiological and pathological processes (such as cancer). This paper aims to clarify the role of Circ_0006677 in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression. Methods: Using clinical data and in vitro cell line models, we revealed the tumor-suppressive role of circ_0006677 in lung cancer. Using the online bioinformatics tool, we predicted the target of circ_0006677 and further validated its regulatory mechanisms responsible for its tumor suppressor function in NSCLC. Results: Circ_0006677 expression was reduced in NSCLC tissues of patients and lung cancer cells in comparison to adjacent normal tissues. Lower expression of circ_0006677 was significantly associated with poorer patient survival. Overexpression of circ_0006677 significantly inhibited the ability of NSCLC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and glycolysis. Mechanically, circ_0006677 could inhibit NSCLC progression and glycolysis by regulating the expression of the signal transducer inhibitor SOSC2 through sponging microRNA-578 (miR-578). Conclusion: Circ_0006677 prevents the progression of NSCLC via modulating the miR-578/SOSC2 axis.

Hsa_circ_0018818 knockdown suppresses tumorigenesis in non-small cell lung cancer by sponging miR-767-3p.

Project description:To identify potential therapeutic targets in non-small cell lung cancer NSCLC, we conducted a bioinformatics analysis of circRNAs differentially expressed between NSCLC tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Cell proliferation and apoptosis was assessed using CCK-8 and flow cytometry, respectively. A connection between hsa_circ_0018818 and miR-767-3p was confirmed in dual luciferase reporter assays. Gene and protein expression in NSCLC cells were measured using quantitative PCR and Western-blotting, respectively. And a xenograft tumor model was established to assess the function of hsa_circ_0018818 in NSCLC in vivo. Hsa_circ_0018818 was greatly upregulated in NSCLC tumor tissues. Knocking down hsa_circ_0018818 using a targeted shRNA inhibited the proliferation and invasiveness of NSCLC cells and induced their apoptosis via the miR-767-3p/Nidogen 1 (NID1) signaling axis. Hsa_circ_0018818 knockdown also inactivated Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process and PI3K/Akt signaling. In summary, hsa_circ_0018818 knockdown inhibited NSCLC tumorigenesis in vitro and in vivo, which suggests it could potentially serve as a target for the treatment of NSCLC.

Circular RNA circFGFR1 promotes progression and anti-PD-1 resistance by sponging miR-381-3p in non-small cell lung cancer cells.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Immune system evasion, distance tumor metastases, and increased cell proliferation are the main reasons for the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the death of NSCLC patients. Dysregulation of circular RNAs plays a critical role in the progression of NSCLC; therefore, further understanding the biological mechanisms of abnormally expressed circRNAs is critical to discovering novel, promising therapeutic targets for NSCLC treatment. METHODS:The expression of circular RNA fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (circFGFR1) in NSCLC tissues, paired nontumor tissues, and cell lines was detected by RT-qPCR. The role of circFGFR1 in NSCLC progression was assessed both in vitro by CCK-8, clonal formation, wound healing, and Matrigel Transwell assays and in vivo by a subcutaneous tumor mouse assay. In vivo circRNA precipitation, RNA immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter assays were performed to explore the interaction between circFGFR1 and miR-381-3p. RESULTS:Here, we report that circFGFR1 is upregulated in NSCLC tissues, and circFGFR1 expression is associated with deleterious clinicopathological characteristics and poor prognoses for NSCLC patients. Forced circFGFR1 expression promoted the migration, invasion, proliferation, and immune evasion of NSCLC cells. Mechanistically, circFGFR1 could directly interact with miR-381-3p and subsequently act as a miRNA sponge to upregulate the expression of the miR-381-3p target gene C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), which promoted NSCLC progression and resistance to anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)- based therapy. CONCLUSION:Taken together, our results suggest the critical role of circFGFR1 in the proliferation, migration, invasion, and immune evasion abilities of NSCLC cells and provide a new perspective on circRNAs during NSCLC progression.

Circ_ZFR contributes to the paclitaxel resistance and progression of non-small cell lung cancer by upregulating KPNA4 through sponging miR-195-5p.

Project description:BackgroundA growing body of evidence has demonstrated the vital roles of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in cancer progression and drug resistance. We intended to explore the roles and mechanisms of circ_ZFR in the paclitaxel (PTX) resistance and progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsTwo NSCLC cell lines A549 and H460 were used in this study. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay was conducted to measure the levels of circ_ZFR, ZFR, miR-195-5p and karyopherin subunit alpha 4 (KPNA4) mRNA. RNase R assay was used to analyze the characteristic of circ_ZFR. MTT assay was carried out to assess PTX resistance and cell proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis was utilized to analyze cell cycle and apoptosis. Transwell assay was used to examine cell migration and invasion. Western blot assay was conducted to measure the protein levels of Ki67, Twist1, E-cadherin and KPNA4. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was adopted to verify the combination between miR-195-5p and circ_ZFR or KPNA4. Murine xenograft model assay was used to investigate the effect of circ_ZFR on PTX resistance of NSCLC in vivo.ResultsCirc_ZFR level was enhanced in PTX-resistant NSCLC tissues and cells. Knockdown of circ_ZFR suppressed PTX resistance, cell cycle process, proliferation, migration and invasion and induced apoptosis in PTX-resistant NSCLC cells. For mechanism analysis, circ_ZFR knockdown markedly downregulated the expression of KPNA4 by sponging miR-195-5p, thereby promoting PTX sensitivity and suppressing cell progression in PTX-resistant NSCLC cells. In addition, circ_ZFR silencing enhanced PTX sensitivity of NSCLC in vivo.ConclusionCirc_ZFR knockdown played a positive role in overcoming PTX resistance of NSCLC via regulating miR-195-5p/KPNA4 axis, which might provide a possible circRNA-targeted therapy for NSCLC.

Circ_0078767 suppresses non-small-cell lung cancer by protecting RASSF1A expression via sponging miR-330-3p.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study was designed to investigate the role of circ_0078767/miR-330-3p/RASSF1A in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Bioinformatic analysis was performed to screen for the differentially expressed genes in NSCLC tissues from adjacent lung tissues.Materials and methodsqRT-PCR was used to detect the RNA expression of genes in cells and tissues, and Western blot was conducted to determine the protein levels of RASSF1A in tissues and cells. A miRanda algorithm was used to predict the targeted relationship among RNAs. A dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was conducted to verify the targeted relationship. Flow cytometry was performed to investigate the effects of circ_0078767/miR-330-3p/RASSF1A on cell cycle progression and apoptosis. A CCK-8 assay was conducted to explore the effects of circ_0078767/miR-330-3p/RASSF1A on cell proliferation. A transwell invasion assay was completed to study the effects of circ_0078767/miR-330-3p/RASSF1A on cell invasion. Lastly, an in vivo assay was conducted to investigate the effects of circ_0078767/miR-330-3p/RASSF1A on tumour development.ResultsCirc_0078767 and RASSF1A were downregulated, while miR-330-3p was upregulated in NSCLC tissues than that in adjacent tissues. miR-330-3p had a binding relationship with circ_0078767 and RASSF1A. The overexpression of circ_0078767 and RASSF1A or the underexpression of miR-330-3p significantly suppressed NSCLC cell viability, cell cycle progression and invasion while also significantly promoting cell apoptosis. Additionally, these modulations significantly suppressed in vivo tumour growth.ConclusionsCirc_0078767 could suppress NSCLC progression by inhibiting miR-330-3p, which thereby increased RASSF1 levels.
