LINC01133 Inhibits Invasion and Promotes Proliferation in an Endometriosis Epithelial Cell Line.

ABSTRACT: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by ectopic growth of endometrium outside the uterus and is associated with chronic pain and infertility. We investigated the role of the long intergenic noncoding RNA 01133 (LINC01133) in endometriosis, an lncRNA that has been implicated in several types of cancer. We found that LINC01133 is upregulated in ectopic endometriotic lesions. As expression appeared higher in the epithelial endometrial layer, we performed a siRNA knockdown of LINC01133 in an endometriosis epithelial cell line. Phenotypic assays indicated that LINC01133 may promote proliferation and suppress cellular migration, and affect the cytoskeleton and morphology of the cells. Gene ontology analysis of differentially expressed genes indicated that cell proliferation and migration pathways were affected in line with the observed phenotype. We validated upregulation of p21 and downregulation of Cyclin A at the protein level, which together with the quantification of the DNA content using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis indicated that the observed effects on cellular proliferation may be due to changes in cell cycle. Further, we found testis-specific protein kinase 1 (TESK1) kinase upregulation corresponding with phosphorylation and inactivation of actin severing protein Cofilin, which could explain changes in the cytoskeleton and cellular migration. These results indicate that endometriosis is associated with LINC01133 upregulation, which may affect pathogenesis via the cellular proliferation and migration pathways.

Phenotypic assays indicated that LINC01133 may promote proliferation and suppress cellular migration, and affect the cytoskeleton and morphology of the cells. Gene ontology analysis of differentially expressed genes detected by RNA sequencing indicated that cell proliferation and migration pathways were affected in line with the observed phenotype. We validated upregulation of p21 and downregulation of cyclin at the protein level, which together with DNA FACS analysis indicated that the observed effects on cellular proliferation may be due to changes in cell cycle progression. Further, we validated upregulation of the protein kinase TESK1 at the protein level, and found a corresponding increased phosphorylation and therefore inactivation of the actin severing protein Cofilin, which may explain changes in the cytoskeleton and cellular migration. These results indicate that LINC01133 upregulation is associated with endometriosis, which may be due to its effects on genes involved in the cellular proliferation and migration pathways.

MicroRNA-488 inhibits endometrial glandular epithelial cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in endometriosis mice via Wnt by inhibiting FZD7.

Project description:Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory syndrome and nearly 6%-10% of women are affected by it during the reproductive period. Previous studies have proved that microRNAs (miRNAs) are implicated in the pathogenesis of ovarian endometriosis. In this study, we aimed to investigate that restored miR-488 would effectively inhibit the development of endometriosis. The microarray-based data analysis was performed to screen endometriosis-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The mouse model in endometriosis syndrome was established by being subcutaneously injected with Estradiol benzoate, and the ectopic endometrial tissues and normal endometrial tissues were collected. Additionally, the endometrial glandular epithelial cells were extracted from the endometrial glandular epithelial tissues from normal and endometriosis mice. In order to examine the role of miR-488 in mice with endometriosis, we measured miR-488 expression and expression levels of Frizzled-7 (FZD7), cyclinD1, β-catenin, and c-Myc in vivo and in vitro. Finally, we detected the effect of miR-488 on cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion in vitro. FZD7 was upregulated in human endometriosis. The data showed higher expression levels of FZD7, β-catenin, c-Myc and cyclinD1, and lower miR-488 expression in mouse endometrial tissues. FZD7 was the target gene of miR-488. Furthermore, elevated miR-488 in isolated mouse endometrial glandular endometrial cells inhibited FZD7, the translocation of β-catenin to nucleus, the activation of Wnt pathway, and the cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Collectively, these findings indicated that up-regulated miR-488 may reduce the proliferation, migration and invasion of endometrial glandular epithelial cells through inhibiting the activation of Wnt pathway by down-regulating FZD7.

miR‑143‑3p inhibits endometriotic stromal cell proliferation and invasion by inactivating autophagy in endometriosis.

Project description:Endometriosis (EM) is a multifactorial and debilitating chronic benign gynecological disease, but the pathogenesis of the disease is not completely understood. Dysregulated expression of microRNAs (miRNA/miR) is associated with the etiology of EM due to their role in regulating endometrial stromal cell proliferation and invasion. The present study aimed to identify the functions and mechanisms underlying miR‑143‑3p in EM. To explore the role of miR‑143‑3p in EM, functional miRNAs were analyzed via bioinformatics analysis. miR‑143‑3p expression levels in endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and normal endometrial stromal cells (NESCs) were measured via reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. The role of miR‑143‑3p in regulating ESC proliferation and invasion was assessed by performing Cell Counting Kit‑8 and Transwell assays, respectively. miR‑143‑3p expression was significantly upregulated in ESCs compared with NESCs. Functionally, miR‑143‑3p overexpression inhibited ESC proliferation and invasion, whereas miR‑143‑3p knockdown promoted ESC proliferation and invasion. Moreover, miR‑143‑3p inhibited autophagy activation in ESCs, as indicated by decreased green puncta, which represented autophagic vacuoles, decreased microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3α expression and increased p62 expression in the miR‑143‑4p mimic group compared with the control group. Moreover, compared with the control group, miR‑143‑3p overexpression significantly decreased the expression levels of autophagy‑related 2B (ATG2B), a newly identified target gene of miR‑143‑3p, in ESCs. ATG2B overexpression reversed miR‑143‑3p overexpression‑mediated inhibition of ESC proliferation and invasion. Collectively, the results of the present study suggested that miR‑143‑3p inhibited EM progression, thus providing a novel target for the development of therapeutic agents against EM.

Estrogen-decreased hsa_circ_0001649 promotes stromal cell invasion in endometriosis.

Project description:Endometriosis (EMs) is an estrogen (E2)-dependent inflammatory disorder. Although EMs is considered a benign disease, it presents with malignant characteristics, such as migration and invasion. An increasing number of studies have shown that aberrantly expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an essential role in disease development and progression. However, the mechanisms by which circRNAs exert their pathological effects in EMs remain unclear. Hsa_circ_0001649, a novel cancer-associated circRNA, has been previously reported to be downregulated in several cancer types and related to cell migration and invasion. In the present study, real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was carried out to measure hsa_circ_0001649 levels in human tissues, human primary endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) and a human endometrial stromal cell line (ThESCs). Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) levels in ESCs and ThESCs were assessed by qRT-PCR and Western blotting, and the migration and invasion capacities of ThESCs were evaluated by transwell assay. As a result, hsa_circ_0001649 expression was significantly decreased in ectopic and eutopic endometrial samples compared with that in normal endometrial samples. E2 decreased hsa_circ_0001649 expression but increased MMP9 expression in ESCs and ThESCs. Furthermore, ThESCs were more invasive under E2 stimulation. However, these effects disappeared when ICI or hsa_circ_0001649 transfection was used. Collectively, our findings reveal that decreased hsa_circ_0001649 expression plays a role in E2-increased MMP9 expression through E2 receptors (ERs), which have critical functions in EMs.

SMURF1-mediated ubiquitylation of SHP-1 promotes cell proliferation and invasion of endometrial stromal cells in endometriosis.

Project description:BackgroundEndometriosis is a widespread benign gynecological disorder. The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis through regulating proliferation and invasion of endometrial stromal cells. Furthermore, the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP), SH2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP-1), negatively regulates STAT3 activation. However, regulation of the SHP-1-STAT3 pathway in the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains unclear.MethodsCell proliferation and invasion were assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and Transwell analysis, respectively, to investigate the role and regulation of the SHP-1-STAT3 pathway in the proliferation and invasion of endometrial stromal cells. Expression of Smad ubiquitin regulatory factor 1 (SMURF1), SHP-1, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), MMP9, STAT3, and phospho-STAT3 (p-STAT3) level in patients with endometriosis were measured by Western blotting and/or immunohistochemical staining. The interaction between SMURF1 and SHP-1 was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation and ubiquitylation analysis.ResultsThe present study demonstrated that downregulation of SHP-1 expression in patients with endometriosis was negatively correlated with SMURF1 expression. SMURF1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, activated the STAT3 pathway via ubiquitylation and degradation of SHP-1. Furthermore, SMURF1 promoted cell proliferation and invasion of endometrial stromal cells by activating STAT3 signaling and expression of its downstream targets, MMP2 and MMP9, whereas SHP-1 demonstrated an inverse effect. Additionally, SHP-1 inhibited SMURF1-mediated cell invasion and proliferation of endometrial stromal cells.ConclusionsOur findings indicate that SMURF1-mediated ubiquitylation of SHP-1 regulates endometrial stromal cell proliferation and invasion during endometriosis.

TMEM184B promotes proliferation, migration and invasion, and inhibits apoptosis in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Project description:Several members of the transmembrane protein family are associated with the biological processes of human malignancies; however, the expression pattern and biological function of one family member, TMEM184B, in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC) are not fully understood. The expression between HPSCC tumours and adjacent normal tissues was determined by the Immunohistochemistry (IHC). A bioinformatics analysis was performed to verify the expression pattern of TMEM184B in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Furthermore, in vitro assays on cell proliferation, invasion, migration and in vivo experiments on tumour growth and apoptosis of TMEM184B in HPSCC were performed. We found that the HPSCC tissues had a significantly higher expression of TMEM184B than the adjacent normal tissues. Bioinformatics analysis confirmed the different expression of TMEM184B expression in HPSCC. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that TMEM184B promotes HPSCC cell growth, cell invasion and migration in FaDu cells, whereas flow cytometry assay showed that TMEM184B inhibited cell apoptosis. Our study revealed for the first time that TMEM184B might serve an oncogenic function in HPSCC and could be a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for HPSCC.

LncRNA BX357664 inhibits cell proliferation and invasion and promotes cell apoptosis in human colorectal cancer cells.

Project description:Colorectal cancer represents a great burden for patients worldwide. Long noncoding RNA BX357664 is an RNA that was identified by microarray technique in renal cell carcinoma. The function of BX357664 in solid tumors remains largely unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the expression profile and functional role of BX357664 in human colorectal cancer progression. The transcription levels of BX357664 were initially examined in vivo and in vitro. An overexpression plasmid was constructed in order to examine the effects of BX357664 overexpression on cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion. The results demonstrated that BX357664 was significantly downregulated in clinical colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of BX357664 decreased cell proliferation rates and cell colony formation capacities in HCT116 and HT-29 cells. Following BX357664 overexpression, HCT116 and HT-29 cells exhibited reduced migration and invasion capacities. Would closure was also blunted by >50% following overexpression of BX357664 in HCT-116 and HT-29 cells. In addition, the cell cycle regulators Cyclin B1, CDC25C and Cyclin D1 as well as the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin were downregulated, whereas the epithelial marker E-cadherin was upregulated by BX357664 overexpression. Finally, HCT116 and HT-29 cell apoptosis was induced and activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9 increased significantly following BX357664 overexpression. The present data suggested that BX257664 negatively regulated cell proliferation and metastasis and promoted cell apoptosis in colorectal cancer. These observations provided novel evidence that BX357664 might serve as a tumor suppressor and a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of colorectal cancer in the clinic.

MicroRNA-92a-3p Inhibits Cell Proliferation and Invasion by Regulating the Transcription Factor 21/Steroidogenic Factor 1 Axis in Endometriosis.

Project description:Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent disease. However, little is known about the regulation of estrogen, a potential therapeutic target, in EMS, which remains very poorly managed in the clinic. We hypothesized that microRNAs (miRNAs) can be exploited therapeutically to regulate transcription factor 21 (TCF21) and steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1) gene expression. In our study, paired eutopic and ectopic endometrial samples were obtained from women with EMS and processed by a standard protocol to obtain human endometrial stromal cells (EMs) for in vitro studies. We found that miR-92a-3p levels were decreased in ectopic endometrium and ectopic stromal cells (ESCs) compared with paired eutopic lesions. miR-92a-3p overexpression significantly suppressed the proliferation and migration of ESCs, whereas a decreased level of miR-92a-3p generated the opposite results. Next, we identified TCF21 as a candidate target gene of miR-92a-3p. In vitro cell experiments showed that miR-92a-3p negatively regulated the expression of TCF21 and its downstream target gene SF-1. Moreover, cell proliferation and invasion ability decreased after the silencing of SF-1 and increased after SF-1 overexpression. We also observed that silencing SF-1 while inhibiting miR-92a-3p partially blocked the increase in cell proliferation and invasion ability caused by miR-92a-3p knockdown while overexpressing both SF-1 and miR-92a-3p mitigated the impairment in cell proliferation and invasion ability caused by miR-92a-3p overexpression. Our results may provide a novel potential therapeutic target for the treatment of EMS.

LINC00958 promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma cells.

Project description:Oesophageal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers in the world. Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most prevalent histological type of oesophageal cancer. Oesophageal cancer has a poor prognosis because of its invasiveness. Thus, it is especially important to seek effective treatment methods. Research indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a significant role in the occurrence and development of oesophageal cancer. The aim of this study was to describe the role of LINC00958 in ESCC. Bioinformatics and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) methods were utilized to predict and verify the expression of LINC00958 in ESCC. Related functional experiments, including cell proliferation, migration and invasion, were performed. In addition, a western blot and a dual luciferase reporter gene experiment were used to study the detailed carcinogenic mechanism of LINC00958. The results indicated there was a high expression of LINC00958 in ESCC, which promoted proliferation, migration, invasion and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) of ESCC cells, and this effect may be via regulating miR-510-5p.
