LncRNA SNHG17 promotes tumor progression and predicts poor survival in human renal cell carcinoma via sponging miR-328-3p.

ABSTRACT: Accumulating data shows that dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in human tumors' occurrence and progression. Small nucleolar RNA host genes (SNHGs) are recently revealed to play a carcinogenic role in various human neoplasms. However, the functions and underlying mechanisms of lncRNA SNHG17 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are still elusive. We analyzed the relationship between SNHG17 expression levels and clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis in patients with RCC according to TCGA RNA-sequencing data and our cohort data. Loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were conducted to examine the biological behaviors of SNHG17 on RCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, and tumor growth in vivo. The interaction between SNHG17, miR-328-3p, and Histone'sH2Avariant (H2AX) was verified by bioinformatics, dual-luciferase reporter gene, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP). Highly expressed SNHG17 was evident in RCC tissue samples and cell lines, and SNHG17 overexpression was related to advanced TNM stage and reduced relapse-free and overall survival of patients with RCC. Knockdown of SNHG17 prohibited malignant phenotypes, whereas ectopic SNHG17 expression showed the opposite effects. More importantly, SNHG17 could upregulate the expression of H2AX by acting as a miR-328-3p sponge. In vivo experiments confirmed that SNHG17 promoted the growth of RCC tumors. SNHG17/miR-328-3p/H2AXaxis might be involved in RCC progression, which provided a potential therapeutic target for RCC.

LncRNA FAM66C inhibits pancreatic cancer progression by sponging miR-574-3p.

Project description:BackgroundPancreatic cancer is an extensively concerned human malignancy around the globe, yet the potential therapeutic target remains to be further determined. MicroRNA and LncRNA have been reported to be involved in progression of pancreatic cancer, while the biological role of microRNA-574-3p (miR-574-3p) and FAM66C in pancreatic cancer development is poorly investigated.MethodsQuantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis was employed to detect the expression of miR-574-3p and FAM66C in pancreatic normal or cancerous tissues and cells. The proliferative and apoptosis signaling molecules were also examined via qPCR and western blot separately. Additionally, cell proliferation and apoptosis assay were performed via CCK8, colony formation and Annexin V-FITC apoptosis assay. Interaction between miR-574-3p and FAM66C was interrogated by luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation. Even more, a pancreatic cancer xenograft mice assay was implemented to illustrate the coordinating role of miR-574-3p and FAM66C in pancreatic cancer proliferation.ResultsWe found that levels of miR-574-3p were significantly higher in cancer tissues and cells compared to normal (P<0.05). Remarkably, the results indicated that depletion of miR-574-3p inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of human pancreatic cancer cell lines. Additionally, FAM66C was demonstrated to interact with miR-574-3p and inhibit its expression. Significantly, FAM66C was proved to act as a tumor suppressor role via inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting cell apoptosis in pancreatic cancer. Moreover, FAM66C coordinated with miR-574-3p to regulate progression of xenograft tumor in the nude mice.ConclusionsFAM66C-miR-574-3p axis mediates progression of pancreatic and might be the promising therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer patients.

LncRNA SNHG4 promotes tumour growth by sponging miR-224-3p and predicts poor survival and recurrence in human osteosarcoma.

Project description:ObjectiveAccumulating data show that dysregulation of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) acts a critical role in a variety of malignancies. Among these lncRNAs, small nucleolar RNA host genes (SNHGs) are associated with tumour growth and progression. But, the molecular mechanisms by which SNHG4 contributes to osteosarcoma remain undocumented.MethodsThe association between lncRNA SNHG4 expression and clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis in patients with osteosarcoma was analysed by TCGA RNA-sequencing data. Cell viability and colony formation abilities were respectively assessed by MTT and colony formation assays. LncRNA SNHG4-specific binding with miR-224-3p was verified by bioinformatic analysis, luciferase gene report, and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Regulation relationship between SNHG4 and miR-224-3p expression was further evaluated by the rescue experiments.ResultsThe expression level of lncRNA SNHG4 was significantly elevated in osteosarcoma samples and cell lines as compared with the adjacent normal tissues, and SNHG4 high expression was associated with tumour size (TS) and poor prognosis in patients with osteosarcoma. Knockdown of SNHG4 suppressed cell viability and invasive potential, whereas ectopic SNHG4 expression displayed the opposite effects. Moreover, we found that lncRNA SNHG4 acted as a sponge of miR-224-3p, and miR-224-3p mimic reversed SNHG4 induced tumour-promoting effects in osteosarcoma cells. The expression of miR-224-3p depicted a negative correlation with SNHG4 in osteosarcoma samples and miR-224-3p low expression was associated with TS and poor survival in patients with osteosarcoma.ConclusionOur findings demonstrated that LncRNA SNHG4 promoted tumour growth by sponging miR-224-3p and represented a poor prognostic factor in patients with osteosarcoma.

lncRNA SNHG15 Promotes Ovarian Cancer Progression through Regulated CDK6 via Sponging miR-370-3p

Project description:Ovarian cancer is a kind of cancer from the female genital tract; the molecular mechanism still needs to be explored. lncRNA plays a vital role in tumorigenesis and development. Our aim was to identify oncogenic lncRNAs in ovarian cancer and explore the potential molecular mechanism. SNHG15 was initially identified by using GEO datasets (GSE135886 and GSE119054) and validated by tumor tissues and the cell line, identifying that SNHG15 was upregulated in ovarian cancer. Besides, high SNHG15 indicated poor prognosis in ovarian cancer. Furthermore, knockdown SNHG15 suppresses ovarian cancer proliferation and promotes apoptosis. Mechanistically, SNHG15 promotes proliferation through upregulated CDK6 via sponging miR-370-3p. Taken together, our findings emphasize the important role of SNHG15 in ovarian cancer, suggesting that SNHG15 may be a promising target for ovarian cancer.

LncRNA PCAT-1 Promoted ESCC Progression via Regulating ANXA10 Expression by Sponging miR-508-3p.

Project description:BackgroundGiven the poor prognosis of metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients, molecular mechanisms underlying the progression and metastasis of ESCC are highly desired in the scientific community. Prostate cancer associated transcript-1 (PCAT-1) is a lncRNA up-regulated in major types of cancers and is associated with the poor prognosis of cancer patients. This study aimed to understand the expression and role of PCAT-1 in the progression and metastasis of ESCC and to identify the potential lncRNA-miRNA interactions and signaling pathways underlying the mechanisms of action of PCAT-1 in ESCC.Materials and methodsGene expression levels were determined by qRT-PCR; protein levels were determined by Western blot assay; cell proliferation, invasion and migration were determined by CCK-8, Transwell invasion and wound healing assays, respectively; in vivo tumor growth was evaluated by xenograft nude mice model.ResultsOur data showed the up-regulation of PCAT-1 in different human ESCC cell lines and in clinical ESCC tissues. Knockdown of PCAT-1 in ESCC cells significantly inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of the cancer cells. Moreover, we showed the interactions between PCAT-1 and miR-508-3p and demonstrated that PCAT-1 was able to repress miR-508-3p expression in ESCC cells via acting as a competing endogenous RNA. Besides, Annexin A10 (ANXA10) was identified to be the downstream target of the PCAT-1 and miR-508-3p interactions.ConclusionThis study demonstrated the functional role of PCAT-1 in promoting the proliferation, invasion and migration of ESCC cells. We also identified a PCAT-1/miR-508-3p/ANXA10 axis in mediating the promoting role of PCAT-1 in the progression of ESCC. The findings provide experimental evidence to support lncRNA PCAT-1 as a potential therapeutic target of ESCC.

LncRNA SNHG5 promotes the progression of osteosarcoma by sponging the miR-212-3p/SGK3 axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNA (lncRNA) SNHG5 has been found to play an important role in tumors. Nevertheless, the function and mechanism of lncRNA SNHG5 in osteosarcoma (OS) remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether lncRNA SNHG5 can regulate the occurrence and development of OS cells.MethodsWe performed quantitative real time PCR to detect the expression of lncRNA SNHG5 in OS cells. 143B, MG63 (knockdown) and U2OS, U2R (overexpression) cell lines were chosen for the function study of SNHG5. The effect of SNHG5, miR-212-3p, and SGK3 in OS cells was explored by MTT assays, clony formation, flow cytometry, transwell assays, wound healing assays, and cell spreading assays. Quantitative real-time PCR, Western blot analysis and luciferase assays were used to detect the interaction between lncRNA SNHG5 and miR-212-3p.ResultsIn this study, knockdown of lncRNA SNHG5 suppressed the growth and metastasis of OS cells, whereas the overexpression of SNHG5 produced an opposite result. Mechanistically, lncRNA SNHG5 functions as a sponger against miR-212-3p and suppresses the miR-212-3p/SGK3 signaling pathway. Introduction of miR-212-3p mimics or inhibitors reverses SNHG5 overexpression or silences the exerted tumor promoting or suppressing effect. In addition, our results showed that the function of SNHG5 can be rescued by miR-212-3p and can regulate the growth and metastasis of OS cells via SGK3, the downstream target of miR-212-3p.ConclusionsIn summary, our study demonstrated that lncRNA SNHG5 can regulate the proliferation and metastasis of OS cells through the miR-212-3p/SGK3 axis. This axis may provide a new target for future clinical treatment.

LncRNA IMFNCR Promotes Intramuscular Adipocyte Differentiation by Sponging miR-128-3p and miR-27b-3p.

Project description:Poultry meat quality is affected by many factors, among which intramuscular fat (IMF) is predominant. IMF content affects the tenderness, juiciness, and flavor of chicken. An increasing number of studies are focusing on the functions of lncRNAs in adipocyte differentiation. However, little is known about lncRNAs associated with intramuscular adipocyte differentiation. In the present study, we focused on an up-regulated lncRNA during intramuscular adipogenetic differentiation, which we named intramuscular fat-associated long non-coding RNA (IMFNCR). IMFNCR promotes intramuscular adipocyte differentiation. In-depth analyses showed that IMFNCR acts as a molecular sponge for miR-128-3p and miR-27b-3p and that PPARG is a direct target of miR-128-3p and miR-27b-3p in chicken. High-fat and high-protein diet inhibited chicken IMFNCR level in vivo. Moreover, IMFNCR level was positively correlated with PPARG mRNA level in chicken breast muscle tissues, a vital corollary to ceRNA function. Altogether, our research showed that IMFNCR acts as a ceRNA to sequester miR-128-3p and miR-27b-3p, leading to heightened PPARG expression, and thus promotes intramuscular adipocyte differentiation. Taken together, our findings may contribute to a more thorough understanding of chicken IMF deposition and the improvement of poultry meat quality.

LncRNA LINC00689 Promotes the Progression of Gastric Cancer Through Upregulation of ADAM9 by Sponging miR-526b-3p.

Project description:Introduction:Increasing studies have demonstrated that noncoding RNAs, including miRNAs and lncRNAs, have vital roles in mediating cancer progression. However, the expression features and biological functions of LINC00689 in gastric cancer (GC) remain largely unknown. This study was designed to investigate the functions of LINC00689, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 as well as their interactions in GC. Methods:Real time PCR(RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of LINC0068, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 in both GC tissues or cell lines. Gain- and loss- of functions of assays were conducted to verify the role of LINC0068, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 in GC development. Cell proliferation were determined by CCK8 assay and transwell assay and scratch wound-healing assay were used to test cell invasion and migration. Further, the relationships between LINC00689 and miR-526b-3p, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 were predicted by bioinformatics analysis and then proved by Luciferase reporter assay and RNA Immunoprecipitation(RIP) assay. Results:We found that LINC00689 was upregulated in GC tissues and positively correlated with advanced tumor stage and tumor size, while miR-526b-3p was downregulated. Furthermore, gain- and loss-of-function experiments revealed that LINC00689 promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of GC cells, while miR-526b-3p had the opposite effects. The underlying mechanisms indicated that LINC00689 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR-526b-3p in GC cells. Further investigations confirmed that ADAM9 was a direct target of miR-526b-3p and positively modulated the progression of GC. Conclusion:Our study suggests that LINC00689 functions as a novel oncogenic lncRNA in the development of GC by promoting ADAM9 expression through suppression of miR-526b-3p.

LncRNA LINC01503 aggravates the progression of cervical cancer through sponging miR-342-3p to mediate FXYD3 expression.

Project description:Cervical cancer (CC), an aggressive malignancy, has a high risk of relapse and death, mainly occurring in females. Accumulating investigations have confirmed the critical role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in diverse cancers. LncRNA LINC01503 has been reported as an oncogene in several cancers. Nonetheless, its role and molecular mechanism in CC have not been explored. In the present study, we found that FXYD3 expression was considerably up-regulated in CC tissues and cells. Moreover, FXYD3 deficiency conspicuously hampered cell proliferation and migration while facilitated cell apoptosis in CC cells. Subsequently, molecular mechanism experiments implied that FXYD3 was a downstream target gene of miR-342-3p, and FXYD3 expression was reversely mediated by miR-342-3p. Moreover, we discovered that LINC01503 acted as the endogenous sponge for miR-342-3p. Besides, LINC01503 negatively regulated miR-342-3p expression and positively regulated FXYD3 expression in CC. Rescue assays revealed that LINC01503 depletion-induced repression on CC progression could be partly recovered by miR-342-3p inhibition, and then the co-transfection of sh-FXYD3#1 rescued this effect. Conclusively, LINC01503 aggravated CC progression through sponging miR-342-3p to mediate FXYD3 expression, providing promising therapeutic targets for CC patients.

LncRNA MEG3 suppressed the progression of ovarian cancer via sponging miR-30e-3p and regulating LAMA4 expression.

Project description:BackgroundOvarian cancer (OC) is a common female reproductive malignancy with a high mortality rate. Although LAMA4 was observed to be downregulated in OC cells, its mechanism in regulating OC metastasis is still unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effect of LAMA4 and its mechanism on OC.MethodsTo achieve this aim, a microarray analysis was performed to screen out the key genes involved in OC pathogenesis. Western-blot and qRT-PCR assays were also carried out to detect protein and mRNA expressions, respectively. A luciferase reporter assay was further used to confirm the direct interaction of miR-30e-3p with MEG3, and the direct interaction of miR-30e-3p with LAMA4 mRNA. Cytological experiments (CCK8, colony formation assay, wound-healing assay etc.) were then performed to explore the roles of miR-30e-3p, MEG3, and LAMA4 in OC cells.ResultsAfter carrying out microarray analysis, LAMA4 was confirmed as a key gene associated with OC pathogenesis. Research results proved that miR-30e-3p was markedly upregulated, while MEG3 and LAMA4 were noticeably downregulated in OC tissues and cells. The overexpression of LAMA4 significantly impaired the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OC cells. However, the upregulation of MEG3 increased the expression of LAMA4 by sponging miR-30e-3p, which alleviated the malignancy of OC cells.ConclusionsObservations showed that forced LAMA4 overexpression could inhibit OC progression, which was regulated by MEG3 via sponging miR-30e-3p. The findings of this research could provide new insights into the mechanism by which MEG3 and LAMA4 exert their anti-oncogenic roles in OC progression.Trial registration Not applicable.

LncRNA-ATB regulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition progression in pulmonary fibrosis via sponging miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p.

Project description:Dysregulation of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) has been proved to play pivotal roles in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and fibrosis. We have previously demonstrated the crucial function of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) ATB in silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis-related EMT progression. However, the underlying molecular mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Here, we verified miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p as two vital downstream targets of lncRNA-ATB. As opposed to lncRNA-ATB, a significant reduction of both miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p was observed in lung epithelial cells treated with TGF-β1 and a murine silicosis model. Overexpression miR-29b-2-5p or miR-34c-3p inhibited EMT process and abrogated the pro-fibrotic effects of lncRNA-ATB in vitro. Further, the ectopic expression of miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p with chemotherapy attenuated silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis in vivo. Mechanistically, TGF-β1-induced lncRNA-ATB accelerated EMT as a sponge of miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p and shared miRNA response elements with MEKK2 and NOTCH2, thus relieving these two molecules from miRNA-mediated translational repression. Interestingly, the co-transfection of miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p showed a synergistic suppression effect on EMT in vitro. Furthermore, the co-expression of these two miRNAs by using adeno-associated virus (AAV) better alleviated silica-induced fibrogenesis than single miRNA. Approaches aiming at lncRNA-ATB and its downstream effectors may represent new effective therapeutic strategies in pulmonary fibrosis.
