Circular RNA CircPPP1CB Suppresses Tumorigenesis by Interacting With the MiR-1307-3p/SMG1 Axis in Human Bladder Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Circular RNA (circRNA) is a newly discovered endogenous non-coding RNA (ncRNA), which is characterized with a closed circular structure. A growing body of evidence has verified the vital roles of circRNAs in human cancer. In this research, we selected circPPP1CB as a study object by circRNA sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) validation in human bladder cancer (BC). CircPPP1CB is downregulated in BC and is negatively correlated with clinical stages and histological grades. Functionally, circPPP1CB modulated cell growth, metastasis, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, we performed various experiments to verify the circPPP1CB/miR-1307-3p/SMG1 regulatory axis. Taken together, our results demonstrated that circPPP1CB participates in tumor growth, metastasis, and EMT process by interacting with the miR-1307-3p/SMG1 axis, and that circPPP1CB might be a novel therapeutic target and diagnostic biomarker in human BC.

Project description:BackgroundEmerging evidence suggested that long intergenic noncoding RNA (lincRNA) 00887 (NR_024480) reduced the invasion and metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer by sponging miRNAs degradation. However, the role and regulatory mechanism of linc00887 in the progression of cervical cancer remain largely unknown.MethodsIn vivo or vitro, RT-qPCR assay was used to detect the expression of linc00887 in human normal (N = 30), cervical cancer tissues (N = 30), human normal cervical epithelial cells (Ect1/E6E7) and cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa, C33A). Then, CCK-8 and Transwell assays were used to examine cell proliferation and invasion when linc00887 was overexpressed or knocked down. In addition, bioinformatics, luciferase reporter gene and pull-down assays were used to predict and validate the relationship between linc00887 and miR-454-3p. Moreover, we detected the expression of miR-454-3p in Ect1/E6E7, HeLa and C33A cells when linc00887 was overexpressed or knocked down. Cell proliferation and invasion were also measured when pcDNA-linc00887 and miR-454-3p were transfected alone or together. Next, miR-454-3p target gene was predicted and validated by bioinformatics and luciferase reporter gene assays. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments were performed in HeLa cells to evaluate the effect of miR-454-3p or linc00887 on the expression of FERM domain containing protein 6 (FRMD6) protein and several key proteins in the FRMD6-Hippo signaling pathway.ResultsLinc00887 was downregulated in cervical cancer tissues or human cervical cancer cell lines (Hela, C33A) compared with normal tissues or cell lines. Overexpression of linc00887 inhibited proliferation and invasion HeLa and C33A cells, while linc00887 knockdown had the opposite effect. Linc00887 bound with miR-454-3p, and overexpression of miR-454-3p rescued linc00887-induced inhibition proliferation and invasion of HeLa cells. MiR-454-3p targeted and suppressed the expression of FRMD6, and linc00887 suppressed tumorigenesis of cervical cancer through activating the FRMD6-Hippo signaling pathway.ConclusionsLinc00887, sponging miR-454-3p, inhibited the progression of cervical cancer by activating the FRMD6-Hippo signaling pathway.

Project description:Bladder cancer (BCa) is an aggressive malignancy because of its distant metastasis and high recurrence rate. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert critical regulatory functions in cancer progression. However, the expression patterns and roles of circRNAs in BCa have not been well investigated. In this study, we first screened circRNA expression profiles using a circRNA microarray of paired BCa and normal tissues, and the expression of circST6GALNAC6 was confirmed by qRT-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). MTT, colony formation and Transwell assays were performed to measure cell proliferation, migration and invasion. We investigated the regulatory effect of circST6GALNAC6 on miRNA and its target genes to explore the potential regulatory mechanisms of circST6GALNAC6 by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), MS2-tagged RNA affinity purification (MS2-TRAP), immunofluorescence (IF) and dual luciferase activity assays. A nude mouse xenograft model was used to examine the functions of circST6GALNAC6/STMN1 in tumour metastasis in vivo. We found that 881 circRNAs were significantly dysregulated in BCa tissues compared to normal tissues. circST6GALNAC6(hsa_circ_0088708) was downregulated in BCa tissues and cells. Overexpression of circST6GALNAC6 effectively inhibited the cell proliferation, migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro and suppressed BCa metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, we showed that the SP1 transcription factor, which binds to the circST6GALNAC6 mRNA transcript, activates circST6GALNAC6 transcription. Next, we verified that circST6GALNAC6 serves as a sponge that directly binds miR-200a-3p to regulate stathmin (STMN1) expression. Furthermore, we found that STMN1 is involved in circST6GALNAC6/miR-200a-3p axis-regulated BCa EMT and metastasis. Thus, our findings indicate an important underlying mechanism in BCa metastasis by which SP1-induced circST6GALNAC6 sponges miR-200a-3p to promote STMN1/EMT signalling. This mechanism could provide pivotal potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for BCa.
