A Novel Circular RNA circITSN2 Targets the miR-218-5p/LMO7 Axis to Promote Chicken Embryonic Myoblast Proliferation and Differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of endogenous non-coding RNAs without 5' and 3' ends; an increasing number of studies show that circRNA is involved in skeletal muscle development. From our previous sequencing data, the circRNAome in breast muscle of two chicken lines with a distinct rate of muscle development, which included a fast muscle growing broiler (FMGB) and a slow muscle growing layer (SMGL), we found a novel differentially expressed circRNA generated by intersectin 2 (ITSN2) gene (named circITSN2). We verified that circITSN2 is a skeletal muscle-enriched circRNA that promotes chicken primary myoblast (CPM) proliferation and differentiation. Further molecular mechanism analysis of circITSN2 in chicken myogenesis was performed, and we found circITSN2 directly targeting miR-218-5p. Besides, miR-218-5p inhibits CPM proliferation and differentiation, which is contrary to circITSN2. Commonly, circRNAs act as a miRNA sponge to alleviate the inhibition of miRNAs on mRNAs. Thus, we also identified that a downstream gene LIM domain 7 (LMO7) was inhibited by miR-218-5p, while circITSN2 could block the inhibitory effect of miR-218-5p by targeting it. Functional analysis revealed that LMO7 also accelerates CPM proliferation and differentiation, which was similar to circITSN2 but contrary to miR-218-5p. Taken together, these results suggested that circITSN2 promotes chicken embryonic skeletal muscle development via relieving the inhibition of miR-218-5p on LMO7. Our findings revealed a novel circITSN2/miR-218-5p/LMO7 axis in chicken embryonic skeletal muscle development, which expands our understanding of the complex muscle development regulatory network.

Project description:BackgroundPancreatic cancer is a highly lethal malignancy with poor prognosis. Anillin (ANLN), an actin binding protein, is upregulated and plays an important role in many malignant tumors. However, the precise role of ANLN in pancreatic cancer remains unclear.MethodsThe expression of ANLN and its association with pancreatic cancer patient survival were analyzed using an online database and confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The ANLN protein expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines was detected by Western blot. Cell proliferation, colony formation and transwell assays in vitro and in vivo tumor growth were used to determine the role of ANLN in pancreatic cancer. Gene expression microarray analysis and a series of in vitro assays were used to elucidate the mechanisms of ANLN regulating pancreatic cancer progression.ResultsWe found that the ANLN expression was significantly upregulated in pancreatic cancer tissues and cell lines. The high expression of ANLN was associated with tumor size, tumor differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer. ANLN downregulation significantly inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion and tumorigenicity in nude mice. Meanwhile, we found that ANLN knockdown inhibited several cell-cell adhesion related genes, including the gene encoding LIM and SH3 protein 1 (LASP1). LASP1 upregulation partially reversed the tumor-suppressive effect of ANLN downregulation on pancreatic cancer cell progression. Moreover, we found that ANLN downregulation induced the expression of miR-218-5p which inhibited LASP1 expression through binding to its 3'UTR. We also found that ANLN-induced enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) upregulation was involved in regulating miR-218-5p/LASP1 signaling axis. EZH2 upregulation or miR-218-5p downregulation partially reversed the tumor-suppressive effect of ANLN downregulation on pancreatic cancer cell progression.ConclusionANLN contributed to pancreatic cancer progression by regulating EZH2/miR-218-5p/LASP1 signaling axis. These findings suggest that ANLN may be a candidate therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer.

Project description:Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) requires complete dependence on the metabolic system of the host cell to complete its life cycle. There is a strong link between efficient viral replication and cellular lipid synthesis. However, the mechanism by which PEDV interacts with host cells to hijack cellular lipid metabolism to promote its replication remains unclear. In this study, PEDV infection significantly enhanced the expression of lipid synthesis-related genes and increased cellular lipid accumulation. Furthermore, using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, we identified heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A3 (HNRNPA3) as the interacting molecule of PEDV NSP9. We demonstrated that the expression of HNRNPA3 was downregulated by PEDV-induced miR-218-5p through targeting its 3' untranslated region. Interestingly, knocking down HNRNPA3 facilitated the PEDV replication by promoting cellular lipid synthesis. We next found that the knockdown of HNRNPA3 potentiated the transcriptional activity of sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 1 (SREBF1) through zinc finger protein 135 (ZNF135) as well as PI3K/AKT and JNK signaling pathways. In summary, we propose a model in which PEDV downregulates HNRNPA3 expression to promote the expression and activation of SREBF1 and increase cellular lipid accumulation, providing a novel mechanism by which PEDV interacts with the host to utilize cellular lipid metabolism to promote its replication.IMPORTANCEAs the major components and structural basis of the viral replication complexes of positive-stranded RNA viruses, lipids play an essential role in viral replication. However, how PEDV manipulates host cell lipid metabolism to promote viral replication by interacting with cell proteins remains poorly understood. Here, we found that SREBF1 promotes cellular lipid synthesis, which is essential for PEDV replication. Moreover, HNRNPA3 negatively regulates SREBF1 activation and specifically reduces lipid accumulation, ultimately inhibiting PEDV dsRNA synthesis. Our study provides new insight into the mechanisms by which PEDV hijacks cell lipid metabolism to benefit viral replication, which can offer a potential target for therapeutics against PEDV infection.
