PiRNA-36741 regulates BMP2-mediated osteoblast differentiation via METTL3 controlled m6A modification.

ABSTRACT: The osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is essential for bone formation, and its imbalance can lead to bone diseases such as osteoporosis. It is reported that PIWI-interacting RNA-36741 (piR-36741) is up-regulated during the osteogenic differentiation, but its role in regulating osteogenic differentiation remains unclear. Here, the primary human BMSCs were used to induce osteogenic differentiation, and the expression of piR-36741 and METTL3 (methyltransferase like 3) was up-regulated during the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Moreover, interference with piR-36741 or METTL3 markedly hindered the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, which was manifested by a reduction in osteoblast marker expression (including RUNX2, COL1A1, OPN and OCN), osteogenic phenotype and matrix mineralization. Mechanistically, the piR-36741-PIWIL4 complex directly interacted with METTL3 and prevented METTL3-mediated m6A modification of BMP2 mRNA transcripts, thereby promoting BMP2 expression. And overexpression of BMP2 reversed the inhibitory effect of piR-36741 silence on osteogenic differentiation and the Smad pathway activity. In addition, administration with piR-36741 mimic alleviated ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in mice. In conclusion, piRNA-36741 overexpression promoted osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and mitigated ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis through METTL3-mediated m6A methylation of BMP2 transcripts.

Project description:BackgroundDCLRE1B is a 5'-to-3' exonuclease, which is involved in repairing ICL-related DNA damage. DCLRE1B has been reported to cause poor prognosis in a variety of cancers. Nonetheless, there is no research on DCLRE1B's biological role in pan-cancer datasets. Thus, ascertaining the processes via which DCLRE1B modulates tumorigenesis was the goal of the extensive bioinformatics investigation of pan-cancer datasets in the present research.MethodsIn our research, employing internet websites and databases including TIMER, GEPIA, TISIDB, Kaplan-Meier Plotter, SangerBox, cBioPortal, and LinkedOmics, DCLRE1B-related data in numerous tumors were extracted. To ascertain the association among DCLRE1B expression, prognosis, genetic changes, and tumor immunity, the pan-cancer datasets were examined. The DCLRE1B's biological roles in pancreatic cancer cells were ascertained by employing wound healing, in vitro CCK-8, and MeRIP-qPCR assays.ResultAccording to the pan-cancer analysis, in numerous solid tumors, DCLRE1B upregulation was observed. Expression of DCLRE1B was found to be substantially related to the cancer patients' prognoses. Similarly, expression of DCLRE1B exhibited substantial association with immune cells in several cancer types. DCLRE1B expression correlated with immune checkpoint (ICP) gene expression and impacted immunotherapy sensitivity. According to in vitro trials, DCLRE1B promoted PC cells' proliferation and migration capacities. Also, according to GSEA enrichment analysis, DCLRE1B might participate in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, which was confirmed by western blotting. In addition, we also found that the downregulation of DCLRE1B may be regulated by METTL3-mediated m6A modification.ConclusionsIn human cancer, the overexpression of DCLRE1B was generally observed, which aided cancer onset and advancement via a variety of processes comprising control of the immune cells' tumor infiltration. According to this study's findings, in a few malignant tumors, DCLRE1B is a candidate immunotherapeutic and prognostic biomarker.
