Long noncoding RNA PVT1 promotes breast cancer proliferation and metastasis by binding miR-128-3p and UPF1.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Mounting evidence supports that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical roles during cancer initiation and progression. In this study, we report that the plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) lncRNA is involved in breast cancer progression.

Methods

qRT-PCR and western blot were performed to detect the gene and protein expression. Colony formation would healing and transwell assays were used to detect cell function. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down experiments were used to examine the mechanisms interaction between molecules. Orthotopic mouse models were established to evaluate the influence of PVT1 on tumor growth and metastasis in vivo.

Results

PVT1 is significant upregulated in breast cancer patients' plasma and cell lines. PVT1 promotes breast cancer cell proliferation and metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, PVT1 upregulates FOXQ1 via miR-128-3p and promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In addition, PVT1 binds to the UPF1 protein, thereby inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition, proliferation and metastasis in breast cancer cells.

Conclusion

PVT1 may act as an oncogene in breast cancer through binding miR-128-3p and UPF1 and represents a potential target for BC therapeutic development.

Long noncoding RNA PVT1-214 promotes proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer by stabilizing Lin28 and interacting with miR-128.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in human cancer, but their mechanisms of action are largely unknown. In this study, we investigated lncRNA alterations that contribute to colorectal cancer (CRC) through microarray expression profiling in CRC patient samples. Here, we report that the CRC-associated lncRNA PVT1-214 is a key regulator of CRC development and progression; patients with high PVT1-214 expression had a shorter survival and poorer prognosis. In vitro and in vivo investigation of the role of PVT1-214 revealed a complex integrated phenotype affecting cell growth, stem-like properties, migration, and invasion. Furthermore, using RNA pull-down and mass spectrometry, we found that Lin28 (also known as Lin28A), a highly conserved RNA-binding protein, is associated with PVT1-214. Strikingly, we found that PVT1-214 not only upregulated Lin28 protein expression in CRC cells by stabilizing Lin28, but also participated in crosstalk with Lin28 mRNA through competition for miR-128 binding, imposing an additional level of post-transcriptional regulation. In addition, we further show that PVT1-214 repressed expression of let-7 family miRNAs, which was abrogated by Lin28 knockdown. Taken together, our findings support a model in which the PVT1-214/Lin28/let-7 axis serves as a critical regulator of CRC pathogenesis, which may simulate a new direction for CRC therapeutic development.

Long noncoding RNA MIR4435-2HG promotes hepatocellular carcinoma proliferation and metastasis through the miR-22-3p/YWHAZ axis.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play the critical biological role in many malignant tumours. MIR4435-2HG has been proven to be a novel oncogenic lncRNA. However, the exact role and mechanism of MIR4435-2HG in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain unclear. Here, we found that MIR4435-2HG is overexpressed in HCC tissue compared to normal controls and that high level of MIR4435-2HG indicates a poorer prognosis in HCC patients. MIR4435-2HG enhances the growth and metastasis ability of HCC cells. MIR4435-2HG promotes the expression of YWHAZ by sponging miR-22-3p to liberate YWHAZ mRNA transcripts. MIR4435-2HG facilitates the proliferation and metastasis of HCC by modulating the miR-22-3p/YWHAZ axis. These results demonstrated the role and mechanism of MIR4435-2HG in malignant progression of HCC. MIR4435-2HG may be used as the prognostic marker and treatment target for the patient with HCC.

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.

Long noncoding RNA PVT1 regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of ARPE-19 cells <i>in vitro</i> via the miR-1301-3p/KLF7 axis.

Project description:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) as a frequent diabetic microvascular complication shows signs in one-third of diabetic patients. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have drawn increasing attention because of their regulatory roles in DR. LncRNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) is documented to be upregulated in diabetes-related diseases, while its effects in DR remains unexplored. ARPE-19 cells under the treatment of high-glucose (HG) were used as DR cell models. The gene expression in ARPE-19 cells was examined using RT-qPCR. The viability and apoptosis of ARPE-19 cells were determined by MTT and TUNEL assays. The levels of inflammation-associated proteins or mRNA were measured using western blot. Luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull down assay were conducted for the exploration of the underlying mechanism of PVT1. PVT1 was revealed to be upregulated in DR cell models. Silencing of PVT1 promoted the viability and inhibited apoptosis of HG-stimulated ARPE-19 cells. The results revealed that PVT1 can bind with miR-1301-3p. PVT1 negatively modulated miR-1301-3p expression. Additionally, KLF7 was targeted by miR-1301-3p. PVT1 upregulated KLF7 expression by binding with miR-1301-3p. The silenced PVT1-mediated influence on cell viability and cell apoptosis was rescued by overexpression of KLF7. PVT1 suppresses proliferation and promotes apoptosis of ARPE-19 cells treated with HG in vitro by binding with miR-1301-3p to upregulate KLF7.

LINC01393, a Novel Long Non-Coding RNA, Promotes the Cell Proliferation, Migration and Invasion through MiR-128-3p/NUSAP1 Axis in Glioblastoma.

Project description:Nucleolar and spindle-associated protein 1 (NUSAP1) is a potential molecular marker and intervention target for glioblastoma (GBM). In this study, we aim to investigate upstream regulatory lncRNAs and miRNAs of NUSAP1 through both experimental and bioinformatic methods. We screened upstream lncRNAs and miRNAs of NUSAP1 through multiple databases based on ceRNA theory. Then, in vitro and in vivo experiments were performed to elucidate the relevant biological significance and regulatory mechanism among them. Finally, the potential downstream mechanism was discussed. LINC01393 and miR-128-3p were screened as upstream regulatory molecules of NUSAP1 by TCGA and ENCORI databases. The negative correlations among them were confirmed in clinical specimens. Biochemical studies revealed that overexpression or knockdown of LINC01393 respectively enhanced or inhibited malignant phenotype of GBM cells. MiR-128-3p inhibitor reversed LINC01393 knockdown-mediated impacts on GBM cells. Then, dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay were conducted to validate LINC01393/miR-128-3p/NUSAP1 interactions. In vivo, LINC01393-knockdown decreased tumor growth and improved mice survival, while restoration of NUSAP1 partially reversed these effects. Additionally, enrichment analysis and western blot revealed that the roles of LINC01393 and NUSAP1 in GBM progression were associated with NF-κB activation. Our findings showed that LINC01393 sponged miR-128-3p to upregulate NUSAP1, thereby promoting GBM development and progression via activating NF-κB pathway. This work deepens understanding of GBM mechanisms and provides potential novel therapeutic targets for GBM.

LncRNA PVT1 regulates atrial fibrosis via miR-128-3p-SP1-TGF-β1-Smad axis in atrial fibrillation.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) has been shown to be associated with liver fibrosis. Nevertheless, the role of PVT1 in atrial fibrosis remains undefined. This study aims to elucidate the pathophysiological role of lncRNA PVT1 in the regulation of atrial fibrosis and to explore the underlying mechanism.MethodsExpression of PVT1, miR-128-sp, and Sp1 were examined in human atrial muscle tissues and angiotensin-II (Ang-II)-induced human atrial fibroblasts. Furthermore, the role of PVT1 in regulating atrial fibrosis in Ang-II-treated human atrial fibroblasts and Ang-II-induced atrial fibrosis in mice was investigated. Moreover, the interaction among PVT1, miR-128-3p, and Sp1 were examined using bioinformatics, expression correlation analysis, gain- or loss-of-function assays, RIP assays, and luciferase reporter assays. The involvement of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1)/Smad pathway in this process was also explored.ResultsPVT1 was increased in atrial muscle tissues from AF patients and positively with collagen I and collagen III. In vitro assay revealed that PVT1 overexpression facilitated the Ang-II-induced atrial fibroblasts proliferation, collagen production, and TGF-β1/Smad signaling activation, whereas PVT1 knockdown caused the opposite effect. In vivo assay further confirmed that PVT1 knockdown attenuated the Ang-II-induced mouse atrial fibrosis. Mechanically, PVT1 acted as a sponge for miR-128-3p to facilitate Sp1 expression, thereby activating the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway.ConclusionLncRNA PVT1 promotes atrial fibrosis via miR-128-3p-SP1-TGF-β1-Smad axis in atrial fibrillation.

Long noncoding RNA PVT1 promoted gallbladder cancer proliferation by epigenetically suppressing miR-18b-5p via DNA methylation.

Project description:Gallbladder cancer (GBC) accounts for 85-90% malignancies of the biliary tree worldwide. Considerable evidence has demonstrated that dysregulation of lncRNAs is involved in the progression of cancer. LncRNA PVT1 has been reported to play important roles in various cancers, but its role in gallbladder cancer remains unknown. In the present study, we found that PVT1 was upregulated in GBC tissues and cells, and its upregulation was related with poor prognosis in GBC patients. PVT1 promoted GBC cells proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, PVT1 recruited DNMT1 via EZH2 to the miR-18b-5p DNA promoter and suppressed the transcription of miR-18b-5p through DNA methylation. Moreover, HIF1A was proved to be the downstream target gene of miR-18b-5p and PVT1 regulated GBC cells proliferation via HIF1A. In conclusion, our studies clarified the PVT1/miR-18b-5p/HIF1A regulation axis and indicated that PVT1 could be a potential therapeutic target for GBC.

Long Non-Coding RNA LINC01569 Promotes Proliferation and Metastasis in Colorectal Cancer by miR-381-3p/RAP2A Axis.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) display regulatory function flexibly in tumor onset and developments. Our study aimed to delve into the roles of lncRNA LINC01569 (LINC01569) in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression to study the potential mechanisms.MethodsThe genetic expression profiles of miR-381-3p and LINC01569 were measured by RT-PCR. The subcellular localization of LINC01569 in CRC cells was identified using subcellular fractionation location. Loss-of-function assays were performed to explore the potential effects of LINC01569 on CRC progression. Dual-luciferase reporter analysis was employed to verify the binding connections among LINC01569, miR-381-3p, and RAP2A.ResultsLINC01569 expression was distinctly increased in CRC. Curiously, if LINC01569 is removed, CRC cells will not migrate, proliferate, and invade remarkably. Molecular mechanism exploration uncovered that LINC01569 acted as a ceRNA competing with RAP2A to bind with miR-381-3p. Furthermore, rescue experiments corroborated the fact that miR-381-3p suppression reversed the inhibitory actions of LINC01569 knockdown on the expression of RAP2A and CRC progression.ConclusionOverall, our findings indicate that LINC01569 plays a key role in CRC development by means of aiming at the miR-381-3p/RAP2A axis and can be equivalent to an underlying medicinal target to save CRC patients.

Long noncoding RNA SNHG6 promotes proliferation and angiogenesis of cholangiocarcinoma cells through sponging miR-101-3p and activation of E2F8.

Project description:Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) development is an extremely complex process with alterations occurring in numerous genes. SNHG6, a validated lncRNA, has been reported to regulate the expression of multiple tumor-related genes in hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer and breast cancer. Here, we elucidated the function and possible molecular mechanisms of SNHG6 in human CCA cells. Our results proved that the expression SNHG6 was upregulated in CCA tissues and cell lines. Ectopic expression of SNHG6 promoted cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, migration, and angiogenesis in CCA cells, whereas knockdown of SNHG6 repressed these cellular processes. Further mechanistic studies revealed that SNHG6 could compete with the transcription factor E2F8 to bind with miR-101-3p, thus affecting E2F8 expression. Taken together, these results provided a comprehensive analysis of the role of SNHG6 in CCA cells and offered important clues to understand the key roles of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) mechanisms in human cholangiocarcinoma.

TOP2A promotes proliferation and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma regulated by miR-144-3p.

Project description:Topoisomerase II alpha (TOP2A) is an important nuclear protein which is found in various types of cancers. Whether TOP2A plays an important role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. Through bioinformatic analysis and clinical specimen verification, we found that TOP2A is highly expressed in HCC and is associated with poor prognosis. Knockdown and overexpression of TOP2A can respectively inhibit or promote proliferation, metastasis and invasion of HCC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanismly, TOP2A activates cell cycle progression from G2 to M phase by inhibiting the phosphorylation of CHK1 and promotes Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. We further confirmed that TOP2A is a direct target of miR-144-3p whose overexpressing can partially reverse the effect of TOP2A in HCC cells. Our data suggested that TOP2A functions by promoting the proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT process of HCC and can be considered as a potential target for the treatment of HCC.
