CircCDK14 Promotes Tumor Progression and Resists Ferroptosis in Glioma by Regulating PDGFRA.

ABSTRACT: CircRNAs have garnered significant interest in recent years due to their regulation in human tumorigenesis, yet, the function of most glioma-related circRNAs remains unclear. In this study, using RNA-Seq, we screened differentially regulated circRNAs in glioma, in comparison to non-tumor brain tissue. Loss- and gain-of-function strategies were used to assess the effect of circCDK14 on tumor progression both in vitro and in vivo. Luciferase reporter, RNA pull-down and fluorescence in situ hybridization assays were carried out to validate interactions between circCDK14 and miR-3938 as well as miR-3938 and PDGFRA. Transmission electron microscopic observation of mitochondria, iron and reactive oxygen species assays were employed for the detection of circCDK14 effect on glioma cells' sensitivity to erastin-induced ferroptosis (Fp). Our findings indicated that circCDK14 was overexpressed in glioma tissues and cell lines, and elevated levels of circCDK14 induced poor prognosis of glioma patients. CircCDK14 promotes the migration, invasion and proliferation of glioma cells in vitro as well as tumorigenesis in vivo. An evaluation of the underlying mechanism revealed that circCDK14 sponged miR-3938 to upregulate oncogenic gene PDGFRA expression. Moreover, we also found that circCDK14 reduced glioma cells' sensitivity to Fp by regulating PDGFRA expression. In conclusion, circCDK14 induces tumor in glioma and increases malignant tumor behavior via the miR-3938/PDGFRA axis. Hence, the miR-3938/PDGFRA axis may be an excellent candidate of anti-glioma therapy.

circ_0082375 promotes the progression of glioma by regulating Wnt7B.

Project description:Circular RNAs contribute to the progression of glioma. However, the biological role and underlying mechanism of circ_0082375 in glioma remain unclear. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot assay were used to evaluate the expression levels of circ_0082375, microRNA-485-5p, and Wnt family member 7B (Wnt7B). The overall survival of glioma patients was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier curve. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration were detected by cell counting kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2 -deoxyuridine (EdU) staining, flow cytometry, and transwell assays, respectively. Glucose level and lactate production were determined using glucose and lactate assay kits. In vitro angiogenesis assay was used to evaluate the angiogenesis of glioma cells. The interaction between microRNA (miR)-485-5p and circ_0082375 or Wnt family member 7B (Wnt7B) was verified by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. A xenograft model was used to verify the function of circ_0082375 in vivo. circ_0082375 was upregulated in glioma tissues, and it was closely related to the prognosis of glioma patients. circ_0082375 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, glycolysis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and promoted cell apoptosis in glioma cells. irc_0082375 was a sponge of miR-485-5p, which directly targeted Wnt7B. Knockdown of circ_0082375 inhibited the malignancy, angiogenesis, and glycolysis of glioma cells in vitro by sponging miR-485-5p. Besides, circ_0082375 knockdown hampered the growth of glioma growth by regulating the miR-485-5p/Wnt7B axis in vivo. Altogether, circ_0082375 regulated miR-485-5p/Wnt7B axis to promote the malignancy, angiogenesis, and glycolysis of glioma cells, thereby contributing to the progression of glioma.

Neutrophil-induced ferroptosis promotes tumor necrosis in glioblastoma progression.

Project description:Tumor necrosis commonly exists and predicts poor prognoses in many cancers. Although it is thought to result from chronic ischemia, the underlying nature and mechanisms driving the involved cell death remain obscure. Here, we show that necrosis in glioblastoma (GBM) involves neutrophil-triggered ferroptosis. In a hyperactivated transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif-driven GBM mouse model, neutrophils coincide with necrosis temporally and spatially. Neutrophil depletion dampens necrosis. Neutrophils isolated from mouse brain tumors kill cocultured tumor cells. Mechanistically, neutrophils induce iron-dependent accumulation of lipid peroxides within tumor cells by transferring myeloperoxidase-containing granules into tumor cells. Inhibition or depletion of myeloperoxidase suppresses neutrophil-induced tumor cell cytotoxicity. Intratumoral glutathione peroxidase 4 overexpression or acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 depletion diminishes necrosis and aggressiveness of tumors. Furthermore, analyses of human GBMs support that neutrophils and ferroptosis are associated with necrosis and predict poor survival. Thus, our study identifies ferroptosis as the underlying nature of necrosis in GBMs and reveals a pro-tumorigenic role of ferroptosis. Together, we propose that certain tumor damage(s) occurring during early tumor progression (i.e. ischemia) recruits neutrophils to the site of tissue damage and thereby results in a positive feedback loop, amplifying GBM necrosis development to its fullest extent.

FoxM1 promotes glioma cells progression by up-regulating Anxa1 expression.

Project description:Forkhead box M1 (FoxM1) is a member of the forkhead transcription factor family and is overexpression in malignant gliomas. However, the molecular mechanisms by which FoxM1lead to glioma carcinogenesis and progression are still not well known. In the present study, we show that Anxa1 was overexpression in gliomas and predicted the poor outcome. Furthermore, Anxa1 closely related to the FoxM1 expression and was a direct transcriptional target of FoxM1. Overexpression of FoxM1 up-regulated Anxa1 expression, whereas suppression of FoxM1 expression down-regulated Anxa1 expression in glioma cells. Finally, FoxM1 enhanced the proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis in Anxa1-dependent manner both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings provide both clinical and mechanistic evidences that FoxM1 contributes to glioma development by directly up-regulating Anxa1 expression.

TRIM21 overexpression promotes tumor progression by regulating cell proliferation, cell migration and cell senescence in human glioma.

Project description:Molecular biomarkers combined with histopathological examination are of critical importance in the diagnosis and treatment of gliomas. Although recent studies have shown that many tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) family proteins could regulate the cell cycle, cell proliferation, and differentiation in cancers, the precise role of TRIM21 has been unknown in glioma. In this study, we analyzed TRIM21, which was upregulated in gliomas and identified its role in tumor proliferation, migration and drug resistance. By using immunohistochemical analysis, we found that the expression level of TRIM21 was upregulated in glioma specimens and the higher expression level of TRIM21 was associated with poorer clinical outcomes in glioma patients. Moreover, we demonstrated that TRIM21 could act as a regulator of the proliferation, cell cycle, and migration of glioma cells by gain- and loss-of function assays in vitro. In vivo, TRIM21 could also modulate glioma progression in murine intracranial xenografts. Furthermore, we found that TRIM21 suppressed cellular senescence via the p53-p21 pathway, and increased drug resistance in glioma cells by RNA-seq analysis, SA-β-Gal activity assay, and Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. These results indicated that TRIM21 is a novel regulator in the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy of gliomas.

CircNFIX promotes progression of glioma through regulating miR-378e/RPN2 axis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Circular RNA nuclear factor I X (circNFIX) has been reported to play an important role in glioma progression. However, the mechanism by which circNFIX participates in glioma progression remains poorly understood. METHODS:GERIA online were used to analyze the abnormally expressed genes in glioma tissues. The expression levels of circNFIX, microRNA (miR)-378e and Ribophorin-II (RPN2) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction or western blot. Cell cycle distribution, apoptosis, glycolysis, migration and invasion were determined by flow cytometry, special kit and trans-well assays, respectively. The target association between miR-378e and circNFIX or RPN2 was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation and pull-down. Xenograft model was established to investigate the role of circNFIX in vivo. RESULTS:The expression of circNFIX was enhanced in glioma tissues and cells compared with matched controls and high expression of circNFIX indicated poor outcomes of patients. Knockdown of circNFIX led to arrest of cell cycle, inhibition of glycolysis, migration and invasion and promotion of apoptosis in glioma cells. circNFIX was a sponge of miR-378e. miR-378e overexpression suppressed cell cycle process, glycolysis, migration and invasion but promoted apoptosis. miR-378e silence abated the suppressive role of circNFIX knockdown in glioma progression. RPN2 as a target of miR-378e was positively regulated via circNFIX by competitively sponging miR-378e. Silencing circNFIX decreased glioma xenograft tumor growth by regulating miR-378e/RPN2 axis. CONCLUSION:Knockdown of circNFIX inhibits progression of glioma in vitro and in vivo by increasing miR-378e and decreasing RPN2, providing a novel mechanism for understanding the pathogenesis of glioma.

Microglial Exosome miR-7239-3p Promotes Glioma Progression by Regulating Circadian Genes.

Project description:Glioma-associated microglial cells, a key component of the tumor microenvironment, play an important role in glioma progression. In this study, the mouse glioma cell line GL261 and the mouse microglia cell line BV2 were chosen. First, circadian gene expression in glioma cells co-cultured with either M1 or M2 microglia was assessed and the exosomes of M2-polarized and unpolarized BV-2 microglia were extracted. Subsequently, we labeled the exosomes with PKH67 and treated GL261 cells with them to investigate the exosome distribution. GL261 cell phenotypes and related protein expression were used to explore the role of M2 microglial exosomes in gliomas. Then a specific miR-7239-3p inhibitor was added to verify miR-7239-3p functions. Finally, the mouse subcutaneous tumorigenic model was used to verify the tumorigenic effect of M2 microglial exosomes in vivo. Our results showed that in gliomas co-cultured with M2 microglia, the expression of the BMAL1 protein was decreased (P < 0.01), while the expression of the CLOCK protein was increased (P < 0.05); opposite results were obtained in gliomas co-cultured with M1 microglia. After treatment with M2 microglial exosomes, the apoptosis of GL261 cells decreased (P < 0.001), while the viability, proliferation, and migration of GL261 cells increased. Increased expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin, and decreased E-cadherin expression occurred upon treatment with M2 microglial exosomes. Addition of an miR-7239-3p inhibitor to M2 microglial exosomes reversed these results. In summary, we found that miR-7239-3p in the glioma microenvironment is recruited to glioma cells by exosomes and inhibits Bmal1 expression. M2 microglial exosomes promote the proliferation and migration of gliomas by regulating tumor-related protein expression and reducing apoptosis.

UVRAG Promotes Tumor Progression through Regulating SP1 in Colorectal Cancer.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common type of cancer. The ultraviolet radiation resistance-associated gene (UVRAG) plays a role in autophagy and has been implicated in tumor progression and prognosis. However, the role of UVRAG expression in CRC has remained elusive. In this study, the prognosis was analyzed via immunohistochemistry, and the genetic changes were compared between the high UVRAG expression group and the low UVRAG expression group using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) data, and genetic changes were then identified by in vitro experiments. It was found that UVRAG could enhance tumor migration, drug resistance, and CC motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) expression to recruit macrophages by upregulating SP1 expression, resulting in poor prognosis of CRC patients. In addition, UVRAG could upregulate the expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). In summary, the relationship between UVRAG expression and the prognosis of CRC patients as well as the potential mechanisms in CRC were explored, providing evidence for the treatment of CRC.

Project description:Glioma is a fatal brain tumor characterized by rapid proliferation and treatment resistance. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered programmed cell death and plays a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of tumors. In this study, we identified ferroptosis specific markers to reveal the relationship between ferroptosis-related genes and glioma by analyzing whole transcriptome data from Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas, The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset, GSE16011 dataset, and the Repository of Molecular Brain Neoplasia Data dataset. Nineteen ferroptosis-related genes with clinical and pathological features of glioma were identified as highly correlated. Functional assays in glioma cell lines indicated the association of ferroptosis with temozolomide resistance, autophagy, and glioma cell migration. Therefore, the identified ferroptosis-related genes were significantly correlated with glioma progression.

Linc00475 promotes the progression of glioma by regulating the miR-141-3p/YAP1 axis.

Project description:Glioma is the most prevalent and lethal primary brain tumour. Abundant long non-coding RNAs ( lncRNAs) are aberrant and play crucial roles in the oncogenesis of glioma. The exact functions of linc00475 in glioma remain blurred. Here, we analysed the expression levels of linc00475 by qRT-PCR and discovered that linc00475 was up-regulated in glioma and predicted a poor prognosis in patients with glioma. Besides, inhibiting linc00475 restrained the progression of glioma in vitro and in vivo. Further experiments confirmed that linc00475 regulated the progression of glioma by acting as a sponge for miR-141-3p. Moreover, we detected the binding sites of linc00475 and miR-141-3p, the YAP1- 3'UTR and miR-141-3p by luciferase reporters. The rescue assays confirmed that inhibiting linc00475 restrained the progression of glioma through the miR-141-3p/YAP1 pathway. Collectively, our research demonstrates the key roles of linc00475 in glioma, which could be a promising therapeutic target.

High expression of B7-H6 in human glioma tissues promotes tumor progression.

Project description:B7-H6, a new member of B7-family ligand, also known as NCR3LG1, plays an important role in NK cells mediated immune responses. Many studies have shown that it is highly expressed in various human cancers, and its expression levels are significantly associated with cancer patients' clinicopathological parameters and postoperative prognoses. But, still the exact role of B7-H6 expression in human glioma remains elusive. In the present study, we have characterized the B7-H6 expression in the human glioma tissues as well as glioma cell lines, U87 and U251. We observed that B7-H6 was highly expressed in the human glioma tissues, and its expression was significantly associated with cancer progression. By using the RNA interference technology, we successfully ablated B7-H6 expression in human glioma cell lines to further study its contribution towards various biological features of this malignancy. Our study identified that the B7-H6 knockdown in U87 and U251 glioma cells significantly suppressed cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and enhanced apoptosis along with induction of cell cycle arrest. It thus suggested that B7-H6 play an important role in the regulation of the biological behavior of these glioma cells. However, the detailed mechanism of B7-H6 mediated regulation of glioma cancer cell transformation and its prognostic value merits further investigation.
