LINC00885 promotes cervical cancer progression through sponging miR-3150b-3p and upregulating BAZ2A.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most common malignancies affecting female worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly indicated as crucial participants and promising therapeutic targets in human cancers. The main objective of this study was to explore the functions and mechanism of LINC00885 in CC.

Methods

RT-qPCR and western blot were used to detect RNA and protein levels. Functional and mechanism assays were respectively done for the analysis of cell behaviors and molecular interplays.

Results

Long intergenic non-coding RNA 885 (LINC00885) was discovered to be upregulated in CC tissues and cell lines through bioinformatics analysis and RT-qPCR. Overexpression of LINC00885 promoted proliferation and inhibited apoptosis, whereas its silence exerted opposite effects. The cytoplasmic localization of LINC00885 was ascertained and furthermore, LINC00885 competitively bound with miR-3150b-3p to upregulate BAZ2A expression in CC cells. Rescue assays confirmed that LINC00885 regulated CC proliferation and apoptosis through miR-3150b-3p/BAZ2A axis. Finally, we confirmed that LINC00885 aggravated tumor growth through animal experiments.

Conclusions

LINC00885 exerted oncogenic function in CC via regulating miR-3150b-3p/BAZ2A axis. These findings suggested LINC00885 might serve as a potential promising therapeutic target for CC patients.

Circular RNA circFOXO3 promotes prostate cancer progression through sponging miR-29a-3p.

Project description:Circular RNA FOXO3 (CircFOXO3, also termed as Hsa_circ_0006404) is derived from exon 2 of forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) gene, and abnormal expression is shown in different diseases. However, whether circFOXO3 plays important roles in tumorigenesis and progression of prostate cancer (PCa) remains unclear. In this study, we found that circFOXO3 was up-regulated in both PCa tissues and serum samples. Moreover, circFOXO3 was positively correlated with the Gleason score in PCa samples. CircFOXO3 was observed to be up-regulated in Gleason score > 6 PCa samples compared with Gleason score = 6 PCa samples. Knock-down circFOXO3 could remarkably inhibit PCa cell cycle, proliferation and promote cell apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, we demonstrated circFOXO3 could act as miR-29a-3p sponge to up-regulate SLC25A15 expression by bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter assays and biotinylated RNA pull-down assays. SLC25A15 could reverse the tumour suppressing roles of knock-down circFOXO3 in PCa. Of note, we found that miR-29a-3p was down-regulated; however, SLC25A15 was overexpressed in PCa samples compared with normal tissues. In conclusion, circFOXO3 acts as a miR-29a-3p sponge to exhibit oncogenic activity that affects the cell cycle and cell apoptosis in PCa through transcriptional up-regulation of SLC25A15. Our analysis suggests circFOXO3 could act as promising prostate cancer biomarkers.

Circ_0084927 Facilitates Cervical Cancer Development via Sponging miR-142-3p and Upregulating ARL2

Project description:Background Cervical cancer is a fatal burden for women. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are important regulators in cancer development. Our study aimed to investigate the function and action mechanism of a novel circRNA, circ_0084927, in cervical cancer. Methods The expression of circ_0084927, miR-142-3p and ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 2 (ARL2) mRNA was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). For functional analyses, cell proliferation was assessed using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Cell cycle distribution was monitored by flow cytometry assay. Cell migration and cell invasion were evaluated by transwell assay. The interaction between miR-142-3p and circ_0084927 or ARL2 was predicted by the bioinformatics analysis and validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay (RIP) assay. The expression of ARL2 at the protein level was detected by Western blot. Animal tumor formation assay was performed to monitor the tumorigenicity of circ_0084927 in vivo. Results The expression of circ_0084927 and ARL2 was enhanced in cervical cancer tissues and cells, while the expression of miR-142-3p was opposite to them. Circ_0084927 knockdown significantly blocked cervical cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion and induced cell cycle arrest. MiR-142-3p was targeted by circ_0084927, and miR-142-3p inhibition reversed the effects of circ_0084927 knockdown. Besides, miR-142-3p bound to ARL2, and the inhibitory effects of miR-142-3p restoration on cell proliferation, cycle, migration and invasion were counteracted by ARL2 overexpression. More importantly, circ_0084927 upregulated ARL2 expression by sponging miR-142-3p. Circ_0084927 knockdown retarded tumor growth in vivo by regulating miR-142-3p and ARL2. Conclusion Circ_0084927 accelerated the progression of cervical cancer partly by mediating the miR-142-3p/ARL2 axis.

LncRNA BCAR4 promotes liver cancer progression by upregulating ANAPC11 expression through sponging miR?1261.

Project description:Liver cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the liver and can be divided into primary and secondary liver cancer. Long non?coding RNA (lncRNA) breast cancer anti?estrogen resistance 4 (BCAR4) has been demonstrated to promote the development of various types of cancer. However, the function of lncRNA BCAR4 in liver cancer remains unclear. In the present study, the expression of lncRNA BCAR4 was notably elevated in liver cancer compared with adjacent non?tumor tissues. Functional in vitro assays demonstrated that knockdown of lncRNA BCAR4 inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of Huh?7 cells. In addition, lncRNA BCAR4 was demonstrated to directly bind to microRNA (miR)?1261, and miR?1261 expression negatively correlated with the expression of lncRNA BCAR4. Through bioinformatics analysis, lncRNA BCAR4 was predicted to target anaphase?promoting complex subunit 11 (ANAPC11) through miR?1261. In addition, the results demonstrated that lncRNA BCAR4 increased the expression of ANAPC11 by inhibiting miR?1261 expression. Consistently, overexpression of ANAPC11 or inhibition of miR?1261 significantly rescued liver cancer cell proliferation induced by knockdown of lncRNA BCAR4. Collectively, the results of the present study demonstrated that lncRNA BCAR4 may promote liver cancer development by directly binding to miR?1261 and targeting ANAPC11.

Project description:BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs exert vital roles in several types of cancer. The objective of this study was to explore the role of LINC_00355 in gastric cancer (GC) progression and its potential mechanism.MethodsThe expression levels of LINC_00355 in GC tissues and cells were detected by quantitative real-time PCR, followed by assessing the effects of LINC_00355 knockdown or overexpression on cell properties. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was utilized to identify the relationship between LINC_00355 and microRNA (miR)-15a-5p and miR-15a-5p and PHD finger protein 19 (PHF19), followed by the rescue experiments.ResultsThe results showed that LINC_00355 was highly expressed in GC tissues and cells compared with the corresponding control. LINC_00355 knockdown decreased the viability, migration, and invasion and increased the accumulation of GC cells in G1 phase and apoptosis. Meanwhile, LINC_00355 downregulation markedly increased cleaved caspase 3 and cleaved poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase protein levels, whereas decreased cyclin D1, cyclin E, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 9, MMP2, and N-cadherin protein levels in GC cells. However, LINC_00355 overexpression had the opposite effects. It was verified that LINC_00355 upregulated the expression of PHF19 through sponging miR-15a-5p. Furthermore, PHF19 overexpression reversed the effect of LINC_00355 knockdown on GC cell properties, including cell viability, migration, invasion, and apoptosis.ConclusionsCollectively, these results suggest that LINC_00355 promotes GC progression by up-regulating PHF19 through sponging miR-15a-5p. Our findings may provide an important clinical basis for reversing the malignant phenotype of GC.

Project description:Ovarian cancer is a kind of cancer from the female genital tract; the molecular mechanism still needs to be explored. lncRNA plays a vital role in tumorigenesis and development. Our aim was to identify oncogenic lncRNAs in ovarian cancer and explore the potential molecular mechanism. SNHG15 was initially identified by using GEO datasets (GSE135886 and GSE119054) and validated by tumor tissues and the cell line, identifying that SNHG15 was upregulated in ovarian cancer. Besides, high SNHG15 indicated poor prognosis in ovarian cancer. Furthermore, knockdown SNHG15 suppresses ovarian cancer proliferation and promotes apoptosis. Mechanistically, SNHG15 promotes proliferation through upregulated CDK6 via sponging miR-370-3p. Taken together, our findings emphasize the important role of SNHG15 in ovarian cancer, suggesting that SNHG15 may be a promising target for ovarian cancer.

Project description:Increasing studies have found that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are aberrantly expressed and play important roles in the occurrence and development of human cancers. However, the function of circRNAs on environmental carcinogen-induced gastric cancer (GC) progression remains poorly elucidated. In the present study, hsa_circ_0110389 was identified as a novel upregulated circRNA in malignant-transformed GC cells through RNA-seq, and subsequent quantitative real-time PCR verified that hsa_circ_0110389 was significantly increased in GC tissues and cells. High hsa_circ_0110389 expression associates with advanced stages of GC and predicts poor prognosis. Knockdown and overexpression assays demonstrated that hsa_circ_0110389 regulates proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells in vitro. In addition, hsa_circ_0110389 was identified to sponge both miR-127-5p and miR-136-5p and SORT1 was validated as a direct target of miR-127-5p and miR-136-5p through multiple mechanism assays; moreover, hsa_circ_0110389 sponged miR-127-5p/miR-136-5p to upregulate SORT1 expression and hsa_circ_0110389 promoted GC progression through the miR-127-5p/miR-136-5p-SORT1 pathway. Finally, hsa_circ_0110389 knockdown suppressed GC growth in vivo. Taken together, our findings firstly identify the role of hsa_circ_0110389 in GC progression, which is through miR-127-5p/miR-136-5p-SORT1 pathway, and our study provides novel insight for the identification of diagnostic/prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for GC.

LncRNA LINC01503 aggravates the progression of cervical cancer through sponging miR-342-3p to mediate FXYD3 expression.

Project description:Cervical cancer (CC), an aggressive malignancy, has a high risk of relapse and death, mainly occurring in females. Accumulating investigations have confirmed the critical role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in diverse cancers. LncRNA LINC01503 has been reported as an oncogene in several cancers. Nonetheless, its role and molecular mechanism in CC have not been explored. In the present study, we found that FXYD3 expression was considerably up-regulated in CC tissues and cells. Moreover, FXYD3 deficiency conspicuously hampered cell proliferation and migration while facilitated cell apoptosis in CC cells. Subsequently, molecular mechanism experiments implied that FXYD3 was a downstream target gene of miR-342-3p, and FXYD3 expression was reversely mediated by miR-342-3p. Moreover, we discovered that LINC01503 acted as the endogenous sponge for miR-342-3p. Besides, LINC01503 negatively regulated miR-342-3p expression and positively regulated FXYD3 expression in CC. Rescue assays revealed that LINC01503 depletion-induced repression on CC progression could be partly recovered by miR-342-3p inhibition, and then the co-transfection of sh-FXYD3#1 rescued this effect. Conclusively, LINC01503 aggravated CC progression through sponging miR-342-3p to mediate FXYD3 expression, providing promising therapeutic targets for CC patients.

LncRNA LINC00689 Promotes the Progression of Gastric Cancer Through Upregulation of ADAM9 by Sponging miR-526b-3p.

Project description:Introduction:Increasing studies have demonstrated that noncoding RNAs, including miRNAs and lncRNAs, have vital roles in mediating cancer progression. However, the expression features and biological functions of LINC00689 in gastric cancer (GC) remain largely unknown. This study was designed to investigate the functions of LINC00689, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 as well as their interactions in GC. Methods:Real time PCR(RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of LINC0068, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 in both GC tissues or cell lines. Gain- and loss- of functions of assays were conducted to verify the role of LINC0068, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 in GC development. Cell proliferation were determined by CCK8 assay and transwell assay and scratch wound-healing assay were used to test cell invasion and migration. Further, the relationships between LINC00689 and miR-526b-3p, miR-526b-3p and ADAM9 were predicted by bioinformatics analysis and then proved by Luciferase reporter assay and RNA Immunoprecipitation(RIP) assay. Results:We found that LINC00689 was upregulated in GC tissues and positively correlated with advanced tumor stage and tumor size, while miR-526b-3p was downregulated. Furthermore, gain- and loss-of-function experiments revealed that LINC00689 promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of GC cells, while miR-526b-3p had the opposite effects. The underlying mechanisms indicated that LINC00689 functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by sponging miR-526b-3p in GC cells. Further investigations confirmed that ADAM9 was a direct target of miR-526b-3p and positively modulated the progression of GC. Conclusion:Our study suggests that LINC00689 functions as a novel oncogenic lncRNA in the development of GC by promoting ADAM9 expression through suppression of miR-526b-3p.

Circular RNA hsa_circ_0007367 promotes the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by sponging miR-6820-3p and upregulating YAP1 expression.

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play critical regulatory roles in cancer biological processes. Nevertheless, the contributions and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remain largely unexplored. Dysregulated circRNAs between cancerous tissues and matched adjacent normal tissues were identified by circRNA microarray in PDAC. The biological effect of hsa_circ_007367 both in vitro and in vivo was demonstrated by gain- and loss-of-function experiments. Further, dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays were performed to confirm the interaction among hsa_circ_007367, miR-6820-3p, and Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1). The expression of hsa_circ_007367 and YAP1 were detected by in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) using tissue microarray (TMA) in 128 PDAC samples. We first identified that a novel circRNA, hsa_circ_0007367, was markedly upregulated in PDAC tissues and cells. Functionally, in vivo and in vitro data indicated that hsa_circ_0007367 promotes the proliferation and metastasis of PDAC. Mechanistically, we confirmed that hsa_circ_0007367 could facilitate the expression of YAP1, a well-known oncogene, by sponging miR-6820-3p, which function as a tumor suppresser in PDAC cells. The results of ISH and IHC demonstrated that hsa_circ_0007367 and YAP1 were upregulated in PDAC tissues. Furthermore, clinical data showed that higher hsa_circ_0007367 expression was correlated with advanced histological grade and lymph node metastasis in PDAC patients. In conclusion, our findings reveal that hsa_circ_0007367 acts as an oncogene via modulating miR-6820-3p/YAP1 axis to promote the progression of PDAC, and suggest that hsa_circ_0007367 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for treatment of PDAC.

CXCL12/CXCR4 promotes inflammation-driven colorectal cancer progression through activation of RhoA signaling by sponging miR-133a-3p.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Activation of CXCL12/CXCR4 axis has been found to be associated with invasion and metastasis in many cancers. However, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Increasing data highlight that non-coding RNAs are linked to CRC progression. METHODS:The effects of CXCR4 were investigated using villin-CXCR4 transgenic mice model by flow cytometry assay, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot. The mechanism was explored through bioinformatics, luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. RESULTS:We found that high CXCR4 expression exacerbated colitis-associated cancer in villin-CXCR4 transgenic mice. CXCR4+/-Apcmin/+ compound mutant mice demonstrated higher colorectal tumorigenesis than Apcmin/+ mice. Furthermore, overexpression of CXCR4 was found to promote the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and macrophages in colonic tissue, accelerating colitis-associated and Apc mutation-driven colorectal tumorigenesis and progression. Notably, miR-133a-3p was found to be significantly decreased in HCT116 cells overexpressing CXCR4 by miRNA sequencing. miR-133a-3p was proved to target RhoA, which is involved in cytoskeletal reorganization that drive cell motility. Importantly, CXCL12/CXCR4-induced upregulation of lncRNA XIST functioned as a ceRNA to sponge miR-133a-3p, thereby liberating the repression of RhoA by miR-133a-3p. The negative correlation of miR-133a-3p with RhoA was also confirmed in human CRC tissues and CXCR4+/- mice. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings revealed the critical role of CXCR4 in promoting progression of inflammatory colorectal cancer through recruiting immunocytes and enhancing cytoskeletal remodeling by lncRNA XIST/ miR-133a-3p/ RhoA signaling. These results provide novel potential therapeutic targets for hindering CXCL12/CXCR4-induced CRC progression.
