LncRNA TP73-AS1 promotes nasopharyngeal carcinoma progression through targeting miR-342-3p and M2 polarization via exosomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a deadly cancer, mainly presenting in southeast and east Asia. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play essential roles in cancer progression. Exosomes are critical for intercellular communication. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the functional lncRNAs in NPC and its relevant mechanisms.

Methods

Data from public databases were utilized to screen for functional lncRNAs in NPC. Functional and mechanical experiments were performed to determine the role of lncRNAs in NPC and its relative molecular mechanisms. Exosomes derived from NPC cells were isolated to determine their function in tumor-associated macrophages.

Results

LncRNA TP73-AS1 was increased in NPC cells and tissues and was associated with a poor prognosis. TP73-AS1 overexpression promoted proliferation, colony formation, and DNA synthesis of NPC cells while TP73-AS1 knockdown showed opposite roles. TP73-AS1 could directly bind with miR-342-3p. MiR-342-3p overexpression attenuated the effect of TP73-AS1 in NPC cells. Furthermore, TP73-AS1 was transferred by exosomes to promote M2 polarization of macrophages. Lastly, exosomal TP73-AS1 enhanced the motility and tube formation of macrophages.

Conclusions

Together, this study suggests that TP73-AS1 promotes NPC progression through targeting miR-342-3p and exosome-based communication with macrophages and that TP73-AS1 might be an emerging biomarker for NPC.

Tumor-derived exosomes deliver the tumor suppressor miR-3591-3p to induce M2 macrophage polarization and promote glioma progression.

Project description:Exosomes can selectively secrete harmful metabolic substances from cells to maintain cellular homeostasis, and complex crosstalk occurs between exosomes and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the glioma immune microenvironment. However, the precise mechanisms by which these exosome-encapsulated cargos create an immunosuppressive microenvironment remain unclear. Herein, we investigated the effect of glioma-derived exosomes (GDEs) on macrophage polarization and glioma progression. We performed sequencing analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and tumor tissues from glioma patients to identify functional microRNAs (miRNAs). High levels of miR-3591-3p were found in CSF and GDEs but not in normal brain tissue or glial cells. Functionally, GDEs and miR-3591-3p significantly induced M2 macrophage polarization and increased the secretion of IL10 and TGFβ1, which in turn promoted glioma invasion and migration. Moreover, miR-3591-3p overexpression in glioma cell lines resulted in G2/M arrest and markedly increased apoptosis. Mechanistically, miR-3591-3p can directly target CBLB and MAPK1 in macrophages and glioma cells, respectively, and further activate the JAK2/PI3K/AKT/mTOR, JAK2/STAT3, and MAPK signaling pathways. In vivo experiments confirmed that macrophages lentivirally transduced with miR-3591-3p can significantly promote glioma progression. Thus, our study demonstrates that tumor-suppressive miR-3591-3p in glioma cells can be secreted via exosomes and target TAMs to induce the formation of an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Collectively, these findings provide new insights into the role of glioma exosomal miRNAs in mediating the establishment of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and show that miR-3591-3p may be a valuable biomarker and that blocking the encapsulation of miR-3591-3p into exosomes may become a novel immunotherapeutic strategy for glioma.

miR-3184-3p enriched in cerebrospinal fluid exosomes contributes to progression of glioma and promotes M2-like macrophage polarization.

Project description:Liquid biopsy is a novel strategy for tumour diagnosis. The contents of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) exosomes could reflect glioma status, hence sampling exosomes from CSF is a means of liquid biopsy for glioma. However, few studies have focused on the function of microRNAs in CSF exosomes. In this study, we found that miR-3184-3p was enriched in CSF exosomes in glioma patients and was downregulated after tumour resection. We found that miR-3184 facilitates glioma progression in two ways. On the one hand, miR-3184 directly promotes proliferation, migration, and invasion while inhibiting apoptosis in glioma. On the other hand, miR-3184 in glioma-derived exosomes polarizes macrophages to an M2-like phenotype, which further aggravates tumour progression. Overall, the current findings uncovered a new mechanism and highlighted the significant role of miR-3184 in glioma progression. Furthermore, exosomal miR-3184 could be a considerable factor with potential applications in glioma diagnosis and treatment in the future.

Knockdown of lncRNA SNHG16 suppresses multiple myeloma cell proliferation by sponging miR-342-3p.

Project description:Background:Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is closely associated with development and prognosis of human cancers. LncRNA SNHG16 is reportedly involved in human cancer; however, its roles in multiple myeloma (MM) remain unclear. Methods:In this study, we investigated the function and molecular mechanisms of SNHG16 in MM. MM cells were transfected with si-SNHG16 or si-NC. SNHG16 expression levels was measured by qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation was monitored using the MTS. Flow cytometry assay was performed to measure the cell cycle and apoptosis. Luciferase reporter assay were performed to confirm the sponged miRNAs of SNHG16. Results:SNHG16 expression was up-regulated in MM tissues. SNHG16 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, arrested cell cycle transition from G1 to S phase, and promoted the apoptosis of MM cells. Moreover, SNHG16 knockdown promoted cleaved-Caspase-3, cleaved-Caspase-9, Foxa3a, and Bax expression, while markedly inhibiting CCND1, Bcl-2, Cyclin D1, PI3K, and p-AKT expression in MM cells. miR-342-3p was a direct target of SNHG16. SNHG16 knockdown significantly increased miR-342-3p expression in MM cells. Overexpression miR-342-3p markedly suppressed cell proliferation, arrested cell cycle transition from G1 to S phase, and promoted apoptosis of MM cells. Overexpression of miR-342-3p markedly promoted cleaved-Caspase-3/-9, Foxa3a, and Bax expression, and inhibited CCND1, Bcl-2, Cyclin D1, PI3K, and p-AKT expression in MM cells. Additionally, repression of miR-342-3p could rescue the effect of SNHG16 knockdown on MM cell proliferation, cycle arrest, apoptosis, and related protein expression. Conclusion:Knockdown of lncRNA SNHG16 suppresses MM cell proliferation by sponging miR-342-3p, implicating SNHG16 as a novel therapeutic target for MM.

LncRNA TTN‑AS1 promotes endometrial cancer by sponging miR‑376a‑3p.

Project description:Increasing research has demonstrated that lncRNAs participate in the development of multiple cancer types. However, the role of TTN‑AS1 in endometrial cancer (EC) remains unknown. The present study aimed to explore the function of titin‑antisense RNA1 (TTN‑AS1) in EC progression and the underlying mechanisms. qRT‑PCR was performed to assess the TTN‑AS1 expression patterns in EC tissues and cell lines. Loss of function experiments were carried out to estimate the effects of TTN‑AS1 on EC cell proliferation, migration and invasion. To reveal the underlying mechanisms, informatics tools were used to predict the targets. Rescue experiments were performed to investigate the TTN‑AS1‑regulated miR‑376a‑3p/pumilio homolog 2 (PUM2) axis involved. The results of the present study revealed that TTN‑AS1 was highly expressed in both EC tissues and cell lines, and TTN‑AS1 knockdown inhibited EC cell proliferation, migration and invasion. With respect to the mechanisms, miR‑376a‑3p was revealed to be targeted by TTN‑AS1, and reversed the effects on EC development induced by TTN‑AS1. In addition, PUM2 was positively regulated by TTN‑AS1, and miR‑376a‑3p mediated the regulation between them. Furtherly, in vivo experiments confirmed the results. Collectively, TTN‑AS1 enhanced EC cell proliferation and metastasis by targeting the miR‑376a‑3p/PUM2 axis, which may shed light on EC diagnosis and treatment.

Down-regulated lncRNA SBF2-AS1 in M2 macrophage-derived exosomes elevates miR-122-5p to restrict XIAP, thereby limiting pancreatic cancer development.

Project description:Evidence has indicated that M2 macrophages promote the progression of cancers, but few focus on the ability of M2 macrophage-derived exosomes in pancreatic cancer (PC). This study aims to explore how M2 macrophages affect malignant phenotypes of PC through regulating long non-coding RNA SET-binding factor 2 antisense RNA 1 (lncRNA SBF2-AS1)/microRNA-122-5p (miR-122-5p)/X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) axis. THP-1 cells were transformed into M1 macrophages by lipopolysaccharide and interferon-? treatment, and into M2 macrophages after interleukin-4 treatment. The PANC-1 PC cell line with the largest lncRNA SBF2-AS1 expression was selected, and M2 macrophage-derived exosomes were isolated and identified. A number of assays were applied for the examination of lncRNA SBF2-AS1 expression, PC cell biological functions and subcellular localization of lncRNA SBF2-AS1. XIAP expression was detected, along with the interaction among lncRNA SBF2-AS1, miR-122-5p and XIAP. M2 macrophage exosomal lncRNA SBF2-AS1 expression's effects on the tumorigenic ability of PANC-1 cells in nude mice were also investigated. M2 macrophage-derived exosomes promoted progression of PC cells. Overexpressed lncRNA SBF2-AS1 promoted progression of PC cells. LncRNA SBF2-AS1 was found to act as a competing endogenous RNA to repress miR-122-5p and up-regulate XIAP. Constrained lncRNA SBF2-AS1 in M2 macrophage-derived exosomes contributed to restraining tumorigenic ability of PC cells. Collectively, our study reveals that constrained lncRNA SBF2-AS1 in M2 macrophage-derived exosomes increases miR-122-5p expression to restrain XIAP expression, which further inhibits PC progression.

lncRNA FOXD2-AS1 promotes hemangioma progression through the miR-324-3p/PDRG1 pathway.

Project description:Background:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) FOXD2 adjacent opposite strand RNA 1 (FOXD2-AS1) are reported could function as tumor promoter in several cancers. However, its role in hemangioma was not reported to yet. Methods:Expression level of FOXD2-AS1 in hemangioma tissues and cells was explored using quantitative reverse-time PCR. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assay, wound-healing assay, and transwell invasion assay were conducted to measure the roles of FOXD2-AS1. In addition, the levels of markers for proliferation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition were investigated. Connection of FOXD2-AS1 and mcroRNA-324-3p (miR-324-3p) or miR-324-3p and p53 and DNA damage regulated 1 (PDRG1) was analyzed with bioinformatic analysis method and dual-luciferase activity reporter assay. Results:Here, we found that FOXD2-AS1 was highly expressed in proliferating-phase hemangioma tissues compared with the involuting-phase hemangioma tissues. Functionally, FOXD2-AS1 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Conversely, overexpression of FOXD2-AS1 promoted tumor growth in vitro. Mechanistically, FOXD2-AS1 inversely regulated miR-324-3p abundance in hemangioma cells. We also found FOXD2-AS1 acted as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) by directly sponging miR-324-3p to regulate PDRG1 expression. In addition, the knockdown of PDRG1 reversed the stimulation effects of FOXD2-AS1 overexpression on HA cells. Conclusion:To conclude, our study sheds novel light on the biological roles of FOXD2-AS1 in hemangioma, which may help the development of targeted therapy method for cancer.

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.

Long Non-Coding RNA TP73-AS1 Promotes the Development of Lung Cancer by Targeting the miR-27b-3p/LAPTM4B Axis.

Project description:Purpose:Long non-coding RNA P73 antisense RNA 1T (TP73-AS1) is a newly discovered lncRNA involved in the occurrence and development of several cancers. However, its role in lung cancer has not been well investigated yet. Methods:The expressions of TP73-AS1, microRNA-27b-3p (miR-27b-3p) and lysosomal-associated protein transmembrane-4 Beta (LAPTM4B) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were detected by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), Annexin V-FITC/PI and transwell assays, respectively. Tumor xenografts were applied to explore the role of TP73-AS1 in vivo. The target relationship was predicted by StarBase v.2.0 or TargetScan and confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. Pearson's coefficient assay was applied to assess the expression correlation between two groups. Protein expression levels were detected by Western blot. Results:We found that TP73-AS1 was strikingly up-regulated in lung cancer tissues and cells. TP73-AS1 depletion inhibited the growth and metastasis of lung cancer cells in vitro. Furthermore, TP73-AS1 could act as an endogenous sponge by directly binding miR-27b-3p, and a notable inverse correlation between them was also discovered. Importantly, knockdown of miR-27b-3p could reverse the inhibitory effects of TP73-AS1 depletion on the growth and metastasis of lung cancer cells. Besides, LAPTM4B was directly targeted by miR-27b-3p and could be co-regulated by TP73-AS1 and miR-27b-3p in lung cancer cells. Silencing TP73-AS1 hampered tumor growth by regulating miR-27b-3p/LAPTM4B axis in vivo. Conclusion:TP73-AS1 promoted the progression of lung cancer through regulating miR-27b-3p/LAPTM4B axis and it might be a potential target for diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
