Long non-coding RNA DCST1-AS1/hsa-miR-582-5p/HMGB1 axis regulates colorectal cancer progression.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are related to the initiation and progression of tumor and regulate various cellular processes including growth, invasion, migration, and apoptosis. Understanding the roles and mechanisms of lncRNAs in regulating cancer progression is crucial for formulating novel therapeutic strategies. Although lncRNA DCST1-antisense RNA 1(AS1) has been implicated in several cancers, its role in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains to be explored. This study focuses on elucidating the function of lncRNA DCST1-AS1 in CRC development and its underlying mechanism. We found that the expression of lncRNA DCST1-AS1 was up-regulated in CRC tissues and cell lines, and CRC patients with high lncRNA DCST1-AS1 expression were associated with a poor prognosis. Loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiment in CRC cell lines confirmed that lncRNA DCST1-AS1 promoted the malignant phenotype of CRC cells, including cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion. In addition, we identified the binding sites between lncRNA DCST1-AS1 and hsa-miR-582-5p, and between hsa-miR-582-5p and High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) through DIANA Tools and TargetScan database, which was further confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Functional assay further confirmed the crucial role of lncRNA DCST1-AS1/hsa-miR-582-5p/HMGB1 axis in modulating the malignant phenotype of CRC cells. Collectively, our data suggest that lncRNA DCST1-AS1 regulates the aggressiveness of CRC cells through hsa-miR-582-5p/HMGB1 axis. Our study provides novel insight into the mechanism of lncRNA DCST1-AS1 in CRC cells for targeted therapy.

Long Non-Coding RNA ZEB2-AS1 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression by Regulating The <i>miR-582-5p/FOXC1</i> Axis.

Project description:ObjectiveLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) feature prominently in tumors. Reportedly, lncRNA zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 antisense RNA 1 (ZEB2-AS1) is aberrantly expressed in a variety of tumors. The present study was aimed to explore ZEB2-AS1 functions and determine mechanism in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression.Materials and methodsIn this experimental study, expressions of ZEB2-AS1, microRNA (miR)-582-5p and forkhead box C1 (FOXC1) mRNA in HCC tissues and cell lines were detected via quantitative reveres transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). After establishing gain- and loss-of-functions models, cell counting kit-8, 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU), Transwell assays and flow cytometry analysis were conducted to examine HCC cell multiplication, migration, invasion and apoptosis, respectively. The targeted relationship between miR-582- 5p and ZEB2-AS1 was verified via dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Western blot was utilized for detecting FOXC1 expression in HCC cells after selectively regulating ZEB2-AS1 and miR-582-5p.ResultsIn HCC tissues and cells, ZEB2-AS1 expression was increased. High ZEB2-AS1 expression was related to relatively large tumor volume, increased tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and positive lymph node metastasis of the patients. ZEB2-AS1 overexpression facilitated HCC cell multiplication, migration, invasion and suppressed apoptosis, while ZEB2-AS1 knock-down caused the opposite effects. It was also confirmed that ZEB2-AS1 could competitively bind with miR-582-5p to repress its expression, and indirectly up-regulate FOXC1 expression level in HCC cells.ConclusionThe current study revealed that ZEB2-AS1 was over-expressed in HCC tissues and cells. It also upregulated (FOXC1), through sponging miR-582-5p, to promote HCC progression. This provides new perspectives for elucidating the pathogenesis of HCC.

lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 promotes breast cancer progression by regulating the hsa‑miR‑195‑5p/NUAK2 axis.

Project description:Breast cancer is the second most prevalent cancer in women worldwide. Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as important regulators of tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis. lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 has been previously reported as a carcinogenic gene, however its role in breast cancer has yet to be investigated. The present study aimed to understand the function of lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 in breast cancer and examine the underlying molecular mechanisms. Sample tissues for downstream gene expression profiling were collected from patients with breast cancer (n=23). The effect of FGD5‑AS1 overexpression on cell viability, invasion and migration has been studied in breast cancer cells (MDA‑MB‑231). Changes in glycolysis were monitored by comparing glucose consumption, lactate production and ATP levels. Using StarBase and TargetScan databases a putative interaction between FGD5‑AS1, miR‑195‑5p and SNF1‑like kinase 2 (NUAK2) was predicted in silico. Expression levels of FGD5‑AS1, has‑miR‑195‑5p and NUAK2 were validated by reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and interactions were validated using dual‑luciferase reporter assays and RNA pull‑down. High expression of lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 was detected in breast cancer tissue samples and disease model cell lines. Silencing of FGD5‑AS1 led to decreased cell proliferation, migration and invasion. It was identified that at a molecular level FGD5‑AS1 serves as a sponge of miR‑195‑5p and alters the expression of its downstream target gene NUAK2. In breast cancer lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 serve a key role in glycolysis and tumor progression via the miR‑195‑5p/NUAK2 axis. The findings of the present study indicated FGD5‑AS1 as a candidate target for intervention in patients with breast cancer.

Non-coding RNA MFI2-AS1 promotes colorectal cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion through miR-574-5p/MYCBP axis.

Project description:ObjectiveLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) play essential roles in the tumour progression. LncRNAs mostly act as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) by sponging miRNAs. This study aimed to study the association of a novel lncRNA MFI2-AS1 with miR-574-5p/MYCBP axis in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC).MethodsNinety-four CRC tissues and paired adjacent non-tumour tissues were included in our study. The relative expression level of MFI2-AS1 was detected, and its relationship with clinico-pathological factors was analysed. Then, the CRC cells lines (LoVo and RKO) were transfected with MFI2-AS1 siRNA, miR-574-5p mimics and inhibitors. Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cell cycle distribution and DNA damage in response to different transfection conditions were examined. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to identify the target interactions between MFI2-AS1 and miR-574-5p, miR-574-5p and MYCBP.ResultsLncRNA MFI2-AS1 and MYCBP were up-regulated in CRC tissues when compared with adjacent non-tumour tissues. The expression levels of MFI2-AS1 were significantly associated with tumour histological grade, lymph and distant metastasis, TNM stage and vascular invasion. Both MFI2-AS1 siRNA and miR-574-5p mimics inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion in LoVo and RKO cells. The transfection of miR-574-5p inhibitor showed MFI2-AS1 siRNA-induced changes in CRC cells. Dual-luciferase reporter assay revealed target interactions between MFI2-AS1 and miR-574-5p, miR-574-5p and MYCBP.ConclusionsThese findings suggested that lncRNA MFI2-AS1 and MYCBP have promoting effects in CRC tissues. LncRNA MFI2-AS1 promoted CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion through activating MYCBP and by sponging miR-574-5p.

Long Non-Coding RNA LOXL1-AS1 Enhances Colorectal Cancer Proliferation, Migration and Invasion Through miR-708-5p/CD44-EGFR Axis.

Project description:Introduction:Colorectal cancer (CRC), the third most common cancer worldwide, involves a physiological and pathological long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) paradigm shift. It has been reported that the lncRNA LOXL1-AS1 affects tumor development for many kinds of cancers, but its functions and mechanisms in CRC remain unknown. Methods:Expression levels of LOXL1-AS1 and miR-708-5p within CRC tissues and cell lines were measured using qRT-PCR. The performance of gain-of-function and loss-of-function assays was aimed at examining the effects of LOXL1-AS1 and miR-708-5p; colony formation and cell viability assays were carried out to measure cell multiplication; and Transwell migration and wound-healing assays were carried out for the measurement of cell migration and invasion. Luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the interactions between LOXL1-AS1 and miR-708-5p and between miR-708-5p and the CD44-EGFR signaling pathway. Finally, expression of CD44 and EGFR proteins was measured by Western blot and immunofluorescence assays. Results:In this study, we reveal that the regulation of lncRNA LOXL1-AS1 occurs within CRC based on the correlation with poor clinical outcomes. LOXL1-AS1 knockdown along with miR-708-5p overpresentation in CRC cell lines inhibited cell multiplication, migration, and invasion. The inhibiting effect of LOXL1-AS1 knockdown on CRC was reversed by upregulating the CD44-EGFR signal pathway. From the perspective of mechanism, LOXL1-AS1 imposes sponging upon miR-708-5p and thereby promotes the CD44-EGFR signal pathway in CRC cells. Discussion:This study demonstrated that lncRNA LOXL1-AS1 enhances multiplication, migration, invasion, and progression of CRC by sponging miR-708-5p to regulate the CD44-EGFR signal pathway.

MMP25-AS1/hsa-miR-10a-5p/SERPINE1 axis as a novel prognostic biomarker associated with immune cell infiltration in KIRC.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a significant role in multiple human cancers as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs). However, a systematic mRNA-microRNA (miRNA)-lncRNA network linked to kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) prognosis has not been described. In this study, we aimed to identify the prognosis-related ceRNA regulatory network and analyzed its relationship with immune cell infiltration to predict KIRC patient survival. The MMP25-AS1/hsa-miR-10a-5p/SERPINE1 ceRNA network related to the prognosis of KIRC was obtained through bioinformatics analysis based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Meanwhile, we constructed a three-gene-based survival predictor model, which could be referential for future clinical research. Methylation analyses suggested that the abnormal upregulation of the SERPINE1 likely resulted from hypomethylation. Furthermore, the immune infiltration analysis showed that the MMP25-AS1/hsa-miR-10a-5p/SERPINE1 axis could affect the changes in the tumor immune microenvironment and the development of KIRC by affecting the expression of chemokines (CCL4, CCL5, CXCL13, and XCL2). Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE) analysis indicated that the high expression of SERPINE1 might be related to tumor immune evasion in KIRC. In summary, the current study constructing the MMP25-AS1/hsa-miR-10a-5p/SERPINE1 ceRNA network might be a novel significant prognostic factor associated with the diagnosis and prognosis of KIRC.

Long non coding RNA OIP5?AS1 promotes metastasis of breast cancer via miR?340?5p/ZEB2 axis.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer in women with the highest number of related deaths which is caused by distal metastasis. Recently, integrated analysis of gene expression profile suggested widespread gene dysregulation in various types of cancer. Research in the past decade has focused on long non?coding RNAs (lncRNAs), particularly in cell proliferation, tumor progression and metastasis. OPA?interacting protein 5 antisense transcript 1 (OIP5?AS1) is an evolutionarily conserved long non?coding RNA that has been linked to oncogenesis in multiple cancers. In breast cancer, dysregulation of OIP5?AS1 was reported but the precise role in cancer development and progression remains unclear. In the present study, using small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting OIP5?AS1, it was shown that knockdown of OIP5?AS1 was associated with alteration of EMT markers and suppressed migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. Among the EMT?related transcription factors, ZEB1 and ZEB2 were significantly downregulated with OIP5?AS1 knockdown. Computational analysis and a dual?luciferase reporter system identified miR?340?5p was the target gene for OIP5?AS1. Further experiments verified the function of OIP5?AS1 in cell invasion was dependent on miR?340a?5p through regulating target gene ZEB2. In vivo study demonstrated that overexpressing OIP5?AS1 in breast cancer cells promoted lung metastasis in nude mice. The findings of the present study revealed the mechanism of OIP5?AS1 in breast cancer metastasis. Overall, our study may provide a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer metastasis.

Long noncoding RNA RHPN1-AS1 promotes colorectal cancer progression via targeting miR-7-5p/OGT axis.

Project description:Background:Rhophilin Rho GTPase binding protein 1 antisense RNA 1 (RHPN1-AS1) is a newly discovered oncogene in several diseases, such as breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and uveal melanoma. Nevertheless, its molecular role in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unknown. This paper explored the role of RHPN1-AS1 in CRC progression. Methods:qRT-PCR was used to detect relevant RNAs expression. CCK-8, EdU, flow cytometry, Transwell and western blot assays were performed to investigate the function of RHPN1-AS1 in CRC cells. Xenograft model was constructed to evaluate the effects of RHPN1-AS1 on tumor growth in vivo. Mechanical experiments were performed to investigate the relationship between relative genes. Results:RHPN1-AS1 was significantly overexpressed in CRC cell lines. Knockdown of RHPN1-AS1 could inhibit cell proliferation, while stimulating cell apoptosis in vitro. Cell migration and invasion abilities were greatly suppressed after silencing RHPN1-AS1. Besides, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) served as transcription factor of RHPN1-AS1. Moreover, miR-7-5p was identified as a target of RHPN1-AS1 and was negatively regulated by RHPN1-AS1 in CRC. MiR-7-5p inhibition rescued the oncogenic function of RHPN1-AS1. Additionally, O-GlcNAcylation transferase (OGT) was the downstream target of miR-7-5p. OGT overexpression could abrogate the anti-tumor effects of RHPN1-AS1 knockdown on CRC. Conclusion:RHPN1-AS1 regulates CRC by mediating OGT through sponging miR-7-5p, suggesting that RHPN1-AS1 might be a potential therapeutic target for CRC.

Long non-coding RNA AFAP1-AS1 accelerates the progression of melanoma by targeting miR-653-5p/RAI14 axis.

Project description:BackgroundMelanoma is the most aggressive skin cancer that derived from pigment cells, accounting for the majority of the skin-cancer-related deaths. Despite great development and evolution have been made in surgery, radiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy, the prognosis of melanoma patients exhibited no significant improvement. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are frequently dysregulated and involved in the development of cancers. LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 has been explored in various cancers, whereas its role and regulatory mechanism in melanoma are not well understood.MethodsThe expression of AFAP1-AS1 was detected by qRT-PCR. CCK-8, colony formation, transwell and western blot assays were performed to investigate the biological role of AFAP1-AS1 in melanoma. Male BALB/c nude mice were applied for in vivo experiments. The interaction among AFAP1-AS1, miR-653-5p and RAI14 was investigated by RNA pull down, RIP and luciferase reporter assays.ResultsAFAP1-AS1 was highly expressed in melanoma cell lines. Suppression of AFAP1-AS1 impaired cell proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in melanoma. Moreover, AFAP1-AS1 was a ceRNA of RAI14 by competitively binding with miR-653-5p. Besides, miR-653-5p overexpression or RAI14 inhibition could repress tumor growth. Eventually, rescue assays indicated that the function of AFAP1-AS1 in the cellular process of melanoma was dependent on miR-653-5p and RAI14.ConclusionsAFAP1-AS1 exerts its oncogenic function in melanoma by targeting miR-653-5p/RAI14 axis.

LncRNA NNT-AS1 contributes to the cisplatin resistance of cervical cancer through NNT-AS1/miR-186/HMGB1 axis.

Project description:Background:Cisplatin (DDP) is a major chemotherapeutic drug which was widely used for cervical cancer (CC) patients with advanced or recurrent although its limitation in the development of resistance. LncRNA nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase-antisense RNA1 (NNT-AS1) has been reported to be involved in the DDP resistance. However, the role of NNT-AS1 in DDP resistance in CC remain unknown. Methods:The mRNA expression of NNT-AS1, microRNA-186 (miR-186) and HMGB1 was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation and apoptosis abilities were measured via MTT assay or flow cytometry, respectively. Western blot was used to measure the expression level of HMGB1, Bax, Bcl-2, Cleaved-caspase 3, N-cadherin, Vimentin and E-cadherin. Cell migration and invasion abilities were analyzed using Transwell assay. The interaction among NNT-AS1, miR-186 and HMGB1 was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay. Murine xenograft model was established using stably transfected SiHa/DDP cells. Results:NNT-AS1 level was significantly elevated in CC tissues and cells, especially in DDP-resistant tumors and cell lines. Subsequently, loss-of function assays indicated that NNT-AS1 silence could attenuate DDP resistance by inhibiting proliferation, metastasis and EMT but inducing apoptosis in DDP-resistant CC cells. Besides that, knockdown of NNT-AS1 also antagonized DDP resistance in vivo. Bioinformatics predication revealed NNT-AS1 directly bound to miR-186 and HMGB1 was a target of miR-186. Additionally, NNT-AS1 could regulate HMGB1 expression via targeting miR-186. Furthermore, restoration experiments showed NNT-AS1 knockdown might improve DDP-sensitivity of CC cells via blocking HMGB1 expression by competitive interaction with miR-186. Conclusion:NNT-AS1 improved chemoresistance of DDP-resistant CC cells via modulating miR-186/HMGB1 axis.
