Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) MRPL23-AS1 promotes tumor progression and carcinogenesis in osteosarcoma by activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling via inhibiting microRNA miR-30b and upregulating myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9).

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) contributes to the occurrence and development of osteosarcoma (OS), although the underlying mechanism is not clear. In the present study, we showed that lncRNA MRPL23-AS1 was remarkably increased in OS tissues and cell lines. Stable knockdown of MRPL23-AS1 evidently attenuated cell viability and invasive ability, meanwhile inhibited in vivo tumor growth and dissemination. In terms of mechanism, luciferase reporter, RNA pull-down and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays showed that MRPL23-AS1 competitively interacted with miR-30b, increasing myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) expression, a trans- activator of β-catenin, resulting in the activation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, thereby promoting OS tumorigenesis and metastasis. Importantly, high MRPL23-AS1 was positively correlated with MYH9, while conversely correlated with miR-30b, suggesting that the regulatory axis of MRPL23-AS1/miR-30b/MYH9 does exist in OS. Clinically, OS patients with high MRPL23-AS1 had larger tumor size, higher stage and easier metastasis than those with low MRPL23-AS1, moreover, MRPL23-AS1 was identified as an adverse prognostic factor for OS survival. In conclusion, our results show that MRPL23-AS1 is a key oncogenic lncRNA in OS, targeting of MRPL23-AS1 may be a promising treatment for OS patients.

circATP2A2 promotes osteosarcoma progression by upregulating MYH9.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is a highly metastatic primary malignant tumor. CircRNA hsa_circ_0028173 (circATP2A2) has been uncovered to be related to the advancement of OS. However, the biological role of circATP2A2 in OS has not been validated. circATP2A2 and MYH9 were upregulated while miR-335-5p was downregulated in OS. OS patients with high circATP2A2 expression displayed a shorter overall survival and the area under curve of circATP2A2 was 0.77, manifesting that circATP2A2 might be a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. circATP2A2 silencing repressed OS cell proliferation and glycolysis in vivo and constrained OS cell proliferation, glycolysis, migration, and invasion in vitro. circATP2A2 regulated MYH9 expression through sponging miR-335-5p. MiR-335-5p inhibitor reversed the repressive effect of circATP2A2 knockdown on OS cell malignancy and glycolysis. MYH9 overexpression overturned miR-335-5p upregulation-mediated OS cell malignancy and glycolysis. circATP2A2 accelerated OS cell malignancy and glycolysis through upregulating MYH9 via sponging miR-335-5p, offering a promising target for OS treatment.

lncRNA GAS8-AS1 downregulates lncRNA UCA1 to inhibit osteosarcoma cell migration and invasion.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common type of primary bone tumor that mainly affects adolescents and young adults. The present study explored the role of lncRNA GAS8-AS1 in OS. METHODS:A total of 48 OS patients were selected from the 82 OS patients admitted by Luoyang Orthopedic Hospital of Henan Province between May 2010 and May 2013. Transient cell transfections, Transwell cell migration and invasion assay, RT-qPCR, and patient follow-up were carried out during the research. RESULTS:The results showed that GAS8-AS1 was downregulated, while UCA1 was upregulate in cancer tissues in comparison to adjacent non-cancer tissues of OS patients. GAS8-AS1 was not affected by clinical stage. Follow-up study showed that downregulated GAS8-AS1 in cancer tissues was closely correlated with poor survival. GAS8-AS1 and UCA1 were inversely correlated in cancer tissues. Overexpression of UCA1 failed to affect the expression of GAS8-AS1, while overexpression of GAS8-AS1 led to downregulated expression of UCA1 in OS cells, while the molecular mediators between these two lncRNAs are unknown. Overexpression of GAS8-AS1 did not affect OS cell proliferation but significantly inhibited cancer cell migration and invasion. Overexpression of UCA1 promoted the migration and invasion of OS cells and attenuated the effects of overexpressing GAS8-AS1. CONCLUSIONS:Therefore, GAS8-AS1 may inhibit OS cell migration and invasion by downregulating oncogenic UCA1.

lncRNA HCG11 suppresses human osteosarcoma growth through upregulating p27 Kip1.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignant bone cancer threatening children and young adults. Emerging evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in the progression of OS. Herein, we want to clarify the roles of lncRNA human leukocyte antigen complex group 11 (HCG11) in OS. Our data revealed that HCG11 expression is decreased in OS, which is a result of transcriptional repression of YY1. Low HCG11 level is closely associated with larger tumor size and shorter overall survival of OS patients. HCG11 negatively regulates cell proliferation, cell cycle, DNA replication in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. HCG11 can raise p27 Kip1 expression via binding to miR-942-5p and IGF2BP2, and p27 Kip1 acts as a key effector for HCG11 exerting biological functions. In conclusion, HCG11 is downregulated in OS, and restrains OS growth both in vitro and in vivo by raising p27 Kip1 expression via binding to miR-942-5p and IGF2BP2.

lncRNA MELTF-AS1 facilitates osteosarcoma metastasis by modulating MMP14 expression

Project description:Osteosarcoma is a highly aggressive cancer common in children and adolescents. There is still a lack of effective treatments for metastatic or recurrent osteosarcoma. The role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in osteosarcoma has gradually attracted attention. Here, we identified lncRNAs that were abnormally expressed in metastatic osteosarcoma through analyzing the sequencing data of osteosarcoma tissues and selected upregulated lncRNA MELTF-AS1 for detailed study. The qRT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of MELTF-AS1 was increased in osteosarcoma tissues and cells, and the high expression of MELTF-AS1 indicated a poor prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. The high expression of MELTF-AS1 in osteosarcoma was partly due to the transcriptional activation of RREB1. The results of transwell assays, scratch wound healing assays, and the tail vein injection lung metastasis model demonstrated that knocking down MELTF-AS1 inhibited metastasis ability of osteosarcoma cells. Furthermore, the results of RNA pull-down assays, luciferase reporter assays, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays revealed that MELTF-AS1 could regulate MMP14 expression through interaction with miR-485-5p. Our study suggested that MELTF-AS1 functioned as a pro-metastasis gene in osteosarcoma by upregulating MMP14 and that it could be a potential therapeutic and diagnostic target for osteosarcoma. Graphical abstract lncRNAs play crucial roles in cancer metastasis. Ding et al. demonstrate that MELTF-AS1 acts as a pro-metastasis gene in osteosarcoma. They revealed that MELTF-AS1 was mainly located in cytoplasm and could increase MMP14 expression through acting as a molecular sponge for miR-485-5p.

Dlc1 interaction with non-muscle myosin heavy chain II-A (Myh9) and Rac1 activation.

Project description:The Deleted in liver cancer 1 (Dlc1) gene codes for a Rho GTPase-activating protein that also acts as a tumour suppressor gene. Several studies have consistently found that overexpression leads to excessive cell elongation, cytoskeleton changes and subsequent cell death. However, none of these studies have been able to satisfactorily explain the Dlc1-induced cell morphological phenotypes and the function of the different Dlc1 isoforms. Therefore, we have studied the interacting proteins associated with the three major Dlc1 transcriptional isoforms using a mass spectrometric approach in Dlc1 overexpressing cells. We have found and validated novel interacting partners in constitutive Dlc1-expressing cells. Our study has shown that Dlc1 interacts with non-muscle myosin heavy chain II-A (Myh9), plectin and spectrin proteins in different multiprotein complexes. Overexpression of Dlc1 led to increased phosphorylation of Myh9 protein and activation of Rac1 GTPase. These data support a role for Dlc1 in induced cell elongation morphology and provide some molecular targets for further analysis of this phenotype.

lncRNA PRR34-AS1 promotes HCC development via modulating Wnt/β-catenin pathway by absorbing miR-296-5p and upregulating E2F2 and SOX12.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) belongs to the most frequent cancer with a high death rate worldwide. Thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed to influence the development of human cancers, including HCC. Nevertheless, the biological role of PRR34 antisense RNA 1 (PRR34-AS1) in HCC remains obscure. Here, we observed via quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (quantitative real-time RT-PCR) that PRR34-AS1 was highly expressed in HCC cells. Functional assays revealed that PRR34-AS1 promoted HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in vitro and facilitated tumor growth in vivo. In addition, western blot analysis and TOP Flash/FOP Flash reporter assays verified that PRR34-AS1 stimulated Wnt/β-catenin pathway in HCC cells. Furthermore, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), RNA pull-down, and luciferase reporter assays uncovered that PRR34-AS1 sequestered microRNA-296-5p (miR-296-5p) to positively modulate E2F transcription factor 2 (E2F2) and SRY-box transcription factor 12 (SOX12) in HCC cells. Importantly, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and luciferase reporter assays uncovered that E2F2 transcriptionally activated PRR34-AS1 in turn. Further, rescue experiments reflected that PRR34-AS1 affected HCC progression through targeting miR-296-5p/E2F2/SOX12/Wnt/β-catenin axis. Our findings found that PRR34-AS1 elicited oncogenic functions in HCC, which indicated that PRR34-AS1 might be a novel therapeutic target for HCC.

LncRNA FEZF1-AS1 Promotes Multi-Drug Resistance of Gastric Cancer Cells via Upregulating ATG5

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in human cancers including gastric cancer (GC). Dysregulation of lncRNAs is involved in a variety of pathological activities associated with gastric cancer progression and chemo-resistance. However, the role and molecular mechanisms of FEZF1-AS1 in chemoresistance of GC remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to determine the role of FEZF1-AS1 in chemoresistance of GC. The level of FEZF1-AS1 in GC tissues and GC cell lines was assessed by qRT-PCR. Our results showed that the expression of FEZF1-AS1 was higher in gastric cancer tissues than in adjacent normal tissues. Multivariate analysis identified that high level of FEZF1-AS1 is an independent predictor for poor overall survival. Increased FEZF1-AS1 expression promoted gastric cancer cell proliferation in vitro. Additionally, FEZF1-AS1 was upregulated in chemo-resistant GC tissues. The regulatory effect of FEZF1-AS1 on multi-drug resistance (MDR) in GC cells and the underlying mechanism was investigated. It was found that increased FEZF1-AS1 expression promoted chemo-resistance of GC cells. Molecular interactions were determined by RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and the results showed that FEZF1-AS1 regulated chemo-resistance of GC cells through modulating autophagy by directly targeting ATG5. The proliferation and autophagy of GC cells promoted by overexpression of LncFEZF1-AS1 was suppressed when ATG5 was knocked down. Moreover, knockdown of FEZF1-AS1 inhibited tumor growth and increased 5-FU sensitivity in GC cells in vivo. Taken together, this study revealed that the FEZF1-AS1/ATG5 axis regulates MDR of GC cells via modulating autophagy.

Effect of donor non-muscle myosin heavy chain (MYH9) gene polymorphisms on clinically relevant kidney allograft dysfunction.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Despite its established association with chronic kidney disease (CKD) the role of myosin-9 (MYH9) gene variation on transplanted kidney function remains unknown. This study aimed at evaluating the effect of donor MYH9 nephrogenic variants on renal allograft function within the first post transplantation year. METHODS:In the longitudinal kidney transplant study 207 deceased donors were genotyped for previously known risk MYH9 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The predictor was MYH9 high-risk variants status. The primary outcome was mean eGFR found in low vs. high risk MYH9 genotypes between third and twelfth post-transplant month, the secondary outcome was the risk of proteinuria. RESULTS:Distribution of genotypes remained in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The T allele of rs3752462 (dominant model, TT or TC vs. CC) was associated with higher filtration rate (P?=?0.05) in a multivariate analysis after adjusting for delayed graft function and donor sex. Two G alleles of rs136211 (recessive model, GG vs. GA or AA) resulted in doubling the risk of proteinuria (OR?=?2.22; 95% CI?=?1.18-4.37, P?=?0.017) after adjusting for donor and recipient sex. CONCLUSION:Deceased donor kidneys of European descent harboring MYH9 SNPs rs3752462 T allele show significantly superior estimated filtration rate while those of rs136211 GG genotype excessive risk of proteinuria. These findings, if replicated, may further inform and improve individualization of allocation and treatment policies.

The non-muscle Myosin heavy chain 9 gene (MYH9) is not associated with lupus nephritis in African Americans.

Project description:BackgroundAfrican Americans (AA) disproportionately develop lupus nephritis (LN) relative to European Americans and familial clustering supports causative genes. Since MYH9 underlies approximately 40% of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in AA, we tested for genetic association with LN.MethodsSeven MYH9 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the E1 risk haplotype were tested for association with LN in three cohorts of AA.ResultsA preliminary analysis revealed that the MYH9 E1 risk haplotype was associated with ESRD in 25 cases with presumed systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-associated ESRD, compared to 735 non-SLE controls (odds ratio 3.1; p = 0.010 recessive). Replication analyses were performed in 583 AA with SLE in the PROFILE cohort (318 with LN; 265 with SLE but without nephropathy) and 60 AA from the NIH (39 with LN; 21 with SLE but without nephropathy). Analysis of the NIH and larger PROFILE cohorts, as well as a combined analysis, did not support this association.ConclusionsThese results suggest that AA with ESRD and coincident SLE who were recruited from dialysis clinics more likely have kidney diseases in the MYH9-associated spectrum of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. PROFILE and NIH participants, recruited from rheumatology practices, demonstrate that MYH9 does not contribute substantially to the development of LN in AA.

LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 promotes tumorigenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of osteosarcoma through RhoC/ROCK1/p38MAPK/Twist1 signaling pathway.

Project description:BACKGROUND:An increasing number of studies have demonstrated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in cancer onset and development. LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 has been validated to be abnormally upregulated and play oncogenic roles in various malignant tumors. The biological role and mechanism of AFAP1-AS1 in OS (osteosarcoma) remains unclear. METHODS:Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is applied to examine AFAP1-AS1 expression in OS tissues and OS cell lines. The function of AFAP1-AS1 in OS cells is investigated via in-vitro and in-vivo assays. Western bolt and rescue experiments are applied to detect the expression changes of key molecules including epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers and identify the underlying molecular mechanism. RNA immunoprecipitation is performed to reveal the interaction between AFAP1-AS1 and RhoC. RESULTS:AFAP1-AS1 expression is upregulated in human OS tissues and cell lines. AFAP1-AS1 knockdown induces OS cell apoptosis and cell cycle G0/G1 arrest, suppresses OS cells growth, migration, invasion, vasculogenic mimicry formation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and affects actin filament integrity. AFAP1-AS1 knockdown suppresses OS tumor formation and growth in nude mice. AFAP1-AS1 knockdown elicits a signaling inhibition including decreased levels of RhoC, ROCK1, p38MAPK and Twist1. Moreover, AFAP1-AS1 interacts with RhoC. Overexpression of RhoC can partly reverse AFAP1-AS1 downregulation-induced cell EMT inhibition. CONCLUSIONS:AFAP1-AS1 is overexpressed in osteosarcoma and plays an oncogenic role in osteosarcoma through RhoC/ROCK1/p38MAPK/Twist1 signaling pathway, in which RhoC acts as the interaction target of AFAP1-AS1. Our findings indicated a novel molecular mechanism underlying the tumorigenesis and progression of osteosarcoma. AFAP1-AS1 could serve as a promising therapeutic target in OS treatment.
