Long noncoding RNA Linc01612 represses hepatocellular carcinoma progression by regulating miR-494/ATF3/p53 axis and promoting ubiquitination of YBX1.

ABSTRACT: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Linc01612 is a novel lncRNA that function remains unknown in the progression of cancers, including HCC. In this study, we discovered that Linc01612 is significantly down-regulated in HCC tissues than in non-tumor tissues and correlated with poor prognosis. Linc01612 mainly localizes in the cytoplasm and functions as a tumor suppressor by repressing the growth and metastasis of hepatoma cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, in p53-expressing hepatoma cells, Linc01612 acts as a competitive endogenous RNA and promotes the expression of activation transcription factor 3 (ATF3) by sponging microRNA-494 (miR-494), which in turn inhibits MDM2-mediated ubiquitination of p53 and activates the p53 pathway. Furthermore, in p53-null hepatoma cells, Linc01612 exerts its biological functions by physically interacting with Y-box binding protein 1 protein (YBX1) and promoting the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of YBX1. Interestingly, the Linc01612-YBX1 signaling pathway is also present in p53-expressing hepatoma cells. In conclusion, our study indicated that Linc01612 is a functional lncRNA in HCC and Linc01612 may serve as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for HCC.

Project description:BackgroundPancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy worldwide with rapid development and an exceedingly poor prognosis. lncRNAs play crucial roles in regulating the biological behaviors of tumor cells. In this study, we discovered that LINC00578 acted as a regulator of ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer.MethodsA series of loss- and gain-of-function experiments in vitro and in vivo were performed to explore the oncogenic role of LINC00578 in pancreatic cancer development and progression. Label-free proteomic analysis was performed to select LINC00578-related differentially expressed proteins. Pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation assays were carried out to determine and validate the binding protein of LINC00578. Coimmunoprecipitation assays were used to investigate the association of LINC00578 with SLC7A11 in ubiquitination and to confirm the interaction between ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 K (UBE2K) and SLC7A11. An immunohistochemical assay was used to confirm the correlation between LINC00578 and SLC7A11 in the clinic.ResultsLINC00578 positively regulated cell proliferation and invasion in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo in pancreatic cancer. LINC00578 can obviously inhibit ferroptosis events, including cell proliferation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) depolarization. In addition, the LINC00578-induced inhibitory effect on ferroptosis events was rescued by SLC7A11 knockdown. Mechanistically, LINC00578 directly binds UBE2K to decrease the ubiquitination of SLC7A11, thus accelerating SLC7A11 expression. In the clinic, LINC00578 is closely associated with clinicopathologic factors and poor prognosis and correlated with SLC7A11 expression in pancreatic cancer.ConclusionsThis study elucidated that LINC00578 acts as an oncogene to promote pancreatic cancer cell progression and suppress ferroptosis by directly combining with UBE2K to inhibit the ubiquitination of SLC7A11, which provides a promising option for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.
