ABSTRACT: Objective
The objective of this study was to investigate whether long noncoding RNA Metastasis-Associated Lung Adenocarcinoma Transcript 1 (MALAT1) contributes to laryngocarcinoma development via regulating the Yes-associated protein 1- (YAP1-) mediated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the underlying mechanism.Methods
The effects of MALAT1 suppression and BET inhibitor JQ1 on the malignant phenotypes and cancer stem cell- (CSC-) like properties of laryngocarcinoma cells as well as the expression of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4), YAP1, and EMT markers were investigated. Moreover, the relationships between MALAT1 and miR-708-5p as well as between miR-708-5p and BRD4 were explored. Furthermore, whether MALAT1 regulated the malignant phenotypes of laryngocarcinoma cells via sponging miR-708-5p to target BRD4 was revealed by both in vitro and in vivo experiments.Results
MALAT1 suppression inhibited the malignant phenotypes of laryngocarcinoma cells, such as decreased proliferation, promoted apoptosis, suppressed migration, and inhibited the CSC properties. Suppression of MALAT1 increased miR-708-5p expression and decreased the expression of BRD4 and YAP1 and inhibited EMT. Moreover, there were target relationships between MALAT1 and miR-708-5p as well as between miR-708-5p and BRD4. miR-708-5p overexpression and MALAT1 suppression had synergistic inhibitory effects on the malignant phenotypes of laryngocarcinoma cells and the expression of BRD4, YAP1, and EMT. Furthermore, in vivo experiments confirmed that MALAT1/miR-708-5p regulated tumorigenicity by regulating BRD4 and YAP1-mediated EMT.Conclusions
Our results indicate that suppression of MALAT1 may inhibit laryngocarcinoma development by sponging miR-708-5p/BRD4 to regulate YAP1-mediated EMT. Targeting MALAT1/miR-708-5p/BRD4 axis may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for laryngocarcinoma.
