FAM83A antisense RNA 1 (FAM83A-AS1) silencing impairs cell proliferation and induces autophagy via MET-AMPKɑ signaling in lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Studies demonstrate that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in cancer progression. However, the expression pattern and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA FAM83A-AS1 in lung cancer remain largely unclear. Here, we analyzed FAM83A-AS1 expression in lung cancer tissues from three RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) datasets and validated these results using quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in an independent set of lung adenocarcinoma. Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and autophagy were analyzed after knockdown FAM83A-AS1 with siRNAs. The underlying molecular mechanisms of FAM83A-AS1 were performed by Western blot, qRT-PCR, and RNA-seq analysis. We found that FAM83A-AS1 was up-regulated in lung cancer and elevated expression was associated with poor patient survival. These results were confirmed using RT-PCR in an independent set of lung cancer. Functional study indicated that FAM83A-AS1 knockdown reduced cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and colony formation in cancer cells. FAM83A-AS1 silencing induced autophagy and cell cycle arrest at G2. Mechanistically, serval oncogenic proteins such as EGFR, MET, PI3K, and K-RAS were decreased upon FAM83A-AS1 silencing, while phosphor AMPKα and ULK1 were increased. Based on the above results, we believe that FAM83A-AS1 may have potential as a diagnosis/prognosis marker and its oncogenic role and autophagy regulation may be through MET-AMPKα signaling, which could lead to potential targeting for lung cancer therapy.

Silencing of <i>LOC389641</i> impairs cell proliferation and induces autophagy via EGFR/MET signaling in lung adenocarcinoma.

Project description:High-throughput RNA-sequencing studies of tumor samples have identified a large number of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) which are associated with various types of cancer. LncRNAs play key roles in regulating chromatin dynamics, gene expression, growth, differentiation and development. However, the role of LOC389641 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumorigenesis is not clear. Here, we investigated the expression pattern, roles and mechanism of LOC389641 in lung cancer. LOC389641 expressions in tumor tissues and cell lines were measured by qRT-PCR. Functional studies including colony formation, cell proliferation and invasion were performed in lung cancer cell lines and Western blot was used to exam the protein changes upon siRNA treatment. We found that LOC389641 was highly expressed in lung adenocarcinomas and was associated with poor patient survival. Silencing of LOC389641 reduced colony formation, cell proliferation and invasion, as well as induced autophagy and apoptosis of lung adenocarcinoma cell lines in vitro. Mechanistically, downregulation of LOC389641 was found to decrease EGFR, MET and STAT3 proteins expression in lung cancer cells. LOC389641 is highly expressed and plays an oncogenic role in this type of NSCLC. Because of its specificity, LOC389641 may be a potential biomarker for prognosis and a possible target for lung adenocarcinoma.

Long noncoding antisense RNA FAM83A-AS1 promotes lung cancer cell progression by increasing FAM83A.

Project description:The abnormal expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) is closely associated with human cancers. As one special group of lncRNAs, natural antisense transcripts (NATs) can be transcribed from both DNA strands at the same locus but in the opposite direction from the gene transcript. Their expression levels are altered in many cancers, but their roles are poorly understood. We strove to find NATs involved in human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to reveal their mechanism of action in cancer. We analysed the NATs in NSCLC from the TCGA database by circlncRNAnet. One NAT, family with sequence similarity 83 member A antisense RNA 1 (FAM83A-AS1), was found to be markedly upregulated and positively correlated with its cognate sense counterpart, FAM83A, in NSCLC. Moreover, overexpression of FAM83A-AS1 increased FAM38A protein levels and induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation downstream of FAM83A in cells. Finally, overexpression of FAM83A-AS1 promoted LUAD cell proliferation and invasion. In summary, lncRNA FAM83A-AS1 promotes LUAD by increasing FAM83A expression.

LncRNA FAM83A-AS1 facilitates tumor proliferation and the migration via the HIF-1α/ glycolysis axis in lung adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), the major subtype of lung cancer, is among the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Energy-related metabolic reprogramming metabolism is a hallmark of cancer shared by numerous cancer types, including LUAD. Nevertheless, the functional pathways and molecular mechanism by which FAM83A-AS1 acts in metabolic reprogramming in lung adenocarcinoma have not been fully elucidated. Methods: We used transwell, wound-healing scratch assay, and metabolic assays to explore the effect of FAM83A-AS1 in LUAD cell lines. Western blotting, Co-IP assays, and ubiquitination assays were used to detect the effects of FAM83A-AS1 on HIF-1α expression, degradation, and its binding to VHL. Moreover, an in vivo subcutaneous tumor formation assay was used to detect the effect of FAM83A-AS1 on LUAD. Results: Herein, we identified FAM83A-AS1 as a metabolism-related lncRNA, which was highly correlated with glycolysis, hypoxia, and OXPHOS pathways in LUAD patients using bioinformatics analysis. In addition, we uncovered that FAM83A-AS1 could promote the migration and invasion of LUAD cells, as well as influence the stemness of LUAD cells in vivo and vitro. Moreover, FAM83A-AS1 was shown to promote glycolysis in LUAD cell lines in vitro and in vivo, and was found to influence the expression of genes related to glucose metabolism. Besides, we revealed that FAM83A-AS1 could affect glycolysis by regulating HIF-1α degradation. Finally, we found that FAM83A-AS1 knockdown could inhibit tumor growth and suppress the expression of HIF-1α and glycolysis-related genes in vivo. Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that FAM83A-AS1 contributes to LUAD proliferation and stemness via the HIF-1α/glycolysis axis, making it a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in LUAD patients.

FAM83A-AS1 promotes lung adenocarcinoma cell migration and invasion by targeting miR-150-5p and modifying MMP14.

Project description:Accumulating evidence has indicated that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in the processes of cancer occurrence, progression, and treatment. FAM83A-AS1 is a novel onco-lncRNA involved in various cancers. Nevertheless, the biological function and underlying mechanism of FAM83A-AS1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain largely unclear. In this study, we found FAM83A-AS1 to be upregulated in LUAD tissues and closely associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage. In addition, high FAM83A-AS1 expression correlated positively with a poor prognosis. Functional investigation revealed that FAM83A-AS1 promotes LUAD cell proliferation, migration, invasion and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, FAM83A-AS1 functions as an endogenous sponge of miR-150-5p by directly targeting it, removing inhibition of MMP14, a target of miR-150-5p. Furthermore, rescue assays demonstrated that FAM83A-AS1 enhances cell migration, invasion and EMT by modulating the miR-150-5p/MMP14 pathway. Collectively, we conclude that the novel FAM83A-AS1/miR-150-5p/MMP14 axis regulates LUAD progression, suggesting an innovative therapeutic strategy for this cancer.

Overexpression of FAM83H-AS1 indicates poor patient survival and knockdown impairs cell proliferation and invasion via MET/EGFR signaling in lung cancer.

Project description:Whole transcriptome analyses of next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data from human cancer samples reveled thousands of uncharacterized non-coding RNAs including long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). Recent studies indicated that lncRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators in cancer processes and potentially useful as biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. To delineate dysregulated lncRNAs in lung cancer, we analyzed RNA-Seq data from 461 lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) and 156 normal lung tissues. FAM83H-AS1, one of the top dysregulated lncRNAs, was found to be overexpressed in tumors relative to normal lung and significantly associated with worse patient survival in LUAD. We verified this diagnostic/prognostic potential in an independent cohort of LUAD by qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were decreased after FAM83H-AS1 knockdown using siRNAs in lung cancer cells. Flow cytometry analysis indicated the cell cycle was arrested at the G2 phase after FAM83H-AS1 knockdown. Mechanistically, we found that MET/EGFR signaling was regulated by FAM83H-AS1. Our study indicated that FAM83H-AS1 plays an important role in lung tumor progression and may be potentially used as diagnostic/prognostic marker. Further characterization of this lncRNA may provide a novel therapeutic target impacting MET/EGFR signaling.

CSE1L silencing impairs tumor progression via MET/STAT3/PD-L1 signaling in lung cancer.

Project description:CSE1L is involved in the cancer progression of several types of cancer. Its expression status, potential oncogenic role and underlying mechanism in lung cancer, however, are unclear. Here, we investigated CSE1L expression in primary lung adenocarcinoma based on multiple datasets and then investigated its oncologic role in lung cancer. We also examined the potential molecular mechanisms of CSE1L in cancer progression. CSE1L levels were increased in cancer as compared to normal lung tissues. CSE1L expression was higher in poorly-differentiated late stage and lymph node positive metastatic tumors. Higher CSE1L level was correlated with worse patient outcome. Knockdown of CSE1L using siRNAs impaired cell proliferation, invasion, migration and induced cell apoptosis. Mechanistically, MET, STAT3 and PD-L1 proteins were decreased upon CSE1L silencing. These results suggest that CSE1L may affect tumor progression through MET/STAT3/PD-L1 signaling. CSE1L may have potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target for lung cancer.

Foretinib (GSK1363089), an orally available multikinase inhibitor of c-Met and VEGFR-2, blocks proliferation, induces anoikis, and impairs ovarian cancer metastasis.

Project description:PurposeCurrently, there are no approved targeted therapies for the treatment of ovarian cancer, despite the fact that it is the most lethal gynecological malignancy. One proposed target is c-Met, which has been shown to be an important prognostic indicator in a number of malignancies, including ovarian cancer. The objective of this study was to determine whether an orally available multikinase inhibitor of c-Met and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (foretinib, GSK1363089) blocks ovarian cancer growth.Experimental designThe effect of foretinib was tested in a genetic mouse model of endometrioid ovarian cancer, several ovarian cancer cell lines, and an organotypic 3D model of the human omentum.ResultsIn the genetic mouse model, treatment with foretinib prevented the progression of primary tumors to invasive adenocarcinoma. Invasion through the basement membrane was completely blocked in treated mice, whereas in control mice, invasive tumors entirely replaced the normal ovary. In 2 xenograft mouse models using human ovarian cancer cell lines, the inhibitor reduced overall tumor burden (86% inhibition, P < 0.0001) and metastasis (67% inhibition, P < 0.0001). The mechanism of inhibition by foretinib involved (a) inhibition of c-Met activation and downstream signaling, (b) reduction of ovarian cancer cell adhesion, (c) a block in migration and invasion, (d) reduced proliferation mediated by a G(2)-M cell-cycle arrest, and (e) induction of anoikis.ConclusionsThis study shows that foretinib blocks tumorigenesis and reduces invasive tumor growth in different models of ovarian cancer by affecting several critical tumor functions. We believe that it provides a rationale for the further clinical development of foretinib for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

lncRNA ZNF649-AS1 Induces Trastuzumab Resistance by Promoting ATG5 Expression and Autophagy.

Project description:The regulatory mechanism of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in trastuzumab resistance is not well established to date. In this research, we identified differentially expressed lncRNA and investigated its regulatory role in trastuzumab resistance of breast cancer. HiSeq sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR were performed to identify the dysregulated lncRNAs. Mass spectrometry, RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (RNA-FISH), and immunoprecipitation assays were performed to identify the direct interactions between ZNF649-AS1 and other associated targets, such as polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1) and autophagy related 5 (ATG5). Our results showed that ZNF649-AS1 was more highly expressed in trastuzumab-resistant cells compared to sensitive cells. Increased expression of ZNF649-AS1 was associated with a poorer response and shorter survival time of breast cancer patients. ZNF649-AS1 was upregulated by H3K27ac modification at the presence of trastuzumab treatment, and knockdown of ZNF649-AS1 reversed trastuzumab resistance via modulating ATG5 expression and autophagy. Mechanically, ZNF649-AS1 was associated with PTBP1 protein, which further promoted the transcription activity of the ATG5 gene. In conclusion, we demonstrated that H3K27ac modification-induced upregulation of ZNF649-AS1 could cause autophagy and trastuzumab resistance through associating with PTBP1 and promoting ATG5 transcription.

Long noncoding RNA MAPKAPK5-AS1 promotes colorectal cancer proliferation by partly silencing p21 expression.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy in the world, and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plays a critical role in carcinogenesis. Here, we report a novel lncRNA, MAPKAPK5-AS1, that acts as a critical oncogene in CRC. In addition, we attempted to explore the functions of MAPKAPK5-AS1 on tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of MAPKAPK5-AS1 in CRC tissues and cells. Expression of MAPKAPK5-AS1 was significantly upregulated in 50 CRC tissues, and increased expression of MAPKAPK5-AS1 was found to be associated with greater tumor size and advanced pathological stage in CRC patients. Knockdown of MAPKAPK5-AS1 significantly inhibited proliferation and caused apoptosis in CRC cells. We also found that p21 is a target of MAPKAPK5-AS1. In addition, we are the first to report that MAPKAPK5-AS1 plays a carcinogenic role in CRC. MAPKAPK5-AS1 is a novel prognostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic candidate for CRC cancer.

Long Noncoding RNA HNF1A-AS1 Regulates Proliferation and Migration in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Cells

Project description:Objectives: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play important roles in the development and progression of cancer. However, functional lncRNAs and their downstream mechanisms are largely unknown in the molecular pathogenesis of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and its progression. Design: lncRNAs that are abnormally upregulated in EACs were identified by RNA-seq analysis, followed by quantitative RT-PCR (qRTPCR) validation using tissues from 31 EAC patients. Cell biological assays in combination with siRNA-mediated knockdown were performed in order to probe the functional relevance of these lncRNAs. Results: We discovered that a lncRNA, HNF1A-AS1, is markedly upregulated in human primary EACs relative to their corresponding normal esophageal tissues (mean fold change 7.2, p<0.01). We further discovered that HNF1A-AS1 knockdown significantly inhibited cell proliferation and anchorage independent growth, suppressed S-phase entry, and inhibited cell migration and invasion in multiple in vitro EAC models (p<0.05). A gene ontological analysis revealed that HNF1A-AS1 knockdown preferentially affected genes that are linked to assembly of chromatin and the nucleosome, a mechanism essential to cell cycle progression. The well-known cancer-related lncRNA, H19, was the gene most markedly inhibited by HNF1A-AS1 knockdown. Consistent to this finding, there was a significant positive correlation between HNF1A-AS1 and H19 expression in primary EACs (p<0.01). In order to identify novel oncogenic lncRNAs in esophageal adenocarcinogenesis, we carried out RNA-seq of a matched NE-BE-EAC tissue pair
