Chimeric RNA TNNI2-ACTA1-V1 Regulates Cell Proliferation by Regulating the Expression of NCOA3.

ABSTRACT: Chimeric RNA is a crucial target for tumor diagnosis and drug therapy, also having its unique biological role in normal tissues. TNNI2-ACTA1-V1 (TA-V1), a chimeric RNA discovered by our laboratory in porcine muscle tissue, can inhibit the proliferation of Porcine Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cells (PSCs). The regulatory mechanism of TA-V1 in PSCs remains unclear, but we speculate that NCOA3, DDR2 and RDX may be the target genes of TA-V1. In this study, we explored the effects of NCOA3, DDR2 and RDX on cell viability and cell proliferation by CCK-8 assay, EdU staining and flow cytometry. Furthermore, the regulatory pathway of proliferation in PSCs mediated by TA-V1 through NCOA3 or CyclinD1 was elucidated by co-transfection and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP). The results revealed that overexpression of NCOA3 significantly increased cell viability and the expression level of CyclinD1, and also promotes cell proliferation by changing cells from the G1 phase to the S phase. In addition, inhibiting the expression of NCOA3 substantially reduced cell viability and inhibited cell proliferation. Overexpression of DDR2 and RDX had no significant effect on cell viability and proliferation. Co-transfection experiments showed that NCOA3 could rescue the proliferation inhibition of PSCs caused by TA-V1. Co-IP assay indicated that TA-V1 directly interacts with NCOA3. Our study explores the hypothesis that TA-V1 directly regulates NCOA3, indirectly regulating CyclinD1, thereby regulating PSCs proliferation. We provide new putative mechanisms of porcine skeletal muscle growth and lay the foundation for the study of chimeric RNA in normal tissues.

Identification of Chimeric RNAs in Pig Skeletal Muscle and Transcriptomic Analysis of Chimeric RNA TNNI2-ACTA1 V1.

Project description:Chimeric RNA was considered a special marker of cancer. However, recent studies have demonstrated that chimeric RNAs also exist in non-cancerous cells and tissues. Here, we analyzed and predicted jointly 49 chimeric RNAs by Star-Fusion and FusionMap. One chimeric RNA, we named TNNI2-ACTA1, and its eight transcript variants were identified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. The overexpression of TNNI2-ACTA1 V1 inhibited the proliferation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells through down-regulating the mRNA expression levels of cell cycle-related genes cyclinD1. However, as parental genes, there is no such effect in the TNNI2 and ACTA1. To explore the underlying mechanism for this phenomenon, we used RNA-seq to profile the transcriptomes of PSCs with overexpression. Compared with the negative control group, 1,592 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were upregulated and 1,077 DEGs downregulated in TNNI2 group; 1,226 DEGs were upregulated and 902 DEGs downregulated in ACTA1 group; and 13 DEGs were upregulated and 16 DEGs downregulated in TNNI2-ACTA1 V1 group, respectively. Compared with the parental gene groups, three specific genes were enriched in the TNNI2-ACTA1 V1 group (NCOA3, Radixin, and DDR2). These three genes may be the key to TNNI2-ACTA1 V1 regulating cell proliferation. Taken together, our study explores the role of chimeric RNAs in normal tissues. In addition, our study as the first research provides the foundation for the mechanism of chimeric RNAs regulating porcine skeletal muscle growth.

CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 functions as a housekeeping chimeric RNA and regulates cell proliferation through SERPINE2.

Project description:The conventional understanding that chimeric RNAs are unique to carcinoma and are the products of chromosomal rearrangement is being challenged. However, experimental evidence supporting the function of chimeric RNAs in normal physiology is scarce. We decided to focus on one particular chimeric RNA, CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1. We examined its expression in various tissues and cell types and compared it quantitatively among cancer and noncancer cells. We further investigated its role in a panel of noncancer cells and investigated the functional mechanism. We found that this fusion transcript is expressed in almost all tissues and a wide range of cell types, including fibroblasts, epithelial cells, stem cells, vascular endothelial cells, and hepatocytes. In addition, the CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 expression level in noncancerous cell lines was not evidently different from that in cancer cell lines. Furthermore, in at least three cell types, silencing CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 significantly reduced the cell proliferation rate by inducing G2/M arrest and apoptosis. Importantly, rescue experiments confirmed that cell cycle arrest was restored by exogenous expression of the chimera but not the wild-type parental gene. Further evidence is provided that CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 regulates cell proliferation through SERPINE2. Thus, CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 is an example of a new class of fusion RNAs, dubbed "housekeeping chimeric RNAs".

Role of CTCF in Regulating SLC45A3-ELK4 Chimeric RNA.

Project description:The chimeric RNA, SLC45A3-ELK4, was found to be a product of cis-splicing between the two adjacent genes (cis-SAGe). Despite the biological and clinical significance of SLC45A3-ELK4, its generating mechanism has not been elucidated. It was shown in one cell line that the binding of transcription factor CTCF to the insulators located at or near the gene boundaries, inversely correlates with the level of the chimera. To investigate the mechanism of such cis-SAGe events, we sequenced potential regions that may play a role in such transcriptional read-through. We could not detect mutations at the transcription termination site, insulator sites, splicing sites, or within CTCF itself in LNCaP cells, thus suggesting a "soft-wired" mechanism in regulating the cis-SAGe event. To investigate the role CTCF plays in regulating the chimeric RNA expression, we compared the levels of CTCF binding to the insulators in different cell lines, as well as clinical samples. Surprisingly, we did not find an inverse correlation between CTCF level, or its bindings to the insulators and SLC45A3-ELK4 expression among different samples. However, in three prostate cancer cell lines, different environmental factors can cause the expression levels of the chimeric RNA to change, and these changes do inversely correlate with CTCF level, and/or its bindings to the insulators. We thus conclude that CTCF and its bindings to the insulators are not the primary reasons for differential SLC45A3-ELK4 expression in different cell lines, or clinical cases. However, they are the likely mechanism for the same cells to respond to different environmental cues, in order to regulate the expression of SLC45A3-ELK4 chimeric RNA. This response to different environmental cues is not general to other cis-SAGe events, as we only found one out of 16 newly identified chimeric RNAs showing a pattern similar to SLC45A3-ELK4.

HIRA Is Required for Heart Development and Directly Regulates Tnni2 and Tnnt3.

Project description:Chromatin remodelling is essential for cardiac development. Interestingly, the role of histone chaperones has not been investigated in this regard. HIRA is a member of the HUCA (HIRA/UBN1/CABIN1/ASF1a) complex that deposits the variant histone H3.3 on chromatin independently of replication. Lack of HIRA has general effects on chromatin and gene expression dynamics in embryonic stem cells and mouse oocytes. Here we describe the conditional ablation of Hira in the cardiogenic mesoderm of mice. We observed surface oedema, ventricular and atrial septal defects and embryonic lethality. We identified dysregulation of a subset of cardiac genes, notably upregulation of troponins Tnni2 and Tnnt3, involved in cardiac contractility and decreased expression of Epha3, a gene necessary for the fusion of the muscular ventricular septum and the atrioventricular cushions. We found that HIRA binds GAGA rich DNA loci in the embryonic heart, and in particular a previously described enhancer of Tnni2/Tnnt3 (TTe) bound by the transcription factor NKX2.5. HIRA-dependent H3.3 enrichment was observed at the TTe in embryonic stem cells (ESC) differentiated toward cardiomyocytes in vitro. Thus, we show here that HIRA has locus-specific effects on gene expression and that histone chaperone activity is vital for normal heart development, impinging on pathways regulated by an established cardiac transcription factor.

circHIPK3 regulates cell proliferation and migration by sponging miR-124 and regulating AQP3 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:Noncoding RNAs plays an important role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we show that miR-124 was downregulated in HCC tissues and that the ectopic expression of miR-124 inhibited the proliferation and migration of HCC cells. We proposed that aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is a direct target of miR-124. AQP3 was upregulated in HCC tissues and inversely correlated with miR-124 expression. The overexpression of miR-124 decreased AQP3 expression. Indeed, AQP3 overexpression promoted cell proliferation and migration, whereas miR-124 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation and migration. Furthermore, we found that circular RNA HIPK3 (circHIPK3) acted as a miR-124 sponge and regulated the expression of the miR-124 target gene AQP3. circHIPK3 was upregulated in HCC tissues and positively correlated with AQP3 expression. Thus, silencing circHIPK3 inhibited cell proliferation and migration by downregulating AQP3 expression. Moreover, miR-124 inhibition rescued circHIPK3 knockdown induced reduction in cell proliferation and migration, as well as AQP3 expression. In vivo experiments also confirmed that circHIPK3 regulated xenograft tumor growth via the miR-124-AQP3 axis. These observations indicate a possible novel therapeutic strategy involving circular RNAs in HCC.

Circular RNA circ_001621 promotes osteosarcoma cells proliferation and migration by sponging miR-578 and regulating VEGF expression.

Project description:Strategies targeted vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-dependent osteosarcoma progression are limited although important progress has been made in illustrating the mechanisms. Here we identified circ_001621 as one of the significantly upregulated circular RNAs (circRNAs) by circRNAs microarrays. We found that patients with high circ_001621 expression had a shorter survival time. Moreover, we found several potential sponge micro RNAs (miRNA) of circ_001621 with Circular RNA Interactome database. Among the candidate sponge, we elucidated the association of circ_001621 and miR-578. In addition, we demonstrated that miR-578 targeted circ_001621 directly. Functionally, we set up the experimental system to investigate the effects of circ_001621/miR-578/VEGF interaction in vitro and in vivo. Results indicated circ_001621-promoted osteosarcoma proliferation and migration via attenuating the inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) by miR-578, respectively. Nude mice experiment was further performed to estimate the promotion of metastasis by circ_001621. The present study evaluated the mechanisms underlying circ_001621 enhanced osteosarcoma progression and provided novel therapeutic targets for advanced osteosarcoma.

Long non-coding RNA AK096174 promotes cell proliferation and invasion in gastric cancer by regulating WDR66 expression.

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the major causes of cancer deaths worldwide; however, the mechanism of carcinogenesis is complex and poorly understood. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been reported to be involved in the development of multiple cancers. Here, we identified a novel lncRNA, AK096174, which was up-regulated and associated with tumorigenesis, tumor size, metastasis, and poor prognosis in GC. Our data showed that AK096174 was highly expressed in the GC tissues and cell lines (SGC-7901, AGS, BGC-823, MGC-803), and patients with higher AK096174 expression had a poorer prognosis and shorter overall survival (OS). AK096174 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasiveness in SGC-7901 and BGC-823 cells, whereas AK096174 overexpression had the promoting effects. Furthermore, mechanistic investigation showed that AK096174 positively correlated with the expression of WD repeat-containing protein 66 (WDR66) gene at the translational level. Knockdown of WRD66 attenuated the positive impact of AK096174 in GC cells. The findings of the present study establish a function for AK096174 in GC progression and suggest it may serve as a potential target for GC therapy in the future.

Long noncoding RNA NEAT1 promotes cell proliferation and invasion by regulating hnRNP A2 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Project description:Growing evidence demonstrates that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the progression of various cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The role of nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1), an essential lncRNA for the formation of nuclear body paraspeckles, has not been fully explored in HCC. We aimed to determine the expression, roles and functional mechanisms of NEAT1 in the proliferation and invasion of HCC. Based on real-time polymerase chain reaction data, we suggest that NEAT1 is upregulated in HCC tissues compared with noncancerous liver tissues. The knockdown of NEAT1 altered global gene expression patterns and reduced HCC cell proliferation, invasion and migration. RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull-down assays confirmed that U2AF65 binds to NEAT1. Furthermore, the study indicated that NEAT1 regulated hnRNP A2 expression and that this regulation may be associated with the NEAT1-U2AF65 protein complex. Thus, the NEAT1-hnRNP A2 regulation mechanism promotes HCC pathogenesis and may provide a potential target for the prognosis and treatment of HCC.

Distal arthrogryposis with variable clinical expression caused by <i>TNNI2</i> mutation.

Project description:Distal arthrogryposis (DA) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder with multiple joint contractures. We describe a female DA patient with hand and foot deformities, and right-sided torticollis. Using exome sequencing, we identified a novel TNNI2 mutation (c.485>A, p.Arg162Lys) in the patient and her father. The father has no typical DA but hip dysplasia. This may explain the clinical features of DA2B in this family, but with variable clinical expression.

Long non-coding RNA PlncRNA-1 regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis, and autophagy in septic acute kidney injury by regulating BCL2.

Project description:This study aimed to elucidate the potential role of long non-coding RNA PlncRNA-1 in the septic acute kidney injury (AKI). The expression of PlncRNA-1 in the serum of patients with septic AKI patient was detected. We then established lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic AKI model in NRK-52E cells to investigate the effects of the overexpression of PlncRNA-1 on cell proliferation, apoptosis, and autophagy. In addition, the regulatory relationship between PlncRNA-1 and B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) was explored to further elucidate the regulatory mechanism of PlncRNA-1 in septic AKI. PlncRNA-1 is downregulated in the serum of patients with septic AKI and in LPS-induced septic AKI cells. The overexpression of PlncRNA-1 considerably increases proliferation and inhibits apoptosis and autophagy of LPS-induced septic AKI cells. In addition, PlncRNA-1 can promote BCL2 expression, and the overexpression of BCL2 enhances proliferation and inhibits apoptosis and autophagy of LPS-induced septic AKI cells. Our findings reveal that the overexpression of PlncRNA-1 may promote cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis and autophagy in septic AKI by regulating BCL2 expression. PlncRNA-1 may serve as a potential biomarker or target for the diagnosis and treatment of septic AKI.
