DNMT1-mediated lncRNA IFFD controls the follicular development via targeting GLI1 by sponging miR-370.

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) exhibit an indispensable role in follicular development. However, the specific mechanisms regarding lncRNAs mediated by DNA methylation in follicular development remain unclearly. In this study, we found that inhibiting the expression of DNMT1 promoted granulosa cells (GCs) apoptosis to inhibit follicular development. A novel follicular development-associated lncRNA named inhibitory factor of follicular development (IFFD) was mediated by DNMT1 and showed to arrest follicular development by inhibiting GCs proliferation and estrogen (E2) secretion but promoting GCs apoptosis. Mechanistically, the deactivated Cas9-TET1 demonstrated that the hypomethylation in -1261/-1254 region of IFFD promoted the transcription of IFFD by recruiting SP1. IFFD induced the expression of GLI family zinc finger 1 through competitive binding miR-370, thereby up-regulating the expression of CASP3 to promote GCs apoptosis, as well as downregulating the expressions of PCNA and CYP19A1 to inhibit GCs proliferation and E2 secretion. Collectively, DNMT1-mediated IFFD might be a novel target for the regulation of follicular development.

Project description:BackgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is currently the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play key roles in tumor occurrence and development as crucial cancer regulators. The present study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism and regulatory network of Linc00511 in LUAD and to identify new potential therapeutic targets for LUAD.MethodsReal-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was performed to determine the relative Linc00511 levels in LUAD tissues and cells. The proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion abilities of LUAD cells were assessed by a Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, a colony formation assay, flow cytometry, and a Transwell assay. Changes in hsa_miR-126-5p, hsa_miR-218-5p, and COL1A1 expression were analyzed using western blotting and RT-qPCR. Targeted binding between miR-126-5p/miR-218-5p and Linc00511 or COL1A1 was verified with a luciferase reporter system and confirmed by an RNA pulldown assay. The participation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was confirmed via western blotting. Xenograft animal experiments were performed to detect the impact of Linc00511 on LUAD tumor growth in vivo.ResultsIn the present work, we observed that Linc00511 was upregulated in LUAD tissues and cells. Loss/gain-of-function experiments indicated that knockdown of Linc00511 significantly inhibited LUAD cell proliferation, migration and invasion and promoted LUAD cell apoptosis, whereas overexpression of Linc00511 showed the opposite effects. In addition, we determined that Linc00511 promoted COL1A1-mediated cell proliferation and cell motility by sponging miR-126-5p and miR-218-5p. Moreover, Linc00511 activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway through upregulation of COL1A1. Finally, silencing of Linc00511 inhibited LUAD tumor growth in vivo.ConclusionsLinc00511 acts as a competing endogenous RNA to regulate COL1A1 by targeting miR-126-5p and miR-218-5p, thereby promoting the proliferation and invasion of LUAD cells.

Project description:GBM (Glioblastoma multiform) is the most malignant tumor type of the central nervous system and has poor diagnostic and clinical outcomes. LncRNAs (Long non-coding RNAs) have been reported to participate in multiple biological and pathological processes, but their underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we aimed to explore the role of the lncRNA HAS2-AS1 (HAS2 antisense RNA 1) in GBM. GSE103227 was analyzed, and qRT-PCR was performed to measure the expression of HAS2-AS1 in GBM. FISH (Fluorescence in situ hybridization) was performed to verify the localization of HAS2-AS1. The interaction between HAS2-AS1 and miR-137 (microRNA-137) was predicted by LncBook and miRcode followed by dual-luciferase reporter assays, and the relationships among HAS2-AS1, miR-137 and LSD1 (lysine-specific demethylase 1) were assessed by WB (western blot) and qRT-PCR. Colony formation and CCK-8 (cell counting kit-8) assays were performed as functional tests. In vivo, nude mice were used to confirm the function of HAS2-AS1. HAS2-AS1 expression was upregulated in GBM cell lines, and HAS2-AS1 was localized mainly in the cytoplasm. In vitro, high HAS2-AS1 expression promoted proliferation, and knockdown of HAS2-AS1 significantly inhibited proliferation. Furthermore, HAS2-AS1 functioned as a ceRNA (competing endogenous RNA) of miR-137, leading to the disinhibition of its downstream target LSD1. The miR-137 level was downregulated by HAS2-AS1 overexpression and upregulated by HAS2-AS1 knockdown. In a subsequent study, LSD1 expression was negatively regulated by miR-137, while miR-137 reversed the LSD1 expression levels caused by HAS2-AS1. These results were further supported by the nude mouse tumorigenesis experiment; compared with xenografts with high HAS2-AS1 expression, the group with low levels of HAS2-AS1 exhibited suppressed proliferation and better survival. We conclude that lncRNA HAS2-AS1 promotes proliferation by functioning as a miR-137 decoy to increase LSD1 levels and thus might be a possible biomarker for GBM.
