MiR-302a-5p suppresses cell proliferation and invasion in non-small cell lung carcinoma by targeting ITGA6.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNA-302a-5p (miR-302a-5p) has been implicated in several cancers; however, its role in human non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) remains unknown. In this study, we showed that miR-302a-5p is downregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Cell Counting Kit-8 and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine assays showed that overexpression of a miR-302a-5p mimic suppressed NSCLC cell proliferation, which was confirmed by the results of a cell cycle assay. Overexpression of miR-302a-5p also reduced the migration and invasion of NSCLC cells. Additionally, miR-302a-5p overexpression significantly inhibited NSCLC growth and metastasis in a mouse xenograft model. With regard to the underlying mechanism, integrin α6 (ITGA6) mRNA was shown to be a novel target of miR-302a-5p, and overexpression of ITGA6 attenuated the inhibitory effects of miR-302a-5p on the proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells. In clinical NSCLC samples, miR-302a-5p expression was negatively correlated with ITGA6 expression, which was high in the samples. Collectively, these results indicate that miR-302a-5p acts as a tumor suppressor in NSCLC by directly targeting ITGA6 mRNA and may be useful as a theranostic biomarker of NSCLC.

Project description:BackgroundTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the malignancy with the worst outcome among all breast cancer subtypes. We reported that ETV1 is a significant oncogene in TNBC tumourigenesis. Consequently, investigating the critical regulatory microRNAs (miRNAs) of ETV1 may be beneficial for TNBC targeted therapy.MethodsWe performed in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) to detect the location of miR-17-5p and ETV1 in TNBC patient samples, respectively. miR-17-5p expression in TNBC tissues and cell lines was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). ETV1 expression was evaluated by qRT-PCR, western blotting and IHC. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation, Transwell and wound closure assays were utilized to determine the TNBC cell proliferation and migration capabilities. In vivo tumour metastatic assays were performed in a zebra fish model.ResultsThe abundance of miR-17-5p was significantly decreased in TNBC cell lines and clinical TNBC tissues. The miR-17-5p expression levels were closely correlated with tumour size (P < 0.05) and TNM stage (P < 0.05). By contrast, the expression of ETV1 was significantly up-regulated in TNBC cell lines and tissues. There is an inverse correlation between the expression status of miR-17-5p and ETV1 (r = -0.28, P = 3.88 × 10-3). Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that ETV1 was a direct target of miR-17-5p. Forced expression of miR-17-5p in MDA-MB-231 or BT549 cells significantly decreased ETV1 expression and suppressed cell proliferation, migration in vitro and tumour metastasis in vivo. However, rescuing the expression of ETV1 in the presence of miR-17-5p significantly recovered the cell phenotype. High miR-17-5p expression was associated with a significantly favourable prognosis, in either the ETV1-positive or ETV1-negative groups (log-rank test, P < 0.001; P < 0.001). Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that miR-17-5p and ETV1 were independent risk factors in the prognosis of TNBC patient.ConclusionsOur data indicate that miR-17-5p acts as a tumour suppressor in TNBC by targeting ETV1, and a low-abundance of miR-17-5p may be involved in the pathogenesis of TNBC. These findings indicate that miR-17-5p may be a therapeutic target for TNBC.
