Piwi-interacting RNA sequencing of 2 paired clear cell renal cell carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues

ABSTRACT: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is one of the most common diagnostic tumor, with nearly one third patients diagnosed as metastatic ccRCC. Although increasing number of studies have revealed that piwi-interacting RNAs were aberrantly expressed in diverse type of cancers, few of them explored the detailed molecular mechanism of piRNAs in carcinogenesis, particular in ccRCC. In this study, differentially expressed piRNAs associated with ccRCC was selected by using piRNA-sequencing combined with analyzing TCGA data, from which piR-57125 was identified. PiR-57125 was found remarkably downregulated in ccRCC samples. Functionally, knockdown of piR-57125 promoted migration and invasion of ccRCC, while overexpression of piR-57125 suppressed ccRCC metastasis. In vivo lung metastasis model also confirmed the same results. CCL3 was identified as the direct target of piR-57125 which could reverse the inhibition effect of piR-57125 in ccRCC metastasis. Further studies revealed that piR-57125 modulated ccRCC metastasis through AKT/ERK pathway. Those data indicate that piR-57125 restrains ccRCC metastasis through directly targeting CCL3 and inhibiting AKT/ERK pathway, and could be a potential therapeutic target for ccRCC.

PIWI-interacting RNAs are dysregulated in renal cell carcinoma and associated with tumor metastasis and cancer specific survival

Project description:Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are a distinct group of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) that silence transposable genetic elements to protect genome integrity. Due to their limited expression in gonads and sequence diversity, piRNAs remain the most mysterious class of small RNAs. Studies have shown piRNAs are present in somatic cells and dysregulated in gastric, breast and liver cancers. By deep sequencing 24 frozen benign kidney and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) specimens and using the publically available piRNA database, we found 26,991 piRNAs present in human kidney tissue. Among 920 piRNAs that at least had two copies in one specimen, 19 were differentially expressed in benign kidney and ccRCC tissues, and 46 were associated with metastasis. Among the metastasis-related piRNAs, we found 3 piRNAs, piR- 32051, piR-39894 and piR-43607, to be derived from the same piRNA cluster at chromosome 17. We confirmed the 3 selected piRNAs not to be miRNAs or miRNA-like sncRNAs. We further validated the aberrant expression of the 3 piRNAs in a 68-case formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) ccRCC tissue cohort and showed the upregulation of the 3 piRNAs to be highly associated with ccRCC metastasis, late clinical stage and cancer-specific survival.

PIWI-interacting RNA-YBX1 inhibits proliferation and metastasis by the MAPK signaling pathway via YBX1 in triple-negative breast cancer

Project description:Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women worldwide, with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) having the worst prognosis. Although there are numerous studies on TNBC, there is no effective treatment for it, and it is still a major problem today. Studies on PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are increasing and investigating the mechanism of piRNAs in the proliferation and metastasis of TNBC may lead to new potential treatment targets. Here, we identified a novel piRNA, piR-YBX1, which was downregulated in TNBC compared to matched normal breast tissue. Overexpression of piR-YBX1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion ability of TNBC cells both in vivo and in vitro. Mechanistically, piR-YBX1 could bind directly to mRNA of YBX1 and overexpression of piR-YBX1 downregulated YBX1 in both mRNA and protein levels, while the function of piR-YBX1 could be partly rescued by overexpression of YBX1. In addition, YBX1 could bind to RAF1 which is the key molecule in the MAPK signaling pathway, and overexpression of piR-YBX1 inhibited the p-MEK and p-ERK1/2 which can be reverted by YBX1. In conclusion, our findings discovered that the piR-YBX1/YBX1/MAPK axis suppresses the proliferation and metastasis of TNBC and therefore piR-YBX1 has the potential to be an effective therapeutic agent for breast cancer.

PIWI-interacting RNAs in gliomagenesis: Evidence from post-GWAS and functional analyses

Project description:Background: PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), the largest class of noncoding RNAs in mammals, cooperate with PIWI proteins to safeguard the genome from insertional mutations during germline development. Although a growing number studies have linked the PIWI-piRNA pathway to carcinogenesis, the role of piRNAs in glioma has not been explored. Methods: Utilizing directly measured and imputed genotypes from the GliomaScan genome-wide association study (1,840 cases and 2,401 controls), genetic variants in 1,428 piRNAs were analyzed for association with glioma risk. In vitro assays were performed to interrogate the functional impact of a top identified piRNA and its variant allele. Results: Variants in five piRNAs were considered to be associations of interest and four of these showed narrow clusters of enhanced association signals surrounding the index variant. Functional analyses of one of these piRNAs, piR-598, revealed that transfection of the wild-type piRNA impacted expression of genes involved in cell death/survival, and reduced glioma cell viability and colony formation. However, upon delivery of piR-598 containing the variant allele at rs147061479 (OR=1.80; 95% CI: 1.33-2.46; P=1.69 x 10-4), cell proliferation was sharply increased. Conclusions: These findings suggest that variant rs147061479 in piR-598 increases glioma risk by abolishing the tumor-suppressive function of piR-598, instead conferring growth-promoting properties that may result from a shift in piRNA targets. Impact: This transdisciplinary study demonstrates a role of piRNAs in gliomagenesis by evidence from both post-GWAS and in vitro functional analyses, and supports expanded investigation into the link between the PIWI-piRNA pathway and cancer.

PIWI-interacting RNAs function as novel tumor suppressors in glioblastoma multiforme

Project description:PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that partner with PIWI proteins to protect germline tissues from destabilizing transposon activity. While the aberrant expression of PIWI proteins has been linked with poor outcomes for many cancers, less is known about the expression or function of piRNAs in cancer. We performed array-based piRNA expression profiling in seven pairs of normal and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) tissue specimens and identified expression of ~350 piRNAs in both tissues and a subset with dysregulated expression in GBM. Several down-regulated piRNAs inhibited proliferation when transfected into glioma cell lines while those equivalently expressed in tumor and normal tissues did not, consistent with piRNA-specific tumor-suppressive roles. Upregulation of the most underexpressed piRNA, piR-8041, was found to induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis and to alter transcriptional levels of several genes involved in stress and cell survival pathways. Additionally, the volume of intracranial mouse xenograft tumors was significantly reduced for approximately ten days after pre-implantation transfection with piR-8041. Taken together, our study reveals a previously unidentified functional role for piRNAs as tumor suppressors in gliomagenesis, and suggests that restoration of piRNA levels may be a potential strategy for GBM therapy.

Effect of piR-1254 on the differential expression in Neuroblastomacell lines

Project description:Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs), including microRNAs and piRNAs, play crucial roles in regulating gene expression in cancer, influencing key processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis. This also includes piR-1254, a 32 nucleotides long non-coding RNA. Here it is shown that piR-1254 has a broad influence on the expression of more than 2000 different genes. The expression of half of the genes is reduced and that of the other half is increased.

A piRNA like small RNA interacts with and modulates p-ERM proteins in human somatic cells

Project description:PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are thought to silence transposon and gene expression during development. However, the roles of piRNAs in somatic tissues are largely unknown. Here we report the identification of 555 piRNAs in human lung bronchial epithelial (HBE) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines, including 295 that don’t exist in databases termed as piRNA-Like sncRNAs or piRNA-Ls. Distinctive piRNA/piRNA-L expression patterns are observed between HBE and NSCLC cells. piRNA-L-163 (piR-L-163), the top down-regulated piRNA-L in NSCLC cells, binds directly to phosphorylated ERM proteins (p-ERM), which is dependent on the central part of UUNNUUUNNUU motif in piR-L-163 and the RRRKPDT element in ERM, and. The piR-L-163/p-ERM interaction is critical for p-ERM’s binding capability to filamentous actin (F-actin) and ERM-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50). Thus, piRNA/piRNA-L may play a regulatory role through direct interaction with proteins in physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Apolipoprotein L1 is a tumor suppressor in clear cell renal cell carcinoma metastasis [miRNA-Seq]

Project description:The 5-year survival rate of kidney cancer drops dramatically from 93% to 15% when it is metastatic. Metastasis constitutes for 30% of kidney cancer cases, in which clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most prominent subtype. By sequencing mRNA of ccRCC patient samples, we found that apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) was highly expressed in tumors compared to their adjacent normal tissues. This gene has been previously identified in a large body of kidney disease research and was reported as a potential prognosis marker in many types of cancers. However, the molecular function of APOL1 in ccRCC, especially in metastasis, remained unknown. In this study, we modulated the expression of APOL1 in various renal cancer cell lines and analyzed their proliferative, migratory, and invasive properties. Strikingly, APOL1 overexpression suppressed ccRCC metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. We then explored the mechanism by which APOL1 alleviated ccRCC malignant progression by investigating its downstream pathways. APOL1 overexpression diminished the activity of focal adhesive molecules, Akt signaling pathways, and EMT processes. Furthermore, in the upstream, we discovered that miR-30a-3p could inhibit APOL1 expression. In conclusion, our study revealed that APOL1 play a role as a tumor suppressor in ccRCC and inhibit metastasis, which may provide novel potential therapeutic approaches for ccRCC patients.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells promote lung cancer metastasis

Project description:Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) suppress antitumor immune activities and facilitate cancer progression. Although the concept of immunosuppressive MDSCs is well established, the mechanism that MDSCs regulate non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression through the paracrine signals is still lacking. Here, we reported that the infiltration of MDSCs within NSCLC tissues were associated with the progression of cancer status, and were positively correlated with the Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model establishment, and poor patient prognosis. Intratumoral MDSCs directly promoted NSCLC metastasis and highly expressed chemokines that promote NSCLC cells invasion, including CCL11. CCL11 was capable of activating the AKT and ERK signaling pathways to promote NSCLC metastasis through the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. Moreover, high expression of CCL11 was associated with a poor prognosis in lung cancer as well as other types of cancer. Our findings underscore that MDSCs produce CCL11 to promote NSCLC metastasis via activation of ERK and AKT signaling and induction of EMT, suggesting that the MDSCs-CCL11-ERK/AKT-EMT axis contains potential targets for NSCLC metastasis treatment.

The MID-PIWI module of Piwi proteins specifies nucleotide- and strand-biases of piRNAs

Project description:Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) guide Piwi Argonautes to suppress transposon activity in animal gonads. Known piRNA populations are extremely complex, with millions of individual sequences present in a single organism. Despite this complexity, specific Piwi proteins incorporate piRNAs with distinct nucleotide- and transposon strand-biases (antisense or sense) of unknown origin. Here we examined the contribution of structural domains in Piwi proteins towards defining these biases. We report the first crystal structure of the MID domain from a Piwi Argonaute and use docking experiments to show its ability to specify recognition of 5′ uridine (1U-bias) of piRNAs. Mutational analyses reveal the importance of 5’ end-recognition within the MID domain for piRNA biogenesis in vivo. Finally, domain-swapping experiments uncover an unexpected role for the MID-PIWI module of a Piwi protein in dictating the strand-orientation of its bound piRNAs. Our work identifies structural features that allow distinguishing individual Piwi members during piRNA biogenesis
