          Abstract

          Purpose

          Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the first leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Long noncoding RNA KCNQ1 overlapping transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1) was involved in the progression of multiple cancers by sponging target miRNA. We aimed to explore the pathological mechanism of KCNQ1OT1 in NSCLC progression.

          Methods

          The expression of KCNQ1OT1, miR-204-5p and autophagy-related gene 3 (ATG3) was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). 3-(4, 5-Dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry assay were conducted for the detection of cell proliferation and apoptosis, respectively. Western blot assay was performed to examine the protein levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2), BCL2-Associated X (Bax), cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and P62. The interaction between miR-204-5p and KCNQ1OT1 or ATG3 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter system and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. Murine xenograft assay was conducted to explore the function of KCNQ1OT1 in vivo. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining assay was used for the analysis of ki67-positive cell percentage.

          Results

          The expression of KCNQ1OT1 and ATG3 was up-regulated whereas miR-204-5p was down-regulated in NSCLC tumors and cells. MiR-204-5p was inversely correlated with KCNQ1OT1 or ATG3. In addition, KCNQ1OT1 knockdown facilitated apoptosis, inhibited autophagy and proliferation of NSCLC cells in vitro and blocked tumor growth in vivo. However, the miR-204-5p inhibitor reversed the effects. More importantly, ATG3 was a target gene of miR-204-5p and ATG3 overexpression restored the effect of miR-204-5p on NSCLC cell progression.

          Conclusion

          KCNQ1OT1 promotes cell proliferation and autophagy and inhibits cell apoptosis via regulating miR-204-5p/ATG3 axis, providing a promising target for NSCLC therapy.

          LncRNA XLOC_006390 facilitates cervical cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis as a ceRNA against miR-331-3p and miR-338-3p

          Xiaotian Luan, Yankui Wang (2018)
          Objective Cervical cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. Our previous results showed that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) XLOC_006390 plays an important role in cervical cancer. In this study, we have explored the mechanism of action of lncRNA XLOC_006390. Methods LncRNA XLOC_006390 was proposed to exercise its function as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA), and its potential targeted miRNAs was predicted through the database LncBase Predicted v.2. Two miRNAs, miR-331-3p, and miR-338-3p, were chosen for the study. Expression of miRNAs and lncRNA in cervical cancer cells and tissues was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. To determine the correlation, silencing of XLOC_006390, over-expression of miR-331-3p, and miR-338-3p was performed in SiHa and Caski cell lines, respectively. Results Based on the interactive effect between miRNA and lncRNA, miR-331-3p and miR-338-3p were significantly downregulated in cervical cancer cells and tissues, and their expression levels were negatively related to that of lncRNA. Our results also showed that the expression of miR-331-3p target gene NRP2, miR-338-3p target genes PKM2, EYA2 was significantly downregulated when the XLOC_006390 was knocked down. Further, XLOC_006390 was found to facilitate cervical cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis by downregulating miR-331-3p and miR-338-3p expression. Conclusion Taken together, our study demonstrated that XLOC_006390 may serve as a ceRNA and reversely regulates the expression of miR-331-3p and miR-338-3p, thus facilitating cervical cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis.

            Dysregulation of microRNA-204 mediates migration and invasion of endometrial cancer by regulating FOXC1.

            Raymond Chung, Roy T H Cheung, Daisy Wong … (2012)
            MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate mRNA stability and protein expression, and certain miRNAs have been demonstrated to act either as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Differential miRNA expression signatures have been documented in many human cancers but the role of miRNAs in endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) remains poorly understood. This study identifies significantly dysregulated miRNAs of EEC cells, and characterizes their impact on the malignant phenotype. We studied the expression of 365 human miRNAs using Taqman low density arrays in EECs and normal endometriums. Candidate differentially expressed miRNAs were validated by quantitative real-time PCR. Expression of highly dysregulated miRNAs was examined in vitro through the effect of anti-/pre-miRNA transfection on the malignant phenotype. We identified 16 significantly dysregulated miRNAs in EEC and 7 of these are novel findings with respect to EEC. Antagonizing the function of miR-7, miR-194 and miR-449b, or overexpressing miR-204, repressed migration, invasion and extracellular matrix-adhesion in HEC1A endometrial cancer cells. FOXC1 was determined as a target gene of miR-204, and two binding sites in the 3'-untranslated region were validated by dual luciferase reporter assay. FOXC1 expression was inversely related to miR-204 expression in EEC. Functional analysis revealed the involvement of FOXC1 in migration and invasion of HEC1A cells. Our results present dysfunctional miRNAs in endometrial cancer and identify a crucial role for miR-204-FOXC1 interaction in endometrial cancer progression. This miRNA signature offers a potential biomarker for predicting EEC outcomes, and targeting of these cancer progression- and metastasis-related miRNAs offers a novel potential therapeutic strategy for the disease.

              MicroRNA-331-3p promotes proliferation and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma by targeting PH domain and leucine-rich repeat protein phosphatase.

              Lian Yang, Hao Yang, Jian-Feng Fang … (2014)
              Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly invasive tumor with frequent intrahepatic or pulmonary metastasis, which is the main reason for high recurrence and poor survival of HCC after liver resection. However, the mechanisms for metastasis remain incompletely clear. Given that microRNAs (miRNAs) are implicated in HCC progression, we explored a potential role of miRNAs in metastasis by performing miRNA expression profiling in three subtypes of HCC with different metastatic potentials. We discovered miR-331-3p as one of most significantly overexpressed miRNAs and highly associated with metastasis of HCC. Increased expression of miR-331-3p was correlated with poor long-term survival of HCC. We provided both in vivo and in vitro evidence demonstrating that miR-331-3p promoted proliferation and metastasis of HCC cells. Using an integrated approach, we uncovered that PH domain and leucine-rich repeat protein phosphatase (PHLPP) was a novel target of miR-331-3p. Indeed, the miR-331-3p-mediated effects were antagonized by reexpression of PHLPP or mimicked by silencing of PHLPP. We further showed that miR-331-3p-mediated inhibition of PHLPP resulted in stimulation of protein kinase B (AKT) and subsequent epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). Finally, inhibition of miR-331-3p through a jetPEI-mediated delivery of anti-miR-331-3p vector resulted in marked inhibition of proliferation and metastasis of HCC in xenograft mice. miR-331-3p promotes proliferation and EMT-mediated metastasis of HCC through suppression of PHLPP-mediated dephosphorylation of AKT. Our work implicates miR-331-3p as a potential prognostic biomarker and a novel therapeutic target. © 2014 by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases.
