Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were identified as a vital part in the development and progression of cancer in recent years. Colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE), a lncRNA, functions as an oncogene in some malignant neoplasias, but its role in the progression of osteosarcoma (OS) is still poorly understood. To dissect the difference in the expression of CRNDE, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was utilized to evaluate it in OS tissues and cell lines (U2OS, MG63, and MNNG/HOS) compared with that in the adjacent normal tissues/osteoblast cells (hFOB1.19). The role of CRNDE in OS lines was assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation, 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling staining, flow cytometry, Transwell assays, and Western blot, respectively. The results demonstrated that the expression of CRNDE was high in OS tissues and cell lines, and partly induced by SP1. CRNDE knockdown attenuated OS cell proliferation and invasion and induced apoptosis and G0/G1 arrest. Moreover, the expression of mesenchymal markers N-cadherin, Vimentin and Snail were downregulated, while the expression of epithelial markers E-cadherin and ZO-1 were conversely upregulated due to CRNDE knockdown. The mechanistic investigations showed that CRNDE promoted glycogen synthase kinase-3β phosphorylation to activate the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. The results suggested that lncRNA CRNDE indeed contributed to OS proliferation, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition, working as an oncogene, demonstrating that lncRNA CRNDE may be a valid therapeutic target for the OS. 相似文献

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a newly-defined tumor microcirculation pattern in highly aggressive malignant tumors. We recently reported tumor growth and VM formation of gallbladder cancers through the contribution of the ephrin type a receptor 2 (EphA2)/focal adhesion kinase (FAK)/Paxillin signaling pathways. In this study, we further investigated the anti-VM activity of norcantharidin (NCTD) as a VM inhibitor for gallbladder cancers and the underlying mechanisms. In vivo and in vitro experiments to determine the effects of NCTD on tumor growth, host survival, VM formation of GBC-SD nude mouse xenografts, and vasculogenic-like networks, malignant phenotypes i.e., proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and migration of GBC-SD cells. Expression of VM signaling-related markers EphA2, FAK and Paxillin in vivo and in vitro were examined by immunofluorescence, western blotting and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), respectively. The results showed that after treatment with NCTD, GBC-SD cells were unable to form VM structures when injecting into nude mouse, growth of the xenograft was inhibited and these observations were confirmed by facts that VM formation by three-dimensional (3-D) matrix, proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration of GBC-SD cells were affected; and survival time of the xenograft mice was prolonged. Furthermore, expression of EphA2, FAK and Paxillin proteins/mRNAs of the xenografts was downregulated. Thus, we concluded that NCTD has potential anti-VM activity against human gallbladder cancers; one of the underlying mechanisms may be via blocking the EphA2/FAK/Paxillin signaling pathway. 相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a type of malignant primary bone cancer, which is highly aggressive and occurs more commonly in children and adolescents. Thus, novel potential drugs and therapeutic methods are urgently needed. In the present study, we aimed to elucidate the effects and mechanism of melatonin on OS cells to provide a potential treatment strategy for OS. The cell survival rate, cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis were examined by trypan blue assay, MTT, colony formation, wound healing, transwell invasion and attachment/detachment assay, respectively. The expression of relevant lncRNAs in OS cells was determined by real-time qPCR analysis. The functional roles of lncRNA JPX in OS cells were further examined by gain and loss of function assays. The protein expression was measured by western blot assay. Melatonin inhibited the cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis of OS cells (Saos-2, MG63 and U2OS) in a dose-dependent manner. Melatonin treatment significantly downregulated the expression of lncRNA JPX in Saos-2, MG63 and U2OS cells. Overexpression of lncRNA JPX into OS cell lines elevated the cell viability and proliferation, which was accompanied by the increased metastasis. We also found that melatonin inhibited the OS progression by suppressing the expression of lncRNA JPX via regulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Our results suggested that melatonin inhibited the biological functions of OS cells by repressing the expression of lncRNA JPX through regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway, which indicated that melatonin might be applied as a potentially useful and effective natural agent in the treatment of OS. 相似文献

This study aims to reveal the regulatory mechanism of lncRNAs–miRNAs–mRNAs network during the proliferative phase of liver regeneration (LR). High-throughput sequencing technology was performed, and a total of 1,738 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE lncRNAs), 167 known differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs), and 2,727 differentially expressed mRNAs were identified. Then, the target DE lncRNAs and DE mRNAs regulated by the same miRNAs were screened and a ceRNA regulatory network containing 32 miRNAs, 107 lncRNAs, and 270 mRNAs was constructed. Insulin signaling pathway, pyrimidine metabolism, axon guidance, carbohydrate digestion and absorption, and pyruvate metabolism were significantly enriched in the network. Through literature review and the regulatory relationship between lncRNAs and miRNAs, nine core lncRNAs were identified, which might play important roles during the proliferative phase of rat LR. This study analyzed lncRNA–miRNA–mRNA regulatory network for the first time during the proliferative phase of rat LR, providing clues for exploring the mechanism of LR and the treatment of liver diseases. 相似文献

Growing evidence has revealed that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have an important impact on tumorigenesis and tumor progression via a mechanism involving competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs). However, their use in predicting the survival of a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to develop a novel lncRNA expression–based risk score system to accurately predict the survival of patients with HCC. In our study, using expression profiles downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database, the differentially expressed messenger RNAs (mRNAs), lncRNAs, and microRNAs (miRNAs) were explored in patients with HCC and normal liver tissues, and then a ceRNA network constructed. A risk score system was established between lncRNA expression of the ceRNA network and overall survival (OS) or recurrence-free survival (RFS); it was further analyzed for associations with the clinical features of patients with HCC. In HCC, 473 differentially expressed lncRNAs, 63 differentially expressed miRNAs, and 1417 differentially expressed mRNAs were detected. The ceRNA network comprised 41 lncRNA nodes, 12 miRNA nodes, 24 mRNA nodes, and 172 edges. The lncRNA expression–based risk score system for OS was constructed based on six lncRNAs (MYLK-AS1, AL359878.1, PART1, TSPEAR-AS1, C10orf91, and LINC00501), while the risk score system for RFS was based on four lncRNAs (WARS2-IT1, AL359878.1, AL357060.1, and PART1). Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses showed the risk score systems for OS or RFS were significant independent factors adjusted for clinical factors. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed the area under the curve for the risk score system was 0.704 for OS, and 0.71 for RFS. Our result revealed a lncRNA expression–based risk score system for OS or RFS can effectively predict the survival of patients with HCC and aid in good clinical decision-making. 相似文献

Plenty of evidence has suggested that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a vital role in competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks. Poorly differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma (PDHCC) is a malignant phenotype. This paper aimed to explore the effect and the underlying regulatory mechanism of lncRNAs on PDHCC as a kind of ceRNA. Additionally, prognosis prediction was assessed. A total of 943 messenger RNAs (mRNAs), 86 miRNAs, and 468 lncRNAs that were differentially expressed between 137 PDHCCs and 235 well-differentiated HCCs were identified. Thereafter, a ceRNA network related to the dysregulated lncRNAs was established according to bioinformatic analysis and included 29 lncRNAs, 9 miRNAs, and 96 mRNAs. RNA-related overall survival (OS) curves were determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. The lncRNA ARHGEF7-AS2 was markedly correlated with OS in HCC (P = .041). Moreover, Cox regression analysis revealed that patients with low ARHGEF7-AS2 expression were associated with notably shorter survival time (P = .038). In addition, the area under the curve values of the lncRNA signature for 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival were 0.806, 0.741, and 0.701, respectively. Furthermore, a lncRNA nomogram was established, and the C-index of the internal validation was 0.717. In vitro experiments were performed to demonstrate that silencing ARHGEF7-AS2 expression significantly promoted HCC cell proliferation and migration. Taken together, our findings shed more light on the ceRNA network related to lncRNAs in PDHCC, and ARHGEF7-AS2 may be used as an independent biomarker to predict the prognosis of HCC. 相似文献

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a newly identified regulator of tumor formation and tumor progression. The function and expression of lncRNAs remain to be fully elucidated, but recent studies have begun to address their importance in human health and disease. The lncRNA, SRA, known as steroid receptor activator, acts as an important modulator of gynecological cancer, and its expression may affect biological functions including proliferation, apoptosis, steroid formation, and muscle development. However, it is still not well known whether SRA is involved in the regulation of ovarian cancer. The present study investigated the molecular function and association between SRA expression and clinicopathological factors. In ovarian cancer cell lines, SRA knockdown and overexpression regulated cell migration, proliferation, and invasion. Both in vivo and in vitro experiments using knockdown and overexpression showed that SRA potently regulated epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and NOTCH pathway components.Further, clinical data confirmed that SRA was a significant predictor of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival and patients with ovarian cancer exhibiting high expression of SRA exhibited higher recurrence rates than patients with low SRA expression. In conclusion, the present study indicates that SRA has clinical significance as its expression can predict the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients. High expression of the lncRNA SRA is strongly correlated with recurrence-free survival of ovarian cancer patients. 相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most prevalent and fatal cancers. Studying the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) alterations in hepatocellular carcinoma may lead to new therapeutic strategies. We checked whether there were correlations between The Cancer Genome Atlas expression profiles of the differentially expressed lncRNAs and their DNA methylation status or the copy number variations for hepatocellular carcinoma. We obtained 41 lncRNAs that were differentially expressed between tumor and normal samples, and their DNA methylation status was negatively correlated with the expression levels. We identified five lncRNAs that were recurrently amplified or deleted in tumor samples, but none of them were associated with the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels. To obtain the biological function of these lncRNAs, the coexpressed mRNAs in the hepatocellular carcinoma were figured out. A total of 10 lncRNAs were highly correlated with at least one gene. Six out of the ten lncRNAs were already known to be related with cancer previously. LINC01615 had 72 coexpressed genes, and we carried out the gene ontology (GO) term enrichment for these protein-coding genes. The results suggested that these lncRNAs were associated with extracellular matrix organization. To summarize, we identified 41 potentially cancer-related lncRNAs. In particular, we proposed that LINC01615 potentially affected the extracellular matrix and had further impacts on the metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. 相似文献

Increasing evidence has found that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and message RNAs (mRNAs) play an important role in the progress of autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD). So, in this study, the different expressed of lncRNA and mRNA was screened by microarray analysis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). To further investigate the relationship among the differentially expressed genes, the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis and Gene ontology (GO) were used for biofunctions and signaling pathways analysis, respectively. Finally, the interaction relationship between lncRNA and mRNAs was analysis with lncRNA-mRNA coexpression network. The result found that the abnormal expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs were 1615 and 1913, respectively. The altered genes included CD40LG, IFNG, CTLA4, FAS, STAT1, STAT3, and STAT4. These were enriched in presentation and antigen processing, Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation, natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity, B cell receptor signaling pathway, Th17 cell differentiation, and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), all of which had been suggested to be associated with immunopathogenic mechanisms and AITD-induced pathophysiologic changes. A coexpression network profile was contained with 126 network nodes and 477 connections which were based on seven mRNAs and 119 interacted lncRNAs. The outcomes of differentially expressed lncRNAs and their coreralated mRNAs in our study revealed that lncRNAs involved in immunopathogenic mechanisms may play a crital role in the pathogenesis of AITD. 相似文献

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) exert key regulators in cancer development and progression. The functional significance of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 20 (SNHG20) was reported in gastric cancer (GC); however, the underlying molecular mechanism in GC development is largely unknown. Here, our results showed that the lncRNA SNHG20 expression was significantly higher in GC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. Higher lncRNA SNHG20 expression was highly associated with tumor size and lymphatic metastasis of patients. Patients with higher lncRNA SNHG20 expression predicted a short disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Furthermore, lncRNA SNHG20 expression negatively associated with miR-495-3p expression and regulated miR-495-3p expression. Function assays confirmed that lncRNA SNHG20 knockdown using RNA interference suppressed cell proliferation and invasion of GC by negatively regulating miR-495-3p expression. Moreover, we demonstrated that lncRNA SNHG20 inhibited zinc finger protein X-linked (ZFX) expression by negatively miR-495-3p expression in GC cells. In vivo, the current study also indicated that lncRNA SNHG20 knockdown reduced the tumor growth by downregulating ZFX expression. Thus, our results implied that inhibition of SNHG20/miR-495-3p/ZFX axis may provide valuable target for GC treatment. 相似文献

Although increasing long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified by high-throughput sequencing, their functions in human cancer remain largely unknown. The function of lncRNA miR143HG has not been explored before. In the present study, we found that miR143HG expression was significantly downregulated in bladder cancer tissues (BCa) compared with normal tissues. We showed that miR143HG high expression was associated with a high survival rate in BCa patients. Gain-of-function assays demonstrated that miR143HG overexpression suppressed the proliferation, arrested cell cycle progression, and attenuated migration and invasion of BCa cells in vitro. In vivo assay illustrated that ectopic expression of miR143HG inhibited BCa growth in vivo. Mechanistically, miR143HG was identified to inhibit the level of miR-1275, whereas miR-1275 directly targeted AXIN2, a negative regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Restoration of miR-1275 or knockdown of AXIN2 significantly rescued the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of BCa cells. In summary, our findings demonstrated that miR143HG/miR-1275/AXIN2 axis regulates BCa development by modulating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. 相似文献

The incidence of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) is increasing. Accumulating evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in HPH, but the functions and mechanism have yet to be fully elucidated. In the present study, we established a HPH rat model with 8 h of hypoxia exposure (10% O2) per day for 21 days. High-throughput sequencing identified 60 differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs, 20 DE miRNAs and 695 DE mRNAs in rat lung tissue. qRT-PCR verified the accuracy of the results. The DE mRNAs were significantly enriched in immune response, inflammatory response, leukocyte migration, cell cycle, cellular response to interleukin-1, IL-17 signalling pathway, cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction and Toll-like receptor signalling pathway. According to the theory of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks, lncRNA–miRNA–mRNA network was constructed by Cytoscape software, 16 miRNAs and 144 mRNAs. The results suggested that seven DE lncRNAs (Ly6l, AABR07038849.2, AABR07069008.2, AABR07064873.1, AABR07001382.1, AABR07068161.1 and AABR07060341.2) may serve as molecular sponges of the corresponding miRNAs and play a major role in HPH. 相似文献

The present study aimed to analyze long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profiles in septic mice heart and to identify potential lncRNAs and mRNAs that be responsible for cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction during sepsis. Mice were treated with 10 mg/kg of lipopolysaccharides to induce sepsis. LncRNAs and mRNAs expression were evaluated by using lncRNA and mRNA microarray or real‐time polymerase chain reaction technique. LncRNA‐mRNA coexpression network assay, Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis were performed. The results showed that 1275 lncRNAs were differentially expressed in septic myocardium compared with those in the control group. A total of 2769 mRNAs were dysregulated in septic mice heart, most of which are mainly related to the process of inflammation, mitochondrial metabolism, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Coexpression network analysis showed that 14 lncRNAs were highly correlated with 11 mitochondria‐related differentially expressed mRNA. Among all lncRNAs and their cis‐acting mRNAs, 41 lncRNAs‐mRNA pairs (such as NONMMUG004378 and Apaf1 gene) were enriched in GO terms and KEGG pathways. In summary, we gained some specific lncRNAs and their potential target mRNAs that might be involved in mitochondrial dysfunction in septic myocardium. These findings provide a panoramic view of lncRNA and might allow developing new treatment strategies for sepsis. 相似文献
