MicroRNA-494 suppresses cell proliferation and induces senescence in A549 lung cancer cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small functional RNAs that regulate mRNAs for degradation or translational suppression. In the present study, we aimed to reveal functional importance of miRNA‐494 (miR‐494) in A549 human lung cancer cells. Materials and methods: We established A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. Next, we sought to investigate insulin‐like growth factor 2 mRNA‐binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) mRNA as an miR‐494 target. For this, we constructed a reporter plasmid bearing potential miR‐494 binding sequences derived from the 3′‐untranslated region (3′‐UTR) of IGF2BP1 mRNA in the 3′‐UTR of the luciferase gene. Results: Through comparison between miR‐494 expressing cells and control cells, we revealed that miR‐494 suppressed cell proliferation and colony forming activity, and induced senescence. Reporter activity was inhibited by miR‐494. In addition, IGF2BP1 mRNA levels were down‐regulated in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. IGF2BP1 has been shown to bind and suppress IGF2 mRNA, and this could be a reason why IGF2BP1 can regulate cell function. Therefore, we analysed IGF2 mRNA levels and revealed that IGF2 was up‐regulated in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. Finally, elevated IGF2 mRNA levels in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494 were suppressed to basal level by an miR‐494 inhibitor. Conclusions: Taken together, IGF2BP1 and its downstream target IGF2 could be a crucial axis for miR‐494 in regulation of the destiny of A549 cells. 相似文献

The insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), a docking protein for both the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) and the insulin receptor, is known to send a mitogenic, anti-apoptotic, and anti-differentiation signal. Several micro RNAs (miRs) are suggested by the data base as possible candidates for targeting IRS-1. We show here that one of the miRs predicted by the data base, miR145, whether transfected as a synthetic oligonucleotide or expressed from a plasmid, causes down-regulation of IRS-1 in human colon cancer cells. IRS-1 mRNA is not decreased by miR145, while it is down-regulated by an siRNA targeting IRS-1. Targeting of the IRS-1 3'-untranslated region (UTR) by miR145 was confirmed using a reporter gene (luciferase) expressing the miR145 binding sites of the IRS-1 3'-UTR. In agreement with the role of IRS-1 in cell proliferation, we show that treatment of human colon cancer cells with miR145 causes growth arrest comparable to the use of an siRNA against IRS-1. Taken together, these results identify miR145 as a micro RNA that down-regulates the IRS-1 protein, and inhibits the growth of human cancer cells. 相似文献

Expression profiling of microRNAs in melanoma lesional skin biopsies compared with normal donor skin biopsies, as well as melanoma cell lines compared with normal melanocytes, revealed that hsa‐miR‐206 was down‐regulated in melanoma (?75.4‐fold, P = 1.7 × 10?4). MiR‐206 has been implicated in a large number of cancers, including breast, lung, colorectal, ovarian, and prostate cancers; however, its role in tumor development remains largely unknown, its biologic function is poorly characterized, and its targets affecting cancer cells are largely unknown. MiR‐206 reduced growth and migration/invasion of multiple melanoma cell lines. Bioinformatics identified cell cycle genes CDK2, CDK4, Cyclin C, and Cyclin D1 as strong candidate targets. Western blots and 3′UTR reporter gene assays revealed that miR‐206 inhibited translation of CDK4, Cyclin D1, and Cyclin C. Additionally, hsa‐miR‐206 transfection induced G1 arrest in multiple melanoma cell lines. These observations support hsa‐miR‐206 as a tumor suppressor in melanoma and identify Cyclin C, Cyclin D1, and CDK4 as miR‐206 targets. 相似文献

Insulin receptor substrate‐4 (IRS‐4) transmits signals from the insulin‐like growth factor receptor (IGF‐IR) and the insulin receptor (IR) to the PI3K/AKT and the ERK1/2 pathways. IRS‐4 expression increases dramatically after partial hepatectomy and plays an important role in HepG2 hepatoblastoma cell line proliferation/differentiation. In human hepatocarcinoma, IRS‐4 overexpression has been associated with tumor development. Herein, we describe the mechanism whereby IRS‐4 depletion induced by RNA interference (siRNA) sensitizes HepG2 cells to treatment with actinomycin D (Act D) and combined treatment with Act D plus tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α). Similar results have been obtained in HuH 7 and Chang cell lines. Act D therapy drove the cells to a mitochondrial‐dependent apoptotic program involving cytochrome c release, caspase 3 activation, PARP fragmentation and DNA laddering. TNF‐α amplifies the effect of Act D on HepG2 cell apoptosis increasing c‐jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) activity, IκB‐α proteolysis and glutathione depletion. IRS‐4 depleted cells that were treated with Act D showed an increase in cytochrome c release and procaspase 3 and PARP proteolysis with respect to control cells. The mechanism involved in IRS‐4 action is independent of Akt, IκB kinase and JNK. IRS‐4 down regulation, however, decreased γ‐glutamylcysteine synthetase content and cell glutathione level in the presence of Act D plus TNF‐α. These results suggest that IRS‐4 protects HepG2 cells from oxidative stress induced by drug treatment. J. Cell. Biochem. 108: 1292–1301, 2009. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Insulin resistance (IR) is a common etiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D) defined by a state of decreased reactivity to insulin in multiple organs, such as the liver. This study aims to investigate how microRNA‐122‐5p (miR‐122) regulates the hepatic IR in vitro. We first found that the miR‐122 level was upregulated in the liver of rats fed with a high‐fat diet and injected with streptozotocin (T2D rats), while the expression level of insulin‐like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF‐1R), a potential target of miR‐122, was downregulated in the diabetic liver. In vitro, glucosamine‐induced IR was introduced in HepG2 hepatic cells, and the levels of miR‐122 and IGF‐1R were further assessed. An increase of miR‐122 level and a decrease of IGF‐IR level were observed in IR hepatic cells, which was the same as that in the diabetic liver. Results of the luciferase reporter assay validated IGF‐1R as a direct target of miR‐122. Moreover, in IR HepG2 cells, antagonizing miR‐122 with its specific inhibitor enhanced glucose uptake and suppressed the expression of glucose 6‐phosphatase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, two key enzymes in regulating gluconeogenesis. Such alterations induced by the miR‐122 inhibitor in IR hepatic cells were impaired when IGF‐1R was simultaneously knocked down. In addition, the PI3K/Akt pathway was deactivated in IR cells, and then reactivated with miR‐122 inhibitor transfection. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that miR‐122 is able to regulate IR in hepatic cells by targeting IGF‐1R. 相似文献

Lung cancer is the most common incident cancer, with a high mortality worldwide, and non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 85% of cases. Numerous studies have shown that the aberrant expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) is associated with the development and progression of cancers. However, the clinical significance and biological roles of most miRNAs in NSCLC remain elusive. In this study, we identified a novel miRNA, miR‐34b‐3p, that suppressed NSCLC cell growth and investigated the underlying mechanism. miR‐34b‐3p was down‐regulated in both NSCLC tumour tissues and lung cancer cell lines (H1299 and A549). The overexpression of miR‐34b‐3p suppressed lung cancer cell (H1299 and A549) growth, including proliferation inhibition, cell cycle arrest and increased apoptosis. Furthermore, luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR‐34b‐3p could bind to the cyclin‐dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) mRNA 3′‐untranslated region (3′‐UTR) to suppress the expression of CDK4 in NSCLC cells. H1299 and A549 cell proliferation inhibition is mediated by cell cycle arrest and apoptosis with CDK4 interference. Moreover, CDK4 overexpression effectively reversed miR‐34‐3p‐repressed NSCLC cell growth. In conclusion, our findings reveal that miR‐34b‐3p might function as a tumour suppressor in NSCLC by targeting CDK4 and that miR‐34b‐3p may, therefore, serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC. 相似文献

The effect of wnt/β‐catenin signalling in the response to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains controversial. The membrane receptor adaptor protein Disabled‐2 (Dab2) is a tumour suppressor protein and has a critical role in stem cell specification. We recently demonstrated that down‐regulation of Dab2 regulates cardiac protein expression and wnt/β‐catenin activity in mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in response to transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β1). Although Dab2 expression has been shown to have effects in stem cells and tumour suppression, the molecular mechanisms regulating this expression are still undefined. We identified putative binding sites for miR‐145 in the 3′‐UTR of Dab2. In MSC in culture, we observed that TGF‐β1 treatment led to rapid and sustained up‐regulation of pri–miR‐145. Through gain and loss of function studies we demonstrate that miR‐145 up‐regulation was required for the down‐regulation of Dab2 and increased β‐catenin activity in response to TGF‐β1. To begin to define how Dab2 might regulate wnt/β‐catenin in the heart following AMI, we quantified myocardial Dab2 as a function of time after left anterior descending ligation. There was no significant Dab2 expression in sham‐operated myocardium. Following AMI, Dab2 levels were rapidly up‐regulated in cardiac myocytes in the infarct border zone. The increase in cardiac myocyte Dab2 expression correlated with the rapid and sustained down‐regulation of myocardial pri–miR‐145 expression following AMI. Our data demonstrate a novel and critical role for miR‐145 expression as a regulator of Dab2 expression and β‐catenin activity in response to TGF‐β1 and hypoxia. 相似文献

Micro‐RNA‐145 (miR145), a tumor suppressor miR, dramatically inhibits growth of cancer cells in culture and plays a significant role in human stem cells differentiation. We have isolated a human genomic sequence of 864 bp comprising the pre‐miR and its flanking sequences. The cloned miR145 genomic sequence expresses a mature miR145 in transfected cells. We show here that flanking sequences on either side of the pre‐miR sequence can modulate its expression levels. Surprisingly, a highly conserved sequence 3′ to the pre‐miR plays a crucial role in miR145 expression. J. Cell. Physiol. 226: 602–607, 2011. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to determine the expression and roles of miR‐346 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We showed that miR‐346 was upregulated in NPC tissues compared with adjacent non‐tumorous nasopharyngeal tissues. Inhibition of miR‐346 significantly attenuated the migration and invasion of NPC cells. Luciferase reporter assay showed that miR‐346 targeted the 3′‐untranslated region (3′‐UTR) of breast cancer metastasis suppressor 1 (BRMS1). Overexpression of miR‐346 suppressed the endogenous expression of BRMS1 in NPC cells. There was a significant negative correlation between miR‐346 and BRMS1 protein expression in NPC tissues (r = ?0.372, P = 0.008). Rescue experiments demonstrated that overexpression of BRMS1 lacking the 3′‐UTR impaired the invasiveness of NPC cells transfected with miR‐346 mimic. Taken together, miR‐346 shows the ability to promote the migration and invasion of nasopharyngeal cancer cells via targeting BRMS1 and represents a potential therapeutic target for NPC. 相似文献

Increasing evidence supports a connection between cancer and metabolism and emphasizes the need to understand how tumors respond to the metabolic microenvironment and how tumor cell metabolism is regulated. The insulin receptor (IR) and its close family member the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) mediate the cellular response to insulin in normal cells and their function is tightly regulated to maintain metabolic homeostasis. These receptors are also expressed on tumor cells and their expression correlates with tumor progression and poor prognosis. Understanding how the IR/IGF-1R pathway functions in tumors is increasing in importance as the efficacy of drugs that target metabolic pathways, such as metformin, are investigated in prospective clinical trials. This review will focus on key signaling intermediates of the IR and IGF-1R, the Insulin Receptor Substrate (IRS) proteins, with an emphasis on IRS-2, and discuss how these adaptor proteins play a pivotal role at the intersection of metabolism and cancer.Key words: IRS proteins, insulin receptor, IGF-1 receptor, metabolism, cancer, metformin 相似文献

Ovarian cancer (OC) causes more deaths than any other gynecological cancer. Many cellular pathways have been elucidated to be associated with OC development and progression. Specifically, the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor/insulin receptor substrate 1 (IGF1R/IRS1) pathway participates in OC development. Moreover, accumulating evidence has shown that microRNA deregulation contributes to tumor initiation and progression. Here, our study aimed to investigate the molecular functions and regulatory mechanisms of miR-150, specifically, in OC. We found that the expression of miR-150-5p/3p and their precursor, mir-150, was downregulated in OC tissues; lower mir-150 levels were associated with poor OC patient outcomes. Ectopic mir-150 expression inhibited OC cell growth and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, both IRS1 and IGF1R were confirmed as direct targets of miR-150-5p/3p, and the miR-150-IGF1R/IRS1 axis exerted antitumor effects via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Forkhead box protein 3 (FoxP3) positively regulated the expression of miR-150-5p/3p by binding to the mir-150 promoter. In turn, the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway downregulated FoxP3 and miR-150-5p/3p. Taken together, these findings indicate that a complex FoxP3-miR-150-IGF1R/IRS1-PI3K/AKT/mTOR feedback loop regulates OC pathogenesis, providing a novel mechanism for miR-150 as a tumor suppressor miRNA in OC.Subject terms: Cancer, Translational research 相似文献

Background information. miRNAs (microRNAs) are a class of non‐coding RNAs that inhibit gene expression by binding to recognition elements, mainly in the 3′ UTR (untranslated region) of mRNA. A single miRNA can target several hundred mRNAs, leading to a complex metabolic network. miR‐16 (miRNA‐16), located on chromosome 13q14, is involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis regulation; it may interfere with either oncogenic or tumour suppressor pathways, and is implicated in leukaemogenesis. These data prompted us to search for and validate novel targets of miR‐16. Results. In the present study, by using a combined bioinformatics and molecular approach, we identified two novel putative targets of miR‐16, caprin‐1 (cytoplasmic activation/proliferation‐associated protein‐1) and HMGA1 (high‐mobility group A1), and we also studied cyclin E which had been previously recognized as an miR‐16 target by bioinformatics database. Using luciferase activity assays, we demonstrated that miR‐16 interacts with the 3′ UTR of the three target mRNAs. We showed that miR‐16, in MCF‐7 and HeLa cell lines, down‐regulates the expression of caprin‐1, HMGA1a, HMGA1b and cyclin E at the protein level, and of cyclin E, HMGA1a and HMGA1b at the mRNA levels. Conclusions. Taken together, our data demonstrated that miR‐16 can negatively regulate two new targets, HMGA1 and caprin‐1, which are involved in cell proliferation. In addition, we also showed that the inhibition of cyclin E expression was due, at least in part, to a decrease in its mRNA stability. 相似文献

Accumulating studies have indicated that long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial modulators in cancer biology. In this work, we investigated the function and related mechanisms of LINC01436 in the progression of gastric cancer (GC). We demonstrated that LINC01436 was significantly up‐regulated in cancerous tissues of GC samples, and its overexpression was correlated with a worse prognosis for the patients. In the GC cell line BGC823 cells, LINC01436 knockdown repressed the proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells; conversely, in GC cell line AGS cells, overexpression of LINC01436 showed the opposite effects. We then demonstrated that miR‐585, a tumor suppressor, could bind to both LINC01436 and the 3′‐UTR of F‐box protein 11 (FBOX11), and LINC01436 was proved to sponge miR‐585 and repress it, and indirectly promoted the expression of FBOX11. Collectively, these results suggested that LINC01436 was an oncogenic lncRNA in GC and promoted proliferation and metastasis of GC cell via regulating miR‐585 and FBOX11. 相似文献
