MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in cancer development. By cloning and sequencing of a HPV16(+) CaSki cell small RNA library, we isolated 174 miRNAs (including the novel miR-193c) which could be grouped into 46 different miRNA species, with miR-21, miR-24, miR-27a, and miR-205 being most abundant. We chose for further study 10 miRNAs according to their cloning frequency and associated their levels in 10 cervical cancer- or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia-derived cell lines. No correlation was observed between their expression with the presence or absence of an integrated or episomal HPV genome. All cell lines examined contained no detectable miR-143 and miR-145. HPV-infected cell lines expressed a different set of miRNAs when grown in organotypic raft cultured as compared to monolayer cell culture, including expression of miR-143 and miR-145. This suggests a correlation between miRNA expression and tissue differentiation. Using miRNA array analyses for age-matched normal cervix and cervical cancer tissues, in combination with northern blot verification, we identified significantly deregulated miRNAs in cervical cancer tissues, with miR-126, miR-143, and miR-145 downregulation and miR-15b, miR-16, miR-146a, and miR-155 upregulation. Functional studies showed that both miR-143 and miR-145 are suppressive to cell growth. When introduced into cell lines, miR-146a was found to promote cell proliferation. Collectively, our data indicate that downregulation of miR-143 and miR-145 and upregulation of miR-146a play a role in cervical carcinogenesis.  相似文献

Emerging evidence have discovered that circular RNAs (circRNAs) may serve as diagnostic or tumor promising biomarkers. This study aimed to investigate how circular RNA ADAMTS14 (circADAMTS14) regulates microRNA-572/ regulator of calcineurin 1(miR-572/ RCAN1) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The expression profiles of circRNA/microRNA (mRNA) between HCC tissues and paired adjacent tissues were analyzed via microarray analysis. The expressions of circADAMTS14, miR-572, and RCAN1 were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The protein expression level of RCAN1 in HCC cells was detected by western blot. The viability and apoptosis levels of HCC cell lines were measured by the cell counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and fluorescence-activated cell sorter. The invasiveness and migration of cells were detected based on the transwell and wound-healing assay, respectively. The dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to reveal circADAMTS14 and RCAN1 as a potential target of miR-572, which was predicted by TargetScan and miRBase. The effect of circADAMTS14 on HCC cells was demonstrated by tumor formation in nude mice in vivo. CircADAMTS14 and RCAN1 were lowly expressed in HCC clinical specimens and cell lines using microarrays and qRT-PCR, but miR-572 inversely. Our study further verified the direct interaction between circADAMTS14 and RCAN1 with miR-572 via the dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Overexpressed circADAMTS14 and RCAN1 induced apoptosis of HCC cells and inhibited cell proliferation and invasion. But overexpressed miR-572 could decrease apoptosis of HCC cells and promote proliferation and invasion. In vivo, circADAMTS14 inhibited the tumor growth, correlated positively with the protein expression levels of RCAN1. Our results demonstrated that circADAMTS14 might suppress HCC progression through regulating miR-572/ RCAN1 as the competing endogenous RNA.  相似文献

Circular RNA (circRNA) have been shown to exert vital functions in the pathological progressions of ovarian cancer (OC). Herein, this study aimed to investigate the role and mechanisms of circ_0015756 in OC progression. Levels of circ_0015756, microRNA (miR)? 145–5p and phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 (PSAT1) were detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot or immunohistochemistry assays. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion were determined using cell counting kit-8, 5-Ethynyl-2′-Deoxyuridine (Edu) incorporation, flow cytometry, transwell and Western blot assays. The binding interaction between miR-145–5p and circ_0015756 or PSAT1 was confirmed by bioinformatics prediction and dual-luciferase reporter assay. Tumor formation assay in nude mice was performed to determine the tumor growth in vivo. Circ_0015756 was highly expressed in OC tissues and cells. Knockdown of circ_0015756 suppressed cancer cell growth, migration and invasion in vitro, as well as impeded tumor growth in vivo. In a mechanical study, circ_0015756 directly bound to miR-145–5p, and inhibition of miR-145–5p reversed the effects of circ_0015756 knockdown on OC cells. Moreover, miR-145–5p directly targeted PSAT1, and miR-145–5p weakened OC cell growth, migration and invasion via targeting PSAT1. Importantly, further studies confirmed that circ_0015756 could indirectly regulate PSAT1 expression via sponging miR-145–5p. In all, circ_0015756 accelerated OC tumorigenesis through regulating miR-145–5p/PSAT1 axis, providing a new therapeutic target for OC.  相似文献

Plexin-B1, the receptor for Sema4D, has been reported to trigger multiple and sometimes opposing cellular responses in various types of tumor cells. It has been implicated in the regulation of tumor-cell survival, proliferation, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. However, the plexin-B1 gene expression and its regulatory mechanism in cervical cancer remain unclear. The present study shows that plexin-B1 is over-expressed in cervical tumor tissues compared to normal cervical tissues by immunohistochemistry, Western blotting and quantitative RT-PCR. The expression of plexin-B1 is significantly associated with cervical tumor metastasis and invasion according to the analysis of the clinicopathologic data. Plexin-B1 also promotes proliferation, migration and invasion in human cervical cancer HeLa cells. We also found that the plexin-B1 levels are inversely correlated with miR-214 amounts in both cervical cancer tissues and HeLa cells. And miR-214 expression level is also associated with metastasis and invasion of cervical tumor. Furthermore, we demonstrate that plexin-B1 is inhibited by miR-214 through a miR-214 binding site within the 3'UTR of plexin-B1 in HeLa cells. Ectopic expression of miR-214 could inhibit the proliferation capacity, migration and invasion ability of HeLa cells. Our findings suggest that plexin-B1, a target of miR-214, may function as an oncogene in human cervical cancer HeLa cells.  相似文献

Cervical cancer is a critically malignant tumor with the second mortality of females worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short but regulatory non-coding RNAs playing a pivotal role in many biological processes including tumorigenesis. However, the exact role of miR-140-3p in cervical cancer remains to be elucidated. Here we identified that miR-140-3p was significantly reduced in cervical cancer tissues by comprehensive analysis of TCGA data, hinting that higher expression level of miR-140-3p predicted a good clinical prognosis. Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) assay was performed to confirm the negative correlation between miR-140-3p expression level and human cervical cancer tissues as well as various cervical cancer cell lines. To clarify the certain role of miR-140-3p, forced expression by microRNA mimics was applied in Caski and C33A cells, showing that miR-140-3p overexpression significantly impeded the proliferation of cervical cancer cells by cell count kit (CCK-8) assay. Western blot analysis of cell cycle-related proteins Cyclin A, Cyclin B1 and Cyclin D1 have further confirmed the cell cycle arrest was induced by the ectopic expression of miR-140-3p. Annexin-V based FACS analysis also found the simultaneous appearance of early apoptotic cell population in miR-140-3p overexpression cells. The protein level of BCL-2 was attenuated in accompany with elevated Bax and Cleaved caspase-3 protein, indicating miR-140-3p overexpression induced early apoptosis. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that miR-140-3p could target the 3′UTR of RRM2 which has been proved to be highly involved in the onset of cancer. Furthermore, upregulation of miR-140-3p and RRM2 failed to inhibit the proliferation of human cervical cancer cells, revealing that RRM2 served as the target downstream gene of miR-140-3p abolishing its ability as a tumor suppressor. Overall, we figured out the new role of miR-140-3p in cervical cancer and concluded that miR-140-3p was a candidate of cancer control in preclinical.  相似文献

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a major event that drives cancer progression. Here we aim to investigate the role of microRNA, miR-145, in regulating EMT of the highly invasive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis indicated that miR-145 was downregulated in cancer tissue compared with that in adjacent normal tissue. NSCLC cell lines, namely H1299, PC7, and SPCA-1, also demonstrated miR-145 downregulation, which is correlated well with their invasive ability, assessed by the Matrigel invasion assay. miR-145 overexpression resulted in downregulation of N-cadherin, and downregulation of vimentin and E-cadherin, suggesting a decreased EMT activity. TargetScan analysis predicted that a binding site exists between miR-145 and an oncogene, ZEB2, which was verified using the dual-luciferase assay. Alteration of miR-145 expression also induced inverse effects on ZEB2 expression, and a negative correlation exists between ZEB2 and miR-145 in human tissues. ZEB2 and miR-145 also exerted antagonizing effects on the invasion of NSCLC cells. Therefore, miR-145 is an important molecule in NSCLC that regulates cancer EMT through targeting ZEB2.  相似文献

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the leading pathologic type in China. miR-145 has been reported to be downregulated in multiple tumors. This study was aimed to investigate the role of miR-145 in ESCC. miR-145 expression was investigated in 65 ESCC samples as well as four ESCC cell lines by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Targetscan 6.2 website ( http://www.targetscan.org/ ) was used to predict the targets of miR-145. Expression of phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) messenger RNA and protein was detected by qRT-PCR or Western blot. MTT and wound healing assay were conducted to explore the effects of miR-145 on the proliferation and migration of ESCC cell lines, respectively. miR-145 was significantly decreased in ESCC tissues. An inverse correlation between miR-145 and invasion depth and TNM stage were observed. PLCE1 was a direct target of miR-145, and the expression of PLCE1 was inversely correlated with miR-145 expression in ESCC tissues. In addition, overexpression of miR-145 suppressed cell proliferation and migration in ESCC cells. The enforced expression of PLCE1 partially reversed the suppressive effect of miR-145. These results prove that miR-145 may perform as a tumor suppressor in ESCC by targeting PLCE1.  相似文献

已有研究表明, miR-145在多种肿瘤中低表达, 并与细胞增殖和转移相关。文章通过生物信息学分析并结合体外实验鉴定, 发现DAB2(Disabled homolog 2)为miR-145在肿瘤转移过程中累及的新靶点。DAB2一直被认为是一个重要的抑癌基因, 在多种肿瘤标本中表达低下。然而, 研究发现, 在具高侵袭能力的前列腺癌细胞株PC3中DAB2基因却呈较高水平表达。另外, 外源表达miR-145能显著下调 DAB2表达水平, 并抑制PC3细胞的迁移和侵袭能力, 且这种miR-145诱导的PC3细胞功能缺陷能被DAB2过表达修复。上述结果表明, miR-145能通过靶向调控DAB2而影响高侵袭前列腺癌细胞的迁移和侵袭能力。  相似文献

目的:观察前列腺癌组织及不同前列腺癌细胞系中miR-182的表达,并探讨下调其表达对前列腺癌细胞增殖和凋亡的影响及机制。方法:采用实时荧光定量PCR(q RT-PCR)检测30例前列腺癌组织和30例相应的癌旁组织以及前列腺正常上皮RWPE-1细胞、前列腺癌PC-3、LNCa P和DU145细胞中miR-182的表达,进一步采用Lipfectamine 2000脂质体转染miRNA-182 inhibitor和阴性对照miRNA于PC-3细胞后,通过噻唑蓝(MTT)比色法检测细胞增殖情况,流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率,免疫印迹(Western blot)法检测转录因子FOXO1、血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)和抑癌基因p53蛋白的表达。结果:miR-182在前列腺癌组织中的表达明显高于癌旁组织(P0.05);miR-182在前列腺癌细胞系PC-3、LNCa P和DU145中的表达均高于前列腺正常上皮细胞RWPE-1(P0.05),其中PC-3细胞中miR-182表达水平最高。转染miRNA-182 inhibitor至PC-3细胞成功下调miR-182表达后,细胞的增殖能力明显受到抑制,细胞凋亡能力明显增强,FOXO1表达水平显著升高,VEGF和p53的表达明显降低,差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:miR-182在前列腺癌组织及细胞中呈高表达,下调miR-182的表达可能通过增加FOXO1的表达并减少VEGF和p53的表达,抑制前列腺癌细胞增殖并诱导细胞凋亡。  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

The tumour-suppressive role of LINC00472 has been extensively reported in various human cancers such as lung, colon and ovarian cancers, yet its function in pancreatic cancer remains unidentified. Here, the current research aimed to explore the role and regulatory axis mediated by LINC00472 in the progression of pancreatic cancer. RT-qPCR was adopted to determine LINC00472 expression in the harvested pancreatic cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were performed to examine the effects of LINC00472 on proliferation and apoptosis in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo. Immunoblotting was performed to detect the expression of several proliferation and apoptosis-related proteins. Bioinformatic analysis, dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down were conducted to profile the relationships between LINC00472 and miR-23a-3p, between miR-23a-3p and FOXO3 and between FOXO3 and BID. The LINC00472 expression was down-regulated by ZEB1 in the pancreatic cancer cells and tissues. LINC00472 could competitively bind to miR-23a-3p to enhance the expression of FOXO3, which consequently could promote the BID expression, thereby suppressing proliferation and promoting the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Meanwhile, the inhibitory role of LINC00472 in tumorigenesis was validated in vivo, and the LINC00472-mediated miR-23a-3p/FOXO3/BID axis was also demonstrated in the nude mouse tumour formation model. The study substantiated the antitumour activity of LINC00472 in pancreatic cancer and proposed a regulatory axis in which LINC00472 competitively binds to miR-23a-3p to enhance the FOXO3 expression and promote BID expression. Consequently, these findings provide theoretical basis for developing potential targets for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.  相似文献

Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women worldwide. However, the underlying mechanism of occurrence and development of cervical cancer is obscure. In this study, we observed that miR-30e was downregulated in clinical cervical cancer tissues and cervical cancer cells. Next, overexpression of miR-30e reduced the cervical cancer cell growth through MTT, colony formation, EdU, and Transwell assay in SiHa and Caski cells. Subsequently, UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine: polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 7 (GALNT7) was identified as a potential miR-30e target by bioinformatics analysis. Moreover, we showed that miR-30e was able to bind to the 3′UTR of GALNT7 by luciferase reporter assay. In addition, the mRNA and protein levels of GALNT7 in cervical cancer cells were downregulated by miR-30e. And we validated that downregulation of GALNT7 repressed the proliferation of SiHa and Caski cells by MTT, colony formation, and Transwell assay. We identified that the restoration of GALNT7 expression was able to counteract the effect of miR-30e on cell proliferation of cervical cancer cells. Furthermore, we found that the expression levels of GALNT7 were frequently upregulated and negatively correlative to those of miR-30e in cervical cancer tissues. In addition, we validated that restoration of GALNT7 rescued the miR-30e–suppressed growth of cervical cancer xenografts in vivo. In conclusion, the current results suggest that miR-30e may function as tumor suppressors in cervical cancer through downregulation of GALNT7. Both miR-30e and its novel target, GALNT7, may play an important role in the process of cervical cancer.  相似文献

Previous studies have reported that microRNAs function as key regulators in tumor development and progression. This study aims to investigate the functional effects of miR-503 expression in cervical cancer (CC) progression. We detected the expression of miR-503 in CC tissues and cell lines using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Synthesized miR-503 mimics or inhibitors were used to upregulate or downregulate the expression of miR-503 in HeLa or SiHa cells. Cell Counting Kit-8 and colony formation assay were used to detect the ability of cell proliferation. Furthermore, luciferase assay and Western blot were applied to confirm the target of miR-503 in CC cells. Here, we demonstrated that miR-503 expression was significantly downregulated in CC tissues, compared with adjacent normal tissues. miR-503 expression was significantly associated with tumor size and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage. Furthermore, increasing miR-503 expression in CC cells dramatically inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation ability of CC. However, reducing miR-503 had reverse effects on these malignant behaviors. Moreover, we demonstrated that miR-503 inhibited cell proliferation by targeting AKT2 3′-untranslated region and affected its expression. Overexpression of AKT2 rescued the effects induced by miR-503 on cell proliferation. Therefore, our results indicated that miR-503 may serve as a tumor suppressor in CC and provide a potential value for CC treatment.  相似文献

NEAT1 is an important tumor oncogenic gene in various tumors. Nevertheless, its involvement remains poorly studied in cervical cancer. Our study explored the functional mechanism of NEAT1 in cervical cancer. NEAT1 level in several cervical cancer cells was quantified and we found NEAT1 was greatly upregulated in vitro. NEAT1 knockdown inhibited cervical cancer development through repressing cell proliferation, colony formation, capacity of migration, and invasion and also inducing the apoptosis. For another, microRNA (miR)-133a was downregulated in cervical cancer cells and NEAT1 negatively modulated miR-133a expression. Subsequently, we validated that miR-133a functioned as a potential target of NEAT1. Meanwhile, SOX4 is abnormally expressed in various cancers. SOX4 was able to act as a downstream target of miR-133a and silencing of SOX4 can restrain cervical cancer progression. In addition, in vivo assays were conducted to prove the role of NEAT1/miR-133a/SOX4 axis in cervical cancer. These findings implied that NEAT1 served as a competing endogenous RNA to sponge miR-133a and regulate SOX4 in cervical cancer pathogenesis. To sum up, it was implied that NEAT1/miR-133a/SOX4 axis was involved in cervical cancer development.  相似文献
