Lung carcinoma is the most common type of malignant tumors globally, and its molecular mechanisms remained unclear. With the aim to investigate the effects of microRNA (miR)-377-5p on the cell development, invasion, metastasis, and cycle of lung carcinoma, this study was performed. We evaluated miR-377-5p expression levels in lung cancer tissues and cell models. Cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion abilities, and cell cycle distribution were measured using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, crystal violet, transwell, and flow cytometry assay. Furthermore, expression levels of protein kinase B α subunit (AKT1) and proteins related to cell cycle and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were assessed using Western blot analysis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. These results suggested that miR-377-5p was downregulated in vivo and in cell models, and miR-377-5p overexpression inhibited cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, and induced cell-cycle arrest. In addition, as a target of miR-377-5p, AKT1 alleviated the decreases of cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, the S-phase cells, the expression of cyclin D1, fibronectin, and vimentin, as well as the increases of the G0/G1-phase cells, the expression of Foxo1, p27 kip1, p21 Cip1 and E-cadherin when miR-377-5p overexpressed. In conclusion, miR-377-5p inhibited cell development and regulated cell cycle distribution and EMT by targeting AKT1, which provided a theoretical basis for further study of lung carcinoma therapeutics.  相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the functional role of microRNA (miR)-630 in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of gastric cancer (GC) cells, as well as the regulatory mechanism. Cells of human GC cell line SGC 7901 were transfected with miR-630 mimic or miR-630 inhibitor. The transfection efficiency was confirmed by qRT-PCR. Cell migration and invasion were determined by Transwell assay. Protein expression of E-cadherin, vimentin, and Forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1) was tested by Western blot. Moreover, the expression of FoxM1 was elevated or suppressed, and then the effects of miR-630 abnormal expression on EMT and properties of migration and invasion were examined again, as well as protein expression of Ras/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT related factors. The results showed that (i) the EMT and properties of migration and invasion were statistically decreased by overexpression of miR-630 compared to the control group but markedly increased by suppression of miR-630. However, (ii) abnormal expression of FoxM1 reversed these effects in GC cells. Moreover, (iii) expression of GTP-Rac1, p-PI3K, and p-AKT was decreased by miR-630 overexpression but increased by FoxM1 overexpression. (iv) The decreased levels of GTP-Rac1, p-PI3K, and p-AKT induced by miR-630 overexpression were dramatically elevated by simultaneous overexpression of FoxM1. In conclusion, our results suggest that miR-630 might be a tumor suppressor in GC cells. MiR-630 suppresses EMT by regulating FoxM1 in GC cells, supposedly via inactivation of the Ras/PI3K/AKT pathway.  相似文献

NRP1 as multifunctional non-tyrosine-kinase receptors play critical roles in tumor progression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an important class of pervasive genes that are involved in a variety of biological functions, particularly cancer. It remains unclear whether miRNAs can regulate the expression of NRP1. The goal of this study was to identify miRNAs that could inhibit the growth, invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer by targeting NRP1 expression. We found that miR-338 expression was reduced in gastric cancer cell lines and in gastric cancer tissues. Moreover, we found that miR-338 inhibited gastric cancer cell migration, invasion, proliferation and promoted apoptosis by targeting NRP1 expression. As an upstream regulator of NRP1, miR-338 directly targets NRP1. The forced expression of miR-338 inhibited the phosphorylation of Erk1/2, P38 MAPK and Akt; however, the expression of phosphorylated Erk1/2, P38 MAPK and Akt was restored by the overexpression of NRP1. In AGS cells infected with miR-338 or transfected with SiNRP1, the protein levels of fibronectin, vimentin, N-cadherin and SNAIL were decreased, but the expression of E-cadherin was increased. The expression of mesenchymal markers in miR-338-expressing cells was restored to normal levels by the restoration of NRP1 expression. In vivo, miR-338 also decreased tumor growth and suppressed D-MVA by targeting NRP1. Therefore, we conclude that miR-338 acts as a novel tumor suppressor gene in gastric cancer. miR-338 can decrease migratory, invasive, proliferative and apoptotic behaviors, as well as gastric cancer EMT, by attenuating the expression of NRP1.  相似文献

The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a critical step for pancreatic cancer cells as an entry of metastatic disease. Wide variety of cytokines and signaling pathways are involved in this complex process while the entire picture is still cryptic. Recently, miRNA was found to regulate cellular function including EMT by targeting multiple mRNAs. We conducted comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression profiles in invasive ductal adenocarcinoma (IDA), intraductal papillary mucinous adenoma, intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma, and human pancreatic cancer cell line to elucidate essential miRNAs which regulate invasive growth of pancreatic cancer cells. Along with higher expression of miR-21 which has been shown to be highly expressed in IDA, reduced expression of miR-126 in IDA and pancreatic cancer cell line was detected. The miR-126 was found to target ADAM9 (disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 9) which is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer. The direct interaction between miR-126 and ADAM9 mRNA was confirmed by 3' untranslated region assay. Reexpression of miR-126 and siRNA-based knockdown of ADAM9 in pancreatic cancer cells resulted in reduced cellular migration, invasion, and induction of epithelial marker E-cadherin. We showed for the first time that the miR-126/ADAM9 axis plays essential role in the inhibition of invasive growth of pancreatic cancer cells.  相似文献

Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease with a poor prognosis. Recently, miRNAs have been reported to be abnormally expressed in several cancers and play a role in cancer development and progression. However, the role of miRNA in cancer stem cells remains unclear. Therefore, our aim was to investigate the role of miRNA in the CD133+ pancreatic cancer cell line Capan-1M9 because CD133 is a putative marker of pancreatic cancer stem cells. Using miRNA microarray, we found that the expression level of the miR-30 family decreased in CD133 genetic knockdown shCD133 Capan-1M9 cells. We focused on miR-30a, -30b, and -30c in the miR-30 family and created pancreatic cancer cell sublines, each transfected with these miRNAs. High expression of miR-30a, -30b, or -30c had no effect on cell proliferation and sphere forming. In contrast, these sublines were resistant to gemcitabine, which is a standard anticancer drug for pancreatic cancer, and in addition, promoted migration and invasion. Moreover, mesenchymal markers were up-regulated by these miRNAs, suggesting that mesenchymal phenotype is associated with an increase in migration and invasion. Thus, our study demonstrated that high expression of the miR-30 family modulated by CD133 promotes migratory and invasive abilities in CD133+ pancreatic cancer cells. These findings suggest that targeted therapies to the miR-30 family contribute to the development of novel therapies for CD133+ pancreatic cancer stem cells.  相似文献

FMNL2 is a member of diaphanous-related formins that control actin-dependent processes such as cell motility and invasion. Its overexpression in metastatic cell lines and tissues of colorectal carcinoma has been associated with aggressive tumor development in our previous study. But its specific role in cancer is largely unknown. Here we report that FMNL2 is involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) maintenance in human colorectal carcinoma cells. A positive correlation between FMNL2 and vimentin expression and an inverse correlation between FMNL2 and E-cadherin expression were found in colorectal carcinoma cell lines and cancer tissues. Specific knockdown of FMNL2 led to an epithelial-state transition, confirmed by the cobblestone-like phenotype, upregulation of E-cadherin, α-catenin, and γ-catenin, and downregulation of vimentin, snail, slug. Loss of FMNL2 expression lowered the ability of TGF-β to induce cell invasion and EMT, as shown by morphology and the expression levels. Upregulation of vimentin, slug, snail, downregulation of E-cadherin and activation of receptor-Smad3 phosphorylation were observed in M5 and MDCK cells induced by TGF-β, whereas altered expression of these markers was not obvious in FMNL2-depleting M5 cells. High levels of activation of p-MAPK and p-MEK, but not p-PI3K and p-AKT, were observed in SW480/FMNL2+ cells compared with control cells. Treatment with U0126 could abrogate the activation of p-MAPK and p-MEK, whereas LY294002 treatment had no effect on the PI3K/AKT pathway. In conclusion, these findings identify a novel EMT and tumor promoting function for FMNL2, which is involved in TGF-β-induced EMT and colorectal carcinoma cell invasion via Smad3 effectors, or in collaboration with MAPK/MEK pathway.  相似文献

Lung cancer is a highly malignant carcinoma, and most deaths of lung cancer are caused by metastasis. The alterations associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) may be related to the cancer cell metastasis. Nevertheless, the mechanism of lung cancer metastasis remains unclear. We conducted a study in vitro to investigate whether transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) could induce changes of, such as cell morphology, expression of relative protein markers, and cellular motile and invasive activities. In this research, the changes of cell morphology were first investigated under a phase contrast microscope, then western blotting was employed to detect the expression of E-cadherin, vimentin, and fibronectin, and finally cell motility and invasion were evaluated by cell wound-healing as well as invasion assays. The data indicated that human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines, A-549 and PC-9 cells of epithelial cell characteristics, were induced to undergo EMT by TGF-β1. Following TGF-β1 treatment, cells showed dramatic morphological changes assessed by phase contrast microscopy, accompanied by decreased epithelial marker E-cadherin and increased mesenchymal markers vimentin and fibronectin. More importantly, cell motility and invasion were also enhanced in the EMT process. These results indicated that TGF-β1 may promote lung adenocarcinoma invasion and metastasis via the mechanism of EMT.  相似文献

MiRNAs play important roles in tumorigenesis. This study focused on exploring the effects and regulation mechanism of miRNA-137 on the biological behaviors of gastric cancer. Total RNA was extracted from tissues of 100 patients with gastric cancer and from four gastric cancer cell lines. Expression of miR-137 was detected by real-time PCR from 100 patients. The effects of miR-137 overexpression on gastric cancer cells’ proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion ability were investigated in vitro and in vivo. The target gene of miR-137 was predicted by Targetscan on line software, screened by dual luciferase reporter gene assay and demonstrated by western blot. As a result, the expression of miR-137 was significant reduced in gastric cancer cell line HGC-27, HGC-803, SGC-7901 and MKN-45 as well as in gastric cancer tissues compared with GES-1 cell or matched adjacent non-neoplastic tissues (p<0.001). The re-introduction of miR-137 into gastric cancer cells was able to inhibit cell proliferation, migration and invasion. The in vivo experiments demonstrated that the miR-137 overexpression can reduce the gastric cancer cell proliferation and metastasis. Bioinformatic and western blot analysis indicated that the miR-137 acted as tumor suppressor roles on gastric cancer cells through targeting AKT2 and further affecting the Bad and GSK-3β. In conclusion, the miR-137 which is frequently down-regulated in gastric cancer is potentially involved in gastric cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis by regulating AKT2 related signal pathways.  相似文献
