FOXM1 is a well-established oncogenic factor that has been reported to be involved in multiple biological processes including cell proliferation, growth, angiogenesis, migration and invasion. It can also be regulated by miRNAs. In this study, we reported that FOXM1 is directly targeted by miR-342-3p, which is down-regulated along with its host gene, EVL, in human cervical cancer tissues compared to the adjacent normal tissues. Functional studies suggested that the overexpression of miR-342-3p inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion in cervical cell lines. FOXM1 is upregulated and negatively correlates with miR-342-3p in cervical cancer tissues, and the overexpression of FOXM1 rescues the phenotype changes induced by the overexpression of miR-342-3p.  相似文献

Cervical cancer is the most common gynaecological malignancy, with a high incidence rate and mortality rate in middle-aged women. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) have been implicated in the initiation and subsequent development of cancer, along with the involvement of extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediating intracellular communication by delivering microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs). This study is aimed at investigating the physiological mechanisms by which EVs-encapsulated miR-144-3p derived from hBMSCs might mediate the progression of cervical cancer. The expression profiles of centrosomal protein, 55 Kd (CEP55) and miR-144-3p in cervical cancer cell lines and tissues, were quantified by RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis. The binding affinity between miR-144-3p and CEP55 was identified using in silico analysis and luciferase activity determination. Cervical cancer cells were co-cultured with EVs derived from hBMSCs that were treated with either miR-144-3p mimic or miR-144-3p inhibitor. Cervical cancer cell proliferation, invasion, migration and apoptosis were detected in vitro. The effects of hBMSCs-miR-144-3p on tumour growth were also investigated in vivo. miR-144-3p was down-regulated, whereas CEP55 was up-regulated in cervical cancer cell lines and tissues. CEP55 was targeted by miR-144-3p, which suppressed cervical cancer cell proliferation, invasion and migration and promoted apoptosis via CEP55. Furthermore, similar results were obtained by hBMSCs-derived EVs carrying miR-144-3p. In vivo assays confirmed the tumour-suppressive effects of miR-144-3p in hBMSCs-derived EVs on cervical cancer. Collectively, hBMSCs-derived EVs-loaded miR-144-3p impedes the development and progression of cervical cancer through target inhibition of CEP55, therefore providing us with a potential therapeutic target for treating cervical cancer.  相似文献

A significant role for micro (mi)RNA in the regulation of gene expression in tumours has been recently established. In order to further understand how miRNA expression may contribute to prostate tumour growth and progression, we evaluated expression of miRNA in two invasive prostate tumour lines, PC3 and DU145, and compared it to that in normal prostate epithelial cells. Although a number of miRNAs were differentially expressed, we focused our analysis on miR-105, a novel miRNA not previously linked to prostate cancer. miR-105 levels were significantly decreased in both tumour cell lines in comparison to normal prostate epithelial cells. To determine its potential role in prostate cancer pathogenesis, we overexpressed miR-105 in both PC3 and DU145 cells and determined its effect on various tumourigenic properties. miR-105 overexpression inhibited tumour cell proliferation, tumour growth in anchorage-independent three-dimensional conditions and tumour invasion in vitro, properties of highly aggressive tumour cells. Of potential clinical significance, miR-105 overexpression inhibited tumour growth in vivo in xenograft models using these cell lines. We further identified CDK6 as a putative target of miR-105 which is likely a main contributor to the inhibition of tumour cell growth observed in our assays. Our results suggest that miR-105 inhibits tumour cell proliferation and hence may represent a novel therapeutically relevant cellular target to inhibit tumour growth or a marker of aggressive tumours in prostate cancer patients.  相似文献

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. We aimed to investigate the role of LINC00184 in NSCLC. Migration, proliferation and invasion of NSCLC cells were analysed using the wound healing assay, cell counting kit-8 assay and transwell assay, respectively. Apoptosis and cell cycle were assessed using flow cytometry. Online bioinformatics tools were utilized to predict downstream microRNAs (miRNA) or genes related to LINC00184 expression. The RNA pull-down experiment and luciferase reporter assay were performed to verify the predictions thereof. LINC00184, miR-524-5p, and high mobility group 2 protein (HMGB2) expression levels in NSCLC tissues and cell lines were detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. An NSCLC mouse model was constructed for in vivo experiments. LINC00184 overexpression was observed in NSCLC tissues and cell lines and was found to be correlated with poor prognosis. LINC00184 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion, induced cell cycle arrest and accelerated apoptosis in NSCLC cell lines. LINC00184 suppressed tumour growth and proliferation in NSCLC mouse models and directly targeted the miR-524-5p/HMGB2 axis. Moreover, the expression levels of LINC00184 and HMGB2 were negatively correlated with miR-524-5p expression, whereas LINC00184 expression was positively correlated with HMGB2 expression. LINC00184 affected the cell cycle, proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion in NSCLC via regulation of the miR-524-5p/HMGB2 axis.  相似文献

Background/aim: MiR-125b plays an important role in breast cancer. The current study was to explore the expression and function of miR-125b in triple negative breast cancer cells. Materials and methods: The expression of miR-125b in human TNBC samples and cell lines were examined by qRT-PCR. MTT, scratch assays and transwell assays were utilized to observe the proliferation, migration and invasion ability. MiR-125b’s target gene and downstream signaling pathways were investigated by Luciferase Reporter Assays, qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence assays and western bolt. Results: MiR-125b was highly expressed in human TNBC tissues and cell lines. Inhibiting miR-125b expression suppressed the proliferation, cell migration and invasion. The three-prime untranslated region (3´-UTR) of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) mRNA contains miR-125b binding sites, and inhibiting miR-125b expression suppressed the activity of the intracellular Wnt/β-catenin pathways and EMT. Conclusion: Inhibiting miR-125b regulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and EMT to suppress the proliferation and migration of MDA-MB-468 TNBC cells.  相似文献

MiR-217 can function as an oncogene or a tumour suppressor gene depending on cell type. However, the function of miR-217 in lung cancer remains unclear to date. This study aims to evaluate the function of miR-217 in lung cancer and investigate its effect on the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to cisplatin. The expression of miR-217 was detected in 100 patients by real-time PCR. The effects of miR-217 overexpression on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of SPC-A-1 and A549 cells were investigated. The target gene of miR-217 was predicted by Targetscan online software, screened by dual luciferase reporter gene assay and demonstrated by Western blot. Finally, the effects of miR-217 up-regulation on the sensitivity of A549 cells to cisplatin were determined. The expression of miR-217 was significantly lower in lung cancer tissues than in noncancerous tissues (p < 0.001). The overexpression of miR-217 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion as well as promoted the apoptosis of lung cancer cells by targeting KRAS. The up-regulation of miR-217 enhanced the sensitivity of SPC-A-1 and A549 cells to cisplatin. In conclusion, miR-217 suppresses tumour development in lung cancer by targeting KRAS and enhances cell sensitivity to cisplatin. Our results encourage researchers to use cisplatin in combination with miR-217 to treat lung cancer. This regime might lead to low-dose cisplatin application and cisplatin side-effect reduction.  相似文献

Cervical cancer is a serious threat to women’s health and is the third most common malignancy in women worldwide. Recent studies indicate that the long non-coding RNA CCAT1 plays a role in the malignant behavior of many tumors. However, the role of CCAT1 in cervical cancer is still unknown. Our aim is to evaluate the expression and investigate the regulatory role and potential mechanism of CCAT1 in cervical cancer. CCAT1 expression was measured by qRT-PCR. In addition, CCK-8 assays, colony formation assays, qRT-PCR assays, Transwell assays and xenograft experiments were performed to determine the role of CCAT1 in the proliferation and invasion in cervical cancer cells. The expression of CCAT1 in the cervical cancer tissues was higher than in the adjacent normal tissues. Overexpressing CCAT1 promoted cervical cancer cell proliferation, colony formation, and invasion in vitro. Elevated CCAT1 suppressed miR-181a expression, which was accompanied by an increased expression of MMP14 and HB-EGF. In contrast, knocking down CCAT1 resulted in increased expression of miR-181a, along with decreased expression of MMP14 and HB-EGF. Thus, CCAT1 is a key oncogenic lncRNA associated with cervical cancer and plays a role in promoting cervical cancer cell proliferation and invasion by regulating the miR-181a-5p/MMP14 axis.  相似文献

Emerging studies have revealed the critical role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) development and progression. Till now, the roles and potential mechanisms regarding FEZF1 antisense RNA 1 (FEZF1-AS1) within ovarian cancer (OC) remain unclear. The objective of this study was to uncover the biological function and the underlying mechanism of LncRNA FEZF1-AS1 in OC progression. FEZF1-AS1 expression levels were studied in cell lines and tissues of human ovarian cancer. In vitro studies were performed to evaluate the impact of FEZF1-AS1 knock-down on the proliferation, invasion, migration and apoptosis of OC cells. Interactions of FEZF1-AS1 and its target genes were identified by luciferase reporter assays. Our data showed overexpression of FEZF1-AS1 in OC cell lines and tissues. Cell migration, proliferation, invasion, wound healing and colony formation were suppressed by silencing of FEZF1-AS1. In contrast, cell apoptosis was promoted by FEZF1-AS1 knock-down in vitro. Furthermore, online bioinformatics analysis and tools suggested that FEZF1-AS1 directly bound to miR-130a-5p and suppressed its expression. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of miR-130a-5p on the OC cell growth were reversed by FEZF1-AS1 overexpression, which was associated with the increase in SOX4 expression. In conclusion, our results revealed that FEZF1-AS1 promoted the metastasis and proliferation of OC cells by targeting miR-130a-5p and its downstream SOX4 expression.  相似文献

Growing evidence has shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in cervical cancer. Dy000sregulation of lncRNA SOX21 antisense RNA 1 (SOX21-AS1) has been reported in several tumors. However, its expression pattern and potential biological function in cervical cancer (CC) have not been investigated. In this study, we first reported that SOX21-AS1 expression was significantly upregulated in both CC tissues and cell lines. High expression of SOX21-AS1 was found to be significantly correlated with Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, lymph node metastasis and depth of cervical invasion. Further clinical assay confirmed that high SOX21-AS1 expression was associated with shorter overall survival and could be used as a potential prognostic biomarker for CC patients. Functional investigation showed that knockdown of SOX21-AS1 suppressed CC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as epithelial to mesenchymal transition progress. Furthermore, our data showed that microRNA-7 (miR-7) interacted with SOX21-AS1 by directly targeting the miRNA-binding site in the SOX21-AS1 sequence, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction results showed overexpression of SOX21-AS1 decreased the levels of miR-7 in CC cells. Moreover, we confirmed that miR-7 directly targeted the 3′-untranslated region of voltage dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1). Final in vitro assay suggested that in CC cells with SOX21-AS1, VDAC1 overexpression resulted in an increase of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Overall, our findings illuminate how SOX21-AS1 formed a regulatory network to confer an oncogenic function in CC and SOX21-AS1 could be regarded as an efficient therapeutic target and potential biomarker for CC patients.  相似文献

MicroRNA 144 (miR-144), a small non-coding RNA, is frequently dysregulated in human several tumour progression, but its role and the underlying mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is poorly investigated. In the present study, the expression of miR-144 was firstly analysed in datasets derived from GSE21362 and TCGA, and then detected in HCC tissues and cell lines by quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. MiR-144 was shown to be significantly down-regulated in HCC tissues and cell lines. Subsequently, overexpression of miR-144 was transfected into HCC cell lines so as to investigate its biological function, including MTT, colony formation, and transwell assays. Gain of function assay revealed miR-144 remarkably inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion. In addition, bioinformatical analysis and luciferase reporter assay identified ZFX as a novel target of miR-144 in HCC cells, as confirmed by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Furthermore, ZFX was found to be significantly up-regulated using Oncomine database analysis. Loss of function assay further indicated knockdown of ZFX had similar effects of miR-144-mediated HCC cell proliferation and invasion. Therefore, miR-144 has been demonstrated to act as a tumour suppressor in HCC cell growth and motility by directly targeting ZFX, which implicates its potential applications in the development of HCC treatment.  相似文献

Pancreatic cancer (PAAD) is a highly malignant tumour characterized of high mortality and poor prognosis. Huntingtin-interacting protein 1-related (HIP1R) has been recognized as a tumour suppressor in gastric cancer, while its biological function in PAAD remains to be elucidated. In this study, we reported the downregulation of HIP1R in PAAD tissues and cell lines, and the overexpression of HIP1R suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of PAAD cells, while silencing HIP1R showed the opposite effects. DNA methylation analysis revealed that the promoter region of HIP1R was heavily methylated in PAAD cell lines when compared to the normal pancreatic duct epithelial cells. A DNA methylation inhibitor 5-AZA increased the expression of HIP1R in PAAD cells. 5-AZA treatment also inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced apoptosis in PAAD cell lines, which could be attenuated by HIP1R silencing. We further demonstrated that HIP1R was negatively regulated by miR-92a-3p, which modulates the malignant phenotype of PAAD cells in vitro and the tumorigenesis in vivo. The miR-92a-3p/HIP1R axis could regulate PI3K/AKT pathway in PAAD cells. Taken together, our data suggest that targeting DNA methylation and miR-92a-3p-mediated repression of HIP1R could serve as novel therapeutic strategies for PAAD treatment.  相似文献

Chemotherapeutic insensitivity remains a major obstacle to treating osteosarcoma effectively. Recently, increasing evidence has suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in drug resistance. However, the effect of miR-138 on cisplatin chemoresistance in osteosarcoma has not been reported. We used real-time PCR to detect the expression of mature miR-138 in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines. Cell proliferation, invasion, and migration assays were used to observe changes to the osteosarcoma malignant phenotype. MiR-138 was downregulated in osteosarcoma tissues and cell lines, and miR-138 overexpression negatively regulated osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. We also verified that EZH2 is a direct target of miR-138. Furthermore, enhancing EZH2 expression reduced the inhibitory effects of miR-138 on osteosarcoma. Proliferation, apoptosis assays and caspase-3 activity assay confirmed that elevated miR-138 expression enhanced osteosarcoma cell chemosensitivity to cisplatin by targeting EZH2. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that miR-138 acts as a tumor suppressor by enhancing osteosarcoma cell chemosensitivity and supports its potential application for treating osteosarcoma in the future.  相似文献
