Dysregulated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) remains to be explored in tumorigenesis. LncRNA HOXC13 antisense RNA (HOXC13-AS) has been found as an oncogene in many cancers; however, the role of HOXC13-AS in breast cancer still elusive. In this study, the HOXC13-AS levels and its role in cell proliferation was first measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and colony formation assay. It showed that HOXC13-AS was increased in breast cancer tissues compared with the adjacent normal tissues and upregulated HOXC13-AS promoted the growth of breast cancer cells. Then, we found that the miR-497-5p levels were downregulated in cancer tissues compared with the adjacent tissues and miR-497-5p suppressed breast cancer cell proliferation. Further study showed that HOXC13-AS could function as a “sponge” for miR-497-5p then suppress miR-497-5p expression. Moreover, we next identified that Phosphatase and Tensin homolog (PTEN) is the target of miR-497-5p. Overexpression of miR-497-5p by chemical mimics decreased the expression of PTEN, while downregulation of miR-497-5p by HOXC13-AS rescued the expression of PTEN. Finally, we showed that HOXC13-AS promoted the proliferation of breast cancer cells and tumor growth through miR-497-5p/PTEN axis in vitro and in vivo. Hence, we conclude that HOXC13-AS, which is significantly upregulated in breast cancers, promoted cell proliferation through the suppressed miR-497-5p and further upregulated PTEN.  相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is most prevalent tumor in liver and one of the most fatal cancers in the world. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been accepted as important regulators in carcinomas. But there are still many lncRNAs including DLGAP1-AS1 unannotated in HCC. First of all, GEPIA suggested that DLGAP1-AS1 presented high expression in HCC tissue samples relative to the normal tissues. Besides, overexpression of DLGAP1-AS1 was also proved in HCC cell lines. Moreover, DLGAP1-AS1 knockdown efficiently suppressed cell proliferation in HCC. Interestingly, miR-486-5p was predicted and validated to interact with DLGAP1-AS1, while the level of miR-486-5p was significantly increased In HCC after DLGAP1-AS1 knockdown. Moreover, we uncovered that ectopic expression of miR-486-5p induced suppression on HCC cell proliferation and that miR-486-5p inhibition offset the effect of DLGAP1-AS1 silence on HCC cell proliferation and apoptosis. Furthermore, H3F3B was identified as target of miR-486-5p and was therefore positively regulated by DLGAP1-AS1 in HCC. Of note, H3F3B upregulation partly revived the declined cell proliferative capacity in response to DLGAP1-AS1 knockdown. To conclude, DLGAP1-AS1 exerted its oncogenic role in HCC via miR-486-5p/H3F3B axis. Our new findings provided novel theoretical basis for discovery of therapeutic targets of HCC.  相似文献

Retinoblastoma is the most common malignancy in children's eyes with high incidence. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the progression of retinoblastoma. LncRNA FEZF1 antisense RNA 1 (FEZF1-AS1) has been found to stimulate retinoblastoma. However, the mechanism of FEZF1-AS1 underlying progression of retinoblastoma is still unclear. In current study, FEZF1-AS1 was up-regulated in retinoblastoma tissues and cells. FEZF1-AS1 overexpression enhanced retinoblastoma cell viability, promoted cell cycle, and inhibited apoptosis. Conversely, FEZF1-AS1 knockdown reduced cell viability, cycle, and elevated apoptosis. The interaction between FEZF1-AS1 and microRNA-363-3p (miR-363-3p) was confirmed. FEZF1-AS1 down-regulated miR-363-3p and up-regulated PAX6. PAX6 was a target gene of miR-363-3p. EZF1-AS1 promoted retinoblastoma cell viability and suppressed apoptosis via PAX6. Further, we demonstrated that FEZF1-AS1 contribute to tumor formation in vivo. In conclusion, FEZF1-AS1 elevated growth and inhibited apoptosis by regulating miR-363-3p/PAX6 in retinoblastoma, which provide a new target for retinoblastoma treatment.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) played an important role in tumorigenesis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we first demonstrated that lncRNA DLX6 antisense RNA 1 (DLX6-AS1) was upregulated in cancer tissues and cells lines compared with normal adjacent and cell line. Knock-down DLX6-AS1 by transfection with small interfering RNA (siRNA) suppressed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells. Cell cycle analysis showed that cells transfected with siRNA were arrested in G0/G1 phase. Then, we performed dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay to show that DLX6-AS1 could bind with miR-424-5p. And cotransfection inhibitor of miR-424-5p with siRNA of DLX6-AS1 could abolish the inhibitory effect of siRNA of DLX6-AS1 on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, we further demonstrated that the oncogene WEE1 G2 checkpoint kinase (WEE1) was the target of miR-424-5p and expression levels of WEE1 were positive correlation with that of DLX6-AS1. Taken together, these results suggested that upregulated DLX6-AS1 promoted cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC through increasing expression of WEE1 via targeting miR-424-5p.  相似文献

Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported as a new kind of controllers about cancer processes in biology. In spite of the dysregulation of lncRNAs in various kinds of cancers, only a little of the information was effective on the expression configuration and inner effects of lncRNAs in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This study valued the expression of lncRNA SOX21-AS1 and the biological role it played in TNBC. In our research, SOX21-AS1 had a high expression in TNBC cell lines. The functional experiments showed that knockdown of SOX21-AS1 obviously restrained cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition process and promoted cell apoptosis. Mechanistically, SOX21-AS1 was found to bind with miR-520a-5p. Besides, ORMDL3 was identified as a downstream target of miR-520a-5p, and the suppressed ORMDL3 expression induced by silenced SOX21-AS1 could be restored by miR-520a-5p inhibition. Further, data from rescue assays revealed that SOX21-AS1 could regulate the malignancy of TNBC via miR-520a-5p/ORMDL3 axis. All in all, we identified that SOX21-AS1 regulated the cellular process of TNBC cells via antagonizing miR-520a-5p availability to upregulate ORMDL3 expression.  相似文献

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in several malignances, involving nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), a heterogeneous disease. This study investigated mechanism of serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein 2-alternative splicing (SRRM2-AS) in NPC cell proliferation, differentiation, and angiogenesis. Initially, differentially expressed lncRNAs were screened out via microarray analysis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein positive rate and microvessel density (MVD) were determined in NPC and adjacent tissues. NPC CNE-2 cells were treated with a series of vector and small interfering RNA to explore the effect of SRRM2-AS in NPC. The target relationship between myosin light chain kinase (MYLK) and SRRM2-AS was verified. Levels of SRRM2-AS, MYLK, cGMP, PKG, VEGF, PCNA, Ki-67, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), and Caspase 3 were determined after transfection. Finally, the effect of SRRM2-AS on cell proliferation, colony formation, angiogenesis, cell cycle, and apoptosis in NPC was evaluated. SRRM2-AS was highly expressed and MYLK was poorly expressed in NPC tissues. VEGF protein positive rate and MVD were elevated in NPC tissues. MYLK was confirmed to be a target gene of SRRM2-AS. Silencing of SRRM2-AS elevated levels of MYLK, cGMP, PKG, Bax, and Caspase 3, but decreased levels of VEGF, PCNA, Ki-67, and Bcl-2. Especially, silencing of SRRM2-AS suppressed cell proliferation, colony formation and angiogenesis, blocked cell cycle, and enhanced cell apoptosis in NPC. Our results suggested that silencing of SRRM2-AS protected against angiogenesis of NPC cells by upregulating MYLK and activating the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, which provides a new target for NPC treatment.  相似文献

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to play critical roles in cancer progression. Recently, lncRNA MAGI2-AS3 has been revealed to be a tumor suppressor and inhibit cell growth by targeting the Fas/FasL signalling pathway in breast cancer. However, the role and underlying mechanism of MAGI2-AS3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain largely unknown. In the current study, we found that MAGI2-AS3 expression is downregulated in HCC tissues and closely associated with some clinical characteristics (tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage) and poor overall survival. Overexpression of MAGI2-AS3 inhibits HCC cell proliferation and migration in vitro, while impedes tumor growth in vivo accordantly. In addition, our data suggest that MAGI2-AS3 could function as an endogenous sponge of miR-374b-5p by directly binding to it and suppressing its expression. Furthermore, miR-374b-5p upregulation could restore the inhibitory effect of MAGI2-AS3 on HCC cells processes. Moreover, suppressor with morphogenetic effect on genitalia family member 1 (SMG1) is positively regulated by MAGI2-AS3 via absorbing miR-374b-5p in HCC cells. More important, SMG1 knockdown reverses the suppressive function of MAGI2-AS3 in HCC cell processes. Taken together, we reveal a functional MAGI2-AS3/miR-374b-5p/SMG1 axis that suppresses HCC progression, potently suggesting a new road for HCC treatment.  相似文献

Evidence, demonstrating long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) as critical players in cancer, remains to increase. lncRNA SBF2-AS1 was reported to be involved in several cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the role of SBF2-AS1 in colorectal cancer (CRC) is unknown. We showed lncRNA SBF2-AS1 expression was growing in CRC samples, especially in advanced cases. Accordingly, SBF2-AS1 possesses higher expression in CRC cell lines than in normal cell line. Moreover, SBF2-AS1 high expression indicated a low survival rate. Functionally, SBF2-AS1 knockdown suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells. In terms of mechanism, SBF2-AS1 upregulation restrained the activity of miR-619-5p and led to overexpression of HDAC3. Importantly, downregulation of miR-619-5p or HDAC3 overexpression reversed SBF2-AS1-silencing-caused suppression on proliferation and metastasis. Summarily, our findings elucidated a crucial role of SBF2-AS1 as a miR-619-5p sponge, shedding novel light on lncRNA-related prognostics.  相似文献

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) display essential roles in cancer progression. FLVCR1-AS1 is a rarely investigated lncRNAs involved in various human cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma and lung cancer. However, its function in glioma has not been clarified. In our study, we found that FLVCR1-AS1 was highly expressed in glioma tissues and cell lines. And upregulation of FLVCR1-AS1 predicted poor prognosis in patients with glioma. Moreover, FLVCR1-AS1 knockdown inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of glioma cells. Through bioinformatics analysis, we identified that FLVCR1-AS1 was a sponge for miR-4731-5p to upregulate E2F2 expression. Moreover, rescue assays indicated that FLVCR1-AS1 modulated E2F2 expression to participate in glioma progression. Altogether, our research demonstrates that the FLVCR1-AS1/miR-4731-5p/E2F2 axis is a novel signaling in glioma and may be a potential target for tumor therapy.  相似文献

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the major cancers affecting males with high mortality around the world. Recent studies have found that some long noncoding RNAs play a critical part in the cellular processes of PCa. In our study, aberrant expressed lymphoid enhancer-binding factor-1 antisense RNA 1 (LEF1-AS1), microRNA-330-5p (miR-330-5p), and lymphoid enhancer-binding factor-1 (LEF1) were screened out from a microarray database, the role of the novel noncoding RNA regulatory circuitry in the initiation and development of PCa was investigated. LEF1-AS1 and LEF1 were highly expressed while miR-330-5p was poorly expressed in PCa. Following that, the PCa PC-3 cell line was adopted for subsequently experiments, in which the expression of LEF1-AS1 and miR-330-5p was subsequently altered by means of exogenous transfection. After that, the effects of up- or downregulation of LEF1-AS1 and miR-330-5p on epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the cell ability for proliferation, invasion, migration in vitro, and tumorigenesis and lymph node metastasis (LNM) in vivo were evaluated. RNA crosstalk revealed that LEF1-AS1 bound to miR-330-5p and LEF1 was the target gene of miR-330-5p. Silenced LEF1-AS1 or elevated miR-330-5p exhibited inhibited EMT processes, reduced ability of proliferation, invasion and migration, coupling with decreased tumorigenesis and LNM in nude mice. The key findings of this study collectively propose downregulation of LEF1-AS1 competing with miR-330-5p to inhibit EMT, invasion and migration of PCa by LEF1 repression.  相似文献

Lung cancer has been proved to be one of the most common kinds of cancers around the globe. Meanwhile, as the predominant type of lung cancer, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has received increasing attention in cancer research. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to be associated with oncogenesis and progression of various cancers. However, many lncRNAs have not been thoroughly detected in LUAD. In this study, through bioinformatics analysis we found that zinc finger protein multitype 2 antisense RNA 1 (ZFPM2-AS1) was associated with poor prognosis of LUAD patients. Also, ZFPM2-AS1 was detected to be overexpressed in LUAD tissues and cells. Furthermore, ZFPM2-AS1 could promote the proliferation of LUAD cells. Next, miR-18b-5p was found to bind with and negatively regulated by ZFPM2-AS1. VMA21, target gene of miR-18b-5p, could bind with and be negatively regulated by miR-18b-5p. More importantly, both ZFPM2-AS1 and VMA21 were found to be attached to the RNA-induced silencing complex constructed from miR-18b-5p and Ago2. Also, ZFPM2-AS1 could regulate the expression of VMA21. Therefore, ZFPM2-AS1 were confirmed to regulate VMA21 by competitively binding with miR-18b-5p. Finally, rescue assays confirmed that ZFPM2-AS1 could regulate LUAD cell proliferation via miR-18b-5p/VMA21 axis.  相似文献

Opa-interacting protein 5 antisense RNA 1 (OIP5-AS1), a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), has been reported to link with the progression of some cancers. However, its biological functions and underlying molecular mechanisms in pancreatic cancer are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of lncRNA OIP5-AS1 in pancreatic cancer. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that OIP5-AS1 is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer tissues versus adjacent non-tumor tissues. In vitro functional assays showed that downregulation of OIP5-AS1 or overexpression of miR-342-3p inhibited the proliferation, decreased Ki67 expression, and induced cell cycle arrest in pancreatic cancer cells. The expression of cyclinD1, CDK4, and CDK6 was decreased by knockdown of OIP5-AS1. Moreover, we found that OIP5-AS1 acted as a miR-342-3p sponge to suppress its expression and function. Dual-luciferase assay confirmed the interaction of OIP5-AS1 and miR-342-3p and verified anterior gradient 2 (AGR2) as a direct target of miR-342-3p. Results showed that depletion of miR-342-3p abolished the inhibitory effects of OIP5-AS1 knockdown on pancreatic cancer cell growth. The expression of Ki67, AGR2, cyclinD1, CDK4, CDK6, p-AKT, and p-ERK1/2 was reversed by silencing of miR-342-3p in pancreatic cancer cells with OIP5-AS1 knockdown. Further, knockdown of OIP5-AS1 suppressed tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model of pancreatic cancer. OIP5-AS1 induced pancreatic cancer progression via activation of AKT and ERK signaling pathways. Therefore, we demonstrate that OIP5-AS1 functions as oncogene in pancreatic cancer and its downregulation inhibits pancreatic cancer growth by sponging miR-342-3p via targeting AGR2 through inhibiting AKT/ERK signaling pathway.

Long non-coding RNA DLX6 antisense RNA 1 (DLX6-AS1) lists a critical position in thyroid carcinoma (TC) development. However, the overall comprehension about DLX6-AS1, microRNA (miR)-193b-3p and homeobox A1 (HOXA1) in TC is not thoroughly enough. Concerning to this, this work is pivoted on DLX6-AS1/miR-193b-3p/HOXA1 axis in TC cell growth and autophagy. TC tissues and adjacent normal thyroid tissues were collected, in which expression of DLX6-AS1, miR-193b-3p and HOXA1 was tested, together with their interactions. TC cells were transfected with DLX6-AS1/miR-193b-3p-related oligonucleotides or plasmids to test cell growth and autophagy. Tumorigenesis in nude mice was observed. DLX6-AS1 and HOXA1 were up-regulated, and miR-193b-3p was down-regulated in TC. Depleted DLX6-AS1 or restored miR-193b-3p disturbed cell growth and promoted autophagy. DLX6-AS1 targeted miR-193b-3p and positively regulated HOXA1. miR-193b-3p inhibition mitigated the impaired tumorigenesis induced by down-regulated DLX6-AS1. Tumorigenesis in nude mice was consistent with that in cells. It is clear that DLX6-AS1 depletion hinders TC cell growth and promotes autophagy via up-regulating miR-193b-3p and down-regulating HOXA1.  相似文献

Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have become the key gene regulators and prognostic biomarkers in various cancers. Through microarray data, Linc00339 was identified as a candidate oncogenic lncRNA. We compared the expression levels of Linc00339 in several breast cancer cell lines and normal mammary gland epithelial cell line. The effects of Linc00339 on tumor progression were examined both in vitro and in vivo. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assays were applied to evaluate the functions of Linc00339, miR-377-3p, and HOXC6 on cell proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis was used to detect apoptosis and cell cycle distribution. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and molecular taxonomy of breast cancer international consortium (METABRIC). Dual luciferase assay and RNA immunoprecipitation were performed to confirm the interaction between Linc003339 and miR-377-3p. Linc00339 was increased in breast cancer cell lines compared with the normal epithelial cell. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, Linc00339 overexpression promoted triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) proliferation, inhibited cell cycle arrest, and suppressed apoptosis. Silencing of Linc00339 obtained the opposite effects. Mechanistic investigations demonstrated that Linc00339 could sponge miR-377-3p and regulate its expression. Higher expression of miR-377-3p indicated longer OS in breast cancer patients, especially in TNBC patients. Overexpression of miR-377-3p retarded TNBC cell growth through regulating cell cycle distribution and apoptosis. And miR-377-3p was involved in Linc00339-mediated TNBC proliferation through regulating HOXC6 expression. Knockdown of HOXC6 inhibited TNBC progression. In conclusion, our results illuminated that the novel Linc00339/miR-377-3p/HOXC6 axis played a critical role in TNBC progression and might be a promising therapeutic target for TNBC treatment.  相似文献
