Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. Currently, an increasing evidence showed that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in tumor progression. However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in CRC progression remain unclear. In the present study, through circRNA high-throughput sequencing and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, we identified that hsa_circ_0136666 was significantly overexpressed in CRC tissues and cell lines. High hsa_circ_0136666 expression was associated with poor overall survival of patients with CRC. In vitro function assays showed that hsa_circ_0136666 inhibition suppressed CRC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and arrested CRC cells in the G0/G1 phase. Furthermore, we showed that hsa_circ_0136666 inhibition reduced CRC cell growth in vivo. Mechanistically, we revealed that hsa_circ_0136666 could increase SH2B1 expression via competitively binding miR-136 in CRC cells. In addition, SH2B1 overexpression could reverse the effects of hsa_circ_0136666 inhibition on CRC cell progression. In conclusion, our data suggested that hsa_circ_0136666 could promote CRC cell progression via the miR-136/SH2B1 axis, elucidating a novel approach to improve the effectiveness of CRC treatment. 相似文献

The role of circulating exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in colorectal cancer (CRC) has drawn more and more attention during the past few years. Previously, we have identified several specific miRNAs in serum exosomes as potential CRC biomarkers. However, little is known about the association between exosome-encapsulated miR-548c-5p and outcomes of patients with CRC. In the current study, the expression of serum exosomal miR-548c-5p was investigated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Its correlation with CRC prognosis was estimated by Kaplan-Meier survival and log-rank tests. Cox regression analysis based on uni- and multivariate analyses was performed to estimate the relationship of exosome-encapsulated miR-548c-5p with the clinicopathological factors of patients with CRC. Reduced levels of serum exosomal miR-548c-5p were more significant in CRC patients with liver metastasis and at later TNM stage (III/IV tumor stages). Serum exosomal miR-548c-5p could inhibit the proliferation of CRC cells, while the precise molecular mechanisms warranted further elucidation. In addition, decreased levels of serum exosomal miR-548c-5p were independently associated with shorter overall survival in CRC adjusted by age, sex, tumor grade vascular infiltration, TNM stage (III/IV tumor stages) and metastasis (hazard ratio = 3.40, 95% confidence interval 1.02-11.27; P = 0.046). The downregulation of exosomal miR-548c-5p in serum predicts poor prognosis in patients with CRC. Exosomal miR-548c-5p may be a critical biomarker for CRC diagnosis and prognosis. 相似文献

The purpose of our study was to investigate the effects of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) ABHD11-AS1 on colorectal cancer (CRC) progression and further explore its possible underlying mechanisms. In the study, we found that ABHD11-AS1 was highly expressed in CRC tissues and cell lines. High ABHD11-AS1 expression was correlated with poor overall survival of patients with CRC. ABHD11-AS1 knockdown reduced CRC cell proliferation, in vitro invasion, and in vivo tumor growth. Investigation of the underlying mechanism showed that ABHD11-AS1 could act as a molecular sponge of miR-1254, and WNT11 was a downstream target of miR-1254 in CRC. Moreover, there was a negative association between ABHD11-AS1 expression (or WNT11) and miR-1254 in CRC tissues. The rescue assays showed that WNT11 overexpression partially rescued the effects of ABHD11-AS1 inhibition on CRC progression. Thus, we demonstrated that ABHD11-AS1 promotes CRC progression through the miR-1254-WNT11 pathway, which provides a new insight into the therapeutic strategies for CRC. 相似文献

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is one of the most common digestive system malignant tumors. Recently, PDT has been used as a first-line treatment for colon cancer; however, limited curative effect was obtained due to resistance of CRC to PDT. During the past decades, accumulating CRC-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and mRNAs have been reported to exert diverse functions through various biological processes; their dysregulation might trigger and/or promote the pathological changes. Herein, we performed microarrays analysis to identify dysregulated lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs in PDT-treated HCT116 cells to figure out the lncRNA-miRNA interactions related to the resistance of CRC to PDT treatment, and the downstream mRNA target, as well as the molecular mechanism. We found a total of 1096 lncRNAs dysregulated in PDT-treated CRC HCT116 cells; among them, LIFR-AS1 negatively interacted with miR-29a, one of the dysregulated miRNAs in PDT-treated CRC cells, to affect the resistance of CRC to PDT. LIFR-AS1 knockdown attenuated, whereas miR-29a inhibition enhanced the cellular effect of PDT on HCT116 cell proliferation and apoptosis. Furthermore, among the dysregulated mRNAs, TNFAIP3 was confirmed to be a direct target of miR-29a and exerted a similar effect to LIFR-AS1 on the cellular effects of PDT. In summary, LIFR-AS1 serves as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-29a to inhibit its expression and up-regulate downstream target TNFAIP3 expression, finally modulating the resistance of CRC to PDT. We provide an experimental basis for this lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA network being a promising target in CRC resistance to PDT treatment. 相似文献

Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) is a potential oncogene that has been implicated in several malignant tumors. However, the regulatory mechanism of IRS1 remains to be investigated. The aim of our current study is to unveil the mechanism by which IRS1 exerts functions in tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC). The expression level of IRS1 was found to be higher in CRC cells in comparison with the normal cell. To determine the role of IRS1 in regulating CRC cellular processes, loss-of-function assays were designed and carried out in two CRC cell lines. Both in vitro and in vivo functional assays indicated that silencing of IRS1 suppressed CRC cell survival. Based on bioinformatics prediction and mechanism experiments, IRS1 was identified as a downstream target of miR-30a-5p. Furthermore, RNA-binding protein lin-28 homolog B (LIN28B) was determined to be a stabilizer of IRS1 messenger RNA. More importantly, LIN28B also acted as a target of miR-30a-5p.Through rescue assays, we proved that LIN28B-stablized IRS1 mediated miR-30a-5p-mediated CRC cell growth. In conclusion, this study revealed that LIN28B and LIN28B-stablized IRS1 promoted CRC cell growth by cooperating with miR-30a-5p. 相似文献

Aberrant expression of microRNA-34a (miR-34a) has been reported to be involved in the tumorigenesis and progression of various classes of malignancies. However, its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been completely clarified. In the current study, we have investigated the clinical significance of miR-34a. MiR-34a expression in forty-three cases of colorectal cancer tissues decreased significantly compared to that in the adjacent non-tumorous colorectal tissues (P<0.05), as detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). Significantly, the expression of miR-34a was correlated with infiltration depth and clinical TNM stage (P <0.05). The miR-34a however had no correlation with other features, such as age, gender, site, tumor sizes, lymph node metastasis, serous membrane infiltration ( all P> 0.05). MiR-34a is a tumor suppressor miRNA that plays a vital role in the oncogenesis and progression of colorectal cancer. This study suggests that miR-34a may be a new tumor marker or prognostic factor in colorectal cancer. The strategies to increase miR-34a level might be a critical targeted therapy for CRC in the future. 相似文献

Cancer stem cells promote tumorigenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, emerging evidence indicates tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an important role in tumor progression. However, TAMs often occurs with unknown mechanisms. As an important mediator in intercellular communications, exosomes secreted by host cells mediate the exchange of genetic materials and proteins, which involves tumor aggressiveness. The aim of the study was to investigate whether exosomes derived from TAMs mediate stem cell properties in HCC. TAMs were isolated from the tissues of HCC. microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles of TAMs were analyzed using miRNA microarray. In vitro cell coculture was further conducted to investigate the crosstalk between TAMs and tumor cells mediated by TAMs exosomes. In this study, we showed that TAMs exosomes promote HCC cell proliferation and stem cell properties. Using miRNA profiles assay, we identified significantly lower levels of miR-125a and miR-125b in exosomes and cell lysate isolated from TAMs. Functional studies revealed that the HCC cells were treated with TAM exosomes or transfected with miR-125a/b suppressed cell proliferation and stem cell properties by targeting CD90, a stem cell marker of HCC stem cells. The study indicated that miR-125a/b targeting CD90 played important roles in cancer stem cells of HCC. 相似文献

microRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that regulates the expression of target messenger RNAs (mRNAs). c-FLIP is an inhibitor of cell apoptosis through inhibition of caspase 8. miR-150, miR-504, and miR-519d were related to cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and migration in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the role of miR-150-504-519d in CRC has not been studied and the relationship between miR-150-504-519d and c-FLIP remains unclear. In this study, we found that c-FLIP was upregulated in CRC tissues, without detectable expression in normal CRC tissues. Using SW48 cell line, we further showed that miR-150-504-519d inhibited migration, invasion, and promoted apoptosis of SW48 cells. Moreover, in SW48 cell line transfected with miR-150-504-519d, the protein expression of c-FLIP was significantly lower compared with cells transfected with scramble. Our results demonstrated upregulation of c-FLIP in CRC, which was downregulated in SW48 cells after the transfection of miR-150-504-519d, suggesting that manipulation of miR-150-504-519d expression might be a novel approach for the treatment of colorectal cancer. 相似文献

DISC1 gene polymorphisms and the risk of schizophrenia in an Iranian population: A preliminary study
Alireza Shokouhifar Nasrin Askari Shaghayegh Yazdani Jalil Fallah Mehrabadi 《Journal of cellular biochemistry》2019,120(2):1588-1597
Background: Schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and bipolar illness are common psychological disorders with high heritability and variable phenotypes. The disrupted in schizophrenia 1 ( DISC1) gene, on chromosome 1q42, has an essential role in neurite outgrowth and cell signaling. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs6675281, rs2255340, and rs2738864) with schizophrenia disorder. These three SNPs were chosen as they had been used in most of the previous studies. Methods: In a case-control study of Iranian population for the first time 778 blood samples were collected including, 402 schizophrenic patients and 376 healthy controls. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood using DNA extraction kit (BioFlux Co). The genotypes of rs6675281, rs2255340, and rs2738864 were detected by nested allele-specific multiplex polymersae chain reaction (PCR). Results: Our data revealed that the three SNPs are significantly associated with schizophrenia (rs2255349 C>T: confidence interval (CI), 2.115 to 3.268; P = 0.0000 OR: 2.629; rs2738864 C>T: CI, 1.538 to 2.339; P = 0.0000 OR: 1.897; rs6675281 C>T: CI, 2.788 to 4.662; P = 0.0009241 OR: 3.605). Through applying the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, we calculated the haplotype frequency, and finally performed haplotype analysis with Bonferroni correction and data preprocessing methods and the results showed rs66875281 to have the highest association. Discussion: Our findings primarily showed that DISC1 gene polymorphisms contribute to schizophrenia risk and have a significant association with this disorder among Iranian population. The strategy was found to be easy, rapid, specific, and consistent for the co-occurring detection of the DISC1 polymorphisms. We could finally confirm that the polymorphisms are related to schizophrenia studied in Iranian population. 相似文献

Finding ways to reduce myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in the process of myocardial infarction has been an area of intense study in the field of heart disease. Recent studies have shown that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and autophagy play important roles in cardiovascular diseases. In our study, software analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assays have shown that miR-30a has binding sites on both AK088388 and Beclin-1. Continuing experiments found that miR-30a expression is downregulated, while the expressions of AK088388, Beclin-1, and LC3-II are upregulated in hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) cardiomyocytes; miR-30a inhibits the expression of AK088388, Beclin-1, and LC3-II in H/R cardiomyocytes, while AK088388 promotes the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3-II and inhibits miR-30a expression. AK088388 small interfering RNA and miR-30a mimics can promote the viability of H/R cardiomyocytes, reduce lactate dehydrogenase release, and reduce apoptosis. Mutations of the miR-30a binding site in AK088388 could not block the effects of miR-30a mentioned above. Therefore, AK088388 can competitively bind to miR-30a, promoting the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3-II, autophagy, and eventually cell damage. This finding provides new evidence for understanding the role of lncRNA in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. 相似文献

This case–control study was conducted to examine the association between the CYP1A1 and CYP2D6 genotypes and lung cancer risk among North Indians. The estimated relative risk for lung cancer associated with the CYP1A1 Val/Val allele was 2.68, and was four-fold when cases with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) were considered alone. With regard to the metabolism of debrisoquine, no poor metabolizers were found amongst the subjects. The odds ratio of risk with the heterozygous extensive metabolizer (HEM) genotype was 1.5. However, in the presence of at least a single copy of the variant CYP1A1 MspI allele and the CYP2D6 HEM genotype, the risk was two-fold for squamous cell carcinoma (SQCC). When the CYP1A1 Val/Val and CYP2D6 HEM genotypes were taken together, the risk for SCLC was four-fold. Stratified analysis indicated an interaction between bidi smoking and variant CYP1A1 genotypes on the risk for SQCC and SCLC. Heavy smokers (Brinkman index>400) with Val/Val genotypes were at a very high risk of developing lung cancer (odds ratio 29.30, 95% confidence interval 2.42–355, p=0.008). Heavy smokers with CYP1A1 MspI (CYP1A1*1/2A or CYP1A1*2A/*2A) genotype had a seven-fold risk for SCLC compared with non-smokers. This study is the first to be carried out on a North Indian population, and, although small, suggests that CYP1A1 and CYP2D6 polymorphisms might have a role in determining the risk for lung cancer and should be investigated further. 相似文献

The epigenetic regulation of genes has long been recognized as one of the causes of prostate cancer (PCa) development and progression. Recent studies have shown that a number of microRNAs (miRNAs) are also epigenetically regulated in different types of cancers including PCa. In this study, we found that the DNA sequence of the promoters of miR-29a and miR-1256 are partly methylated in PCa cells, which leads to their lower expression both in PCa cells and in human tumor tissues compared with normal epithelial cells and normal human prostate tissues. By real-time PCR, Western Blot analysis and miRNA mimic and 3′-UTR-Luc transfection, we found that TRIM68 is a direct target of miR-29a and miR-1256 and that the downregulation of miR-29a and miR-1256 in PCa cells leads to increased expression of TRIM68 and PGK-1 in PCa cells and in human tumor tissue specimens. Interestingly, we found that a natural agent, isoflavone, could demethylate the methylation sites in the promoter sequence of miR-29a and miR-1256, leading to the upregulation of miR-29a and miR-1256 expression. The increased levels of miR-29a and miR-1256 by isoflavone treatment resulted in decreased expression of TRIM68 and PGK-1, which is mechanistically linked with inhibition of PCa cell growth and invasion. The selective demethylation activity of isoflavone on miR-29a and miR-1256 leading to the suppression of TRIM68 and PGK-1 expression is an important biological effect of isoflavone, suggesting that isoflavone could be a useful non-toxic demethylating agent for the prevention of PCa development and progression. 相似文献

Overexpression of MALAT1 contributes to cervical cancer progression by acting as a sponge of miR-429
Fujin Shen Hongyun Zheng Limei Zhou Wei Li Xuexian Xu 《Journal of cellular physiology》2019,234(7):11219-11226
Cervical cancer remains a malignant type of tumor and is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death among females. MALAT1 has been identified as a tumor oncogene in various cancers. Our present study aimed to explore the biological role of MALAT1 in cervical cancer. We observed that MALAT1 was significantly upregulated in human cervical cancer cell lines compared with the ectocervical epithelial cells. MALAT1 was repressed by transfection with LV-shMALAT1, whereas increased by LV-MALAT1 in HeLa and Caski cells. Silencing of MALAT1 obviously reduced cervical cell viability, induced cell apoptosis, and repressed cell invasion capacity. Conversely, overexpression of MALAT1 exhibited an opposite phenomenon. Furthermore, miR-429 was predicted as a direct target of MALAT1, and it was dramatically decreased in cervical cancer cells. It has been shown that miR-429 plays a crucial role in cervical cancer progression. In our current study, the targeting correlation between MALAT1 and miR-429 was confirmed by luciferase reporter assays and RIP experiments. Finally, in vivo animal models were established, and we indicated that MALAT1 inhibited cervical cancer progression via targeting miR-429. These findings revealed that MALAT1 can sponge miR-429 and regulate cervical cancer pathogenesis in vivo and in vitro. In conclusion, we indicated that the MALAT1/miR-429 axis was involved in cervical cancer development. 相似文献

The current study aimed to examine the impact of POLR2E rs1046040 and rs3787016 polymorphisms on prostate cancer (PCa) risk in a sample of southeast Iranian population. The present case-control study was performed on 178 patients with PCa and 180 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Genotyping of the variants was done by mismatch PCR-RFLP. The findings showed that the rs3787016 C?>?T variant significantly increased the risk of PCa in codominant (OR?=?1.84, 95% CI?=?1.12-3.03, P?=?0.018, CT vs CC), dominant (OR?=?1.88, 95% CI?=?1.63-3.05, P?=?0.011, CT?+?TT vas CC) and allele (OR?=?1.77, 95% CI?=?1.52-2.72, P?=?0.010, T vs C) inheritance model. Regarding rs1046040 C?>?T polymorphism, the findings revealed that the CT genotype significantly increased the risk of PCa compared to the CC genotype (OR?=?1.60, 95% CI?=?1.03-2.49, P?=?0.043). Furthermore, rs3787016 CT/rs1046040?CC as well as rs3787016 CT/rs1046040 CT increased the risk of PCa compared to the CC/CC genotype (p?=?0.029 and p?=?0.014, respectively). Haplotype analysis proposed that rs3787016 T/rs1046040 C significantly increased the risk of PCa compared to C/C (p?=?0.037). No significant association was observed between POLR2E variants and clinicopathological characteristics of PCa patients. In conclusion, the findings propose that POLR2E variants may be a risk factor for susceptibility to PCa in a sample of Iranian population. 相似文献
