The Long Non-Coding RNA ANRIL in Cancers.

ABSTRACT: ANRIL (Antisense Noncoding RNA in the INK4 Locus), a long non-coding RNA encoded in the human chromosome 9p21 region, is a critical factor for regulating gene expression by interacting with multiple proteins and miRNAs. It has been found to play important roles in various cellular processes, including cell cycle control and proliferation. Dysregulation of ANRIL has been associated with several diseases like cancers and cardiovascular diseases, for instance. Understanding the oncogenic role of ANRIL and its potential as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in cancer is crucial. This review provides insights into the regulatory mechanisms and oncogenic significance of the 9p21 locus and ANRIL in cancer.

Long Non-coding RNA ANRIL and Polycomb in Human Cancers and Cardiovascular Disease.

Project description:The long non-coding RNA CDKN2B-AS1, commonly referred to as the A ntisense N on-coding R NA in the I NK4 L ocus (ANRIL), is a 3.8-kb-long RNA transcribed from the short arm of human chromosome 9 on p21.3 that overlaps a critical region encompassing three major tumor suppressor loci juxtaposed to the INK4b-ARF-INK4a gene cluster and the methyl-thioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) gene. Genome-wide association studies have identified this region with a remarkable and growing number of disease-associated DNA alterations and single nucleotide polymorphisms, which corresponds to increased susceptibility to human disease. Recent attention has been devoted on whether these alterations in the ANRIL sequence affect its expression levels and/or its splicing transcript variation, and in consequence, global cellular homeostasis. Moreover, recent evidence postulates that ANRIL not only can regulate their immediate genomic neighbors in cis, but also has the capacity to regulate additional loci in trans. This action would further increase the complexity for mechanisms imposed through ANRIL and furthering the scope of this lncRNA in disease pathogenesis. In this chapter, we summarize the most recent findings on the investigation of ANRIL and provide a perspective on the biological and clinical significance of ANRIL as a putative biomarker, specifically, its potential role in directing cellular fates leading to cancer and cardiovascular disease.

The role of long non-coding RNA ANRIL in the development of atherosclerosis.

Project description:Atherosclerosis is an important pathological basis of coronary heart disease, and the antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) is located in the genetically susceptible segment with the strongest correlation with it - the short arm 2 region 1 of chromosome 9 (Chr9p21). ANRIL can produce linear, circular and other transcripts through different transcriptional splicing methods, which can regulate the proliferation and apoptosis of related cells and closely related to the development of atherosclerotic plaques. Linear ANRIL can regulate proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in plaques by chromatin modification, as well as affecting on proliferation and the apoptosis of macrophages at the transcriptional level; circular ANRIL can affect on proliferation and apoptosis of VSMCs by chromatin modification as well as interfering with rRNA maturation. In this review we describe the evolutionary characteristics of ANRIL, the formation and structure of transcripts, and the mechanism by which each transcript regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of vascular cells and then participates in atherosclerosis.

The clinical significance of long non-coding RNA ANRIL level in diabetic retinopathy.

Project description:AimTo analyse the expression of lncRNA-ANRIL and other related factors in different human body fluids, explore the clinical significance of ANRIL and validate whether ANRIL is interrelated with the renin-angiotensin system and NF-κB signalling pathway.MethodsNinety-one patients were included in this cross-sectional study and were divided into the NDM group (20 patients), DM group (25 patients), NPDR group (21 patients) and PDR group (25 patients). Basic information and samples of serum, aqueous fluid and vitreous fluid were collected before vitrectomy or intravitreal injection. The transcription and levels of ANRIL and other related factors were detected by RT-PCR and ELISA. Statistical Package for Social Sciences software was used for statistical analysis.ResultsANRIL expression varied among different groups and body fluids. There was no difference in ANRIL expression between the NDM and DM groups, but the level of ANRIL was significantly lower in the DM group than in the NPDR and PDR group. In vitreous fluid, ANRIL expression was positively correlated with Ang II, p65 and VEGF expression in the PDR group. The expression of ANRIL in serum was not significantly correlated with age or the random blood sugar but was positively correlated with diabetic duration and HbAc1 level.ConclusionsLevels of lncRNA-ANRIL are higher in DR patient and correlated with the progression of DR that may be used as an indicator to predict the development of DR. The activation of the RAS and the NF-κB pathway may be closely related to the upregulation of ANRIL. Clinical trial number ChiCTR1800017500. Registry Chinese Clinical Trial Registry.

Long Non-Coding RNA BLACAT1 in Human Cancers.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a cluster of RNAs with more than 200 nucleotides in length, which lack protein-coding capacity. They are important regulators of numerous cellular processes, including gene transcription, translation, and posttranslational modification, especially in tumor initiation and progression. Aberrant expression of lncRNA bladder cancer-associated transcript 1 (BLACAT1) has been reported in various human cancers and was usually associated with unfavorable prognosis. Previous studies have revealed that dysregulation of BLACAT1 could promote the proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells. In this review, we summarize the present understanding of the functions and underlying mechanisms of BLACAT1 in the occurrence and development of various human cancers and discuss the roles of this lncRNA in cancers, including its promising application as a prognostic biomarker or a novel therapeutic target for malignancies.

Long Intergenic Non-protein Coding RNA 511 in Cancers.

Project description:Background: Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 511 (LINC00511) is upregulated in diverse cancers and involved in prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic profile of LINC00511 in cancer patients. Methods: Published studies evaluating the prognosis of LINC00511 in patients with different cancers were identified from Medline, Embase, and Web of Science. Analysis of the association between LINC00511 and clinicopathological characteristics was conducted. GEPIA was used to validation and functional analysis and LnCeVar was used to get genomic variations. Results: We eventually included 9 studies, and the combined results showed LINC00511 was significantly associated with decreased OS (HR = 3.18, 95% CI = 2.29 ~ 4.42, P < 0.001) albeit with mild heterogeneity (I 2 = 58.1%, P h = 0.014), similarly in cancer type subgroups: breast cancer, digestive system cancer, and cervical cancer (all P < 0.001). There is no publication bias and meta-regression indicated follow-up time maybe heterogeneity of the results (P = 0.008). Additionally, LINC00511 appeared to be correlated with age, clinical stage, tumor size, and lymph node metastasis. Those findings were confirmed in GEPIA. Through LnCeVars, gene ontology and functional pathways were enriched, and dysregulated hallmarks and related ceRNA network of LINC00511 were disturbed. Conclusions: LINC00511 could be predictive of poor OS and lymph node metastasis in multiple cancers, in another word, LINC00511 serves as an unfavorable prognostic factor, and its mechanism is related to ceRNA.

Long Non-Coding RNA in the Pathogenesis of Cancers.

Project description:The incidence and mortality rate of cancer has been quickly increasing in the past decades. At present, cancer has become the leading cause of death worldwide. Most of the cancers cannot be effectively diagnosed at the early stage. Although there are multiple therapeutic treatments, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted drugs, their effectiveness is still limited. The overall survival rate of malignant cancers is still low. It is necessary to further study the mechanisms for malignant cancers, and explore new biomarkers and targets that are more sensitive and effective for early diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cancers than traditional biomarkers and methods. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNA transcripts with a length greater than 200 nucleotides. Generally, lncRNAs are not capable of encoding proteins or peptides. LncRNAs exert diverse biological functions by regulating gene expressions and functions at transcriptional, translational, and post-translational levels. In the past decade, it has been demonstrated that the dysregulated lncRNA profile is widely involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cancer, metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. In particular, lncRNAs have been revealed to play an important role in tumor growth and metastasis. Many lncRNAs have been shown to be potential biomarkers and targets for the diagnosis and treatment of cancers. This review aims to briefly discuss the latest findings regarding the roles and mechanisms of some important lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of certain malignant cancers, including lung, breast, liver, and colorectal cancers, as well as hematological malignancies and neuroblastoma.

HOTAIR: an oncogenic long non-coding RNA in different cancers.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) refer to a group of RNAs that are usually more than 200 nucleotides and are not involved in protein generation. Instead, lncRNAs are involved in different regulatory processes, such as regulation of gene expression. Different lncRNAs exist throughout the genome. LncRNAs are also known for their roles in different human diseases such as cancer. HOTAIR is an lncRNA that plays a role as an oncogenic molecule in different cancer cells, such as breast, gastric, colorectal, and cervical cancer cells. Therefore, HOTAIR expression level is a potential biomarker for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in several cancers. This RNA takes part in epigenetic regulation of genes and plays an important role in different cellular pathways by interacting with Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). In this review, we describe the molecular function and regulation of HOTAIR and its role in different types of cancers.

Long Non-coding RNA ANRIL in the Nucleus Associates With Periostin Expression in Breast Cancer.

Project description:The long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) antisense RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) is overexpressed in several cancers including breast cancer. To better understand the role of ANRIL in breast cancer this study investigated where ANRIL was expressed in breast tumors using in situ hybridization by RNAscope. Additional RNAscope assays for IL6, CCL2, and POSTN were used to establish whether ANRIL correlated with increased tumor promoting cytokines. Breast tumors with ANRIL over expressed from real-time quantitative (RT-q) PCR assays were selected for analysis using RNAscope. All tumors showed ANRIL expression in malignant cells, but amongst tumors ANRIL showed different subcellular locations with 56% of tumors with ANRIL only in the nucleus, 16% with ANRIL only in the cytoplasm and 28% with ANRIL in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Cases with nuclear ANRIL were positively correlated with POSTN expression in malignant cells (ρ = 0.57, P = 0.0086), and no correlation was found between ANRIL and IL6 or CCL2. Reduced POSTN was also found using siRNA to ANRIL in MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 breast cancer cells. These data indicate that ANRIL is expressed in malignant breast cells, and suggest its subcellular location may indicate its function in cancer progression.

Implication of repeat insertion domains in the trans-activity of the long non-coding RNA ANRIL.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs have emerged as critical regulators of cell homeostasis by modulating gene expression at chromatin level for instance. Here, we report that the lncRNA ANRIL, associated with several pathologies, binds to thousands of loci dispersed throughout the mammalian genome sharing a 21-bp motif enriched in G/A residues. By combining ANRIL genomic occupancy with transcriptomic analysis, we established a list of 65 and 123 genes potentially directly activated and silenced by ANRIL in trans, respectively. We also found that Exon8 of ANRIL, mainly made of transposable elements, contributes to ANRIL genomic association and consequently to its trans-activity. Furthermore, we showed that Exon8 favors ANRIL's association with the FIRRE, TPD52L1 and IGFBP3 loci to modulate their expression through H3K27me3 deposition. We also investigated the mechanisms engaged by Exon8 to favor ANRIL's association with the genome. Our data refine ANRIL's trans-activity and highlight the functional importance of TEs on ANRIL's activity.
