Clinical Significance and Effect of lncRNA HOXA11-AS in NSCLC: A Study Based on Bioinformatics, In Vitro and in Vivo Verification.

ABSTRACT: HOXA11 antisense RNA (HOXA11-AS) has been shown to be involved in tumorigenesis and development of different cancers. However, the role of HOXA11-AS in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. In this study, we firstly explored and confirmed the expression of HOXA11-AS in NSCLC tissues and cells. Cytometry, CCK-8, cell scratch, migration, Matrigel invasion and flow cytometry assays were performed to determine the biological impact of HOXA11-AS in vitro. Furthermore, a chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model of NSCLC was constructed to explore the effect of HOXA11-AS on tumorigenicity and angiogenesis in vivo. Additionally, bioinformatics analyses were performed to investigate the prospective pathways of HOXA11-AS co-expressed genes. As results, HOXA11-AS was markedly highly expressed in NSCLC tissues and cells. Furthermore, the proliferation, migration, invasion, tumorigenic and angiogenic ability of NSCLC cells were all inhibited and apoptosis was induced after HOXA11-AS knock-down. HOXA11-AS RNAi also led to cell cycle arrest on G0/G1 or G2/M phase. In addition, the non-small cell lung cancer pathway might be involved in regulating the co-expressed genes of HOXA11-AS in NSCLC. These results indicate that HOXA11-AS plays pivotal roles in NSCLC and it can become a novel therapeutic direction for treating NSCLC.

Project description:Cuproptosis is a form of cell death caused by intracellular copper excess, which plays an important regulatory role in the development and progression of cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a prevalent malignancy with high morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to create a cuproptosis associated long non-coding RNAs (CAlncRNAs)signature to predict HCC patient survival and immunotherapy response. Firstly, we identified 509 CAlncRNAs using Pearson correlation analysis in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets, before the three CAlncRNAs (MKLN1-AS, FOXD2-AS1, LINC02870) with the most prognostic value were further screened. Then, we constructed a prognostic risk model for HCCwas using univariate and LASSO Cox regression analyses. Multivariate Cox regression analyses illustrated that this model was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) prediction, outperforming traditional clinicopathological factors. And the risk score not only could be prognostic factors independent of other factors but also suited for patients with diverse ages, stages, and grades. The 1-, 3-, and 5- years areas under the curves (AUC) values of the model were 0.759, 0.668 and 0.674 respectively. Pathway analyses showed that the high-risk groupenriched in immune-related pathways. Importantly, patients with higher risk scores exhibited higher mutation frequency, higher TMB scores, and lower TIDE scores. Besides, we screened for two chemical drugs (A-443654 and Pyrimethamine) with the greatest value for high-risk HCC patients. Finally, the abnormal high expression of the three CAlncRNAs were confirmed in HCC tissues and cells by Real Time Quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). And proliferative, migratory and invasion abilities of HCC cell were restrained via silencing CAlncRNAs expression in vitro. In summary, we built a CAlncRNAs-based risk score model, which can be a candidate for HCC patients prognostic prediction and offer some useful information for immunotherapies.

Project description:Background & aimsPerilipin 1 (PLIN1) is an essential lipid droplet surface protein that participates in cell life activities by regulating energy balance and lipid metabolism. PLIN1 has been shown to be closely related to the development of numerous tumor types. The purpose of this work was to elucidate the clinicopathologic significance of PLIN1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), as well as its impact on the biological functions of HCC cells, and to investigate the underlying mechanisms involved.MethodsPublic high-throughput RNA microarray and RNA sequencing data were collected to examine PLIN1 levels and clinical significance in patients with HCC. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT‒qPCR) were conducted to assess the expression levels and the clinicopathological relevance of PLIN1 in HCC. Then, SK and Huh7 cells were transfected with a lentivirus overexpressing PLIN1. CCK8 assay, wound healing assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometric analysis were conducted to explore the effects of PLIN1 overexpression on HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and cell cycle distribution. Ultimately, Gene Ontology (GO) functional annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were performed to investigate the underlying mechanisms of PLIN1 in HCC progression based on HCC differentially expressed genes and PLIN1 co-expressed genes.ResultsPLIN1 was markedly downregulated in HCC tissues, which correlated with a noticeably worse prognosis for HCC patients. Additionally, PLIN1 overexpression inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of SK and Huh7 cells in vitro, as well as arresting the HCC cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase. More significantly, energy conversion-related biological processes, lipid metabolism, and cell cycle signalling pathways were the three most enriched molecular mechanisms.ConclusionThe present study revealed that PLIN1 downregulation is associated with poor prognosis in HCC patients and accelerated HCC progression by promoting cellular proliferation, migration, and metastasis, as well as the mechanisms underlying the regulation of lipid metabolism-related pathways in HCC.
