SNHG1 promotes malignant biological behaviors of glioma cells via microRNA-154-5p/miR-376b-3p- FOXP2- KDM5B participating positive feedback loop.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long non-coding RNAs has been reported in tumorigenesis and play important roles in regulating malignant behavior of cancers, including glioma.

Methods

According to the TCGA database, we identified SNHG1, miRNA-154-5p and miR-376b-3p whose expression were significantly changed in the glioma samples. Furthermore, we investigated SNHG1, miRNA-154-5p and miR-376b-3p expression in clinical samples and glioma cell lines using qRT-PCR analysis and the correlation between them using RNA immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter. The underlying mechanisms of SNHG1 in glioma were also investigated using immunohistochemistry staining, Western blotting, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and RNA pulldown. Cell Counting Kit-8, transwell assays, and flow cytometry were used to investigate malignant biological behaviors.

Results

We have elucidated the potential molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA SNHG1 regulating the malignant behavior of glioma cells by binding to microRNA-154-5p or miR-376b-3p. Moreover, our deep-going results showed that FOXP2 existed as a direct downstream target of both microRNA-154-5p and miR-376b-3p; FOXP2 increased promoter activities and enhanced the expression of the oncogenic gene KDM5B; and KDM5B also acts as a RNA-binding protein to maintain the stability of SNHG1.

Conclusion

Collectively, this study demonstrates that the SNHG1- microRNA-154-5p/miR-376b-3p- FOXP2- KDM5B feedback loop plays a pivotal role in regulating the malignant behavior of glioma cells.

Project description:PurposeChoroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a common pathological change of various ocular diseases that causes serious damage to central vision. Accumulated evidence shows that microRNAs (miRNAs) are closely related with the regulation of endothelial metabolism, which plays crucial roles in angiogenesis. Here, we investigate the molecular mechanism underlying the regulation of endothelial glutamine metabolism by miR-376b-3p in the progression of CNV.MethodsHuman retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) were transfected with control or miR-376b-3p mimics, and the expression of glutaminase 1 (GLS1), a rate-limiting enzyme in glutaminolysis, was detected by real-time PCR or Western blotting. The biological function and glutamine metabolism of transfected HRMECs were measured by related kits. Luciferase reporter assays were used to validate the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (CEBPB) was a target of miR-376b-3p. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and RNA immunoprecipitation assays were performed to verify the binding of CEBPB on the promoter region of GLS1. Fundus fluorescein angiography and immunofluorescence detected the effect of miR-376b-3p agomir on rat laser-induced CNV.ResultsThe expression of miR-376b-3p was decreased, whereas GLS1 expression was increased in the retinal pigment epithelial-choroidal complexes of rats with CNV. HRMECs transfected with miR-376b-3p mimic showed inhibition of CEBPB, resulting in the inactivation of GLS1 transcription and glutaminolysis. Moreover, the miR-376b-3p mimic inhibited proliferation, migration and tube formation but promoted apoptosis in HRMECs, whereas these effects counteracted by α-ketoglutarate supplementation or transfection with CEBPB overexpression plasmid. Finally, the intravitreal administration of the miR-376b-3p agomir restrained CNV formation.ConclusionsCollectively, miR-376b-3p is a suppressor of glutamine metabolism in endothelial cells that could be expected to become a therapeutic target for the treatment of CNV-related diseases.

Project description:BackgroundAngiogenesis plays a critical role in the progression of glioma. Previous studies have indicated that RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) interact with RNAs and participate in the regulation of the malignant behaviors of tumors. As a type of endogenous non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs (circRNAs) are abnormally expressed in various cancers and are involved in diverse tumorigeneses including angiogenesis.MethodsThe expression levels of FUS, circ_002136, miR-138-5p, SOX13, and SPON2 were determined using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot. Transient cell transfection was performed using the Lipofectamine 3000 reagent. The RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RNA-IP) and the RNA pull-down assays were used to detect the interaction between FUS and circ_002136. The dual-luciferase reporter assay system was performed to detect the binding sites of circ_002136 and miR-138-5p, miR-138-5p and SOX13. The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were used to examine the interactions between transcription factor SOX13 and its target proteins .ResultsWe demonstrated that down-regulation of FUS or circ_002136 dramatically inhibited the viability, migration and tube formation of U87 glioma-exposed endothelial cells (GECs). MiR-138-5p was down-regulated in GECs and circ_002136 functionally targeted miR-138-5p in an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). Inhibition of circ_002136, combined with the restoration of miR-138-5p, robustly reduced the angiogenesis of GECs. As a target gene of miR-138-5p, SOX13 was overexpressed in GECs and was proved to be involved in circ_002136 and miR-138-5p-mediated angiogenesis in gliomas. In addition, we found that SOX13 was directly associated with and activated the SPON2 promoter, thereby up-regulating the expression of SPON2 at the transcriptional level. Knockdown of SPON2 suppressed the angiogenesis in GECs. More important, SOX13 activated the FUS promoter and increased its expression, forming a feedback loop.ConclusionOur data suggests that the feedback loop of FUS/circ_002136/miR-138-5p/SOX13 played a crucial role in the regulation of angiogenesis in glioma. This also provides a potential target and an alternative strategy for combined glioma therapy.

Project description:BackgroundTo investigate the role of microRNA-376b-3p (miR-376b-3p) and regulator of G protein signaling 1 (RGS1) in the proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis of osteosarcoma.MethodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) between tumor and normal tissues from GSE14359 and GSE33382 in the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) dataset were analyzed with GEO2R online. Similarly, differentially expressed miRNAs from GSE70367 were also analyzed with GEO2R. The interaction between the differentially expressed miRNAs and the shared distal metastasis-related DEGs from the two datasets were analyzed using miRWalk and Cytoscape. RGS1 and miR-376-3p were chosen to verify the prediction. RGS1 stably expressing and silencing cells were established based on the MG63 and U2OS cell lines. The targeting of RGS1 with miR-376b-3p was confirmed with Starbase prediction and luciferase reporter assay. Cell proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis were characterized in vitro and in xenograft mice.ResultsA total of 10 up-regulated and 8 down-regulated DEGs were characterized as shared metastasis-related DEGs for GSE14359 and GSE33382. Among these DEGs, RGS1 was targeted with miR-376b-3p, a predicted down-regulated miRNA in GSE70367. High expression of RGS1 predicted proliferation, invasion, metastases, and poor prognosis in osteosarcoma. Overexpression of RGS1 promoted proliferation, invasion, mobility, and stemness in MG63 and U2OS cells, while silencing of RGS1 had the opposite effect in both cell lines. High expression of RGS1 promoted tumor growth in xenograft nude mice. RGS1 was targeted with miR-376b-3p; the addition of miR-376b-3p down-regulated RGS1, and suppressed cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. Meanwhile, sponging of miR-376b-3p had the opposite effect. The suppressive effects of miR-376b-3p could be abolished with RGS1, as cell proliferation, stemness, metastasis, and invasion were all promoted with RGS1 co-transfection in both cell lines.ConclusionsOur study indicated that RGS1 is a tumor-promoting gene in osteosarcoma, which could be inhibited with miR-376b-3p.
