CircHIPK3 Promotes Metastasis of Gastric Cancer via miR-653-5p/miR-338-3p-NRP1 Axis Under a Long-Term Hypoxic Microenvironment.

ABSTRACT: As a vital feature of the microenvironment, hypoxia, especially long-term hypoxia, is known to promote metastasis and lead to poor prognosis in solid tumors. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) participate in important processes of cell proliferation and metastasis in cancers. However, the contribution of circRNAs to metastasis under long-term hypoxia is obscure. In this study, we aim to explore specific functions of circHIPK3 in long-term hypoxia-promoting metastasis of gastric cancer (GC). The hypoxic resistant gastric cancer (HRGC) cell lines we established previously, which were tolerant to 2% O₂ conditions, were used as the long-term hypoxia model. We found that circHIPK3 was upregulated by HIF-2α in HRGC cells, and circHIPK3 facilitated the migration and invasion ability of HRGC cells. Further investigation proved that circHIPK3 promoted metastasis of HRGC cells directly by interacting with miR-653-5p and miR-338-3p to relieve the suppression of neuropilin 1 (NRP1), resulting in the activation of downstream ERK and AKT pathways. Our study identified oncogene functions of circHIPK3 under a long-term hypoxic microenvironment and the possibility of using circHIPK3 as a potential biomarker of long-term hypoxia in GC. In conclusion, circHIPK3 could promote GC metastasis via the miR-653-5p/miR-338-3p-NRP1 axis under a long-term hypoxic microenvironment.

Project description:Objective:This study was set out to explore the expression and related mechanism of XIST and miR-200a-3p in retinoblastoma (Rb). Patients and Methods:Fifty-four children with Rb who came to our hospital for surgery from January 2018 to September 2019 were collected. In addition, Rb cells and human retinal epithelial cells were purchased. XIST-siRNA (si-XIST), XIST-shRNA (sh-XIST), empty vector plasmid (siRNA-NC), miR-200a-3p-mimics and miR -200a-3p-inhibition were transfected into Y79 cells. The expression of XIST and miR-200a-3p in the samples were determined by qRT-PCR. ?-catenin, cyclin B1, cyclin D1, Bax, Caspase-3, N-cadherin, vimentin, Snail, E-Cadherin and ZO-1 protein levels were measured by WB. MTT, Transwell and flow cytometry were utilized to detect cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis, respectively. Results:XIST was highly expressed while miR-200a-3p was lowly expressed in patients' tissues, and the AUC of both was over 0.8. XIST and miR-200a-3p was related to differentiation degree in Rb patients. Y79 cells were selected for transfection. Compared with the siRNA-NC group, XIST was significantly reduced in the siRNA-XIST group, and it was significantly increased in the shRNA-XIST group (P<0.01). The proliferation capacity of siRNA-XIST group was decreased, while that of shRNA-XIST group was up-regulated. The apoptosis rate of siRNA-XIST group was significantly up-regulated, while that of shRNA-XIST group was decreased (P<0.001). The invasive capacity of siRNA-XIST group was decreased, while that of shRNA-XIST group was up-regulated (P<0.001). Silencing XIST and over-expressed miR-200a-3p could inhibit cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), proliferation, invasion, and promote apoptosis. WB detection showed that Carboplatin + LncRNA XIST intervention group could more significantly inhibit ?-catenin, cyclin B1, cyclin D1, N-cadherin, vimentin, Snail protein, and promote the up-regulation of Bax, Caspase-3, E-Cadherin and ZO-1 expression. Conclusion:Inhibition of XIST expression can up-regulate miR-200a-3p-mediated PI3K-Akt/MAPK-ERK signaling pathway and affect cell EMT, proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis, which is expected to be a potential therapeutic target for Rb.
