Tumor-derived exosomal circRNA_102481 contributes to EGFR-TKIs resistance via the miR-30a-5p/ROR1 axis in non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Exosomes are messengers for intercellular communication and signal transduction. Circular RNA (circRNA) abnormal expression and regulation are involved in the occurrence and development of a variety of tumors. In the present study, exosomes in the serum of five patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were isolated before and after EGFR-TKIs resistance, and the circRNA expression profile was screened using a circRNA microarray. The effects of the exosome circRNA_102481 on cell proliferation and apoptosis were analyzed. The interaction between miR-30a-5p and circRNA_102481 or ROR1 was predicted by starBase software, and was confirmed by RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase reporter assays. The results showed that exosomes containing circRNA_102481 were significantly up-regulated in NSCLC with EGFR-TKIs resistance (p<0.05), and that circRNA_102481 was mainly secreted by EGFR-TKIs resistance cell via exosomes (p<0.05). Both circRNA_102481 silencing and si-circRNA_102481 transported by exosomes could inhibit EGFR-TKIs resistance cell proliferation and promote cell apoptosis and circRNA_102481 overexpression could promote EGFR-TKIs sensitive cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis in vitro (p<0.05). CircRNA_102481 served as a miR-30a-5p sponge to regulate ROR1 expression (p<0.05). Furthermore, the expression of circRNA_102481 in exosomes was associated with TNM stage, tumor differentiation status, brain metastasis, and PFS and OS duration. Therefore, it was concluded that tumor-derived exosomal circRNA_ 102481 could contribute to EGFR-TKIs resistance via the microRNA-30a-5p/ROR1 axis in NSCLC. Exosomal circRNA_102481 may serve as a novel diagnostic biomarker and a therapeutic target for EGFR-TKIs resistance in NSCLC.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNA) play important roles in multiple types of cancers. We addressed the role of LINC02535 by regulating the miR-30a-5p /GalNAc Transferase 3 (GALNT3) axis to promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database screened differentially expressed lncRNAs. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis (qRT-PCR) confirmed that LINC02535 is highly expressed in LUAD tissues and cells. In vitro experiments showed that LINC02535 promotes the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells. A xenograft mouse model was used to show that LINC02535 promotes tumor growth in vivo. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and Dual-luciferase reporter assay results confirmed that LINC02535 targets miR-30a-5p. The Vicia villosa lectin (VVA) pull-down assay indicated that MUC1 is the glycosylation target of GALNT3, and western blot verified that NF-κB is the downstream signaling pathway of MUC1. We found that LINC02535 was increased in LUAD tissues and cells, and LINC02535 was correlated with the poor prognosis of LUAD patients. miR-30a-5p acts as a tumor suppressor in LUAD by targeting GALNT3. We also demonstrated that LINC02535 might function as the sponge of miR-30a-5p to up-regulate GALNT3, and consequently promote the proliferation and metastasis of LUAD. LINC02535 acts as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to interact with miR-30a-5p, thereby upregulating the expression of GALNT3, enhancing the function of MUC1, and activating the NF-κB signaling pathway, promoting the malignant progression of LUAD cells.Abbreviations: LncRNA:long non-coding RNA; LUAD: lung adenocarcinoma; TCGA: The Cancer Genome Atlas; GALNT3: GalNAc Transferase 3; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time PCR analysis; RIP: RNA immunoprecipitation; SPF: specific pathogen-free; VVA: Vicia villosa lectin; ceRNA: competing endogenous RNA; MiRNAs: microRNAs; FBS: fetal bovine serum; PBS: Phosphate buffered saline; CCK-8: Cell Counting Kit-8; NSCLC: non-small cell lung cancer; OC: ovarian cancer; HCC: hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundPrimary nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a common disease of the urinary system with an unclear pathogenesis. We aimed to detect the levels of urinary exosomal miR-23b-3p, miR-30a-5p, and miR-151-3p in children with primary NS, and to explore their diagnostic value for NS.MethodsA total of 115 patients with NS who were admitted to the hospital from June 2017 to June 2019 were selected as the observation group. According to the disease progression, they were divided into an active group (acute active phase, n=68) and remission group (remission phase, n=47). In all, 50 healthy children were selected as the control group. Levels of urinary exosomal miR-23b-3p, miR-30a-5p, and miR-151-3p of each group in different periods were detected.ResultsThe 24-h urine protein, serum albumin (ALB), and serum total cholesterol (TC) levels were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05), while those in the active group were significantly higher than those in the remission group (P<0.05). The levels of miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group, and significantly higher in the active group than in the remission group (P<0.05). No miR-151-3p was detected in the urinary exosomes of the two groups. After treatment, levels of exosomal miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p in the two groups both decreased significantly (P<0.05). Results of receiver operating curve (ROC) curve analysis showed that urinary exosomal miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p can be used to identify children with NS and healthy children. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.711 for miR-23b-3p and 0.844 for miR-30a-5p.ConclusionsThe levels of miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p in urinary exosomes of children with NS were significantly higher than those in healthy children, and decreased significantly after treatment, indicating that miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p in urinary exosomes are potential indicators for diagnosing the progression of NS and monitoring the treatment effect.

Project description:HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma) is a major health threat for the Chinese population and has poor prognosis because of strong resistance to chemotherapy in patients. For instance, a considerable challenge for the treatment of HCC is sorafenib resistance. The aberrant glucose metabolism in cancer cells aerobic glycolysis is associated with resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. Drug-resistance cells and tumors were exposed to sorafenib to establish sorafenib-resistance cell lines and tumors. Western blotting and real-time PCR or IHC staining were used to analyze the level of CLCF1 in the sorafenib resistance cell lines or tumors. The aerobic glycolysis was analyzed by ECAR assay. The mechanism mediating the high expression of CLCF1 in sorafenib-resistant cells and its relationships with miR-130-5p was determined by bioinformatic analysis, dual luciferase reporter assays, real-time PCR, and western blotting. The in vivo effect was evaluated by xenografted with nude mice. The relation of CLCF1 and miR-30a-5p was determined in patients' samples. In this study, we report the relationship between sorafenib resistance and increased glycolysis in HCC cells. We also show the vital role of CLCF1 in promoting glycolysis by activating PI3K/AKT signaling and its downstream genes, thus participating in glycolysis in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells. Furthermore, we also show that miR-30a-5p directly targets CLCF1 and that sorafenib-mediated suppression of miR-30a-5p results in the upregulation of CLCF1 in HCC cells resistant to sorafenib. We also found that when a cholesterol modified agomiR-30a-5p was delivered systemically to mice harboring sorafenib-resistant HCC tumors, tumor growth decreased significantly. There is an uncharacterized mechanism of biochemical resistance to hormone therapies orchestrated by the miR-30a-5p/CLCF1 axis to mediate sorafenib resistance and aerobic glycolysis in HCC. Therefore, this study indicates that targeting the miR-30a-5p/CLCF1 axis may hold promise for therapeutic intervention in HCC sorafenib resistance patients.
