LncRNA HCG11 suppresses human osteosarcoma growth through upregulating p27 Kip1.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignant bone cancer threatening children and young adults. Emerging evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in the progression of OS. Herein, we want to clarify the roles of lncRNA human leukocyte antigen complex group 11 (HCG11) in OS. Our data revealed that HCG11 expression is decreased in OS, which is a result of transcriptional repression of YY1. Low HCG11 level is closely associated with larger tumor size and shorter overall survival of OS patients. HCG11 negatively regulates cell proliferation, cell cycle, DNA replication in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. HCG11 can raise p27 Kip1 expression via binding to miR-942-5p and IGF2BP2, and p27 Kip1 acts as a key effector for HCG11 exerting biological functions. In conclusion, HCG11 is downregulated in OS, and restrains OS growth both in vitro and in vivo by raising p27 Kip1 expression via binding to miR-942-5p and IGF2BP2.

Project description:BackgroundExcessive growth of keratinocytes is the critical event in the etiology of psoriasis. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of psoriatic keratinocyte hyperproliferation is still unclear.ObjectiveThis study aimed to figure out the potential contributory role of S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (SKP2) in promoting the hyperproliferation of keratinocytes in psoriasis.MethodsWe analyzed microarray data (GSE41662) to investigate the gene expression of SKP2 in psoriatic lesion skins compared with their adjacent non-lesional skin. Then, we further confirmed the mRNA and protein expression of SKP2 in human psoriatic skin tissues, imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriatic mice back skins and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-6-stimulated keratinocytes by using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot (WB). Furthermore, we explored the potential pathogenic role and its underlying cellular mechanism of SKP2 in promoting keratinocytes hyperproliferation through 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, cell cycle detection, 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine staining and WB. Finally, we determined whether inhibition of SKP2 can effectively alleviate the keratinocytes hyperproliferation in vivo.ResultsWe identified that SKP2 is aberrantly upregulated in the psoriatic lesion skin and cytokines-stimulated keratinocytes. Moreover, upregulated SKP2 augments cytokines-induced keratinocytes hyperproliferation. Mechanistically, enhanced SKP2 increased the S phase ratio through inhibiting Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor p27 (P27 Kip1) expression. Correspondingly, suppression of SKP2 with SMIP004 can significantly ease the epidermis hyperplasia in vivo.ConclusionOur results suggest that elevated SKP2 can empower keratinocytes proliferation and psoriasis-like epidermis hyperplasia via downregulation of P27 Kip1. Therefore, targeting SKP2-P27 Kip1 axis might be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of psoriasis in future.
