HnRNPA2B1-Mediated Extracellular Vesicles Sorting of miR-122-5p Potentially Promotes Lung Cancer Progression.

ABSTRACT: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by tumor cells play important roles on the remodeling of the tumor-stromal environment and on promoting tumor metastasis. Our earlier studies revealed that miR-122-5p, a type of small non-coding RNA, was dysregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell-derived EVs. In this study, we found that miR-122-5p was selectively sorted and secreted into lung cancer EVs through binding to RNA-binding protein hnRNPA2B1. In addition, we found that hnRNPA2B1 interacted with miR-122-5p through the EXO-motif. The delivering of lung cancer EVs-miR-122-5p promoted the migration of liver cells, which may play roles in establishing a pre-metastatic micro-environment and hepatic metastasis of lung cancer. Importantly, our findings revealed the molecular mechanism t
