MiRNA 3613-5p and MiRNA 3916 rescued the inhibition of cell migration in CNOT2 depleted MDA-MD-231 cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The CCR4-NOT complex (CNOT) plays an important role in regulating translation repression. Here, silencing of the complex via the transfection of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells with CNOT2 Small interfering RNA (siRNA) decreased the mRNA expression of DiGeorge Syndrome Critical Region 8 (DGCR8) and Dicer.

Methods

Gene expression profiling using an miRNA array was carried out with CNOT2 siRNA treated MDA-MB-231 cells. After transfection with CNOT2 siRNA, qRT-PCR was used to see the level of Dicer and DGCR8. PANTHER pathway analysis was used to see the biological function of microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs).

Results

CNOT2 siRNAs were attenuated the mRNA levels of Dicer and DGCR8. An analysis of miRNAs in CNOT2 silenced MDA-MB-231 cells using miRNA array revealed that 42 miRNAs, including has-miR-7, has-miR-4283, has-miR-10a were significantly upregulated while 47 miRNAs, including has-miR-3916 and has-miR-3613-5p were downregulated following CNOT2 silencing in MDA-MB-231 cells. Also, has-miR-3613-5p and has-miR-3916 rescued the inhibition of migration from CNOT2 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) MDA-MB-231 stable cell lines. PANTHER pathway analysis assigned the miRNAs to multiple processes, including Wnt signaling, angiogenesis, cadherin signaling, inflammation mediated by chemokine and cytokine signaling, integrin signaling, EGF receptor signaling and Huntington's disease.

Conclusions

Together, our findings provide useful target genes for understanding the molecular mechanisms of CNOT2 in breast cancer.

Project description:The receptor tyrosine kinase, anexelekto (Axl) is involved in tumor cell growth, migration and invasion, and has been associated with chemotherapy resistance, which makes it an attractive target for cancer therapy. In total, six Axl-targeted monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and two antibody-drug conjugates have been reported in the last 10 years, which have been shown to have bioactivity in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and migration. The Axl external cell domain (Axl-ECD), consisting of 426 amino acids, has always been used as an antigen in the screening process for all six of these Axl-targeted mAbs. However, the Axl functional domain, which interacts with its natural ligand, growth arrest-specific protein 6 (Gas6), is only a small part of the Axl-ECD. Antibodies targeting the Axl functional domain may efficiently block Gas6-Axl binding and attenuate its downstream signals and activities. To the best of our knowledge, no mAbs targeting the Axl functional domain have been reported. In the present study, a major Axl functional domain interacting with Gas6 was determined using bioinformatics and structural biology methods. In MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell assays, anti-Axl mAbs targeting this relatively specific Axl functional domain almost completely neutralized the stimulation of Gas6 in both Axl phosphorylation and cell migration assays, and showed similar activity to the positive control drug R428 (a small molecular tyrosine kinase inhibitor of Axl currently in phase II clinical trials) in the cell migration assay. Given the important role of Axl in tumor development and chemotherapy resistance, Axl-targeted mAbs could be used to inhibit tumor cells directly, as well as reduce the development of chemotherapy resistance by blocking Axl activity. The application of Axl-targeted mAbs combined with chemotherapy provides a promising treatment strategy for patients with tumors, particularly those with triple-negative breast cancer, for whom no targeted therapy is currently available.
