Has_circ_0008583 modulates hepatocellular carcinoma progression through the miR-1301-3p/METTL3 pathway.

ABSTRACT: Has_circ_0008583 is reported to be involved in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), while its biological role in HCC remains unclear. Here, the qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of has_circ_0008583. The CCK-8 kit was performed to measure cell proliferation. The cell migration and invasion were evaluated by Transwell. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to confirm the target combination between the genes in has_circ_0008583/miR-1301-3p/METTL3 axis. The in vivo role of has_circ_0008583 was verified by murine xenograft assay. Our data showed that hsa_circ_0008583 was upregulated in HCC tissues and cells. Hsa_circ_0008583 overexpression promoted Hep3B cell proliferation, migration and invasion, but hsa_circ_0008583 silencing had an opposing influence. MiR-1301-3p is directly bound to hsa_circ_0008583 and METTL3. MiR-1301-3p overexpression or METTL3 knockdown could partially counteract hsa_circ_0008583 overexpression-mediated influence on HCC cell behaviors. In addition, hsa_circ_0008583 depletion inhibits HCC tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, hsa_circ_0008583 promotes HCC progression through the miR-1301-3p/METTL3 axis.

Project description:BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are enriched in exosomes and are extremely stable. Exosome-mediated intercellular transfer of specific biologically active circRNA molecules can drive the transformation of the tumor microenvironment and accelerate or inhibit the local spread and multifocal growth of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we explored in depth about the biological roles of HCC cell-derived exosomes and exosome-transported circRNAs on HCC in vivo and in vitro.MethodsExosomes extracted from HCC cells (Huh7 and HA22T) were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle size tracer analysis, and western blotting. Exosomes were observed for endocytosis using fluorescent labeling. The effects of HCC cell-derived exosomes and the circ_002136 they carried on cell growth, metastasis and apoptosis were determined by CCK-8 assay, transwell assay, flow cytometry analysis and TUNEL staining, respectively. The expressions of circ_002136, miR-19a-3p and RAB1A were detected by quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). Targeted binding between miR-19a-3p and circ_002136 or RAB1A was predicted and verified by bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down experiments. The in vivo effect of circ_002136 was determined by constructing a xenograft tumor model.ResultsThe findings revealed that Huh7 and HA22T exosomes conferred enhanced viability as well as invasive ability to recipient HCC cells. Circ_002136 was shown for the first time to be differentially upregulated in HCC tissues and cells and transferred by HCC cell-derived exosomes. More importantly, selective silencing of circ_002136 depleted the malignant biological behaviors of HCC exosome-activated Huh7 and HA22T cells. Depletion of circ_002136 in vivo effectively retarded the growth of HCC xenograft tumors. Furthermore, a well-established circ_002136 ceRNA regulatory network was constructed, namely circ_002136 blocked miR-19a-3p expression, elevated RAB1A expression activity and stimulated HCC development. Finally, high levels of circ_002136 or RAB1A, as well as low levels of miR-19a-3p, negatively affected HCC patient survival.ConclusionThe study on circ_002136 provides good data to support our insight into the mechanism of to-be-silenced circRNA as a therapeutic agent in the progression of HCC.
