LINC00630 promotes cholangiocarcinoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion by mediating the miR-199a/FGF7 axis.

ABSTRACT: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a type of cancer with a relatively low morbidity, but poor prognosis. Aberrant long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression has been observed in the pathological development of CCA. In the present study, lncRNA long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 630 (LINC00630) was found to be significantly upregulated in CCA tissues and cultured cells. LINC00630 expression was positively associated with histological differentiation, TNM stage and lymph node invasion. Short hairpin RNA (sh)-LINC00630 transfection could effectively decrease CCA cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Further investigations found that LINC00630 could interact with microRNA (miR)-199a, which specifically targeted fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7) for degradation. FGF7 overexpression restored the sh-LINC00630 transfection-induced decrease in CCA cell proliferation, migration and invasion. In conclusion, LINC00630 significantly promoted CCA cell proliferation, migration and invasion by upregulating FGF7 through miR-199a sponging.

Project description:BackgroundFollicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) is the second most common cancer of the thyroid and easily develops into distant metastasis. PD-L1 is known to be associated with the carcinogenesis and progression of thyroid carcinoma. Our study aimed to investigate the biological functions of PD-L1 and to identify miRNAs that were responsible for modulating the activity of PD-L1.MethodsA total of 72 patients with FTC at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University were enrolled in this retrospective study. Immunohistochemical (IHC) assay was used to measure PD-L1 expression in FTC. The association between PD-L1 expression and clinicopathologic characteristics was evaluated. Bioinformatics analysis, RT-qPCR and western blotting were used to examine the relationships between miR-199a-5p, PD-L1 and Claudin-1. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were evaluated by using CCK8 and Transwell migration and invasion assays. Target prediction and luciferase reporter assays were performed to verify the binding between miR-199a-5p and PD-L1. Rescue assay was performed to confirm whether PD-L1 downregulation abolished the inhibitory effect of miR-199a-5p.ResultsAmong 72 pairs of tumor and normal specimens, the proportion of PD-L1 positive samples was higher in FTC tissues than in normal tissues. The results of ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT illustrated that there was a positive correlation between PD-L1 expression and immune infiltration, especially regulatory T cells and M1 macrophages. Prediction of immunotherapy revealed that patients with high PD-L1 expression might benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors. Transwell migration and invasion assays showed that PD-L1 downregulation in FTC cells could significantly inhibit cell migration and invasion. The bioinformatics analysis and luciferase activity results indicated that PD-L1 was a potential target of miR-199a-5p. Knockdown of PD-L1 reversed the miR-199a-5p inhibitor mediated promotion effect. In addition, we found that PD-L1 expression was positively correlated with Claudin-1 expression and that miR-199a-5p affected the progression of FTC cells through the negative regulation of PD-L1 and Claudin-1.ConclusionsOur study revealed that PD-L1 expression was elevated in FTC and was closely associated with tumor aggressiveness and progression. MiR-199a-5p has a functional role in the progression and metastasis of FTC by regulating PD-L1 and Claudin-1 expression.
