Long Non-Coding RNA Cancer Susceptibility Candidate 9 Regulates the Malignant Biological Behavior of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cells by Targeting miR-497-5p/Wnt3a/β-catenin Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a major kind of head and neck epithelial carcinoma. Increasing evidences reveal that long noncoding RNAs are considered as vital regulators in tumorigenesis and progression. Although previous studies have found that cancer susceptibility candidate 9 (CASC9) highly expresses in NPC, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied. In this study, we found that CASC9 was overexpressed and associated with worse prognosis in NPC. CASC9 knockdown significantly inhibited the cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and enhanced the sensitivity of tumor cells to cisplatin and paclitaxel. Mechanism research confirmed CASC9 regulated the malignant biological behavior of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells by targeting miR-497-5p/Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway. The present study might provide a novel mechanism for tumorigenesis and progression of NPC and contribute to the development of an effective molecular target therapy.

Project description:Dysregulated microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in carcinoma progression, metastasis, and poor prognosis. We demonstrated that in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), transactivated MIR106A-5p promotes a malignant phenotype by functioning as a macroautophagy/autophagy suppressor by targeting BTG3 (BTG anti-proliferation factor 3) and activating autophagy-regulating MAPK signaling. MIR106A-5p expression was markedly increased in NPC cases based on quantitative real-time PCR, miRNA microarray, and TCGA database analysis findings. Moreover, MIR106A-5p was correlated with advanced stage, recurrence, and poor clinical outcomes in NPC patients. In addition to three-dimensional cell culture assays, zebrafish and BALB/c mouse tumor models revealed that overexpressed MIR106A-5p targeted BTG3 and accelerated the NPC malignant phenotype by inhibiting autophagy. BTG3 promoted autophagy, and its expression was correlated with poor prognosis in NPC. Attenuation of autophagy, mediated by the MIR106A-5p-BTG3 axis, occurred because of MAPK pathway activation. MIR106A-5p overexpression in NPC was due to increased transactivation by EGR1 and SOX9. Our findings may lead to novel insights into the pathogenesis of NPC.Abbreviations: ACTB: actin beta; ATG: autophagy-related; ATG5: autophagy related 5; BLI: bioluminescence; BTG3: BTG anti-proliferation factor 3; CASP3: caspase 3; ChIP: chromatin immunoprecipitation; CQ: chloroquine; Ct: threshold cycle; DAPI: 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; DiL: 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate; EBSS: Earle's balanced salt solution; EGR1: early growth response 1; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; GEO: Gene Expression Omnibus; GFP: green fluorescent protein; IF: immunofluorescence; IHC: immunohistochemistry; ISH: in situ hybridization; MAP1LC3B: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; MIR106A-5p: microRNA 106a-5p; miRNAs: microRNAs; MKI67: marker of proliferation ki-67; mRNA: messenger RNA; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; NPC: nasopharyngeal carcinoma; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time PCR; siRNA: small interfering RNA; SOX9: SRY-box transcription factor 9; SQSTM1: sequestosome 1; TCGA: The Cancer Genome Atlas; WB: western blot.
