Long non-coding RNA HOXA11-AS knockout inhibits proliferation and overcomes drug resistance in ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT: In ovarian carcinogenesis and progression, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to have a role, although the underlying processes remain a mystery. By modulating the degree of autophagy in ovarian cancer cells, we sought to learn more about the function lncRNA HOXA11-AS plays in the development of ovarian cancer. The expression of HOXA11-AS in ovarian normal cells and ovarian cancer cell lines was measured using R package and qRT-PCR. Ovarian cancer cells expressed HOXA11-AS substantially higher than normal cells, while cisplatin-resistant cells expressed HOXA11-AS significantly higher than ovarian cancer cells. Next, we studied the prognostic data of HOXA11-AS in ovarian cancer in the Tissue Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). In the next step, lentiviral transfection of ovarian cancer cells A2780, OVCAR3, and A2780/DDP (cisplatin-resistant) were performed, and HOXA11-AS knockdown was found to significantly inhibit cell viability, migration, and invasion of A2780 and OVCAR3 cells, and promote apoptosis by CCK-8 assay, transwell assay, cell cycle, and apoptosis assay, and promoted the sensitivity of A2780/DDP cells to cisplatin. It has been shown by the western blot test that HOXA11-AS knockdown increases the amount of cellular autophagy in cells. In contrast, adding the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (3-MA) to HOXA11-AS cells knocked down in vivo reduced its anti-tumor properties. As a whole, this study found that HOXA11-AS knockdown increased the expression of autophagy-related proteins and improved cisplatin sensitivity, decreased ovarian cancer cell proliferation, and promoted cell apoptosis. This study provides new insights into the role of HOXA11-AS in ovarian cancer regulation.

Project description:Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 9 antisense RNA 2 (ADAMTS9-AS2) is involved in various types of cancer, such as ovarian cancer, lung cancer and clear cell renal cell carcinoma. However, the roles of ADAMTS9-AS2 in liver cancer are not completely understood. The present study aimed to determine the functional role of ADAMTS9-AS2 in human liver cancer and investigate the potential underlying molecular mechanisms. The expression levels of ADAMTS9-AS2 and ADAMTS9 were determined following ADAMTS9-AS2 overexpression and knockdown. The results indicated that ADAMTS9-AS2 overexpression and knockdown increased and decreased ADAMTS9 mRNA and protein expression levels, respectively, indicating that alterations in ADAMTS9 expression corresponded with ADAMTS9-AS2 expression. Subsequently, the effects of ADAMTS9-AS2 on liver cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion were analyzed by performing Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing and Transwell assays, respectively. The results demonstrated that ADAMTS9-AS2 inhibited liver cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Finally, the effect of ADAMTS9 on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway-associated proteins [AKT, phosphorylated-AKT, phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit β (PIK3CB), mTOR and phosphorylated-mTOR], several key autophagy-related proteins [light chain 3-I/II (LC3-I/II), beclin 1 (BECN1) and sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1)] and apoptosis-related proteins (Bax and Bcl-2) was detected via western blotting. The results suggested that ADAMTS9-AS2 downregulated the phosphorylation of AKT and mTOR, the protein expression level of PIK3CB, as well as the expression levels of autophagy protein SQSTM1 and antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2. By contrast, ADAMTS9-AS2 upregulated the expression levels of autophagy proteins LC3-II and BECN1, and the proapoptotic protein Bax. Collectively, ADAMTS9-AS2 inhibited liver cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion via inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. The present study provided a novel insight into the role of ADAMTS9-AS2 in liver cancer.
