Long non-coding RNA DARS-AS1 promotes tumor progression by suppressing PACT-mediated PKR activation

ABSTRACT: Cancer cells evolve various mechanisms to overcome cellular stresses and maintain progression. Protein kinase R (PKR) and its protein activator (PACT) are the initial responders in monitoring diverse stress signals and lead to cell proliferation inhibition and cell apoptosis in consequence. However, the regulation of PACT-PKR pathway in cancer cells is largely unknown. Herein, we identify that the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) aspartyl-tRNA synthetase antisense RNA 1 (DARS-AS1) is directly involved in the inhibition of the PACT-PKR pathway and promotes cancer cell proliferation. Using large-scale CRISPRi functional screening of 971 cancer-associated lncRNAs, we find that DARS-AS1 is associated with significantly enhanced cancer cell proliferation. Accordingly, knocking down DARS-AS1 inhibits cell proliferation of multiple cancer cell lines and promotes cancer cell apoptosis in vitro and significantly reduces tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, DARS-AS1 directly binds to the activator domain of PACT and prevents PACT-PKR interaction, thereby decreasing PKR activation, eIF2α phosphorylation and inhibiting apoptotic cell death. Clinically, DARS-AS1 is broadly expressed across multiple cancers and the increased expression of this lncRNA indicates poor prognosis. This study elucidates the lncRNA DARS-AS1 directed cancer-specific modulation of the PACT-PKR pathway and provides a novel target for cancer prognosis and therapeutic treatment.

Deletion of human tarbp2 reveals cellular microRNA targets and cell cycle function of TRBP

Project description:TRBP has two known functions as Dicer co-factor and PKR inhibitor. However, the role of TRBP in miRNA biogenesis is controversial and its regulation of PKR in mitosis remains unexplored. Here, we generate TRBP KO HeLa cells and find that TRBP depletion alters Dicer processing sites of a subset of miRNAs, but does not affect Dicer stability, miRNA abundance, or Argonaute loading. By generating PACT, another Dicer interactor, and TRBP/PACT double-KO cells, we further show that TRBP and PACT do not functionally compensate each other and that only TRBP contributes to Dicer processing. We also report that TRBP is hyperphosphorylated by JNK in M phase when PKR is activated by cellular dsRNAs. Hyperphosphorylation potentiates the inhibitory activity of TRBP on PKR, suppressing PKR in M-G1 transition. By generating the first human TRBP KO, our study clarifies the role of TRBP and unveils negative feedback regulation of PKR through TRBP phosphorylation. small RNAs of wild type, TRBP knockout, PACT knockout and TRBP/PACT double knockout cells were sequenced by Illumina Miseq.

TM4SF1-AS1 inhibits apoptosis by promoting stress granule formation in cancer cells

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in tumor development, but little is known about their involvement in the early steps of tumorigenesis. To identify lncRNAs dysregulated in precancerous lesions, we analyzed genome-wide trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) to screen for transcriptionally active lncRNA genes in the nontumorous gastric mucosa of patients with gastric cancer (GC) and healthy individuals. We found that H3K4me3 at TM4SF1-AS1 is specifically upregulated in GC patients and that expression of TM4SF1-AS1 is prevalently elevated in primary and cultured GC cells. TM4SF1-AS1 contributes to GC cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo, and its oncogenic function is mediated, at least in part, through interaction with Pur-α and YB-1. Chromatin isolation by RNA purification (ChIRP)-mass spectrometry demonstrated that TM4SF1‑AS1 associates with several stress granule (SG)-related proteins, including G3BP2, RACK1 and DDX3. Notably, TM4SF1-AS1 promotes SG formation and inhibits apoptosis in GC cells by sequestering RACK1, an activator of the stress-responsive MAPK pathway, within SGs. TM4SF1‑AS1-induced SG formation and apoptosis inhibition are dependent on Pur-α and YB-1. These findings suggest TM4SF1-AS1 contributes to tumorigenesis by enhancing SG-mediated stress adaptation.

Breast cancer cell MCF7+CYP1B1-AS1 LC-MS/MS

Project description:Long non-coding Rnas (lncRNAs) can act as oncogenes or tumor suppressors to regulate cancer development. We found that CYP1B1-AS1 was down-regulated in breast cancer tissues and correlated with the prognosis of patients. Lentiviral vectors were used to overexpress CYP1B1-AS1 in MCF7 cells, and the target proteins bound to CYP1B1-AS1 were detected by pulldown assay and mass spectrometry. The function of CYP1B1-AS1 is unknown. Our study revealed the molecular mechanism of CYP1B1-AS1 inhibiting breast cancer proliferation in breast cancer, and provided a new strategy for the treatment of breast cancer targeting lncRNA.

Peste des petits ruminants virus nucleocapsid protein interacts with PACT and induces stress granule to promote viral replication

Project description:Stress granules (SGs) formation is a conserved cellular strategy to reduce stress-related damage regulating cell survival. A Mass spectrometry-based profiling of the interactome of PPRV N protein revealed that PPRV N interacted with PACT to regulate the assembly of SGs. N protein inhibited the interaction between PACT and a PKR inhibitor TRBP through binding to the M1 domain of PACT, which enhanced the interaction between PACT and PKR and thus promoted PKR activation and subsequent eIF2α phosphorylation as well as SGs formation. The regulatory function of N protein was strikingly abrogated in PACT-/- cells. PPRV infection-induced SGs through the PKR/eIF2α pathway are PACT-dependent. The loss of function assay indicated that PPRV-induced SGs were critical for PPRV replication. We concluded that the PPRV N protein manipulates the host PKR/eIF2α/SGs axis to favor virus replication.

Long Noncoding RNA HNF1A-AS1 Regulates Proliferation and Migration in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Cells

Project description:Objectives: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play important roles in the development and progression of cancer. However, functional lncRNAs and their downstream mechanisms are largely unknown in the molecular pathogenesis of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and its progression. Design: lncRNAs that are abnormally upregulated in EACs were identified by RNA-seq analysis, followed by quantitative RT-PCR (qRTPCR) validation using tissues from 31 EAC patients. Cell biological assays in combination with siRNA-mediated knockdown were performed in order to probe the functional relevance of these lncRNAs. Results: We discovered that a lncRNA, HNF1A-AS1, is markedly upregulated in human primary EACs relative to their corresponding normal esophageal tissues (mean fold change 7.2, p<0.01). We further discovered that HNF1A-AS1 knockdown significantly inhibited cell proliferation and anchorage independent growth, suppressed S-phase entry, and inhibited cell migration and invasion in multiple in vitro EAC models (p<0.05). A gene ontological analysis revealed that HNF1A-AS1 knockdown preferentially affected genes that are linked to assembly of chromatin and the nucleosome, a mechanism essential to cell cycle progression. The well-known cancer-related lncRNA, H19, was the gene most markedly inhibited by HNF1A-AS1 knockdown. Consistent to this finding, there was a significant positive correlation between HNF1A-AS1 and H19 expression in primary EACs (p<0.01). In order to identify novel oncogenic lncRNAs in esophageal adenocarcinogenesis, we carried out RNA-seq of a matched NE-BE-EAC tissue pair

Expression data from SKOV3.ip cells by knockdown RAD51-AS1 expression.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) have been shown to play crucial roles in tumorigenesis. Little is known about lncRNA RAD51-AS1 in diseases. Here, we investigated the role of RAD51-AS1 in Epithelial ovarian cancer. Silencing RAD51-AS1 inhibited proliferation through cell cycle arrest and promotion in apoptosis, both in vitro and in vivo. But the mechanism of RAD51-AS1 downstream regulation remains unclear. In order to identify the downstream regulation of RAD51-AS1 in epithelial ovarian cancer, we used antisene oligotides targeting RAD51-AS1 / negative control to transfect Skov3.ip cells. Then, we used microarrays to identified differential expression genes and to look for possible target genes by knockdown RAD51-AS1 expression.

Microarray profiling analysis of circular RNAs expression in bladder cancer [lncRNA profiling]

Project description:Background: Growing evidence has shown the association of long noncoding RNA/microRNA/mRNA is implicated in tumor initiation, development, and progression. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HAND2-AS1 exhibits anti-cancer effects in diverse cancers. However, the knowledge of HAND-AS1 in bladder cancer remains largely unknown. The present study aims to investigate the effects and mechanisms of HAND-AS1 in bladder cancer progression. Methods: The expression of lncRNA was analyzed by RT2 lncRNA PCR Arrays. The differential expressed lncRNAs were further verified by qRT-PCR. The relationship between lncRNA expression and clinical features was evaluated with Spearman correlation test. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis percentage was detected by ANNEXIN V-PI analysis. The promoter activity was illustrated by Luciferase assay, and the change of microRNA and protein was detected by qRT-PCR and western blot, separately. Results: The expression of HAND2-AS1 declined in bladder cancer and correlated with depth of invasion and grades negatively. Restoration of HAND2-AS1 hampered cell growth by provoking cell apoptosis. Furthermore, one of the HAND2-AS1 sponge, miR-146, was found overexpression in bladder cancer tissue and cell lines. Expression of miR-146 related to HAND2-AS1 expression negatively. One of the targeted genes of miR-146, retinoic acid receptor beta (RARB) was downregulated in bladder cancer. In addition, the expression of RARB related to miR-146 negatively. Lost-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were used to identify the mechanisms underlying association of lncRNA HAND2-AS1: miR-146: RARB. miR-146 targeted RARB directly and hindered RARB-mediate apoptosis. However, the hindrance was impaired by HAND2-AS1 notably. Conclusion: HAND2-AS1 diminished miR-146 expression, thereby releasing the suppression of miR-146 on RARB-mediated apoptosis, promoting bladder cancer regression.
