Nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most frequent malignancies worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) play critical roles in cancer initiation and progression. Previous studies have demonstrated that overexpression of cytoskeleton regulator RNA (CYTOR) predicates poor prognosis and promotes tumor progression. However, the functional roles and underlying mechanism of CYTOR in NSCLC remain unknown. In the present study, we found that CYTOR promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability, and induced radioresistance in NSCLC cells. Mechanistically, CYTOR could directly interact with miR-195 and increase its targets. Thus, CYTOR played an oncogenic role in NSCLC progression through sponging miR-195. Together, our study elucidates the role of CYTOR as a microRNA sponge in NSCLC, and CYTOR may be used as a promising therapeutic target for NSCLC treatment.

Abstract Background Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Distant metastasis is thought to be one of the most important factors responsible for the failure of NSCLC therapy. MicroRNA-7-5p (miR-7-5p) has been demonstrated to be a tumor suppressor in breast cancer, hepatocarcinoma, prostate cancer and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). However, its role in NSCLC is still not fully understood. This study evaluated the role of miR-7-5p in the progression of NSCLC and explored the underlying mechanism. Materials & methods The quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), MTT, migration and invasion assays were used to evaluate the effects of miR-7-5p on the proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 and SPCA-1 cells. A tumor xenograft model was created to determine the effects of miR-7-5p on metastasis in vivo. The dual-luciferase reporter gene, neuro-oncological ventral antigen 2 (NOVA2) overexpression and western blotting assays were performed to explore the underlying mechanism. Results MiR-7-5p is downregulated in NSCLC tissues and lung cancer cell lines. It suppresses proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT marker expression in vitro and in vivo. Further study showed that miR-7-5p suppresses tumor metastasis of NSCLC by targeting NOVA2. Overexpression of NOVA2 attenuates the miR-7-5p-mediated inhibitory effect on lung cancer cells. Conclusion MiR-7-5p suppresses NSCLC metastasis. Targeting miR-7-5p may contribute to the success of NSCLC therapy.

Abstract Background Accumulating evidence demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play pivotal regulatory roles in the pathology of cancers. Disclosing the roles and molecular mechanisms of circRNAs in tumorigenesis and development is essential to identify novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets. In this study, we explored the role of circVAPA in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression and its associated mechanism. Methods The expression level of RNA was analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Cell proliferation was assessed by MTT assay and colony-forming assay. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Cell migration and invasion were assessed by transwell assays. Dual-luciferase reporter, RNA pull-down, and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays were used to test the intermolecular interactions. The role of circVAPA was assessed in vivo. And xenograft tumor tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Results CircVAPA expression was upregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and a high level of circVAPA was associated with a poor prognosis of NSCLC patients. CircVAPA silencing suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion and induced the apoptosis of NSCLC cells. CircVAPA served as a molecular sponge for microRNA-342-3p (miR-342-3p). miR-342-3p interference largely reversed circVAPA knockdown-mediated anti-tumor effects in NSCLC cells. Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2) was a target of miR-342-3p, and miR-342-3p overexpression suppressed the malignant behaviors of NSCLC cells largely by downregulating ZEB2. CircVAPA silence repressed xenograft tumor growth in vivo, and IHC assay confirmed that circVAPA silence restrained the proliferation and metastasis but induced the apoptosis of NSCLC cells in vivo. Conclusion CircVAPA contributes to the progression of NSCLC by binding to miR-342-3p to upregulate ZEB2. CircVAPA/miR-342-3p/ZEB2 axis might be a novel potential target for NSCLC treatment.
