Siegesbeckia glabrescens (SG) Makino (Compositae) has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of allergic and inflammatory diseases. In the present study, we examined the effects and molecular mechanism of the ethanol extract of SG on cell proliferation and invasion in p53 wild-type A549 and p53-deficient H1299 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. SG treatment markedly inhibited the proliferation and invasion in both cell lines, independently of p53 expression. The anti-proliferative effect of SG on A549 cells was mediated by the inactivation of Akt and p70S6K as evidenced by treatment with LY294002 and rapamycin, respectively. In addition, anti-invasive activity of SG in A549 cells was found to be associated with the inhibition of p70S6K. In contrast, in H1299 cells the inactivation of p38MAPK appeared to be involved in SG-mediated inhibition of cell proliferation and invasion. Collectively, these findings suggest that SG modulates cellular fates such as proliferation and invasion by differential regulation of signaling pathways, depending on the status of p53 expression in NSCLC, and support the development of SG as a potent therapeutic agent for the treatment of NSCLC.

AbstractTo investigate how long non-coding RNAs DUXAP8 (LncRNA DUXAP8) influence the cell proliferation and invasion of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we detected the expression levels of LncRNA DUXAP8 in lung cancer (LC) tissues, 4 LC-related cell lines (A549, SPC-A1, SK-MES-1 and NCI-H1299) and normal lung tissues via quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Compared with normal lung tissue, LncRNA DUXAP8 was significantly up-regulated in NSCLC, especially in stage III / IV and diameter ≥ 3cm of lung cancer. Among 4 lung cancer cell lines, LncRNA DUXAP8 in A549 cells was the highest (P<0.001). Construction of LncRNA DUXAP8 overexpression and LncRNA DUXAP8 knockout in A549 cell lines was further performed and subsequently injected into nude mice to build an in vivo tumor xenograft model. The results indicated that LncRNA DUXAP8 overexpression significantly promoted the A549 cells’ proliferation, enhanced invasion and induced tumor growth. Conversely, LncRNA DUXAP8 knockout significantly suppressed A549 cells’ proliferation, weakened invasion and inhibited tumor growth. Taken together, our results imply that LncRNA DUXAP8 is a potential regulatory molecular marker in non-small-cell lung cancer.

Background/Aims: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are key regulators in the development and progression of human cancers, however its role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumorigenesis is not well understood. The aim of this study is to identify the expression level of circPVT1 in NSCLC and further investigated its functional relevance with NSCLC progression both in vitro and in vivo. Methods: Quantative real-time PCR was used for the measurement of circPVT1 in NSCLC specimens and cell lines. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis (FISH) assay was used for the identification of sublocation of circPVT1 in NSCLC cells. Bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) were performed to verify the binding of c-Fos at circPVT1 promoter region, and the direct interaction between circPVT1 and miR-125b. Gain- or loss-function assays were performed to evaluate the effects of circPVT1 on cell proliferation and invasion. Western blot and immunohistochemistry assays were performed to detect the protein levels involved in E2F2 pathway. Results: We found that circPVT1 was upregulated in NSCLC specimens and cells. The transcription factor c-Fos binded to the promoter region of circPVT1, resulting in the overexpression of circPVT1 in NSCLC. Knockdown of circPVT1 suppressed NSCLC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and increased apoptosis. In addition, circPVT1 mediated NSCLC progression via the regulation of E2F2 signaling pathway. More importantly, circPVT1 was predominantly abundant in the cytoplasm of NSCLC cells, and circPVT1 could serve as a competing endogenous RNA to regulate E2F2 expression and tumorigenesis in a miR-125b-dependent manner, which is further verified by using an in vivo xenograft model. Conclusion: circPVT1 promotes NSCLC cell growth and invasion, and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for NSCLC patients. Therefore, silence of circPVT1 could be a future direction to develop a novel treatment strategy.

Proliferation And Invasion

BACKGROUND: Long non-coding RNA (lncNRA) forkhead box D3 antisense RNA 1 (FOXD3-AS1) has been proved to promote or suppress the occurrence and development of multiple types of human tumors. However, the function and mechanism of FOXD3-AS1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are scarcely understood. METHODS: qRT-PCR was used for detecting FOXD3-AS1, miR-150 and SRC kinase signaling inhibitor 1 (SRCIN1) mRNA expression in NSCLC tissues, and the relationship between pathological characteristics of NSCLC patients and FOXD3-AS1 expression level was analyzed. With human NSCLC cell lines H1299 and A549 as cell models, CCK-8 and BrdU assays were employed for detecting cancer cell proliferation, and Transwell assay was employed for detecting cell invasion ability. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were used for the verification of the targeting relationshipe between FOXD3-AS1 and miR-150, and Western blot was employed for detecting SRCIN1 protein expression. RESULTS: FOXD3-AS1 expression was significantly reduced in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and low expression of FOXD3-AS1 was closely related to positive lymph node metastasis and relatively high tumor grade. FOXD3-AS1 over-expression inhibited the proliferation and invasion of H1299 cell lines, while its knockdown promoted the proliferation and invasion of A549 cells. Additionally, it was confirmed that FOXD3-AS1 suppressed the expression of miR-150 by targeting it, and up-regulated the expression of SRCIN1. CONCLUSIONS: FOXD3-AS1 indirectly enhances the expression of SRCIN1 by targeting miR-150, thereby inhibiting NSCLC progression.
