Background and Aim: There are an increasing number of studies indicating the important roles served by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the development of different types of cancer. LINC00460 is a novel identified lncRNA that was found to be upregulated in colorectal cancer. However, the biological roles of LINC00460 in colorectal cancer have yet to be fully elucidated. This study was aimed to investigate the functions and molecular mechanisms of LINC00460 on colorectal cancer metastasis. Methods: Expression of LINC00460 and biglycan (BGN) in colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines were quantified by real time PCR or western blotting assay. Cell migration and invasion assays were performed to determine the effect of LINC00460 on tumor metastasis in vitro. The binding interaction between microRNA-149-5p and LINC00460 was revealed by luciferase reporter assay. Results: In the present study, lncRNA LINC00460 was shown to be upregulated in colorectal cancer tissues, and overexpression of LINC00460 significantly promoted metastasis of colorectal cancer in vitro. Furthermore, miR-149-5p interacted with LINC00460, and they negatively regulated expression of each other. Transfection of miR-149-5p mimics partially counteracted the tumor metastasis-promoting effects induced by LINC00460 overexpression. Finally, overexpression of LINC00460 upregulated the expression levels of biglycan, a target gene of miR-149-5p, which has also been identified as an oncogenic driver in colorectal cancer. Conclusion: Taken together, the present study demonstrated that LINC00460 promoted metastasis of CRC by sponging miR-149-5p and thereby affecting biglycan expression levels.

ObjectiveMicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in cervical cancer development and progression. The purposes of this study were to investigate the role of miR-195 in cervical cancer and clarify the regulation of Smad3 by miR-195.MethodsQuantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to examine miR-195 expression in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines. The clinicopathological significance of miR-195 down-regulation was further analyzed. Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed. A luciferase reporter assay was conducted to confirm the target gene of miR-195, and the results were validated in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines.ResultsMiR-195 was significantly decreased in clinical tissues and cervical cancer cell lines. The low miR-195 level was significantly correlated with higher International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage, node metastasis, and deep stromal invasion. Up-regulation of miR-195 suppressed cell migration and invasion in vitro. Smad3 was verified as a direct target of miR-195, which was further confirmed by the inverse expression of miR-195 and Smad3 in patients’ specimens.ConclusionsThe newly identified miR-195/Smad3 pathway provides an insight into cervical cancer metastasis and may represent a novel therapeutic target.

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancy in the world. It has been reported that cancer stem cells (CSCs) serve as the primary drivers of tumorigenesis and tumor progression. There is an urgent need to explore novel molecules that regulate CSCs or their signatures. Increasing evidence has shown that miRNAs are involved in tumorigenesis and progression. Here, we aim to explore the regulatory effect and mechanism of miR-3065-3p on the stemness of colorectal cancer. Methods The expression of miR-3065-3p in colorectal cancer and the association of miR-3065-3p expression with prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer were analyzed using TCGA dataset or clinical cases. Gain or loss of function in different models, including colorectal cancer cell lines and orthotopic xenograft or liver metastatic mouse model, were used to investigate the effects of miR-3065-3p on colorectal cancer stemness and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Cancer stemness was analyzed by detecting the ability of migration and invasion, NANOG, OCT4, and SOX2 expression, ALDH activity and sphere formation. In addition, the interaction of miR-3065-3p and cytokine receptor-like factor 1 (CRLF1) was analyzed theoretically and identified by the luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, the correlation between CRLF1 expression and miR-3065-3p was analyzed in colorectal cancer tissues. Finally, the effect of CRLF1 on the stemness and metastasis of colorectal cancer in vitro and in vivo was assessed. Results In this report, we found that miR-3065-3p was overexpressed in colorectal cancer and that its high expression was associated with poor prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer. miR-3065-3p promotes the stemness and metastasis of colorectal cancer. Furthermore, CRLF1 was the downstream target of miR-3065-3p and inhibited the stemness of colorectal cancer. In addition, CRLF1 expression was negatively correlated with miR-3065-3p in colorectal cancer tissues. And, CRLF1 mediated the effects of miR-3065-3p on promoting stemness of colorectal cancer cells. Conclusion Our data suggest that miR-3065-3p promoted the stemness and metastasis of colorectal cancer by targeting CRLF1. miR-3065-3p might serve as a promising prognostic marker as well as a therapeutic target for colorectal cancer.

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a novel class of non-coding RNAs, have been confirmed to be key regulators of many diseases. With many scholars devoted to studying the biological function and mechanism of circRNAs, their mysterious veil is gradually being revealed. In our research, we explored a new circRNA, hsa_circ_0026416, which was identified as upregulated in CRC with the largest fold change (logFC = 3.70) of the evaluated circRNAs via analysing expression profiling data by high throughput sequencing of members of the GEO dataset (GSE77661) to explore the molecular mechanisms of CRC. Methods qRT-PCR and western blot analysis were utilized to assess the expression of hsa_circ_0026416, miR-346 and Nuclear Factor I/B (NFIB). CCK-8 and transwell assays were utilized to examine cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro, respectively. A luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the combination of hsa_circ_0026416, miR-346 and NFIB. A nude mouse xenograft model was also utilized to determine the role of hsa_circ_0026416 in CRC cell growth in vivo. Results Hsa_circ_0026416 was markedly upregulated in CRC patient tissues and plasma and was a poor prognosis in CRC patients. In addition, the area under the curve (AUC) of hsa_circ_0026416 (0.767) was greater than the AUC of CEA (0.670), CA19-9 (0.592) and CA72-4 (0.575). Functionally, hsa_circ_0026416 promotes cell proliferation, migration and invasion both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0026416 may function as a ceRNA via competitively absorbing miR-346 to upregulate the expression of NFIB. Conclusions In summary, our findings demonstrate that hsa_circ_0026416 is an oncogene in CRC. Hsa_circ_0026416 promotes the progression of CRC via the miR-346/NFIB axis and may represent a potential biomarker for diagnosis and therapy in CRC.

Abstract Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) termed small nucleolar RNA host gene 22 (SNHG22) has been reported as a crucial regulator in several types of human cancers. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the function and mechanism of SNHG22 in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. Methods: Quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of SNHG22 in adenoma, tumor tissues (TTs), and adjacent nontumorous tissues (ANTs). The biological behaviors of SNHG22 in CRC cell lines were explored both in vitro (CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry, wound scratch, and transwell assays) and in vivo (nude mouse xenograft model). The interaction between SNHG22 and miR-128-3p, and the target genes of miR-128-3p were explored by online tools, qRT-PCR, western blot, and dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results: SNHG22 expression was gradually upregulated in ANTs, adenoma, and TTs. High expression levels of SNHG22 were significantly related to advanced clinicopathological factors and worse survival in patients with CRC. SNHG22 knockdown markedly prohibited CRC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion; and drove cell apoptosis in vitro; and hindered tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistic investigation showed that SNHG22 could bind to microRNA-128-3p (miR-128-3p) and attenuate its inhibitory effects on the expression levels and activity of E2F3. Rescue experiments exhibited that miR-128-3p inhibition or E2F3 upregulation can offset the functions of SNHG22 knockdown in CRC cells. Conclusion: Our findings support the existence of an interactive regulatory network of SNHG22, miR-128-3p, and E2F3 in CRC cell lines, indicating that the SNHG22/miR-128-3p/E2F3 axis is a novel diagnostic and therapeutic target in CRC.

Background/Aims: Metastasis is the primary cause of colorectal cancer (CRC)-related death. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying metastasis in CRC remain unclear. Methods: We evaluated mRNA and protein expression levels by quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR, western blotting, immunofluorescence, tissue microarrays, and immunohistochemistry assays. We also assessed the migration and invasion abilities of CRC cells in vitro by wound healing assays, invasion and migration assays, western blot analysis, and immunofluorescence. Tumor metastasis was evaluated in nude mice in vivo. Results: A positive correlation was observed between the expression patterns of Forkhead box k1 (FOXK1) and Snail in CRC. Luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated that Snail directly bound to and activated the human FOXK1 gene promoter. Moreover, the Snail-FOXK1 axis promote epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT)-mediated CRC cell invasion and metastasis. FOXK1 and Snail expression levels were correlated with tumor progression and served as significant predictors of overall survival in patients with CRC. Furthermore, overexpression of FOXK1 induced the EMT by upregulating the expression of cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (Cyr61). Luciferase assays showed that Cyr61 was a direct transcriptional target of FOXK1. Down regulation of Cyr61 decreased FOXK1-enhanced “CRC cell” migration, invasion, and metastasis. Additionally, FOXK1 expression was positively correlated with Cyr61 expression and was associated with poor prognosis. Conclusions: The Snail/FOXK1/Cyr61 signaling axis regulates the EMT and metastasis of CRC.

Abstract BackgroundMetformin is a commonly used drug for the treatment of diabetes. Accumulating evidence suggests that it exerts anti-cancer effects in many cancers, including colorectal cancer. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of colorectal cancer metastasis remain unclear.MethodsColorectal cancer cell lines were treated with metformin, and cell proliferation, invasion, and migration were analyzed in vitro. The relationship between metformin and the AMPK–mTOR axis was assessed by western blot analysis and transfection with small interfering RNA. A colorectal cancer xenograft mouse model was used to observe the effects of metformin on liver metastasis. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on liver metastatic tumors.ResultsIn in vitro experiments, metformin significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion only in HCT116 and SW837 cells, but not in HCT8 and Lovo cells. Only in HCT116 and SW837, a change in AMPK–mTOR expression was observed in a dose-dependent manner. In colorectal cancer xenograft mice, the liver metastatic rate (10% vs. 50%, p = 0.05) and the number of liver metastatic nodules (0.1/body vs. 1.2/body, p = 0.04) were significantly lower in the metformin group. Tumor proliferation and EMT were decreased and apoptosis was promoted only in metastatic liver tumors of mice treated with metformin.ConclusionThe molecular mechanism of the anti-cancer effects of metformin involves repression of mTOR pathways via AMPK activation. Moreover, the differences in metformin sensitivity depend on the response of the AMPK–mTOR pathway to metformin. Our study provides a theoretical basis for the anti-metastatic treatment of colorectal cancer using metformin.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of death worldwide, and distant metastasis is responsible for the poor prognosis in patients with advanced-stage CRC. RPS24 (ribosomal protein S24) as a ribosomal protein, multiple transcript variant encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Our previous studies have demonstrated that RPS24 is overexpressed in CRC. However, the mechanisms underlying the role of RPS24 in tumor development have not been fully defined. Methods: Expression of RPS24 isoforms and lncRNA MVIH in CRC tissues and cell lines were quantified by real-time PCR or western blotting assay. Endothelial tube formation assay was performed to determine the effect of RPS24 on tumor angiogenesis. The cell viability of HUVEC was determined by MTT assay, and the migration and invasion ability of HUVEC were detected by transwell assay. PGK1 secretion was tested with a specific ELISA kit. Results: Here, we found that RPS24c isoform was a major contributor to tumor angiogenesis, a vital process in tumor growth and metastasis. Real-time PCR revealed that RPS24c isoform was highly expressed in CRC tissues, while other isoforms are present in both normal and CRC tissues with no statistical difference. Moreover the change of RPS24 protein level is mainly due to the fluctuation of RPS24c. Furthermore, we observed that silencing RPS24c could decrease angiogenesis by inhibiting tubule formation, HUVEC cell proliferation and migration. Additionally, we investigated the molecular mechanisms and demonstrated that RPS24c mRNA interacted with lncRNA MVIH, the binding-interaction enhanced the stability of each other, thereby activated angiogenesis by inhibiting the secretion of PGK1. Conclusion: RPS24c facilitates tumor angiogenesis via the RPS24c/MVIH/PGK1 pathway in CRC. RPS24c inhibition may be a novel option for anti-vascular treatment in CRC.

AbstractColorectal cancer is the second common cause of death worldwide. Lamin B2 (LMNB2) is involved in chromatin remodeling and the rupture and reorganization of nuclear membrane during mitosis, which is necessary for eukaryotic cell proliferation. However, the role of LMNB2 in colorectal cancer (CRC) is poorly understood. This study explored the biological functions of LMNB2 in the progression of colorectal cancer and explored the possible molecular mechanisms. We found that LMNB2 was significantly upregulated in primary colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines, compared with paired non-cancerous tissues and normal colorectal epithelium. The high expression of LMNB2 in colorectal cancer tissues is significantly related to the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients and the shorter overall and disease-free cumulative survival. Functional analysis, including CCK8 cell proliferation test, EdU proliferation test, colony formation analysis, nude mouse xenograft, cell cycle, and apoptosis analysis showed that LMNB2 significantly promotes cell proliferation by promoting cell cycle progression in vivo and in vitro. In addition, gene set enrichment analysis, luciferase report analysis, and CHIP analysis showed that LMNB2 promotes cell proliferation by regulating the p21 promoter, whereas LMNB2 has no effect on cell apoptosis. In summary, these findings not only indicate that LMNB2 promotes the proliferation of colorectal cancer by regulating p21-mediated cell cycle progression, but also suggest the potential value of LMNB2 as a clinical prognostic marker and molecular therapy target.

Abstract Background Sevoflurane (Sev), a commonly used volatile anesthetic, has been reported to inhibit the process of colorectal cancer (CRC). Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are revealed to participate in the pathogenesis of CRC. This study aims to reveal the mechanism of hsa_circ_0000231 in Sev-mediated CRC progression. Methods The expression of hsa_circ_0000231 and microRNA-622 (miR-622) was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Protein level was determined by western blot analysis. Cell proliferation was investigated by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), cell colony formation and DNA content quantitation assays. Cell apoptosis was detected by Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide double staining and caspase 3 activity assays. Cell migration and invasion were investigated by wound-healing and transwell invasion assays, respectively. The putative relationship between hsa_circ_0000231 and miR-622 was predicted by circular RNA Interactome online database, and identified by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. The impacts of hsa_circ_0000231 on Sev-mediated tumor formation in vivo were presented by in vivo assay. Results Hsa_circ_0000231 expression was upregulated, while miR-622 was downregulated in CRC tissues and cells compared with control groups. Sev treatment decreased hsa_circ_0000231 expression, but increased miR-622 expression in CRC cells. Sev treatment suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced cell apoptosis. Hsa_circ_0000231 overexpression restored Sev-mediated CRC progression in vitro. Additionally, hsa_circ_0000231 acted as a sponge of miR-622, and miR-622 inhibitors reversed the impacts of hsa_circ_0000231 silencing on CRC process. Furthermore, Sev treatment inhibited tumor growth by regulating hsa_circ_0000231 in vivo. Conclusion Hsa_circ_0000231 attenuated Sev-aroused repression impacts on CRC development by sponging miR-622. This findings may provide an appropriate anesthetic protocol for CRC sufferers undergoing surgery.
