Long noncoding RNA CCAL has been reported to promote tumor progression in various human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma, osteosarcoma, and colorectal cancer. However, the role of CCAL in papillary thyroid cancer remains largely unknown. In the present study, we found that the expression of CCAL was upregulated in papillary thyroid tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. Moreover, the expression of CCAL was positively related with papillary thyroid cancer severity and TNM stage and predicated poor prognosis. Besides, we found that knockdown of CCAL significantly inhibited papillary thyroid cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro and reduced tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. We found that knockdown of CCAL dramatically decreased the expression of NOTCH1 and suppressed the activation of the NOTCH1 signaling pathway. Furthermore, overexpression of NOTCH1 rescued the proliferation, migration, and invasion in papillary thyroid cancer cells. Taken together, our data indicated that CCAL promoted papillary thyroid cancer development and progression by activation of the NOTCH1 pathway, which provided a new insight on the design of therapeutic targets.

Purpose. The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is increasing, and traditional diagnostic methods are unsatisfactory. Therefore, identifying novel prognostic markers is very important. ciRS-7 has been found to play an important role in many cancers, but its role in PTC has not been reported. This study was performed to evaluate the biological role and mechanism of ciRS-7 in PTC. Material and Methods. The expression of ciRS-7 in PTC tissues and the matched adjacent tissues was determined by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The PTC cell lines (TPC-1 and BCPAP) were used to evaluate the role of ciRS-7. ciRS-7-siRNA and overexpression plasmid were constructed and transfected into PTC cells. A CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay were performed to explore the effects of ciRS-7 on cell proliferation. Annexin V/PI staining and FACS detection were used to detect cell apoptosis. Wound healing assay was performed to detect cell migration. A transwell assay was conducted to explore the effects of ciRS-7 on invasion and migration. Western blotting was performed to evaluate protein expression. The luciferase reporter system was used to determine the underlying mechanism of miR-7. Result. ciRS-7 was highly expressed in PTC tissues and cell lines compared with the corresponding controls. In vitro study showed that ciRS-7 silencing suppressed proliferation, migration, and invasion of TPC-1 and BCPAP. Mechanistically, the effects of ciRS-7 on invasion and migration may be related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). ciRS-7 silencing could attenuate effects on PTC cells induced by miR-7 knockdown. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which was demonstrated to be a target of miR-7, decreased significantly in ciRS-7-siRNA PTC cells. Overexpression of EGFR also attenuated effects of PTC cells induced by silencing ciRS-7. Conclusion. ciRS-7 was significantly upregulated in PTC tissues, and it promoted the progression of PTC by regulating the miR-7/EGFR axis. ciRS-7 is a promising prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in PTC.

Abstract Background Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of cancer of the endocrine system. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as a novel class of gene expression regulators associated with tumorigenesis. Through preexisting databases available for differentially expressed lncRNAs in PTC, we uncovered that lncRNA OIP5-AS1 was significantly upregulated in PTC tissues. However, the function and the underlying mechanism of OIP5-AS1 in PTC are poorly understood. Methods Expression of lncRNA OIP5-AS1 and miR-98 in PTC tissue and cells were measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). And expression of METTL14 and ADAMTS8 in PTC tissue and cells were measured by qRT-PCR and western blot. The biological functions of METTL14, OIP5-AS1, and ADAMTS8 were examined using MTT, colony formation, transwell, and wound healing assays in PTC cells. The relationship between METTL14 and OIP5-AS1 were evaluated using RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull down assay. And the relationship between miR-98 and ADAMTS8 were examined by luciferase reporter assay. For in vivo experiments, a xenograft model was used to investigate the effects of OIP5-AS1 and ADAMTS8 in PTC. Results Functional validation revealed that OIP5-AS1 overexpression promotes PTC cell proliferation, migration/invasion in vitro and in vivo, while OIP5-AS1 knockdown shows an opposite effect. Mechanistically, OIP5-AS1 acts as a target of miR-98, which activates ADAMTS8. OIP5-AS1 promotes PTC cell progression through miR-98/ADAMTS8 and EGFR, MEK/ERK pathways. Furthermore, RIP and RNA pull down assays identified OIP5-AS1 as the downstream target of METTL14. Overexpression of METTL14 suppresses PTC cell proliferation and migration/invasion through inhibiting OIP5-AS1 expression and regulating EGFR, MEK/ERK pathways. Conclusions Collectively, our findings demonstrate that OIP5-AS1 is a METTL14-regulated lncRNA that plays an important role in PTC progression and offers new insights into the regulatory mechanisms underlying PTC development.
