miR-30c has been acknowledged as a tumor suppressor in various human cancers, such as ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, and prostate cancer. However, the role of miR-30c in glioblastoma (GBM) needs to be investigated.
In our study, we found that the expression of miR-30c was significantly downregulated in GBM tissues and
cell lines. We found that overexpression of miR-30c inhibited cellular proliferation of GBM cells in vitro and
in vivo. More GBM cells were arrested in the G0 phase after miR-30c overexpression. Moreover, we showed
that miR-30c overexpression suppressed the migration and invasion of GBM cells. Mechanistically, we found
that SOX9 was a direct target of miR-30c in GBM cells. Overexpression of miR-30c inhibited the mRNA
and protein levels of SOX9 in GBM cells. Moreover, there was a negative correlation between the expression
of miR-30c and SOX9 in GBM tissues. Finally, we showed that restoration of SOX9 in GBM cells reversed
the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells transfected with miR-30c mimic. Collectively, our
results demonstrated that miR-30c suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells via
targeting SOX9. 相似文献

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been acknowledged as important regulators in various human cancers.
lncRNA MNX1-AS1 has been shown to be an oncogene in epithelial ovarian cancer. However, the function of MNX1-AS1 in glioblastoma (GBM) remains largely unknown. Here we found that the expression of
MNX1-AS1 was significantly upregulated in GBM tissues and cell lines. Knockdown of MNX1-AS1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells. In terms of mechanism, we found that
MNX1-AS1 could bind to miR-4443 in GBM cells. Overexpression of miR-4443 significantly inhibited the
expression of MNX1-AS1 and vice versa. Moreover, there was an inverse correlation between the expression
levels of MNX1-AS1 and miR-4443 in GBM tissues. We found that overexpression of miR-4443 inhibited
the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells. We also showed that inhibition of miR-4443 reversed
the effects of MNX1-AS1 knockdown on GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Taken together, we
found that MNX1-AS1 promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GBM cells through inhibiting
miR-4443. 相似文献

MicroRNA-10b (miR-10b) was recently reported to be dysregulated in some types of cancer and to play a role in invasion and metastasis. However, effects and potential mechanisms of action of miR-10b in the metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have not been explored. In this study, we confirmed that miR-10b is highly expressed in metastatic HCC tissues and in metastatic HCC cell lines by qRT-PCR. Moreover, patients with higher miR-10b expression had significantly poorer overall survival, and high miR-10b expression was an independent predictor of poor prognosis. Inhibition of miR-10b reduced cell migration and invasion in MHCC97H cells, whereas over-expression of miR-10b in HepG2 cells increased cell migration and invasion. Bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assays revealed that miR-10b binds the 3??-UTR of CADM1 mRNA and represses its translation. Western blot and qRT-PCR showed that CADM1 is inhibited by miR-10b over-expression. Silencing of CADM1 resulted in substantially increased cell motility and invasion similar to that observed with over-expression of miR-10b in HepG2 cells. These results suggest that miR-10b may positively regulate the invasion and metastasis of HCC through targeting CADM1. 相似文献

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is by far the most common and most aggressive malignant primary tumor in humans and has poor outcomes despite many advances in treatment using combinations of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Recent studies demonstrate that GBM contains a subpopulation of cancer cells with stem cell characteristics, including self-renewal and multipotentiality, and that these cancer stem cells contribute to disease progression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding regulatory RNA molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes, including stem cell maintenance. An accumulating body of evidence shows that miR-218 may act as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting glioblastoma invasion, migration, proliferation and stemness through its different targets, indicating the great potential and relevance of miR-218 as a novel class of therapeutic target in glioblastoma. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that function as negative gene regulators. Alterations in the expression of miRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis and development of most human malignancies. Recent data indicate that microRNA-21 and microRNA-10b are significantly elevated in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) suggesting their role in the regulation of multiple genes associated with cancer. In this study, U87MG human glioblastoma cells were treated with miRNA inhibitors targeting miR-10b and miR-21, alone or in combination. The results showed that the miR-21 inhibitor additively interacted with miR-10b inhibitor on U87MG cells. The 50% inhibitory concentration values were dramatically decreased in cells treated with the combination of miR-10b and miR-21 inhibitors. Furthermore, inhibitors synergistically combined, enhanced apoptosis significantly and reduced invasion ability assessed by flow cytometry and Transwell migration assay. Thus, the miR-21 inhibitor may interrupt the activity of EGFR pathways, increasing PDCD4 and TPM1 expression and reducing MMP activities, independently of PTEN status. Meanwhile, miR-10b inhibitor reduced by Twist proceeds to inhibit translation of the mRNA encoding HOXD10 leading to the increase of the expression of the well-characterized pro-metastatic gene RHOC. Taken together, these data strongly suggest that a combination of miR-21 inhibitor and miR-10b inhibitor could be an effective therapeutic strategy for controlling the growth of GBM by inhibiting oncogene expression and overexpressing tumor suppressor genes. Moreover, a regulatory strategy based on the combination of miRNA inhibitors may provide insights into the mechanisms of the modulation of signaling genes involved in tumor cell apoptosis and invasiveness. 相似文献

The long noncoding RNA WEE2 antisense RNA 1 (WEE2-AS1) plays an oncogenic role in hepatocellular
carcinoma and triple negative breast cancer progression. In this study, we investigated the expression and roles
of WEE2-AS1 in glioblastoma (GBM). Furthermore, the molecular mechanisms behind the oncogenic actions
of WEE2-AS1 in GBM cells were explored in detail. WEE2-AS1 expression was detected using quantitative
real-time polymerase chain reaction. The roles of WEE2-AS1 in GBM cells were evaluated by the cell counting kit-8 assay, flow cytometric analysis, Transwell cell migration and invasion assays, and tumor xenograft
experiments. WEE2-AS1 expression was evidently enhanced in GBM tissues and cell lines compared with
their normal counterparts. An increased level of WEE2-AS1 was correlated with the average tumor diameter,
Karnofsky Performance Scale score, and shorter overall survival among GBM patients. Functionally, depleted
WEE2-AS1 attenuated GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, promoted cell apoptosis, and
impaired tumor growth in vivo. Mechanistically, WEE2-AS1 functioned as a molecular sponge for microRNA-
520f-3p (miR-520f-3p) and consequently increased specificity protein 1 (SP1) expression in GBM cells. A
series of recovery experiments revealed that the inhibition of miR-520f-3p and upregulation of SP1 could
partially abrogate the influences of WEE2-AS1 downregulation on GBM cells. In conclusion, WEE2-AS1
can adsorb miR-520f-3p to increase endogenous SP1 expression, thereby facilitating the malignancy of GBM.
Therefore, targeting the WEE2-AS1–miR-520f-3p–SP1 pathway might be a promising therapy for the management of GBM in the future. 相似文献

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor and exhibits aggressive and invasive behavior. We previously identified four miRNAs—miR-29b, 494, 193a-3p, and 30e—with enhanced expression in GBM following treatment of ionizing radiation by miRNA microarray analysis. In this study, we found that only miR-29b inhibited tumor cell migration and invasion by reducing MMP-2 activity via phospho-AKT/β-catenin signaling, and stimulated a more epithelial-like morphology. Moreover, miR-29b inhibits angiogenesis by attenuating tube formation and the expression of VEGF and Ang-2, and stemness maintenance in GBM cells, as demonstrated by decreasing neurosphere formation and cancer stem cell marker protein expression. These findings support the anti-tumor properties of miR-29b in human GBM cells. Furthermore, miR-29b expression was inversely proportional to that of BCL2L2 mRNA or protein in various cancer cell types. Interestingly, BCL2L2 mRNA is highly expressed in the mesenchymal type of GBM. To further elucidate the relationship between miR-29b and BCL2L2 in GBM, we performed co-transfection reporter assays and determined that miR-29b downregulates BCL2L2 expression by directly binding its 3′UTR. Finally, we confirmed that BCL2L2 repression is of central importance to miR-29b anti-tumor activity using functional assays to examine cell migration, invasion, angiogenesis, and stemness. From these data, we propose that miR-29b may be a useful therapeutic agent in GBM. 相似文献

Macrophages and monocytes migrate in response to chemotactic cytokines such as monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1/CCL2)
in a variety of tissues including the central nervous system. Overexpression of MCP-1 has been reported in glioblastoma (GBM),
which correlates to prominent macrophage infiltration characterized by this tumor type, but whether MCP-1 receptor is also
expressed by the neoplastic cells remains unclear. Expression of MCP-1 and its receptor, CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2), were
examined in GBM using cDNA microarrays and validated in two independent microarray datasets. We investigated the expression
of the CCR2A isoform in human glioma cell lines and GBM, and found overexpression of CCR2A in most GBM specimens examined
when compared to normal brain tissues. CCR2A is mainly localized in the cytoplasm of neoplastic cells, and pronounced neuronal
cytoplasmic CCR2A immunoreactivity in tumor-infiltrating area was associated with prior chemo/radiation therapy. Glioma cells
ectopically overexpressing CCR2A demonstrated increased migration compared to vector-transfected cells in vitro. Inhibition
of MCP-1 synthesis suppressed migration of CCR2A-overexpressed glioma cells. Our data suggest that CCR2A might be associated
with the pathobiology of GBM such as host response to treatment and tumor cell migration. 相似文献

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent and the most malignant human brain tumor. The expression of receptor tyrosine kinase MET and its ligand hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is strongly increased in GBM, where they promote tumor proliferation, cell survival, migration, invasion and angiogenesis. We used geldanamycins (GAs) (inhibitors of HSP90) in order to block glioblastoma growth and HGF-dependent cell migration and invasion. The effect of GAs on three GBM cell lines was tested and we found their antiproliferative effect on tumor cells. The maximum level of inhibition reached 70%. After treatment with GAs, cells also became apoptotic as determined by Annexin?V-positive staining and activation of the caspase-3 pathway. We examined the expression and activity of the MET?receptor on GBM cell lines and we observed phosphorylation of AKT and MAPK after HGF stimulation by western blot analysis. Since GBM?cells express high level of MET?receptor and were shown to respond to HGF by increased motility we tested if GAs could negatively affect GBM cell movement. In our study, we found that GAs inhibited the chemotaxis of glioblastoma cells toward the hepatocyte growth factor gradient. The GAs also blocked migration of tumor cells through a Matrigel layer in invasion assays. The strongest inhibitory effect was observed for GA and its analog, 17AEP-GA. Based on our results, GAs, particularly 17AEP-GA, could be considered as a new potential agent to treat glioblastoma multiforme. 相似文献

miR-150 has been demonstrated to inhibit tumor progression in various human cancers, including colorectal
cancer, ovarian cancer, and thyroid cancer. However, the role of miR-150 in melanoma remains to be determined. In this study, we found that miR-150 was underexpressed in melanoma tissues and cell lines. Through
transfection of miR-150 mimics, we found that miR-150 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration,
and invasion of melanoma cells. In mechanism, we found that MYB was a target of miR-150 in melanoma
cells. Overexpression of miR-150 significantly inhibited mRNA and protein levels of MYB in melanoma cells.
Moreover, there was an inverse correlation between the expression of miR-150 and MYB in melanoma tissues.
We also showed that MYB was upregulated in melanoma tissues and cell lines. Through functional experiments, we found that restoration of MYB in miR-150-overexpressed melanoma cells rescued the proliferation, migration, and invasion. Therefore, our findings demonstrated that miR-150 suppressed the proliferation,
migration, and invasion of melanoma cell by downregulating MYB. 相似文献

Epigenetic changes, including H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 histone modification, play an important role in carcinogenesis. However, no genome-wide histone modification map has been generated for gliomas. Here, we report a genome-wide map of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 histone modifications for 8 glioma stem cell (GSC) lines, together with the associated gene activation or repression patterns. In addition, we compared the genome-wide histone modification maps of GSC lines to those of astrocytes to identify unique gene activation or repression profiles in GSCs and astrocytes. We also identified a set of bivalent genes, which are genes that are associated with both H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 marks and are poised for action in embryonic stem cells. These bivalent genes are potential targets for inducing differentiation in glioblastoma (GBM) as a therapeutic approach. Finally, we identified SLC17A7 as a bivalent tumor suppressor gene in GBM, as it is down-regulated at both the protein and RNA levels in GBM tissues compared with normal brain tissues, and it inhibits GBM cell proliferation, migration and invasion. 相似文献

The invasive behavior of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells is one of the most important reasons for the poor prognosis of this cancer. For invasion, tumor cells must acquire an ability to digest the extracellular matrix and infiltrate the normal tissue bordering the tumor. Preventing this by altering effector molecules can significantly improve a patient's prognosis. Accumulating evidence suggests that miRNAs are involved in multiple biological functions, including cell invasion, by altering the expression of multiple target genes. The expression levels of miR-218 correlate with the invasive potential of GBM cells. In this study, we found that miR-218 expression was low in glioma tissues, especially in GBM. The data showed an inverse correlation in 60 GBM tissues between the levels of miR-218 and MMP mRNAs (MMP-2, -7 and -9). Additionally, ectopic expression of miR-218 suppressed the invasion of GBM cells whereas inhibition of miR-218 expression enhanced the invasive ability. Numerous members of the MMP family are downstream effectors of the Wnt/LEF1 pathway. Target prediction databases and luciferase data showed that LEF1 is a new direct target of miR-218. Importantly, western blot assays demonstrated that miR-218 can reduce protein levels of LEF1 and MMP-9. We, therefore, hypothesize that miR-218 directly targets LEF1, resulting in reduced synthesis of MMP-9. Results suggest that miR-218 is involved in the invasive behavior of GBM cells and by targeting LEF1 and blocking the invasive axis, miR-218-LEF1-MMPs, it may be useful for developing potential clinical strategies. 相似文献

MET signaling regulates glioblastoma stem cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Joo KM Jin J Kim E Ho Kim K Kim Y Gu Kang B Kang YJ Lathia JD Cheong KH Song PH Kim H Seol HJ Kong DS Lee JI Rich JN Lee J Nam DH 《Cancer research》2012,72(15):3828-3838
Glioblastomas multiforme (GBM) contain highly tumorigenic, self-renewing populations of stem/initiating cells [glioblastoma stem cells (GSC)] that contribute to tumor propagation and treatment resistance. However, our knowledge of the specific signaling pathways that regulate GSCs is limited. The MET tyrosine kinase is known to stimulate the survival, proliferation, and invasion of various cancers including GBM. Here, we identified a distinct fraction of cells expressing a high level of MET in human primary GBM specimens that were preferentially localized in perivascular regions of human GBM biopsy tissues and were found to be highly clonogenic, tumorigenic, and resistant to radiation. Inhibition of MET signaling in GSCs disrupted tumor growth and invasiveness both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that MET activation is required for GSCs. Together, our findings indicate that MET activation in GBM is a functional requisite for the cancer stem cell phenotype and a promising therapeutic target. 相似文献

GBM (Glioblastoma multiforme) is the most prevalent and lethal primary brain tumor. Gene therapy is one of the promising approaches and involves the delivery of genetic therapeutic molecules for specific antitumour response/activity. miRNAs can regulate the cell biology functions including replication, cell growth, and apoptosis by regulating gene expression. In this study, we found that down-regulation of miR-4731 expression occurred in GBM cells. We further determined that miR-4731 behaved as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting GBM cell proliferation. We further investigated the molecular mechanisms of miR-4731 and EGFR, ERK-1,2 and AKT-1,2 in GBM cell lines U87 and U251. The in vitro ectopic expression of miR-4731 affected cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of U87 and U251 cells. Luciferase reporter assays validated that miR-4731 targeted the 3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) of EGFR. In conclusions, we identified that miR-4731 plays a tumor suppressor role in GBM cell proliferation and migration by targeting EGFR expression, and miR-4731 may act as a novel biomarker for early diagnosis or therapeutic target of GBM. 相似文献
