Circular RNA hsa_circ_0119412 contributes to tumorigenesis of gastric cancer via the regulation of the <i>miR-1298-5p</i>/zinc finger BED-type containing 3 (ZBED3) axis
No full textCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are associated with the progression of gastric cancer (GC). This study investigates the regulation of the circular RNA, hsa_circ_0119412 in GC and its effects on GC cells. The expression of hsa_circ_0119412, microRNA (miR)-1298-5p, and zinc finger BED-type containing 3 (ZBED3) were measured by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting. The cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, transwell, and animal assays were performed to identify the roles of hsa_circ_0119412, miR-1298-5p, and ZBED3 in the viability, apoptosis, invasion, and growth of GC cells. The relationship between hsa_circ_0119412, miR-1298-5p, and ZBED3 was confirmed by luciferase, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and RNA pull-down assays. Our data revealed that hsa_circ_0119412 and ZBED3 expression was upregulated in GC, while miR-1298-5p expression was downregulated. Both the knockdown of hsa_circ_0119412/ZBED3 and miR-1298-5p overexpression inhibited GC cell growth and invasion, and enhanced cell apoptosis, while miR-1298-5p interference or ZBED3 overexpression showed the opposite trend. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0119412 sponges miR-1298-5p, which regulates ZBED3 expression. Silencing hsa_circ_0119412 inhibits the progression of GC, at least in part, by targeting the miR-1298-5p/ZBED3 axis.</p

LncRNA OSER1-AS1 regulates the inflammation and apoptosis of rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast like synoviocytes via regulating miR-1298-5p/E2F1 axis
No full textIt has been reported that long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) take part in the progression and occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The current work aimed to dig the effect of lncRNA OSER1-AS1 on RA and the associated mechanism. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was made to decide that OSER1-AS1 was significantly lowly expressed in synovial tissue and serum of RA patients, which was consistent in RA-FLSs cell lines. The result of ROC curve indicated that OSER1-AS1 could be a diagnostic biomarker for RA patients. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay (CCK-8), EdU staining and flow cytometry were performed to explore the effect of OSER1-AS1 on RA-FLSs in vitro. Relative levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), matrix metalloproteinases-3 (MMP-3) were detected by ELISA and the result displayed that overexpression of OSER1-AS1 inhibited RA-induced inflammatory production of IL-1, IL-6 and MMP3. Bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter, RNA immunoprecipitation assays (RIP) and RNA pull-down assay were conducted to confirm the binding between microRNA-1298-5p (miR-1298-5p) and OSER1-AS1 or E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1). Mechanistically, OSER1-AS1 serves as a competing endogenous (ceRNA) in RA-FLSs through the sponge of miR-1298-5p and increase in the expression of E2F1. Further restoration experiments revealed that miR-1298-5p mimics and E2F1 silencing could partially reverse the inhibiting effect of OSER1-AS1 overexpression on propagation and apoptosis in RA-FLSs. The results illustrated the biological mechanism of OSER1-AS1/miR-1298-59/E2F1 axis in RA progression. The outcomes indicated that OSER1-AS1 might be adopted as a hopeful diagnostic and therapeutic objective for RA.</p

MicroRNA-1298-5p inhibits cell proliferation and invasion of bladder cancer via downregulating connexin 43
Get PDFMicroRNA (miR)-1298 is widely down-regulated in a variety of malignant tumors, which facilitates cell proliferation, invasiveness, and migration. However, the specific biological function of miR-1298 in bladder cancer (BC) is still unknown. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is often up-regulated in tumors. Identifying miRNAs that target Cx43 in the setting of BC will help to develop Cx43-based therapies for BC. In this study, the results demonstrated that the expression levels of miR-1298 and Cx43 were significantly down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, in BC tissues. Overexpression of miR-1298 inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasiveness in two BC cell lines as determined using MTT assays, cell cycle assays, colony formation assays, Transwell assays, gelatin zymography, and Western blot. In addition, we found that miR-1298 decreased Cx43 expression by directly targeting the 3′-UTR. Further, we observed that the promotion of BC cell proliferation, migration, and invasiveness from Cx43 on could be partially attenuated by overexpressing miR-1298. Moreover, the protein expression of p-ERK was ameliorated after transfection with overexpressed-miR-1298. Knockdown of Cx43 reversed the promotion of cell migration and invasiveness due to decreased expression of miR-1298. All of the data from our study indicate that miR-1298 could be a diagnostic marker of BC and a potential therapeutic agent via inhibiting Cx43.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.
