Abstract
Maternally expressed gene 3 ( MEG3 ) is a noncoding RNA that is known as a tumor suppressor in solid cancers. Recently, a line of studies has emphasized its potential role in hematological malignancies in terms of tumorigenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance. Similar to solid cancers, MEG3 can regulate various cancer hallmarks via sponging miRNA, transcriptional, or posttranslational regulation mechanisms, but may regulate different key elements. In contrast with solid cancers, in some subtypes of leukemia, MEG3 has been found to be upregulated and oncogenic. In this review, we systematically describe the role and underlying mechanisms of MEG3 in multiple types of hematological malignancies. Particularly, we highlight the role of MEG3 in drug resistance and as a novel therapeutic target.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressing neurodegenerative disease marked by chronic central nervous system inflammation and degeneration.This study investigates gene expression profiles of T-box transcription factor TBX21 (T-bet), interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), and long non-coding RNA MEG3 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from treatment-naïve Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis patients (RRMS), healthy controls, and RRMS patients on different Disease Modifying Therapies (DMTs). The aim is to understand the role of T-bet, IFN-γ, and MEG3 in MS pathogenesis and their potential as diagnostic and therapeutic targets. RESULTS Elevated T-bet expression is observed in treatment-naïve RRMS patients compared to healthy individuals. RRMS patients treated with Interferon beta-1alpha (IFNβ-1a) and fingolimod exhibit downregulated T-bet and MEG3 expression levels, respectively, with more pronounced effects in females. Healthy individuals show a moderate positive correlation between T-bet and MEG3 and between IFN-γ and T-bet. In RRMS patients treated with Glatiramer Acetate (GA), a strong positive correlation is observed between MEG3 and IFN-γ. Remarkably, RRMS patients treated with Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) exhibit a significant positive correlation between T-bet and MEG3. These findings underscore the diagnostic potential of T-bet in RRMS, warranting further exploration of MEG3, T-bet, and IFN-γ interplay in RRMS patients.

[PMID: 37106379 PMCID: PMC10141948 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-023-02670-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-intensity chemotherapy regimens are often used in adult T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) patients. Nevertheless, the response rate remains unsatisfactory due to emergence of chemoresistance. Growing evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in tumor progression and chemoresistance. Herein, we investigated the potential role of lncRNAs in T-LBLs. METHODS RNAseq was used to screen and identify candidate lncRNAs associated with T-LBL progression and chemoresistance. Luciferase reporter assay was used to examine the binding of miR-371b-5p to the 3'UTR of Smad2 and LEF1, and the binding of TCF-4/LEF1 to the promoter of LINC00183. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay was undertaken to analyze the connection between LEF1 and the LINC00183 promoter region. RNA immunoprecipitation assays were used to explore the mechanism whereby LINC00183 regulated miR-371b-5p. MTT and flow cytometry assays were used to measure apoptosis of T-LBL cells. RESULTS LINC00183 was upregulated in T-LBL progression and chemoresistant tissues in both the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center dataset and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University dataset. High expression of LINC00183 was correlated with poorer overall survival and progression-free survival of T-LBL patients compared to those with low expression of LINC00183. Furthermore, miR-371b-5p was negatively regulated by LINC00183. In vivo and in vitro assays showed that LINC00183-mediated T-LBL chemoresistance depended on miR-371b-5p expression. The direct binding of miR-371b-5p to Smad2 and LEF1 was verified by luciferase assays. It was shown that TCF4/LEF1 could bind to the LINC00183 promoter site and increase its transcript level. Downregulation of miR-371b-5p led to increased expression of Smad2/LEF1, and in turn increased LINC00183 expression. Additionally, phospho-Smad2 promotes nuclear translocation of β-catenin, LINC00183 downregulation decreased chemoresistance induced by β-catenin and TGF-β1 in T-LBL cells. CONCLUSION We unraveled a β-catenin-LINC00183-miR-371b-5p-Smad2/LEF1 feedback loop that promotes T-LBL progression and chemoresistance, indicating that LINC00183 may serve as a potential therapeutic target in T-LBLs.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical regulators in various biological processes involved in the hallmarks of cancer. Maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) is lncRNA that regulates target genes through transcription, translation, post-translational modification, and epigenetic regulation. MEG3 has been known as a tumor suppressor, and its downregulation could be found in various cancers. Furthermore, clinical studies revealed that impaired MEG3 expression is associated with poor prognosis and drug resistance. MEG3 exerts its tumor suppressive effect by suppressing various cancer hallmarks and preventing cells from acquiring cancer-specific characteristics; as it could suppress tumor cells proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis; it also could promote tumor cell death and regulate tumor cell metabolic reprogramming. Hence, MEG3 is a potential prognostic marker, and overexpressing MEG3 might become a potential antitumor therapeutic strategy. Herein, we summarize recent knowledge regarding the role of MEG3 in regulating tumor hallmarks as well as the underlying molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we also discuss the clinical importance of MEG3, as well as their potential in tumor prognosis and antitumor therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) is a lncRNA located at the DLK1-MEG3 site of human chromosome 14q32.3. The expression of MEG3 in various tumors is substantially lower than that in normal adjacent tissues, and deletion of MEG3 expression is involved in the occurrence of many tumors. The high expression of MEG3 could inhibit the occurrence and development of tumors through several mechanisms, which has become a research hotspot in recent years. As a member of tumor suppressor lncRNAs, MEG3 is expected to be a new target for tumor diagnosis and treatment. This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of MEG3 in different tumors and future challenges for the diagnosis and treatment of cancers through MEG3.

Abstract
Lymphomas are a diverse group of haematologic malignancies, which occur in infection-fighting cells of the lymphatic system. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-coding RNAs, which have recently received significant attention as the main mediators of gene expression. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on lncRNAs involved in lymphomas, their molecular functions, as well as their potential clinical value. Relevant literature was identified by a PubMed search of English language papers using the following terms: Lymphoma, LncRNA, leukemia, proliferation, apoptosis, and prognosis. LncRNAs are imperative for lymphoma carcinogenesis through affecting apoptosis, cell proliferation, invasion, and response to chemotherapy. The expression level of lncRNAs can affect chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. Taken together, lncRNA dysregulation in lymphoma cells is not only an epiphenomenon but also lncRNA transcription is critically related to the initiation and progression of lymphomas. Aberrant expression of lncRNAs can lead to the transformation of normal lymphocytes into lymphoma cells.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a major factor in the multidrug resistance phenotype in cancer cells. P-gp is a protein that regulates the ATP-dependent efflux of a wide range of anticancer medicines and confers resistance. Due to its wide specificity, several attempts have been made to block the action of P-gp to restore the efficacy of anticancer drugs. The major goal has been to create molecules that either compete with anticancer medicines for transport or function as a direct P-gp inhibitor. Despite significant in vitro success, there are presently no drugs available in the clinic that can "block" P-gp-mediated resistance. Toxicity, unfavourable pharmacological interactions, and a variety of pharmacokinetic difficulties might all be the reason for the failure. On the other hand, P-gp has a significant effect in the body. It protects the vital organs from the entry of foreign bodies and other toxic chemicals. Hence, the inhibitors of P-gp should not hinder its action in the normal cells. To develop an effective inhibitor of P-gp, thorough background knowledge is needed in this field. The main aim of this review article was to set forth the merits and demerits of the action of P-gp on cancer cells as well as on normal cells. The influence of P-gp on cancer drug delivery and the contribution of P-gp to activating drug resistance were also mentioned.

Abstract
PURPOSE Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may act as oncogenes in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Exosomes containing lncRNAs released from cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) accelerate tumorigenesis and confer chemoresistance. This study aimed to explore the action mechanism of the CAF-derived lncRNA maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) on cisplatin (DDP) chemoresistance and cell processes in SCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Quantitative real-time PCR was conducted to determine the expression levels of MEG3, miR-15a-5p, and CCNE1. Cell viability and metastasis were measured by 3-(4, 5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2-h-tetrazolium bromide and invasion assays, respectively. A xenograft tumor model was developed to confirm the effect of MEG3 overexpression on SCLC progression in vivo. Relationships between miR-15a-5p and MEG3/CCNE1 were predicted using StarBase software and validated by dual luciferase reporter assay. Western blotting was used to determine protein levels. A co-culture model was established to explore the effects of exosomes on MEG3 expression in SCLC cell lines. RESULTS MEG3 was overexpressed in SCLC tissues and cells. MEG3 silencing significantly repressed cell viability and metastasis in SCLC. High expression of MEG3 was observed in CAF-derived conditioned medium (CM) and exosomes, and promoted chemoresistance and cancer progression. Additionally, MEG3 was found to serve as a sponge of miR-15a-5p to mediate CCNE1 expression. Overexpression of miR-15a-5p and knockout of CCNE1 reversed the effects of MEG3 overexpression on cell viability and metastasis. CONCLUSION MEG3 lncRNA released from CAF-derived exosomes promotes DDP chemoresistance via regulation of a miR-15a-5p/CCNE1 axis. These findings may provide insight into SCLC therapy.

Abstract
Formation of skeletal muscle is among the most striking examples of cellular plasticity in animal tissue development, and while muscle progenitor cells are reprogrammed by epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) to migrate during embryonic development, the regulation of EMT in post-natal myogenesis remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) Meg3 regulates EMT in myoblast differentiation and skeletal muscle regeneration. Chronic inhibition of Meg3 in C2C12 myoblasts induced EMT, and suppressed cell state transitions required for differentiation. Furthermore, adenoviral Meg3 knockdown compromised muscle regeneration, which was accompanied by abnormal mesenchymal gene expression and interstitial cell proliferation. Transcriptomic and pathway analyses of Meg3-depleted C2C12 myoblasts and injured skeletal muscle revealed a significant dysregulation of EMT-related genes, and identified TGFβ as a key upstream regulator. Importantly, inhibition of TGFβR1 and its downstream effectors, and the EMT transcription factor Snai2, restored many aspects of myogenic differentiation in Meg3-depleted myoblasts in vitro We further demonstrate that reduction of Meg3-dependent Ezh2 activity results in epigenetic alterations associated with TGFβ activation. Thus, Meg3 regulates myoblast identity to facilitate progression into differentiation.

A gene-expression-based signature predicts survival in adults with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma: a multicenter study. Leukemia 2020; 34:2392-2404. [PMID: 32080345 DOI: 10.1038/s41375-020-0757-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2019] [Revised: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
We aimed to establish a discriminative gene-expression-based classifier to predict survival outcomes of T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) patients. After exploring global gene-expression profiles of progressive (n = 22) vs. progression-free (n = 28) T-LBL patients, 43 differentially expressed mRNAs were identified. Then an eleven-gene-based classifier was established using LASSO Cox regression based on NanoString quantification. In the training cohort (n = 169), high-risk patients stratified using the classifier had significantly lower progression-free survival (PFS: hazards ratio 4.123, 95% CI 2.565-6.628; p < 0.001), disease-free survival (DFS: HR 3.148, 95% CI 1.857-5.339; p < 0.001), and overall survival (OS: HR 3.790, 95% CI 2.237-6.423; p < 0.001) compared with low-risk patients. The prognostic accuracy of the classifier was validated in the internal testing (n = 84) and independent validation cohorts (n = 360). A prognostic nomogram consisting of five independent variables including the classifier, lactate dehydrogenase levels, ECOG-PS, central nervous system involvement, and NOTCH1/FBXW7 status showed significantly greater prognostic accuracy than each single variable alone. The addition of a five-miRNA-based signature further enhanced the accuracy of this nomogram. Furthermore, patients with a nomogram score ≥154.2 significantly benefited from the BFM protocol. In conclusion, our nomogram comprising the 11-gene-based classifier may make contributions to individual prognosis prediction and treatment decision-making.

Abstract
The study of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) is a newly established field and our knowledge about them is rapidly growing. These kinds of RNAs are unchanged parts of the genome throughout evolution, that modulate cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis during diverse physiological and pathological processes including leukemia development. They have the capability to be useful biomarkers for the diagnosis, clinical typing, prognosis, as well as potential therapeutic targets. In this study, we summarized the role of lncRNAs in the expression and function of white blood cells and oncogenic transformation into four main types of leukemia.

Long Noncoding RNA Maternally Expressed Gene 3 Is Downregulated, and Its Insufficiency Correlates With Poor-Risk Stratification, Worse Treatment Response, as Well as Unfavorable Survival Data in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Technol Cancer Res Treat 2020; 19:1533033820945815.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study aimed to investigate the correlation of long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression with clinical features, treatment response, and survival profiles in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. METHODS Bone marrow samples of 122 de novo patients with acute myeloid leukemia (prior to treatment) and 30 healthy donors (after enrollment) were collected, and long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression was detected by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. According to median value of long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression in patients with acute myeloid leukemia, they were divided into long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 high expression and low expression patients (which were further categorized as low---, low--, and low- expression patients). RESULTS Long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression was decreased in patients with acute myeloid leukemia compared to healthy donors. Besides, receiver operating characteristic curve displayed that long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 distinguished patients with acute myeloid leukemia from healthy donors. In patients with acute myeloid leukemia, long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 low expression was associated with poor-risk stratification but was not correlated with age, gender, French-American-Britain classification, or white blood cell level. For prognosis, complete remission rate was lowest in long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 low--- expression patients, followed by long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 low-- expression patients, long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 low- expression patients, and was highest in long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 high expression patients; Kaplan-Meier curves displayed that lower long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression was associated with reduced event-free survival and overall survival; Cox regression analysis showed that lower long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 expression independently predicted decreased event-free survival and worse overall survival in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. CONCLUSION Long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 may function as a novel marker for effective surveillance and management of acute myeloid leukemia.

Abstract
Maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 14q32.3. Direct sequencing experiments have shown monoallelic expression of this lncRNA. Several studies have shown down-regulation of this lncRNA in human cancers. In some cases, hypermethylation of the promoter region has been suggested as the underlying mechanism. Functional studies have shown that this lncRNA controls expression of several tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes among them are p53, RB, MYC and TGF-β. Through regulation of Wnt-β-catenin pathway, it also affects epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In vitro studies have demonstrated contribution of MEG3 in defining response to chemotherapeutic agents such as paclitaxel, cisplatin and oxaliplatin. Certain polymorphisms within MEG3 are implicated in cancer risk (rs7158663, rs4081134 and rs11160608) or therapeutic response of cancer patients (rs10132552). Taken together, this lncRNA is regarded as a putative cancer biomarker and treatment target. In the current review, several aspects of the participation of MEG3 in carcinogenesis are discussed.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling is one of the most important intracellular pathways, which can be considered as a master regulator for cancer. Enormous efforts have been dedicated to the development of drugs targeting PI3K signaling, many of which are currently employed in clinical trials evaluation, and it is becoming increasingly clear that PI3K inhibitors are effective in inhibiting tumor progression. PI3K inhibitors are subdivided into dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors, pan-PI3K inhibitors and isoform-specific inhibitors. In this review, we performed a critical review to summarize the role of the PI3K pathway in tumor development, recent PI3K inhibitors development based on clinical trials, and the mechanisms of resistance to PI3K inhibition.
