Feng Y, Zhang T, Liu H. circPDK1 competitively binds miR-4731-5p to mediate GIGYF1 expression and increase paclitaxel sensitivity in non-small cell lung cancer. Discov Oncol 2024; 15:157. [PMID: 38733530 PMCID: PMC11088590 DOI: 10.1007/s12672-024-01003-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the action of circPDK1 in paclitaxel (PTX) resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS circPDK1, miR-4731-5p, and GIGYF1 levels were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 and colony formation assay, apoptosis by flow cytometry, invasion by Transwell assay. The targeting relationship between miR-4731-5p and circPDK1 or GIGYF1 was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter gene and RIP assay. A xenograft tumor model was established to determine the role of circPDK1 in PTX resistance. RESULTS circPDK1 was overexpressed in PTX-resistant NSCLC, and depleting circPDK1 hampered proliferation and invasion of PTX-resistant cells, activated apoptosis, and improved PTX sensitivity. circPDK1 bound to miR-4731-5p, and increasing miR-4731-5p expression salvaged the effect of circPDK1 depletion on PTX resistance. miR-4731-5p directly targeted GIGYF1, and upregulating GIGYF1 offset the promoting effect of circPDK1 knockdown on PTX sensitivity. NSCLC tumor growth was inhibited and PTX sensitivity improved when circPDK1 was suppressed. CONCLUSION Depleting circPDK1 promotes PTX sensitivity of NSCLC cells via miR-4731-5p/GIGYF1 axis, thereby inhibiting NSCLC pregnancy.

Shou Y, Yue C, Wang Q, Liu J, Xu J, Miao Q, Liu D, Yang H, Liu Y, Zhang X. circPTPN12 promotes the progression and sunitinib resistance of renal cancer via hnRNPM/IL-6/STAT3 pathway. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:232. [PMID: 37002206 PMCID: PMC10066201 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-023-05717-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023]
Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is characterized by the difficulties in early diagnosis and the propensity to metastases. For advanced RCC, sunitinib targeted therapy is the clinically recommended first-line drug and the major challenge of sunitinib treatment is adaptive resistance. Therefore, it is imperative to research the mechanisms underlying sunitinib resistance. In this study, we discovered that circPTPN12 was highly expressed in RCC tissues and was associated with poorer clinical outcomes. circPTPN12 could promote the proliferation, migration, invasion, and sunitinib resistance of RCC cells. Mechanistically, circPTPN12 was found to form a complex with hnRNPM, which was involved in the regulation of mRNA processing. The combination with circPTPN12 enhanced the ability of hnRNPM to maintain the stability of IL-6 mRNA and further activated the STAT3 signaling pathway. The study revealed that circPTPN12/hnRNPM/IL-6/STAT3 axis promoted RCC progression and sunitinib resistance, which might be a promising therapeutic target for relieving sunitinib resistance in RCC.

Yan T, Tian X, Liu F, Liu Q, Sheng Q, Wu J, Jiang S. The emerging role of circular RNAs in drug resistance of non-small cell lung cancer. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1003230. [PMID: 36303840 PMCID: PMC9592927 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1003230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Due to the characteristics of aggressiveness and high risk of postoperative recurrence, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a serious hazard to human health, accounting for 85% of all lung cancer cases. Drug therapies, including chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy, are effective treatments for NSCLC in clinics. However, most patients ultimately develop drug resistance, which is also the leading cause of treatment failure in cancer. To date, the mechanisms of drug resistance have yet to be fully elucidated, thus original strategies are developed to overcome this issue. Emerging studies have illustrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) participate in the generation of therapeutic resistance in NSCLC. CircRNAs mediate the modulations of immune cells, cytokines, autophagy, ferroptosis and metabolism in the tumor microenvironment (TME), which play essential roles in the generation of drug resistance of NSCLC. More importantly, circRNAs function as miRNAs sponges to affect specific signaling pathways, directly leading to the generation of drug resistance. Consequently, this review highlights the mechanisms underlying the relationship between circRNAs and drug resistance in NSCLC. Additionally, several therapeutic drugs associated with circRNAs are summarized, aiming to provide references for circRNAs serving as potential therapeutic targets in overcoming drug resistance in NSCLC.
