Abstract
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy and benefits from endocrine agents such as tamoxifen. However, the development of drug resistance in cancerous cells often leads to recurrence, thus limiting the therapeutic benefit. Identification of potential biomarkers that can predict response to tamoxifen and recognize patients who will clinically benefit from this therapy is urgently needed. In this study, we report that high collagen type XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) expression was associated with poor therapeutic response and prognosis in breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen. To confirm the role of COL11A1 in the development of tamoxifen resistance, we established MCF-7/COL11A1 and T47D/COL11A1 cell lines, which stably expressed COL11A1. Compared with parental MCF-7 and T47D, MCF-7/COL11A1 and T47D/COL11A1 cells were more resistant to 4-OHT-induced growth inhibition. Moreover, the level of COL11A1 expression was upregulated in tamoxifen-resistant MCF-7/TamR and T47D/TamR cell lines, and depletion of COL11A1 markedly sensitized the cells to 4-OHT in vitro and in vivo. Interestingly, the level of estrogen receptor α (ERα) expression was elevated, probably due to the increased COL11A1 in TamR cells. In addition, knockdown of COL11A1 decreased the expression of ERα and its downstream target genes. Overall, our findings suggest that overexpressed COL11A1 contributes to tamoxifen resistance, and targeting COL11A1 holds great promise for reversing endocrine resistance.

Biochem Genet 2023; 61:2580-2598. [PMID: 37193942 DOI: 10.1007/s10528-023-10393-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/18/2023]
Abstract
Numerous studies have discovered that hsa_circ_0063526 (also known as circRANGAP1) is an oncogenic circular RNA (circRNA) in some human tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the concrete molecular mechanism of circRANGAP1 involved in NSCLC is not completely elucidated. CircRANGAP1, microRNA-653-5p (miR-653-5p), and Type XI collagen (COL11A1) contents were determined via real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Cell proliferative ability, migration, and invasion were measured using 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU), colony formation, wound healing, and transwell assays. E-cadherin, N-cadherin, Vimentin, and COL11A1 protein levels were detected via western blot assay. After Starbase software prediction, the binding between miR-653-5p and circRANGAP1 or COL11A1 was verified using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Besides, the role of circRANGAP1 on tumor cell growth was analyzed using a xenograft tumor model in vivo. Increased circRANGAP1 and COL11A1, and reduced miR-653-5p were found in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, circRANGAP1 absence might hinder NSCLC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro. Mechanically, circRANGAP1 functioned as a sponge of miR-653-5p to increase COL11A1 expression. In vivo experiments illustrated that circRANGAP1 knockdown repressed tumor growth. CircRANGAP1 silencing might suppress NSCLC cell malignant biological behaviors, at least in part, through the miR-653-5p/COL11A1 axis. These results provided a promising strategy for treating NSCLC malignancies.

Abstract
Non-coding RNAs have shown key roles in cancer and among them, short RNA molecules are known as microRNAs (miRNAs). These molecules have length less than 25 nucleotides and suppress translation and expression. The functional miRNAs are produced in cytoplasm. Lung cancer is a devastating disease that its mortality and morbidity have undergone an increase in recent years. Aggressive behavior leads to undesirable prognosis and tumors demonstrate abnormal proliferation and invasion. In the present review, miRNA functions in lung cancer is described. miRNAs reduce/increase proliferation and metastasis. They modulate cell death and proliferation. Overexpression of oncogenic miRNAs facilitates drug resistance and radio-resistance in lung cancer. Tumor microenvironment components including macrophages and cancer-associated fibroblasts demonstrate interactions with miRNAs in lung cancer. Other factors such as HIF-1α, lncRNAs and circRNAs modulate miRNA expression. miRNAs have also value in the diagnosis of lung cancer. Understanding such interactions can pave the way for developing novel therapeutics in near future for lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Background Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), an extracellular secreted glycol phosphoprotein, is closely related to tumor biologies, such as proliferation, migration, and invasion. However, the role and biological function of SPP1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) was still ambiguous. Methods SPP1 expression in LUAD tissues and its associations with clinical features and prognosis was investigated using meta-analysis, immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining methods, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Moreover, the potential mechanism related to SPP1 was identified by using the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) method. A series of function assays were conducted to determine the biological role of SPP1 in LUAD cell migration and invasion in vitro and vivo. The co-expressed genes of SPP1 were obtained and verified by western blot assays. The influence of SPP1 on Collagen type XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) expression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers was analyzed using western blot assays. Results The expression of SPP1 in LUAD tissues and cells was significantly higher than that in normal tissues and cells. And positively associations of SPP1 expression with TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and invasion depth were observed. Patients with high SPP1 expression had unfavorable survival. The multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that SPP1 expression was an independent prognostic factor of LUAD patients. Furthermore, downregulation of SPP1 could inhibit cell migration and invasion both in vitro and vivo, reduce the expression of epithelial marker (E-cadherin), and increase the expression of mesenchymal markers (N-cadherin and vimentin). Using bioinformatics and western blot assays, we confirmed that COL11A1 acted as the downstream of SPP1, and SPP1 knockdown could significantly downregulate the COL11A1 expression. Importantly, suppression of cell migration and invasion and the expression changes of EMT markers induced by SPP1 downregulation could be reversed by COL11A1 overexpression. Conclusions SPP1 facilitates cell migration and invasion by upregulating COL11A1 expression and that acts as a potential biomarker of metastasis and prognosis for LUAD.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence rate at present, and its incidence rate ranks first in the female population. COL11A1 is an important component of collagen XI and is considered to play an important role in a variety of connective tissue diseases. Recent studies have shown that COL11A1 is associated with the occurrence and development of many kinds of malignant tumors. However, its prognostic value in breast cancer and its correlation with immune cell infiltration in tumor tissue are not clear. In this paper, we reveal the prognostic value of COL11A1 in breast cancer and its tumor immune-related function through in-depth bioinformatics analysis. The expression of COL11A1 is abnormally upregulated in breast cancer and is significantly related to the poor prognosis of breast cancer. In the analysis of the clinical characteristics of the patients, we found that the expression level of COLL11A1 was closely related to lymph node metastasis, PAM50 (Prediction Analysis of Microarray 50) expression, clinical stage and so on. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) all suggest that COL11A1 is related to tumor immunity. Further study found that the COL11A1 expression was significantly correlated with the degree of immune infiltration and the expression of a variety of immune cell markers in tumor tissue. More importantly, COL11A1 can affect the prognosis of breast cancer patients by participating in the regulation of tumor immune infiltration. Therefore, we believe that COL11A1 is a very potential target for diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
Collagen type XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) as an oncogene has been reported in several malignant tumors. Herein, we aimed to explore the function of COL11A1 and its upstream regulators in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). COL11A1 expression prognostic significance, gene ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, and immune infiltration were explored in LUAD. In vitro experimental measurements were implemented to validate the function of COL11A1 and LINC00665 in LUAD cells. Our study demonstrated that LINC00665-2 and COL11A1 were significantly upregulated in LUAD tissues compared with nontumor tissues. COL11A1 was positively correlated with multiple immune cell enrichment, suggesting that COL11A1 may be a prospective therapeutic target to enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy in LUAD. A regulatory mechanism LINC00665-2/microRNAs (miRNAs)/COL11A1 axis was identified to facilitate the tumorigenesis of LUAD. si-LINC00665 transfection induced the inhibition of growth and migration, and apoptosis was reversed by the overexpression of COL11A1 in LUAD cells. In conclusion, LINC00665 as a competing endogenous RNA sponging multiple miRNAs to modulate COL11A1 expression in LUAD, suggesting that LINC00665/miRNAs/COL11A1 axis may contribute to the pathogenesis of LUAD.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is one of the three major gynecological malignancies. It has been reported that Icariside II was able to block the occurrence and development of ovarian cancer. However, the detailed mechanism by which Icariside II regulates the development of ovarian cancer is widely unknown. EdU staining and transwell assays were applied to detect the proliferation, migration, and invasion of ovarian cancer cells. Next, the relationship between miR-144-3p and IGF2R was verified by the dual-luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, in vivo animal model was constructed to verify the effect of Icariside II on the development of ovarian cancer. Icariside II notably inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion and induced the apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells. Additionally, Icariside II markedly increased the level of miR-144-3p in ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, IGF2R was targeted by miR-144-3p directly. Icariside II significantly decreased the expression of IGF2R and the phosphorylation level of AKT and mTOR in ovarian cancer cells, which were partially reversed by miR-144-3p inhibitor. Meanwhile, Icariside II remarkably promoted the autophagy of ovarian cancer cells, as confirmed by the increased expression of Beclin-1 and ATG-5 and decreased expression of p62; however, co-treatment with miR-144-3p inhibitor notably decreased autophagy. Furthermore, the result of animal study suggested Icariside II notably inhibited ovarian tumor growth as well. Collectively, Icariside II could suppress the tumorigenesis and development of ovarian cancer by promoting autophagy via miR-144-3p/IGF2R axis. These results may be beneficial for future studies on the use of Icariside II to treat ovarian cancer.
