Stem Cells Int 2023; 2023:9997676. [PMID: 37159751 PMCID: PMC10163973 DOI: 10.1155/2023/9997676] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The poor prognosis of the highly malignant tumor osteosarcoma stems from its drug resistance and therefore exploring its resistance mechanisms will help us identify more effective treatment options. However, the effects of miR-125b-5p on drug resistance in osteosarcoma cells are still unclear. Methods To study the effects of miR-125b-5p on drug resistance in osteosarcoma cells. Osteosarcoma-resistant miR-125b-5p was obtained from the databases GeneCards and g:Profiler. CCK8, western blot, and transwell were applied for the detection of the miR-125b-5p effects on proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, and drug resistance in osteosarcoma. Bioinformatics is aimed at demonstrating the targeting factor miR-125b-5p, performing protein interaction enrichment analysis by Metascape, and finally validating by binding sites. Results Upregulation of miR-125b-5p restrains proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma and promotes apoptosis. In addition, miR-125b-5p can restore drug sensitivity in drug-resistant osteosarcoma. miR-125-5p restrains the signal transducer and inhibits the transcription 3 (STAT3) expression activator via targeting its 3'-UTR. STAT3 affects drug-resistant osteosarcoma to regulate the ABC transporter. Conclusion miR-125b-5p/STAT3 axis mediates the drug resistance of osteosarcoma by acting on ABC transporter.

Pharmacol Res 2023; 190:106732. [PMID: 36931542 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2023.106732] [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: 12/25/2022] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023]
Abstract
High mobility group A 2 (HMGA2) is a protein that modulates the structure of chromatin in the nucleus. Importantly, aberrant expression of HMGA2 occurs during carcinogenesis, and this protein is an upstream mediator of cancer hallmarks including evasion of apoptosis, proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and therapy resistance. HMGA2 targets critical signaling pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin and mTOR in cancer cells. Therefore, suppression of HMGA2 function notably decreases cancer progression and improves outcome in patients. As HMGA2 is mainly oncogenic, targeting expression by non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) is crucial to take into consideration since it affects HMGA2 function. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) belong to ncRNAs and are master regulators of vital cell processes, which affect all aspects of cancer hallmarks. Long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), other members of ncRNAs, are upstream mediators of miRNAs. The current review intends to discuss the importance of the miRNA/HMGA2 axis in modulation of various types of cancer, and mentions lncRNAs and circRNAs, which regulate this axis as upstream mediators. Finally, we discuss the effect of miRNAs and HMGA2 interactions on the response of cancer cells to therapy. Regarding the critical role of HMGA2 in regulation of critical signaling pathways in cancer cells, and considering the confirmed interaction between HMGA2 and one of the master regulators of cancer, miRNAs, targeting miRNA/HMGA2 axis in cancer therapy is promising and this could be the subject of future clinical trial experiments.

Osteosarcoma Cell-Derived Exosomal ELFN1-AS1 Mediates Macrophage M2 Polarization via Sponging miR-138-5p and miR-1291 to Promote the Tumorgenesis of Osteosarcoma. Front Oncol 2022; 12:881022.

Abstract
BackgroundExosomes play an important role in cell-cell communication by transferring genetic materials such as long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) between cancer cells and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Recent studies revealed that lncRNA ELFN1-AS1 could function as an oncogene in many human cancers. However, the role of extracellular lncRNA ELFN1-AS1 in cell-to-cell communication of osteosarcoma (OS) has not been fully investigated.MethodsFunctional studies, including CCK-8, EdU staining and transwell assay were performed to investigate the role of ELFN1-AS1 in the progression of OS. 143B via xenograft mouse model was established to assess the role of ELFN1-AS1 in vivo. In addition, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) assay were used to verify the existence of exosomal ELFN1-AS1.ResultsThe level of ELFN1-AS1 was markedly upregulated in patients with advanced OS and in OS cells. In addition, overexpression of ELFN1-AS1 significantly promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of OS cells, while knockdown of ELFN1-AS1 exhibited the opposite effects. Meanwhile, ELFN1-AS1 could be transferred from OS cells to macrophages via exosomes. Exosomal ELFN1-AS1 from 143B cells was able to promote macrophage M2 polarization, and M2 macrophage in return facilitated OS progression. Mechanistically, overexpression of ELFN1-AS1 upregulated CREB1 level via sponging miR-138-5p and miR-1291 in macrophage via.ConclusionOS cell-derived exosomal ELFN1-AS1 was able to induce macrophage M2 polarization via sponging miR-138-5p and miR-1291, and M2 macrophage notably facilitated the progression of OS. These data suggested that ELFN1-AS1 might serve as a potential therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.

[PMID: 34605103 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.22921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2021] [Revised: 08/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
LINC01410 is a tumor promoter that is upregulated in some cancer types, such as osteosarcoma (OS). Nonetheless, its role in OS and the underlying molecular mechanism have not been fully understood. Hence, we sought to elucidate it. We performed reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction for examining LINC01410, miR-497-5p and HMGA2 levels. Additionally, we carried out the cell counting kit-8 and Transwell assays for detecting cell proliferation and invasion/migration. Bioinformatics predicted that there was a miR-497-5p binding site in LINC01410 or HMGA2; meanwhile, miR-497-5p was found to interact with HMGA2 and LINC01410 through dual-luciferase reporter assay. LINC01410 and HMGA2 were high, and miR-497-5p showed low expression in OS tissues and cells. Cell function assay demonstrated that LINC01410 or HMGA2 knockdown or miR-497-5p overexpression obviously restrained OS proliferation, invasion, and migration. Oppositely, inhibiting miR-497-5p had the opposite effects. Functionally, miR-497-5p bound with LINC01410 3'-untranslated region and HMGA2 was found to be the miR-497-5p target gene. Lastly, LINC01410 enhanced OS cell growth, invasion, and migration via decreasing miR-497-5p expression, whereas increasing that of HMGA2. We have demonstrated that LINC01410 promoted OS development partly by miR-497-5p/HMGA2 signal transduction pathway and this provides a reference for studying the mechanism of LINC01410 in OS.
