Li L, Gao Y, Yu B, Zhang J, Ma G, Jin X. Role of LncRNA H19 in tumor progression and treatment. Mol Cell Probes 2024; 75:101961. [PMID: 38579914 DOI: 10.1016/j.mcp.2024.101961] [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: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
As one of the earliest discovered lncRNA molecules, lncRNA H19 is usually expressed in large quantities during embryonic development and is involved in cell differentiation and tissue formation. In recent years, the role of lncRNA H19 in tumors has been gradually recognized. Increasing evidence suggests that its aberrant expression is closely related to cancer development. LncRNA H19 as an oncogene not only promotes the growth, proliferation, invasion and metastasis of many tumors, but also develops resistance to treatment, affecting patients' prognosis and survival. Therefore, in this review, we summarise the extensive research on the involvement of lncRNA H19 in tumor progression and discuss how lncRNA H19, as a key target gene, affects tumor sensitivity to radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy by participating in multiple cellular processes and regulating multiple signaling pathways, which provides a promising prospect for further research into the treatment of cancer.

Transcriptomic analysis identifies the neuropeptide cortistatin (CORT) as an inhibitor of temozolomide (TMZ) resistance by suppressing the NF-κB-MGMT signaling axis in human glioma. Genes Dis 2024; 11:100977. [PMID: 38292193 PMCID: PMC10825237 DOI: 10.1016/j.gendis.2023.04.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 03/19/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Glioma is a common tumor originating in the brain that has a high mortality rate. Temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line treatment for high-grade gliomas. However, a large proportion of gliomas are resistant to TMZ, posing a great challenge to their treatment. In the study, the specific functions and mechanism(s) by which cortistatin (CORT) regulates TMZ resistance and glioma progression were evaluated. The decreased expression of CORT was detected in glioma tissues, and highly expressed CORT was associated with a better survival rate in patients with glioma. CORT overexpression notably decreased the capacity of glioma cells to proliferate and migrate in vitro and to form tumors in vivo. CORT overexpression also markedly suppressed the viability and enhanced the apoptosis of TMZ-resistant U251 cells by regulating MGMT, p21, and Puma expression. Importantly, CORT overexpression reduced the resistance of gliomas to TMZ in vivo. CORT expression was negatively correlated with MGMT expression in both glioma tissues and cells, and it was found that CORT inhibited NF-κB pathway activation in glioma cells, thereby inhibiting MGMT expression. In conclusion, CORT regulates glioma cell growth, migration, apoptosis, and TMZ resistance by weakening the activity of NF-κB/p65 and thereby regulating MGMT expression. The CORT/NF-κB/MGMT axis might be regarded as a molecular mechanism contributing to the resistance of glioma to TMZ. Our data also suggest that CORT regulates the viability and metastatic potential of glioma cells, independent of its effects on TMZ resistance, providing evidence of novel therapeutic targets for glioma that should be evaluated in further studies.

Abstract
Aim: We predicted the modulation of autophagy and apoptosis in response to temozolomide (TMZ) and IFN-γ based on changes in the expression of non-coding RNAs in C6-induced glioblastoma (GBM). Materials & methods: Each rat received an intraperitoneal injection of TMZ (7.5 mg/kg) and/or IFN-γ (50,000 IU). Results: The reduced expression of H19 and colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE) was associated with a reduction in autophagy in response to TMZ, IFN-γ and TMZ + IFN-γ therapy, whereas the decreased level of miR-29a (proapoptotic miRNA) was associated with an increase in apoptosis. Conclusion: It appears that H19 promotes switching from autophagy to apoptosis in response to combination therapy of TMZ and IFN-γ through the miR-29a/autophagy-related protein 9A (ATG9A) pathway in C6-induced GBM.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common primary malignant brain tumor in adults and accounts for approximately 80% of brain and central nervous system tumors. In 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) published a new taxonomy for glioma based on its histological features and molecular alterations. Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) catalyzes the decarboxylation of isocitrate, a critical metabolic reaction in energy generation in cells. Mutations in the IDH genes interrupt cell differentiation and serve as molecular biomarkers that can be used to classify gliomas. For example, the mutant IDH is widely detected in low-grade gliomas, whereas the wild type is in high-grade ones, including glioblastomas. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are epigenetically involved in gene expression and contribute to glioma development. To investigate the potential use of lncRNAs as biomarkers, we examined lncRNA dysregulation dependent on the IDH mutation status. We found that several lncRNAs, namely, AL606760.2, H19, MALAT1, PVT1 and SBF2-AS1 may function as glioma risk factors, whereas AC068643.1, AC079228.1, DGCR5, FAM13A-AS1, HAR1A and WDFY3-AS2 may have protective effects. Notably, H19, MALAT1, PVT1, and SBF2-AS1 have been associated with temozolomide resistance in glioma patients. This review study suggests that targeting glioma-associated lncRNAs might aid the treatment of glioma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the advances made in cancer treatment in the past decades, therapeutic efficacy is still quite challenging, partially due to the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR). It is crucial to decipher the underlying mechanisms of resistance in order to develop new therapeutic strategies for cancer patients. Previous studies have shown that activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) plays key roles in various cellular processes including proliferation, anti-apoptosis, metastasis, invasion, and chemoresistance. AREAS COVERED In this review, we conduct an integrated analysis of the evidence suggesting the vital roles of the NF-κB signaling pathway in MDR during chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine, and targeted therapy. A literature search was performed on NF-κB and drug resistance in PubMed up to February 2023. EXPERT OPINION This review summarizes that the NF-κB signaling pathway exhibits a crucial role in enhancing drug resistance in chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine, and targeted therapy. The application of combination therapy with existing antineoplastic drugs and a safe NF-κB inhibitor could become a promising strategy in cancer treatment. A better understanding of the pathway and mechanisms of drug resistance may help exploit safer and more effective NF-κB-targeting agents for clinical use in the future.

Abstract
LncRNA H19 has been reported to regulate apoptosis and neurological diseases. Hippocampal neuron apoptosis damages cognitive ability. Methionine restriction (MR) can improve cognitive impairment. However, the effect of MR on hippocampal neuronal apoptosis induced by a high-fat diet (HFD) in middle-aged mice remains unclear. For 25 weeks, middle-aged mice (C57BL/6J) were given a control diet (CON, 0.86% methionine + 4.2% fat), a high-fat diet (HFD, 0.86% methionine + 24% fat), or an HFD + MR diet (HFMR, 0.17% methionine + 24% fat). The HT22 cells were used to establish the early apoptosis model induced by high glucose (HG). In vitro, the results showed that MR significantly improved cell viability, suppressed the generation of ROS, and rescued HT22 cell apoptosis in a gradient-dependent manner. In Vivo, MR inhibited the damage and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons caused by a high-fat diet, reduced hippocampal oxidative stress, improved hippocampal glucose metabolism, relieved insulin resistance, and enhanced cognitive ability. Furthermore, MR could inhibit the overexpression of H19 and caspase-3 induced by HFD, HG, or H2O2 in vivo and in vitro, and promoted let-7a, b, e expression. These results indicate that MR can protect neurons from HFD-, HG-, or H2O2-induced injury and apoptosis by inhibiting H19.

Abstract
Initiation and development of cancer depend on multiple factors that mutations in genes and epigenetic level can be considered as important drivers. Epigenetic factors include a large family of members and understanding their function in cancer has been a hot topic. LncRNAs are RNA molecules with no capacity in synthesis of proteins, and they have regulatory functions in cells. LncRNAs are localized in nucleus and cytoplasm, and their abnormal expression is related to development of tumor. This manuscript emphasizes on the role of lncRNA H19 in various cancers and its association with tumor hallmarks. The function of lncRNA H19 in most tumors is oncogenic and therefore, tumor cells increase its expression for promoting their progression. LncRNA H19 contributes to enhancing growth and cell cycle of cancers and by EMT induction, it is able to elevate metastasis rate. Silencing H19 induces apoptotic cell death and disrupts progression of tumors. LncRNA H19 triggers chemo- and radio-resistance in cancer cells. miRNAs are dually upregulated/down-regulated by lncRNA H19 in increasing tumor progression. Anti-cancer agents reduce lncRNA H19 in impairing tumor progression and increasing therapy sensitivity. A number of downstream targets and molecular pathways for lncRNA H19 have been detected in cancers including miRNAs, RUNX1, STAT3, β-catenin, Akt2 and FOXM1. Clinical studies have revealed potential of lncRNA H19 as biomarker and its association with poor prognosis. LncRNA H19 can be transferred to cancer cells via exosomes in enhancing their progression.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary adult brain tumor, with an estimated annual incidence of 17 000 new cases in the United States. Current treatments for GBM include chemotherapy, surgical resection, radiation therapy, and antiangiogenic therapy. However, despite the various therapeutic options, the 5-year survival rate remains at a dismal 5%. Temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line chemotherapy drug for GBM; however, poor TMZ response is one of the main contributors to the dismal prognosis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are nonprotein coding transcripts greater than 200 nucleotides that have been implicated to mediate various GBM pathologies, including chemoresistance. In this review, we aim to frame the TMZ response in GBM via exploration of the lncRNAs mediating three major mechanisms of TMZ resistance: (1) regulation of the DNA damage response, (2) maintenance of glioma stem cell identity, and (3) exploitation of hypoxia-associated responses.

Abstract
Various treatments based on drug administration and radiotherapy have been devoted to preventing, palliating, and defeating cancer, showing high efficiency against the progression of this disease. Recently, in this process, malignant cells have been found which are capable of triggering specific molecular mechanisms against current treatments, with negative consequences in the prognosis of the disease. It is therefore fundamental to understand the underlying mechanisms, including the genes—and their signaling pathway regulators—involved in the process, in order to fight tumor cells. Long non-coding RNAs, H19 in particular, have been revealed as powerful protective factors in various types of cancer. However, they have also evidenced their oncogenic role in multiple carcinomas, enhancing tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. In this review, we analyze the role of lncRNA H19 impairing chemo and radiotherapy in tumorigenesis, including breast cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, glioma, and colorectal carcinoma.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as ischemic stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injury, glioma, and epilepsy, involve oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis, often leading to long-term disability or death. Emerging studies suggest that oxidative stress may induce epigenetic modifications that contribute to CNS disorders. Non-coding RNAs are epigenetic regulators involved in CNS disorders and have attracted extensive attention. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-coding RNAs more than 200 nucleotides long and have no protein-coding function. However, these molecules exert regulatory functions at the transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and epigenetic levels. However, the major role of lncRNAs in the pathophysiology of CNS disorders, especially related to oxidative stress, remains unclear. Here, we review the molecular functions of lncRNAs in oxidative stress and highlight lncRNAs that exert positive or negative roles in oxidation/antioxidant systems. This review provides novel insights into the therapeutic potential of lncRNAs that mediate oxidative stress in CNS disorders.

Abstract
Background Gliomas are primary aggressive brain tumors with poor prognoses. Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the tumorigenesis and drug resistance of gliomas. The aim of the present study was to use integrated bioinformatics analyses to evaluate the prognostic value of oxidative stress-related genes (OSRGs) in glioma. Material/Methods Disease- and prognosis-associated OSRGs were identified using microarray and clinical data from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database. Functional enrichment, gene-gene interaction, protein-protein interaction, and survival analyses were performed in screened OSRGs. The protein expression was validated by the Human Protein Atlas database. A risk score model was constructed and verified through Cox regression, receiver operating characteristic curve, principal component, and stratified analyses. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used for external validation. A nomogram was constructed to facilitate the clinical application. Results Twenty-one disease-associated and 14 prognosis-associated OSRGs were identified. Enrichment analyses indicated that these signature OSRGs were involved in tumorigenesis and drug resistance of glioma. The risk score model demonstrated a significant difference in overall survival between the high- and low-risk groups. The area under the curve and hazard ratio (1.296) revealed the independent prognostic value of the model. The model exhibited good predictive efficacy in the TCGA cohort. A clinical nomogram was constructed to calculate survival rates in glioma patients at 1, 3, and 5 years. Conclusions Our comprehensive study indicated that OSRGs were valuable for prognosis prediction in glioma, which provides a novel insight into the relationship between oxidative stress and glioma and a potential therapeutic strategy for glioma patients.

Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221810160. [PMID: 34576322 PMCID: PMC8466298 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221810160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 09/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Rare cancers are identified as those with an annual incidence of fewer than 6 per 100,000 persons and includes both epithelial and stromal tumors from different anatomical areas. The advancement of analytical methods has produced an accurate molecular characterization of most human cancers, suggesting a “molecular classification” that has allowed the establishment of increasingly personalized therapeutic strategies. However, the limited availability of rare cancer samples has resulted in very few therapeutic options for these tumors, often leading to poor prognosis. Long non coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs mostly involved in tumor progression and drug response. In particular, the lncRNA HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) represents an emergent diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarker in many human cancers. The aim of this review is to highlight the role of HOTAIR in rare cancers, proposing it as a new biomarker usable in the management of these tumors.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a series of non-coding RNAs that lack open reading frameworks. Accumulating evidence suggests important roles for lncRNAs in various diseases, including cancers. Recently, lncRNA H19 (H19) became a research focus due to its ectopic expression in human malignant tumors, where it functioned as an oncogene. Subsequently, H19 was confirmed to be involved in tumorigenesis and malignant progression in many tumors and had been implicated in promoting cell growth, invasion, migration, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, metastasis, and apoptosis. H19 also sequesters some microRNAs, facilitating a multilayer molecular regulatory mechanism. In this review, we summarize the abnormal overexpression of H19 in human cancers, which suggests wide prospects for further research into the diagnosis and treatment of cancers.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a frequent form of malignant glioma. Strategic therapeutic approaches to treat this type of brain tumor currently involves a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Nevertheless, survival of GBM patients remains in the 12-15 months range following diagnosis. Development of novel therapeutic approaches for this malignancy is therefore of utmost importance. Interestingly, bee venom and its components have shown promising anti-cancer activities in various types of cancer even though information pertaining to GBMs have been limited. The current work was thus undertaken to better characterize the anti-cancer properties of bee venom and its components in Hs683, T98G and U373 human glioma cells. MTT-based cell viability assays revealed IC50 values of 7.12, 15.35 and 7.60 μg/mL for cell lines Hs683, T98G and U373 treated with bee venom, respectively. Furthermore, melittin treatment of these cell lines resulted in IC50 values of 7.77, 31.53 and 12.34 μg/mL, respectively. Cell viability assessment by flow cytometry analysis confirmed signs of late apoptosis and necrosis after only 1 h of treatment with either bee venom or melittin in all three cell lines. Immunoblotting-based quantification of apoptotic markers demonstrated increased expression of Bak and Bax, while Caspsase-3 levels were significantly lower when compared to control cells. Quantification by qRT-PCR showed increased expression levels of long non-coding RNAs RP11-838N2.4 and XIST in glioma cells treated with either bee venom or melittin. Overall, this study provides preliminary insight on molecular mechanisms via which bee venom and its main components can impact viability of glioma cells and warrants further investigation of its anticancer potential in gliomas.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly lethal cancer that is universally refractory to the standard multimodal therapies of surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy treatment. Temozolomide (TMZ) is currently the best chemotherapy agent for GBM, but the durability of response is epigenetically dependent and often short-lived secondary to tumor resistance. Therapies that can provide synergy to chemoradiation are desperately needed in GBM. There is accumulating evidence that adaptive resistance evolution in GBM is facilitated through treatment-induced epigenetic modifications. Epigenetic alterations of DNA methylation, histone modifications, and chromatin remodeling have all been implicated as mechanisms that enhance accessibility for transcriptional activation of genes that play critical roles in GBM resistance and lethality. Hence, understanding and targeting epigenetic modifications associated with GBM resistance is of utmost priority. In this review, we summarize the latest updates on the impact of epigenetic modifications on adaptive resistance evolution in GBM to therapy.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common malignant central nervous system tumor with significant mortality and morbidity. Despite considerable advances, the exact molecular pathways involved in tumor progression are not fully elucidated, and patients commonly face a poor prognosis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently drawn extra attention for their potential roles in different types of cancer as well as non-malignant diseases. More than 200 lncRNAs have been reported to be associated with glioma. We aimed to assess the roles of the most investigated lncRNAs in different stages of tumor progression and the mediating molecular pathways in addition to their clinical applications. lncRNAs are involved in different stages of tumor formation, invasion, and progression, including regulating the cell cycle, apoptosis, autophagy, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, tumor stemness, angiogenesis, the integrity of the blood-tumor-brain barrier, tumor metabolism, and immunological responses. The well-known oncogenic lncRNAs, which are upregulated in glioma, are H19, HOTAIR, PVT1, UCA1, XIST, CRNDE, FOXD2-AS1, ANRIL, HOXA11-AS, TP73-AS1, and DANCR. On the other hand, MEG3, GAS5, CCASC2, and TUSC7 are tumor suppressor lncRNAs, which are downregulated. While most studies reported oncogenic effects for MALAT1, TUG1, and NEAT1, there are some controversies regarding these lncRNAs. Expression levels of lncRNAs can be associated with tumor grade, survival, treatment response (chemotherapy drugs or radiotherapy), and overall prognosis. Moreover, circulatory levels of lncRNAs, such as MALAT1, H19, HOTAIR, NEAT1, TUG1, GAS5, LINK-A, and TUSC7, can provide non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic tools. Modulation of expression of lncRNAs using antisense oligonucleotides can lead to novel therapeutics. Notably, a profound understanding of the underlying molecular pathways involved in the function of lncRNAs is required to develop novel therapeutic targets. More investigations with large sample sizes and increased focus on in-vivo models are required to expand our understanding of the potential roles and application of lncRNAs in glioma.

Abstract
Tumors of the nervous system can be originated from several locations. They mostly have high mortality and morbidity rate. The emergence of resistance to chemotherapeutic agents is a hurdle in the treatment of patients. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to influence the response of glioblastoma/glioma and neuroblastoma to chemotherapeutic agents. MALAT1, NEAT1, and H19 are among lncRNAs that affect the response of glioma/glioblastoma to chemotherapy. As well as that, NORAD, SNHG7, and SNHG16 have been shown to be involved in conferring this phenotype in neuroblastoma. Prior identification of expression amounts of certain lncRNAs would help in the better design of therapeutic regimens. In the current manuscript, we summarize the impact of lncRNAs on chemoresistance in glioma/glioblastoma and neuroblastoma.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) disorders are some of the most complex and challenging diseases because of the intricate structure and functions of the CNS. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) H19, which had been mistaken for "transcription noise" previously, has now been found to be closely related to the development and homeostasis of the CNS. Several recent studies indicate that it plays an important role in the pathogenesis, treatment, and even prognosis of CNS disorders. LncRNA H19 is correlated with susceptibility to various CNS disorders such as intracranial aneurysms, ischemic stroke, glioma, and neuroblastoma. Moreover, it participates in the pathogenesis of CNS disorders by regulating transcription, translation, and signaling pathways, suggesting that it is a promising biomarker and therapeutic target for these disorders. This article reviews the functions and mechanisms of lncRNA H19 in various CNS disorders, including cerebral ischemia, cerebral hemorrhage, glioma, pituitary adenoma, neuroblastoma, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, traumatic spinal cord injury, neuropathic pain, and temporal lobe epilepsy, to provide a theoretical basis for further research on the role of lncRNA H19 in CNS disorders.

Abstract
Brain tumors are associated with adverse outcomes despite improvements in radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and photodynamic therapy. However, treatment approaches are evolving, and new biological phenomena are being explored to identify the appropriate treatment of brain tumors. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a type of non-coding RNA longer than 200 nucleotides, regulate gene expression at the transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and epigenetic levels and are involved in a variety of biological functions. Recent studies on lncRNAs have revealed their aberrant expression in various cancers, with distinct expression patterns associated with their instrumental roles in cancer. Abnormal expression of lncRNAs has also been identified in brain tumors. Here, we review the potential roles of lncRNAs and their biological functions in the context of brain tumors. We also summarize the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways related to lncRNAs that may guide clinical trials for brain tumor therapy.

Abstract
Glioblastoma, also known as glioblastoma multiforme, is the most aggressive brain tumor in adults. Despite the huge advance in developing novel therapeutic strategies for patients with glioblastoma, the appearance of multidrug resistance (MDR) against the common chemotherapeutic agents, including temozolomide, is considered as one of the important causes for the failure of glioblastoma treatment. On the other hand, recent studies have demonstrated the critical roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), particularly in the development of MDR in glioblastoma. Therefore, this article aimed to review lncRNA's contribution to the regulation of MDR and elucidate the underlying mechanisms in glioblastoma, which will open up new lines of inquiry in the treatment of glioblastoma.

Abstract
H19 is an oncofetal transcript with crucial roles in the development and progression of several neoplastic cells. With anti-apoptotic, pro-proliferative, and pro-migratory functions, H19 affects the carcinogenic process from different functional points. In addition, H19 has central roles in the induction of chemoresistance in breast cancer, lung cancer, glioma, liver cancer, and other types of cancers. Induction of EMT, activation of oncogenic signaling pathways, and changes in the tumor microenvironment are among mechanisms of participation of H19 in chemoresistance. Paclitaxel, doxorubicin, tamoxifen, erlotinib, gefitinib, temozolomide, and methotrexate are among therapeutic agents whose efficacy is influenced by the expression of H19. In the present paper, we discuss the impact of H19 in conferring resistance to chemotherapeutic agents in different cancers.

Transl Neurosci 2021; 12:103-113. [PMID: 33708438 PMCID: PMC7925972 DOI: 10.1515/tnsci-2021-0013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2020] [Revised: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal cord injury (SCI) is the most serious complication of spinal injury, often leading to severe dysfunction of the limbs below the injured segment. Conventional therapy approaches are becoming less and less effective, and gene therapy is a new research direction by now. METHODS The Sprague-Dawley rats were haphazardly assigned to two groups, namely sham group and SCI model group, and lncRNA H19 and miR-370-3p levels were investigated using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Correlation between lncRNA H19 and miR-370-3p was ascertained by luciferase report assay and RT-qPCR. After transfection with si-H19, miR-370-3p inhibitor, negative controls (NC), or both, primary spinal neurons were subjected to the simulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for inducing in vitro model of SCI. Cell viability, apoptotic rate, caspase-3 activity, Bax and Bcl-2 protein, ROS generation, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 protein, as well as IκBα and p65 phosphorylation ratio were evaluated adopting 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), apoptosis, caspase-3 activity, ROS generation, and western blot assays, thereby searching for the specific action mechanism on LPS-induced spinal never injury. RESULTS SCI resulted in lncRNA H19 higher expression and miR-370-3p lower expression. LPS simulation raised a series of cellular biological changes, such as decreased viability, promoted apoptosis, generated ROS, and released inflammatory factors. lncRNA H19 inhibition reversed above LPS-induced changes. Besides, as the downstream target of lncRNA H19, miR-370-3p was oppositely regulated by lncRNA H19. The above biological changes induced by lncRNA H19 inhibition were reversed by miR-370-3p upregulation. Moreover, lncRNA H19 inhibition could block NF-κB pathway through miR-370-3p upregulation. CONCLUSION Inhibition of lncRNA H19/miR-370-3p mitigated spinal neuron apoptosis in an in vitro model of SCI. This provided the possibility for clinical use of gene therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to study the effect of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 on proliferation, apoptosis and chemosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells. METHODS NP69 and HNE3, C666-1, SUNE1, 6-10B and 5-8F cell lines were selected to detect the expression of lncRNA H19 via RT-qPCR. LncRNA H19 was overexpressed or silenced for exploring the regulatory effect of lncRNA H19 in cell proliferation, clone formation, apoptosis and drug resistance through CCK-8, clone formation experiment and flow cytometry respectively. The tumorigenic effect of lncRNA H19 silencing was verified by xenograft tumor in nude mice. LncRNA H19 was significantly up-regulated in NPC cells. RESULTS Silencing lncRNA H19 inhibited the proliferation of NPC C666-1 cells and promoted apoptosis, while overexpression of lncRNA H19 promoted the proliferation of NPC C666-1 cells and inhibited apoptosis. Knockdown of lncRNA H19 in drug-resistant cells remarkably reduced their drug resistance, and overexpression of lncRNA H19 in parental cells significantly reduced their drug sensitivity. Silencing lncRNA H19 inhibits tumor growth in vivo, and silencing lncRNA H19 combined with paclitaxel can enhance tumor inhibition in vivo. CONCLUSIONS In NPC cells, lncRNA H19 was up-regulated, lncRNA H19 inhibited the proliferation and chemosensitivity of NPC cells, promoted apoptosis, and silencing lncRNA H19 combined with paclitaxel could enhance tumor inhibition in vivo.

LncRNA MIR155HG Promotes Temozolomide Resistance by Activating the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway Via Binding to PTBP1 in Glioma. Cell Mol Neurobiol 2020; 41:1271-1284.

Abstract
Temozolomide (TMZ) is widely used for glioma therapy in the clinic. Currently, the development of TMZ resistance has largely led to poor prognosis. However, very little is understood about the role of MIR155HG, as a long noncoding RNA, in TMZ resistance. In our study, MIR155HG level was markedly higher in glioma patients than in normal controls and that poor survival was positively correlated with MIR155HG expression. It was apparent that TMZ sensitivity was promoted by downregulation of MIR155HG, and this could be reversed by MIR155HG overexpression in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1) was proven to bind with MIR155HG and to regulate MIR155HG-related TMZ resistance. Mechanistic investigation showed that the expression levels of both MIR155HG and PTBP1 influenced the expression of relevant proteins in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Collectively, the study demonstrated that the knockdown of MIR155HG increased glioma sensitivity to TMZ by inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation via potently downregulating PTBP1.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common and aggressive brain tumor in the central nervous system (CNS), in which Wnt signaling pathway has been verified to play a pivotal role in regulating the initiation and progression. Currently, numerous studies have indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical functions across biological processes including cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion and apoptosis via Wnt signaling pathway in glioma. This review depicts canonical and non-canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway properties and relative processing mechanisms in gliomas, and summarizes the function and regulation of lncRNAs mediated by Wnt signaling pathway in the development and progression of glioma. Ultimately, we hope to seek out promising biomarkers and reliable therapeutic targets for glioma.

Oncol Rep 2020; 44:165-173. [PMID: 32627034 PMCID: PMC7251775 DOI: 10.3892/or.2020.7608] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2019] [Accepted: 03/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Sorafenib is the first‑line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Since many HCC patients experience drug resistance, there is an urgent need to discover more effective therapeutic strategies to overcome drug resistance. Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in tumor drug resistance. However, research on the role of lncRNA H19 in sorafenib resistance in HCC is quite limited. In the present study, CCK‑8 assay, RT‑qPCR, EdU staining, immunofluorescence staining, and western blot analysis were used to detect the effect of lncRNA H19 on sorafenib resistance of HCC cells. H19 expression was found to be negatively related to sorafenib sensitivity in HCC cells. Knockdown of lncRNA H19 elevated sorafenib sensitivity by suppressing epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) in HCC cells. H19 upregulated miR‑675 expression. miR‑675 inhibitor decreased the cell viability in sorafenib‑treated HCC cells, while miR‑675 overexpression had the opposite effect on the treated cells. When the cells were pretreated with miR‑675 mimic, H19 siRNA did not alter the effect of miR‑675 on sorafenib sensitivity. In conclusion, our study provides new clues for further clinical treatment of sorafenib‑resistant liver cancer patients.
