Disulfidptosis-associated long non-coding RNA signature predicts the prognosis, tumor microenvironment, and immunotherapy and chemotherapy options in colon adenocarcinoma. Cancer Cell Int 2023; 23:218. [PMID: 37759294 PMCID: PMC10523716 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-023-03065-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Disulfidptosis is independent of apoptosis, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis and is associated with cancer progression, treatment response, and prognosis. However, the predictive potential of disulfidptosis-associated lncRNAs in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) and their features in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) require further elucidation. METHODS RNA transcriptome, clinical information, and mutation data of COAD samples were obtained from the TCGA database. The risk model was first constructed by co-expression analysis of disulfidptosis genes and lncRNAs, and prognostic lncRNAs were screened using Cox regression, followed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis. Enrichment analyses were performed to explore the underlying biological functions and signaling of model-associated differentially expressed genes (MADEGs). Moreover, TIME of MADEGs was analyzed to assess the immunotherapy. Finally, the expression levels of the lncRNAs were verified by taking specimens of patients with COAD from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University. RESULTS We constructed a prognosis-related risk model based on four disulfidptosis-associated lncRNAs (ZEB1-AS1, SNHG16, SATB2-AS1, and ALMS1-IT1). By analyzing the survival of patients in the whole, training, and test groups, we found that patients with COAD in the low-risk group had better overall survival than those in the high-risk group. Validation of the model via Cox analysis and clinical indicators demonstrated that the model had a decent potential for predicting the prognosis of patients with COAD. Enrichment analyses revealed that the MADEGs were related to disulfidptosis-associated biological functions and cancer pathways. Furthermore, patients with COAD in the high-risk group had more positive responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) than those in the low-risk group, as confirmed by TIME analysis. ZEB1-AS1, SNHG16, and ALMS1-IT1 were expressed at higher levels in tumor samples than those in the corresponding paracancerous samples (p < 0.05), whereas SATB2-AS1 was upregulated in the paracancerous samples (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This signature may guide prognosis, molecular mechanisms, and treatment strategies, including ICIs and chemotherapy, in patients with COAD.

Abstract
Non–small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has become the most lethal human cancer because of the high rate of metastasis. Hence, clarifying the molecular mechanism underlying NSCLC metastasis is very important to improve the prognosis of patients with NSCLC. Long non‐coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are a class of RNA molecules longer than 200 nucleotides, which can participate in diverse biological processes. About 18% of human LncRNAs were recently found to be associated with tumours. Many studies indicated that aberrant expression of LncRNAs played key roles in the progression and metastasis of NSCLC. According to the function in tumours, LncRNAs can be divided into two classes: oncogenic LncRNAs and tumour‐suppressor LncRNAs. In this review, we summarized the main molecular mechanism of LncRNAs regulating NSCLC metastasis, including three aspects: (a) LncRNAs interact with miRNAs as ceRNAs; (b) LncRNAs bind with target proteins; and (c) LncRNAs participate in the transduction of different signal pathways. Then, LncRNAs can exert their function to regulate the metastasis of NSCLC through influencing the progression of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the properties of cancer stem cell (CSC). But, it is necessary to do some further research to demonstrate the LncRNAs particular regulatory mechanism of inhibiting the metastasis of NSCLC and explore new drugs targeting LncRNAs.

Choice of Alternative Polyadenylation Sites, Mediated by the RNA-Binding Protein Elavl3, Plays a Role in Differentiation of Inhibitory Neuronal Progenitors. Front Cell Neurosci 2019; 12:518. [PMID: 30687010 PMCID: PMC6338052 DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2018.00518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2018] [Accepted: 12/12/2018] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a widespread mechanism involving about half of the expressed genes, resulting in varying lengths of the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR). Variations in length and sequence of the 3′UTR may underlie changes of post-transcriptional processing, localization, miRNA targeting and stability of mRNAs. During embryonic development a large array of mRNAs exhibit APA, with a prevalence of the longer 3′UTR versions in differentiating cells. Little is known about polyA+ site usage during differentiation of mammalian neural progenitors. Here we exploit a model of adherent neural stem (ANS) cells, which homogeneously and efficiently differentiate into GABAergic neurons. RNAseq data shows a global trend towards lengthening of the 3′UTRs during differentiation. Enriched expression of the longer 3′UTR variants of Pes1 and Gng2 was detected in the mouse brain in areas of cortical and subcortical neuronal differentiation, respectively, by two-probes fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Among the coding genes upregulated during differentiation of ANS cells we found Elavl3, a neural-specific RNA-binding protein homologous to Drosophila Elav. In the insect, Elav regulates polyA+ site choice while interacting with paused Pol-II promoters. We tested the role of Elavl3 in ANS cells, by silencing Elavl3 and observed consistent changes in 3′UTR length and delayed neuronal differentiation. These results indicate that choice of the polyA+ site and lengthening of 3′UTRs is a possible additional mechanism of posttranscriptional RNA modification involved in neuronal differentiation.

Abstract
Application of stem cells in combination with nanofibrous substrates is an interesting biomimetic approach for enhanced regeneration of damaged tissues such as bone and cartilage. The investigation of the complex interplay between nanotopographical cues of niche and noncoding RNAs in stem cells fate is an effective tool to find a new strategy for enhancing the induction of osteogenesis. In this study, we investigated the effects of aligned and random orientations of nanofibers as a natural ECM-mimicking environment on the network of noncoding RNA in mesenchymal stem cells. Aligned and randomly oriented Ploy (L-lactide) PLLA scaffolds were fabricated via electrospinning. Human Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hASCs) were isolated from adipose tissue and were cultured on surfaces of these scaffolds. Their capacity to support hMSCs proliferation was also investigated by MTT assay and the expression of c-Myc gene. Then, after 7, 14 and 21 days, the osteogenic commitment of hMSCs and the miRNA regulatory network in BMP signaling pathway were evaluated by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, extracellular calcium deposition, and bone-related gene activation by Real-Time PCR. Furthermore, osteogenic differentiation was evaluated with regard to their noncoding RNA network. Our results for the first time showed an interaction between nanotopographical cues and miRNA activity in hMSCs. We found that the nanotopographical cues could be used to influence the osteogenic differentiation process of hMSCs through the modulation of lncRNAs and miR-125b as negative regulators of osteogenesis as well as the H19 modulator BMP signaling pathway that acts as a miRNA sponge. Moreover, we also demonstrated for the first time that MEG3 as a long noncoding RNA is controlled by miR-125b and microRNA-triggered lncRNA decay mechanism. This strategy seems to be an important tool for controlling stem cell fate in engineered tissues and provide new insights into most biocompatible scaffolds for bone-graft substitutes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The regulatory roles of long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) in humans have been revealed through the use of advanced sequencing technology. Recently, three possible scenarios of lincRNA origins have been proposed: de novo origination from intergenic regions, duplication from other long noncoding RNAs, and pseudogenization from protein-coding genes. The first two scenarios are largely studied and supported, yet few studies focused on the evolution from pseudogenized protein-coding sequence to lincRNA. Due to the non-mutually exclusive nature of these three scenarios and the need of systematic investigation of lincRNA origination, we conducted a comparative genomics study to investigate the evolution of human lincRNAs. RESULTS Combining with syntenic analysis and stringent Blastn e-value cutoff, we found that the majority of lincRNAs are aligned to intergenic regions of other species. Interestingly, 193 human lincRNAs could have protein-coding orthologs in at least two of nine vertebrates. Transposable elements in these conserved regions in human genome are much less than expectation. Moreover, 19% of these lincRNAs have overlaps with or are close to pseudogenes in the human genome. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that a notable portion of lincRNAs could be derived from pseudogenized protein-coding genes. Furthermore, based on our computational analysis, we hypothesize that a subset of these lincRNAs could have potential to regulate their paralogs by functioning as competing endogenous RNAs. Our results provide evolutionary evidence of the relationship between human lincRNAs and protein-coding genes.

Abstract
The long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which constitute a large portion of the transcriptome, have gained intense research interest because of their roles in regulating physiological and pathophysiological functions in the cell. We identified from RNA-Seq profiling a set of lncRNAs in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) that are differentially regulated by atheroprotective vs. atheroprone shear flows. Among the comprehensively annotated lncRNAs, including both known and novel transcripts, LINC00341 is one of the most abundant lncRNAs in endothelial cells. Moreover, its expression level is enhanced by atheroprotective pulsatile shear flow and atorvastatin. Overexpression of LINC00341 suppresses the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) and the adhesion of monocytes induced by atheroprone flow and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Underlying this anti-inflammatory role, LINC00341 guides enhancer of zest homolog 2, a core histone methyltransferase of polycomb repressive complex 2, to the promoter region of the VCAM1 gene to suppress VCAM1. Network analysis reveals that the key signaling pathways (e.g., Rho and PI3K/AKT) are co-regulated with LINC00341 in endothelial cells in response to pulsatile shear. Together, these findings suggest that LINC00341, as an example of lncRNAs, plays important roles in modulating endothelial function in health and disease.

Abstract
A close cooperation between chromatin states, transcriptional modulation, and epigenetic modifications is required for establishing appropriate regulatory circuits underlying self-renewal and differentiation of adult and embryonic stem cells. A growing body of research has established that the epigenome topology provides a structural framework for engaging genes in the non-random chromosomal interactions to orchestrate complex processes such as cell-matrix interactions, cell adhesion and cell migration during lineage commitment. Over the past few years, the functional dissection of the epigenetic landscape has become increasingly important for understanding gene expression dynamics in stem cells naturally found in most tissues. Adult stem cells of the human dental pulp hold great promise for tissue engineering, particularly in the skeletal and tooth regenerative medicine. It is therefore likely that progress towards pulp regeneration will have a substantial impact on the clinical research. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge regarding epigenetic cues that have evolved to regulate the pluripotent differentiation potential of embryonic stem cells and the lineage determination of developing dental pulp progenitors.

Abstract
Lung carcinoma (LC) is one of the most mortal malignant tumors, and is becoming one of most lethal threat to human health and life. LncRNAs, emerging non-coding RNAs but poorly understood, are involved in the proliferation, metastasis, infiltration and apoptosis of LC. In this study, an lncRNA BANCR in LC cells was chosen to investigate the effect on LC cells, and clarify the possible mechanism. The results showed that BANCR levels were downregulated in LC cells. When BANCR expression was improved by tranfection with pcDNA-BANCR vector, tumor growth was suppressed. Vise versa, when BANCR was knockdown by si-BANCR, cell proliferation and migration of LC were remarkably promoted. We further found that MAPK pathways were involved in the BANCR-mediated cell proliferation and migration of LC. Moreover, BANCR was found to regulate LC proliferation and migration via not ERK MAPK, but p38 MAPK and JNK inactivations. These findings not only suggested that BANCR may be a new target for LC chemotherapy in future, but also will help us to fully understand the oncogenesis of LC.
