miR-451a suppresses the proliferation and migration of high-grade serous ovarian cancer by targeting RAB5A through the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway
Background
Ovarian cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Profiles changes of microRNAs (miRNAs) are closely linked to malignant tumors. In the present study, we investigated expression of miR-451a in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). We also investigated the potential pathological roles and the likely mechanism of miR-451a in the development of HGSOC using animal models and cell lines.
Methods
Using bioinformatics techniques and a real-time PCR, we analyzed differently expressed miRNAs in HGSOC compared to normal tissue. MTT (i.e. 3-[4, 5-dimethyl thiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide), EDU (i.e. 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) and transwell assays were performed to investigate the effect of miR-451a on the proliferation and migration of HGSOC SKOV-3 cells. A dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify the targeting relationship of miR-451 and RAB5A (one of the Rab GTPase proteins that regulates endocytosis and vesicle transport). Also, we analyzed levels of the RAB5A mRNA and protein by real-time PCR, western blotting and immunohistochemistry assays in HGSOC cells and tissues. Finally, we performed in vivo experiments using HGSOC mice.
Results
miR-451a was substantially upregulated in HGSOC and associated with favorable clinical characteristics. miR-451a knockdown significantly increased growth and metastasis of HGSOC cell line SKOV-3 through Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling. In addition, RAB5A, an early endosome marker, was shown to be a direct target of miR-451a. Moreover, RAB5A is correlated with unfavorable clinical features and shows independent prognostic significance in HGSOC.
Conclusions
We found that the miR-451a/RAB5A axis is associated with tumorigenesis and progression through the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway, providing prognostic indicators and therapeutic targets for patients with HGSOC.
期刊介绍：
The aims and scope of The Journal of Gene Medicine include cutting-edge science of gene transfer and its applications in gene and cell therapy, genome editing with precision nucleases, epigenetic modifications of host genome by small molecules, siRNA, microRNA and other noncoding RNAs as therapeutic gene-modulating agents or targets, biomarkers for precision medicine, and gene-based prognostic/diagnostic studies.
Key areas of interest are the design of novel synthetic and viral vectors, novel therapeutic nucleic acids such as mRNA, modified microRNAs and siRNAs, antagomirs, aptamers, antisense and exon-skipping agents, refined genome editing tools using nucleic acid /protein combinations, physically or biologically targeted delivery and gene modulation, ex vivo or in vivo pharmacological studies including animal models, and human clinical trials.
Papers presenting research into the mechanisms underlying transfer and action of gene medicines, the application of the new technologies for stem cell modification or nucleic acid based vaccines, the identification of new genetic or epigenetic variations as biomarkers to direct precision medicine, and the preclinical/clinical development of gene/expression signatures indicative of diagnosis or predictive of prognosis are also encouraged.
