Dishevelled-associated antagonist of β-catenin homolog 3 (DACT3) suppresses glioma progression though Notch1 signaling pathway in β-catenin-dependent manner. Heliyon 2024; 10:e23511. [PMID: 38230242 PMCID: PMC10789601 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e23511] [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: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The disheveled-associated antagonist of β-catenin homolog 3 (DACT3) has been recognized as a tumor suppressor in various cancers. However, the function of DACT3 on glioma malignant progression along with potential molecular mechanisms is poorly clarified. This research aimed to investigate how DACT3 contributes to suppressing the progression of glioma. In our investigation, a pronounced decrease in DACT3 expression was observed in glioma tissues. Through the overexpression of DACT3, we noted a significant suppression in the proliferation, invasion, and migration of glioma cells, while concurrently observing an increase in cell adhesion. Our exploration into the molecular mechanisms revealed that DACT3 executes its tumor-suppressive role by impeding the expression of notch 1 intracellular domain (NICD) and translocating into the nucleus by downregulating the expression of β-catenin. Consequently, this process leads to the suppression of Notch1 signaling. To summarize, our findings reveal the function of DACT3 to inhibit glioma progression via the Notch1 signaling pathway in β-catenin dependent manner. This study stands as the pioneer in examining the role of DACT3 in glioma progression and comprehensively elucidating its molecular mechanisms in glioma development. Therefore, our results suggest that DACT3 holds promise as both a prognostic factor and a potential biomarker for guiding treatment strategies in glioma patients (Graphical Abstract).

Abstract
Gliomas are a deadly primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system, with glioblastoma (GBM) representing the most aggressive type. The clinical prognosis of GBM patients remains bleak despite the availability of multiple options for therapy, which has needed us to explore new therapeutic methods to face the rapid progression, short survival, and therapy resistance of glioblastomas. As the Human Genome Project advances, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have attracted the attention of researchers and clinicians in cancer research. Numerous studies have found aberrant expression of signaling pathways in glioma cells. For example, lncRNAs not only play an integral role in the drug resistance process by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin or PI3K/Akt signaling but are also involved in a variety of malignant biological behaviors such as glioma proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor apoptosis. Therefore, the present review systematically assesses the existing research evidence on the malignant progression and drug resistance of glioma, focusing on the critical role and potential function of lncRNAs in the Wnt/β-catenin and PI3K/Akt classical pathways to promote and encourage further research in this field.

Abstract
Gliomas are the most common central nervous system malignancies, compromising almost 80% of all brain tumors and is associated with significant mortality. The classification of gliomas has shifted from basic histological perspective to one that is based on molecular biomarkers. Treatment of this type of tumors consists currently of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. During the past years, there was a limited development of effective glioma diagnostics and therapeutics due to multiple factors including the presence of blood-brain barrier and the heterogeneity of this type of tumors. Currently, it is necessary to highlight the advantage of molecular diagnosis of gliomas to develop patient targeted therapies based on multiple oncogenic pathway. In this review, we will evaluate the development of cellular and molecular biomarkers for the diagnosis of gliomas and the impact of these diagnostic tools for better tailored and targeted therapies.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent digestive cancers, ranking the 2nd cause of cancer-related fatality worldwide. The worldwide burden of CRC is predicted to rise by 60% by 2030. Environmental factors drive, first, inflammation and hence, cancer incidence increase. Main The Notch-signaling system is an evolutionarily conserved cascade, has role in the biological normal developmental processes as well as malignancies. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have become major contributors in the advancement of cancer by serving as signal pathways regulators. They can control gene expression through post-translational changes, interactions with micro-RNAs or down-stream effector proteins. Recent emerging evidence has emphasized the role of lncRNAs in controlling Notch-signaling activity, regulating development of several cancers including CRC. Conclusion Notch-associated lncRNAs might be useful prognostic biomarkers or promising potential therapeutic targets for CRC treatment. Therefore, here-in we will focus on the role of “Notch-associated lncRNAs in CRC” highlighting “the impact of Notch-associated lncRNAs as player for cancer induction and/or progression.” Graphical Abstract ![]()

Abstract
Glioma, also known as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is the most prevalent and most lethal primary brain tumor in adults. Gliomas are highly invasive tumors with the highest death rate among all primary brain malignancies. Metastasis occurs as the tumor cells spread from the site of origin to another site in the brain. Metastasis is a multifactorial process, which depends on alterations in metabolism, genetic mutations, and the cancer microenvironment. During recent years, the scientific study of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) has led to new insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in glioma. Many studies have reported that ncRNAs play major roles in many biological procedures connected with the development and progression of glioma. Long ncRNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are all types of ncRNAs, which are commonly dysregulated in GBM. Dysregulation of ncRNAs can facilitate the invasion and metastasis of glioma. The present review highlights some ncRNAs that have been associated with metastasis in GBM. miRNAs, circRNAs, and lncRNAs are discussed in detail with respect to their relevant signaling pathways involved in metastasis.

Abstract
The long noncoding RNA CBR3-AS1 has important functions in various cancers. However, the biological functions of CBR3-AS1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the roles and molecular mechanisms of CBR3-AS1 in NSCLC tumorigenesis and radiosensitivity. Here, we demonstrate CBR3-AS1 overexpression in NSCLC tissue compared with adjacent normal tissue. CBR3-AS1 downregulation reduced proliferation, invasion, and migration; inhibited cell cycle progression; and promoted apoptosis of NSCLC cells. CBR3-AS1 also promoted tumor growth in vivo. CBR3-AS1 may regulate the expression and functions of the miR-409-3p target gene SOD1. CBR3-AS1 expression was negatively correlated with radiosensitivity. CBR3-AS1 downregulation decreased post-irradiation SOD1 expression, increased γH2AX formation, raised levels of reactive oxygen species, and promoted apoptosis. Our results suggest that CBR3-AS1 functions as an oncogene through the CBR3-AS1/miR-409-3p/SOD1 pathway, and may represent a new therapeutic target, especially to regulate radiosensitivity in NSCLC.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical regulatory elements in cellular functions in states of both normalcy and disease, including cancer. LncRNAs can influence not only tumorigenesis but also cancer features such as metastasis, angiogenesis and resistance to chemo-and immune-mediated apoptotic signals. Several lncRNAs have been demonstrated to control directly or indirectly the number, type and activities of distinct immune cell populations of adaptive and innate immunities within and without the tumor microenvironment. The disruption of lncRNA expression in both cancer and immune cells may reflect alterations in tumor responses to cancer immunosurveillance and immunotherapy, thus providing new insights into lncRNA biomarker-based prognostic and therapeutic cancer assessment. Here we present an overview on lncRNAs’ functions and underlying molecular mechanisms related to cancer immunity and conventional immunotherapy, with the expectation that any elucidations may lead to a better understanding and management of cancer immune escape and response to current and future immunotherapeutics.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a prognostic biomarker for many types of cancer. Here, we aimed to study the prognostic value of lncRNA in Breast Invasive Carcinoma (BRCA). We downloaded expression profiles from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets. Subsequently, we screened the differentially expressed genes between normal tissues and tumor tissues. Univariate Cox, LASSO regression, and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to construct a lncRNA prognostic model. Finally, a nomogram based on the lncRNAs model was developed, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to predict mRNAs related to the model, and to perform function and pathway enrichment. We constructed a 6-lncRNA prognostic model. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the 6-lncRNA model could be used as an independent prognostic factor for BRCA patients. We developed a nomogram based on the lncRNAs model and age, and showed good performance in predicting the survival rates of BRCA patients. Also, functional pathway enrichment analysis showed that genes related to the model were enriched in cell cycle-related pathways. Tumor immune infiltration analysis showed that the types of immune cells and their expression levels in the high-risk group were significantly different from those in the low-risk group. In general, the 6-lncRNA prognostic model and nomogram could be used as a practical and reliable prognostic tool for invasive breast cancer.

Abstract
Hypoxia has been identified as a common driving factor that contributes to tumor progression, including invasion and metastasis. However, the underlying mechanisms of enhanced invasion and metastasis under hypoxia remain unclear. A hypoxic microenvironment promoted invasion and metastasis of RCC by upregulating the expression of LOC100506178, which we named Hypoxia-Induced lncRNA Associated with Renal Cell Carcinoma (lncHILAR). Knockdown of lncHILAR inhibited cell invasion and migration while overexpression of lncHILAR conversely facilitated cell invasion and migration of RCC cells. Notably, hypoxic RCC cells secreted exosomes packaged with lncHILAR which were taken up by normoxic RCC cells and then drove normoxic cell invasion. Mechanistically, hypoxia-induced-lncHILAR elevated RCC invasion and metastasis by acting as a competing endogenous (ce)RNA for miR-613/206/1-1-3p, which led to the upregulation of Jagged-1 and C-X-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 4 (CXCR4). Activation of the of Jagged-1/Notch/CXCR4 axis induced RCC metastasis. Hypoxia-induced lncHILAR promotes RCC cell invasion and metastasis via ceRNA for the miR-613/206/1-1-3p/Jagged-1/Notch/CXCR4 axis. The novel lncHILAR may thus serve as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in RCC.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs are key regulators of tumor development and progression, with the potential to be biomarkers of tumors. This study aimed to explore the role of PlncRNA-1 in the progression of prostate cancer (PCa). We found that PlncRNA-1 was up-regulated in 85.29% of PCa tissues and could predict the T stage of PCa patients to a certain extent. Results showed that inhibition of PlncRNA-1 expression potentially promoted cell apoptosis, suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of cells, and triggered G2/M cycle arrest in vitro and in vivo. PlncRNA-1 was mainly localized in the nucleus and PlncRNA-1 expression and phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) expression were negatively correlated. Mechanistically, knockdown of PlncRNA-1 increased expression levels of PTEN protein and phosphorylated PTEN protein, and decreased expression levels of Akt protein and phosphorylated Akt protein. Rescue experiments demonstrated that PTEN inhibitors abolished the changes in PTEN/Akt pathway caused by PlncRNA-1 interference. PlncRNA-1 can promote the occurrence and development of PCa via the PTEN/Akt pathway. PlncRNA-1 may, therefore, be a new candidate target for the treatment of PCa.

Abstract
Notch pathway is a signaling cascade with important impacts on cell proliferation, differentiation, developmental processes and tissue homeostasis. This pathway also regulates stem cell properties, thus being involved in both normal developmental processes and metastatic capacity of cancer cells. Lots of lncRNAs and miRNAs have been recognized that control Notch pathway at some levels or their expression is regulated by this pathway. FOXD2-AS1, MEG3, ANRIL, linc-OIP5, lincRNA-p21, CBR3-AS1, HOTAIR, PVT1 and GAS5 are among lncRNAs that interact with Notch signaling. miR-19, miR-21, miR-33a, miR-8/200, miR-34a, miR-146a, miR-37, miR-100, miR-107 and several other miRNAs have functional interplay with this signaling cascade. In the present review article, we have illuminated the interplay between lncRNAs/miRNAs and Notch pathway in two distinct contexts i.e. cancers and non-neoplastic conditions.

Hypomethylation of PlncRNA-1 promoter enhances bladder cancer progression through the miR-136-5p/Smad3 axis. Cell Death Dis 2020; 11:1038. [PMID: 33288752 PMCID: PMC7721747 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-03240-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2020] [Revised: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 11/13/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Apart from being potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) modulate the development and progression of multiple cancers. PlncRNA-1 is a newly discovered lncRNA that exhibits the above properties through multiple regulatory pathways. However, the clinical significance and molecular mechanisms of PlncRNA-1 in bladder cancer have not been established. PlncRNA-1 was found to be overexpressed in 71.43% of bladder cancer tissues. Moreover, the expression level correlated with tumor invasion, T stage, age, and number of tumors, but not with gender, recurrent status, preoperative treatment, pathological grade, and tumor size. The expression level of PlncRNA-1 can, to a certain extent, be used as a predictor of the degree of tumor invasion and T stage among BC patients. Inhibiting PlncRNA-1 expression impaired the proliferation, migration, and invasion of T24 and 5637 bladder cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Specifically, PlncRNA-1 promoter in BC tissues was found to be hypomethylated at position 131 (36157603 on chromosome 21). PlncRNA-1 promoter hypomethylation induces the overexpression of PlncRNA-1. In addition, PlncRNA-1 modulated the expression of smad3 and has-miR-136-5p (miR-136). Conversely, miR-136 regulated the expression of PlncRNA-1 and smad3. PlncRNA-1 mimics competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in its regulation of smad3 expression by binding miR-136. Rescue analysis further revealed that modulation of miR-136 could reverse the expression of smad3 and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) marker proteins impaired by PlncRNA-1. In summary, PlncRNA-1 has important clinical predictive values and is involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of smad3. The PlncRNA-1/miR-136/smad3 axis provides insights into the regulatory mechanism of BC, thus may serve as a potential therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for cancer.

Abstract
Glioma is one of the most common types of tumor of the central nervous system. Due to the aggressiveness and invasiveness of high-level gliomas, the survival time of patients with these tumors is short, at ~15 months, even after combined treatment with surgery, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. Recently, a number of studies have demonstrated that long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs) serve crucial roles in the multistep development of human gliomas. Gliomas acquire numerous biological abilities during multistep development that collectively constitute the hallmarks of glioma. Thus, in this review, the roles of lncRNAs associated with glioma hallmarks and the current and future prospects for their development are summarized.

Abstract
LncRNA PlncRNA-1(PlncRNA-1) participates in breast cancer by upregulating TGF-β1. It is known that TGF-β1 plays an inhibitory role in the inflammatory responses in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Therefore, PlncRNA-1 may also participate in RA. Serum and synovial fibroblasts were obtained from 34 patients with active RA (persistent symptoms), 36 patients with inactive RA (long term of no or few symptoms after active RA) and 40 healthy controls. Expression levels of PlncRNA-1 and TGF-β1 in active RA patients, inactive RA patients and healthy controls were measured by RT-qPCR and ELISA, respectively. Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used to determine the correlation between the expression levels of PlncRNA-1 and TGF-β1. Diagnostic value of PlncRNA-1 for active RA was detected by ROC curve analysis. PlncRNA-1 and TGF-β1 were downregulated in serum of active RA patients but not in inactive RA patients compared to the healthy controls. Expression of PlncRNA-1 and TGF-β1 were positively correlated only in RA patients, and altered expression levels of PlncRNA-1 distinguished the active RA patients from inactive RA patients and healthy controls. PlncRNA-1 and TGF-β1 were also downregulated in synovial fibroblasts derived from RA patients in comparison to inactive RA patients and healthy controls. Overexpression of PlncRNA-1 mediated upregulation of TGF-β1 in synovial fibroblasts derived from RA patients, while exogenous TGF-β1 treatment showed no significant effect on the expression of PlncRNA-1. Therefore, PlncRNA-1 participated in RA possibly by regulating TGF-β1.

Abstract
The Notch signaling is a crucial pathway involved in cellular development, progression, and differentiation. Deregulation of Notch signaling pathway commonly impacts tissue homeostasis, being highly associated with proliferative disorders. The long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides that do not code for proteins, were already described as Notch signaling pathway-interacting molecules. Many of them act as important transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulators, affecting gene expression and targeting other regulatory molecules, such as miRNAs. Due to their strong impact on function and gene expression of Notch-related molecules, lncRNAs influence susceptibility to cancer and other diseases, and can be regarded as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Along this chapter, we summarize the cross talk between the Notch signaling pathway and their most important modulating lncRNAs, as well as the pathological consequences of these interactions, in different tissues.

Abstract
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a foremost cancer-related death worldwide owing to rapid metastasis and poor prognosis. Metastasis, as the most important reason for death, is biologically a multifaceted process involving a range of cell signaling pathways. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), as transcriptional regulators, can regulate numerous genomic processes and cellular processes such as cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. LncRNAs have also been shown to involve in/regulate the cancer metastasis-related signaling pathways. Hence, they have increasingly been brought to international attention in molecular oncology research. A number of researchers have attempted to reveal the biological and clinical relevance of lncRNAs in ESCC tumourigenesis and metastasis. The aberrant expression of these molecules in ESCC has regularly been reported to involve in various cellular processes and clinical features, including diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic responses. Here, we especially consider the pathways in which lncRNAs act as metastasis-mediated effectors, mainly by interacting with epithelial-mesenchymal transition-associated factors. We review the biological roles of lncRNAs through involving in ESCC metastasis as well as the clinical significance of the metastasis-related lncRNAs in cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) get great involvements in the development of countless cancers. Nonetheless, the deep molecular mechanism by which lncRNA regulates the formation of glioma is unclear. In our study, the expression of PSMB8-AS1 was dramatically upregulated in glioma tissues and cells, further, PSMB8-AS1 silencing restrained cell proliferation in glioma, and the results of PSMB8-AS1 overexpression were opposite. Moreover, PSMB8-AS1 could bind with miR-574-5p, which was low expressed in glioma cells. In addition, RAB10 acted the target gene of miR-574-5p, and PSMB8-AS1 could regulate RAB10 via modulating miR-574-5p. Besides, miR-574-5p inhibitor/mimics remedied the repressive/simulative role of PSMB8-AS1 depletion/overexpression, and RAB10 downregulation/upregulation reversed the encouraging/blocked function caused by miR-574-5p inhibitor/mimics in PSMB8-AS1 depletion/overexpression transfected glioma cells. Additionally, ELK1, a transcription factor, could active PSMB8-AS1 expression. To be concluded, PSMB8-AS1 activated by ELK1 promotes cell proliferation in glioma via regulating miR-574-5p/RAB10, which may be contributory to find new targets to treat glioma.

Abstract
Molecular targeted agents, such as sorafenib, remain the only choice of an antitumor drug for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The Notch signaling pathway plays central roles in regulating the cellular injury/stress response, anti-apoptosis, or epithelial–mesenchymal transition process in HCC cells, and is a promising target for enhancing the sensitivity of HCC cells to antitumor agents. The ADAM metalloprotease domain-17 (ADAM-17) mediates the cleavage and activation of Notch protein. In the present study, microRNA-3163 (miR-3163), which binds to the 3′-untranslated region of ADAM-17, was screened using online methods. miRDB and pre-miR-3163 sequences were prepared into lentivirus particles to infect HCC cells. miR-3163 targeted ADAM-17 and inhibited the activation of the Notch signaling pathway. Infection of HCC cells with miR-3163 enhanced their sensitivity to molecular targeted agents, such as sorafenib. Therefore, miR-3163 may contribute to the development of more effective strategies for the treatment of advanced HCC.

Abstract
Malignant tumors, known as cancer, seriously threaten human life and health. Cancer has the characteristics of abnormal cell differentiation, proliferation, invasion and metastasis. As a result, cancer often accompanied by poor prognosis and a lower survival rate. Notch signaling pathway is a highly conserved system in many multicellular organisms, and which has been proved to play a biological role in many cancers. In recent years, increasing evidence has shown that non-coding RNA can not only activate or inhibit NOTCH pathway, but also regulate the occurrence and development of cancer through NOTCH pathway. Therefore, we focus on the cancer-NOTCH-non-coding RNA axis in this review, and provide new ideas for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of biomarkers which can regulate the biological processes of various human cancers. LncRNA HNF1A-AS1 has been reported in human cancers for its oncogenic role. This study focused on the biological function and molecular mechanism of HNF1A-AS1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The high expression of HNF1A-AS1 was examined in OSCC tissues and cell lines. Kaplan Meier method revealed that high expression of HNF1A-AS1 predicted poor prognosis for patients with OSCC. Results of loss-of-function assays demonstrated that silenced HNF1A-AS1 inhibited the proliferation, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of OSCC cells. Mechanically, HNF1A-AS1 was positively regulated by the transcription factor STAT3. Recently, Notch signaling pathway has been reported in human malignancies. In this study, we analyzed the correlation between HNF1A-AS1 and Notch signaling pathway. It was uncovered that the expression of Notch1 and Hes1 (the core factors of Notch signaling pathway) was negatively regulated by HNF1A-AS1 knockdown. Rescue assays further demonstrated the positive regulatory effects of HNF1A-AS1 on Notch signaling pathway in OSCC. In conclusion, upregulation of HNF1A-SA1 induced by transcription factor STAT3 promotes OSCC progression by activating Notch signaling pathway.
