Highlights |
• | LncRNA HOTAIR and YY1 were upregulated in medulloblastoma. |
• | LncRNA HOTAIR acted as a ceRNA by sponging miR-1 and miR-206. |
• | YY1 was identified as the downstream target of miR-1/miR-206. |
• | HOTAIR-miR-1/miR-206-YY1 axis modulated medulloblastoma growth, migration and invasion. |
Abstract |
Purpose |
Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) and Yin Yang 1 (YY1) are reported to be involved in tumorigenesis. However, the effect and molecular mechanism of HOTAIR on YY1 expression remains poorly understood. The study aimed to investigate the functions and molecular mechanism of LncRNA HOTAIR in medulloblastoma progression.
Methods |
qPCR was performed to detect HOTAIR and YY1 mRNA in tissues and cells, as well as that of miR-1 and miR-206 expression levels. Western blot assay was used to test YY1 and EMT-related biomarkers’ protein levels. Cell proliferation was tested with CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay. Migration and invasion abilities were tested with Transwell migration and invasion assays. Tumor growth was tested with an in vivo animal study. Cell apoptosis was tested with an Annexin V-FITC/PI kit. Luciferase assay was used to test the luciferase intensity of YY1 and HOTAIR. RNA pull down assay was used to detect the combination between HOTAIR and miR-1/miR-206.
Results |
In this study, we found that HOTAIR and YY1 were up-regulated in medulloblastoma tissues and cell lines, and HOTAIR increased YY1 expression. The molecular mechanism demonstrated that HOTAIR negatively regulated miR-1 and miR-206 expression, which can directly target YY1 in medulloblastoma cells. Moreover, HOTAIR increased YY1 expression through binding to miR-1 and miR-206. The functional experiments showed that HOTAIR knockdown suppressed medulloblastoma cell proliferation, tumor growth, migration and invasion, and promoted cell apoptosis via the modulation of the miR-1/miR-206-YY1 axis, as well as epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT).
Conclusion |
These data indicate that HOTAIR promotes medulloblastoma progression via acting as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to regulate YY1 expression through binding to miR-1 and miR-206.
