Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and the clinicopathological features in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the influence of the BCRP expression on the proliferation and apoptosis of HCC cells.Methods To detect the expression of BCRP in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR),and analyze the relationship with clinicopathological parameters;BCRP-small interfering RNA (siRNA) was transfected into human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells by LipofectamineTM 2000 liposome mediated method;cell proliferation,apoptosis and BCRP,proliferation cell nuclear antigen (Ki-67),B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 associated X protein (bax),Notch1 and Hes1 protein expression were detected by methyl thiazol tetrazolium (MTT) method,flow cytometry and Western blotting,respectively.Results The expression of BCRP in HCC was not related to the sex,age and tumor size of HCC patients,and it was related to pathological grade,clinical stage and metastasis of tumor;expression of BCRP in SMMC-7721 cells after BCRP-siRNA was transfected cells was inhibited in the level of transcription and translation;cell proliferation (0.287 ± 0.022) and expression of Ki-67 (0.142 ± 0.018),Notch1 (0.162 ± 0.021) and Hes1 (0.111 ± 0.015) protein in BCRP-siRNA group were significantly lower than Control group (0.411 ±0.026,0.258 ±0.026,0.462 ±0.032,0.241 ±0.023;Pproliferation =0.001,PKi-67=0.001,PNotch1 =0.000,PHesl =0.001),the apoptosis rate (14.63 ±0.88)% and the expression of bax protein (0.324±0.034) was significantly higher than Control group ([1.32 ±0.15)%,0.106 ± 0.012;Papoptosis =0.000,Pbax =0.000].Conclusion The expression of BCRP is related to pathological grade,clinical stage and metastasis of HCC,inhibition of its expression can reduce the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and induce cell apoptosis,the mechanism is related to the regulation of Ki-67,bax expression and Notch1 signaling pathway.
Objective: To explore the core mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) in the regulation of multidrug resistance of pancreatic cancer cells. Methods: mRNA levels of GAS5, miR-181c-5p and Hippo pathway related genes were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Protein levels of MDR-1, MST1, YAP and TAZ were measured by western blot. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay. The combination between GAS5 and miR-181c-5p was confirmed by RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. We also established pancreatic cancer-bearing mice model and analyzed tumor volumes. Results: Our data showed GAS5 expression was significantly down-regulated, miR-181c-5p expression was significantly up-regulated in pancreatic cancer cells. Besides, Overexpresson of GAS5 obviously inhibited cell viability, while GAS5 knockdown showed the opposite outcome. Additionally, we also found that GAS5 negatively regulated miR-181c-5p, and miR-181c-5p dramatically promoted pancreatic cancer cell chemoresistance through inactivating the Hippo signaling. GAS5 regulated chemoresistance and Hippo pathway of pancreatic cancer cells via miR-181c-5p/Hippo. Finally, we confirmed that overexpression of GAS5 inhibited tumor growth in pancreatic cancer-bearing mice model. Conclusion: GAS5 regualtes Hippo signaling pathway via miR-181c-5p to antagonize the development of multidrug resistance in pancreatic cancer cells.

Background: Long non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (lncRNA GAS5) is a well-known tumor suppressor in the pathogenesis of a variety of human cancers. The precise role of GAS5 in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression is currently unknown, so the aim of this study was to explore the functional participation of GAS5 in PC metastasis. Methods: The expression changes of GAS5, miR-32-5p and PTEN in human PC specimens and cell lines were compared by means of molecular biology methods. Transfection of the recombinant plasmid was applied to modulate the expression levels of the target genes. RIP and RNA pull-down assays were designed to investigate the interaction between GAS5 and miR-32-5p. The effect of GAS5 and miR-32-5p on PC progression was assessed with cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis in vitro. Results: GAS5 and PTEN protein were decreased in human PC tissues and cells, but miR-32-5p was increased. GAS5 induction greatly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells PANC-1 and BxPC-3 in vitro and simultaneously induced cell apoptosis. Moreover, GAS5 positively regulated the expression of PTEN through miR-32-5p. Furthermore, GAS5 suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells through regulating miR-32-5p/PTEN axis. Additionally, this finding was further supported by the results of in vivo experiments. Conclusion: GAS5 could positively regulate PTEN-induced tumor-suppressor pathway via miR-32-5p, thereby suppressing PC metastasis.
