| 11564571 | The miR27b-CCNG1-P53-miR-508-5p axis regulates multidrug resistance of gastric cancer. | Shang Y, etal., Oncotarget. 2016 Jan 5;7(1):538-49. doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.6374. | Multidrug resistance (MDR) correlates with treatment failure and poor prognosis among gastric cancer (GC) patients. In a previous study using high-throughput functional screening, we identified 11 microRNAs (miRNAs) that regulate MDR in GC and found that miR-508-5p reversed MDR by targeting ABCB1 an d ZNRD1. However, the mechanism by which miR-508-5p was decreased in chemo-resistant GC cells was unclear. In this study, we found that ectopic miR-27b is sufficient to sensitize tumors to chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, miR-27b directly targets the 3' untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) of CCNG1, a well-known negative regulator of P53 stability. Interestingly, miR-27b up-regulation leads to increased miR-508-5p expression, and this phenomenon is mediated by CCNG1 and P53. Further investigation indicated that miR-508-5p is directly regulated by P53. Thus, the miR-27b/CCNG1/P53/miR-508-5p axis plays important roles in GC-associated MDR. In addition, miR-27b and miR-508-5p expression was detected in GC tissues with different chemo-sensitivities, and we found that tissues in which miR-27b and miR-508-5p are up-regulated are more sensitive to chemotherapy. Together, these data suggest that the combination of miR-27b and miR-508-5p represents a potential marker of MDR. Restoring the miR-27b and miR-508-5p levels might contribute to MDR reversion in future clinical practice. | 26623719 | 2016-11-01 |

OBJECTIVE: The roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been widely exploited in cancer. MiRNAs have become a potential breakthrough in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Here, the regulatory mechanism of microRNA-488 (miR-488) was investigated in ovarian cancer (OC).
PATIENTS AND METHODS: ... (more)>The expression levels of miR-488 and CCNG1 (Cyclin G1) were detected by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot assays. Transwell assay and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers were used to clarify the effect of miR-488 on cell metastasis. The dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the relation between miR-488 and CCNG1.
RESULTS: The expression of miR-488 was reduced in OC, which was associated with poor clinical outcomes and prognosis in OC patients. MiR-488 inhibited cell metastasis in OC by blocking EMT and promoting tumor suppressor p53 expression. In addition, CCNG1 was confirmed as a direct target of miR-488. Upregulation of CCNG1 impaired the inhibitory effect of miR-488 in OC.
CONCLUSIONS: MiR-488 serves as a tumor inhibitor in OC by suppressing cell metastasis, indicating that miR-488 has a great potential in the diagnosis and treatment of OC. | 32271408 | 2020-12-01 |
| 151361205 | CCNG1 (Cyclin G1) regulation by mutant-P53 via induction of Notch3 expression promotes high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) tumorigenesis and progression. | Xu Y, etal., Cancer Med. 2019 Jan;8(1):351-362. doi: 10.1002/cam4.1812. Epub 2018 Dec 18. | TP53 mutation is considerably common in advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and significantly associated with a poor prognosis. In this study, we investigated the role of Cyclin G1 (CCNG1), a target gene of wild-type TP53 (P53wt), in HGSOC and the possible regulatory mechanism between TP53 mutant (P53mt) and CCNG1 in the progression of HGSOC. High expression level of CCNG1 was found in 61.3% of HGSOC tissues and only 18.2% in fimbriae of fallopian tubes. Additionally, overexpression of CCNG1 was significantly associated with a shorter overall survival (P < 0.0001) and progression-free survival (P < 0.0004) in HGSOC patients. In vitro, CCNG1 promoted both tumor cell motility by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and resistance to cisplatin (CDDP). In vivo, knockdown expression of CCNG1 inhibited cancer metastasis. Furthermore, P53mt increased the expression of CCNG1 by regulating Notch3 expression, and a positive correlation between CCNG1 and Notch3 protein expression was observed by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) (r = 0.39, P: 0.01528). In conclusion, the activation of P53mt-Notch3-CCNG1 pathway was responsible for tumor progression to advanced disease with correlation with worse prognosis in patients with HGSOC. These data suggest a possible molecular mechanism of disease and highlights CCNG1's potential role as a therapeutic target in HGSOC. | 30565428 | 2019-12-01 |
| 151356990 | Long non‑coding RNA OIP5‑AS1 facilitates the progression of ovarian cancer via the miR‑128‑3p/CCNG1 axis. | Liu Y, etal., Mol Med Rep. 2021 May;23(5). pii: 388. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.12027. Epub 2021 Mar 24. | Long non‑coding RNA (LncRNA) o‑phthalaldehyde-interacting protein 5 antisense transcript 1 (OIP5‑AS1) serves major roles in the progression of various types of cancer. The present study investigated its biological function in ovarian cancer (OC) and its mechanisms. The levels of OIP5‑AS1, microRNA‑1 28‑3p (miR‑128‑3p) and cyclin G1 (CCNG1) were examined by reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. Cell viability, apoptosis, migration and invasion were detected to analyze cellular progression. Glycolytic metabolism was assessed by detecting the levels of glucose consumption and lactate production. CCNG1 and hexokinase 2 protein levels were measured by western blotting. Dual‑luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull‑down assays were performed to affirm the interaction between two molecules. OIP5‑AS1 was found to be upregulated in OC tissues and cells. Knockdown of OIP5‑AS1 suppressed cell viability, migration, invasion and glycolysis while promoting apoptosis in OC cells. OIP5‑AS1 interacted with miR‑128‑3p and functioned as an oncogene by sequestering miR‑128‑3p. In addition, CCNG1 was a target gene for miR‑128‑3p and miR‑128‑3p regulated the CCNG1‑induced effects on OC cells by downregulating CCNG1. OIP5‑AS1 upregulated the expression of CCNG1 via targeting miR‑128‑3p. OIP5‑AS1 knockdown also inhibited tumor growth of OC in vivo by modulating the expression of miR‑128‑3p and CCNG1. Collectively, these data illustrated that the oncogenic role of OIP5‑AS1 in OC was associated with the miR‑128‑3p/CCNG1 axis at least in part. OIP5‑AS1 might be a probable diagnostic and therapeutic biomarker for the treatment of OC patients. | 33760168 | 2021-12-01 |
