Title: Exosomal miR-200c-3p negatively regulates the migraion and invasion of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated colorectal cancer (CRC). Author: Jiang Y, Ji X, Liu K, Shi Y, Wang C, Li Y, Zhang T, He Y, Xiang M, Zhao R. Journal: BMC Mol Cell Biol; 2020 Jun 29; 21(1):48. PubMed ID: 32600257. Abstract: BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cancer and a major cause of death. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an abundant component in gut microbiome, is involved in CRC progression and metastasis, potentially through regulating the miRNA composition of CRC-derived exosomes. In this study, we aimed to identify miRNA species in exosome which regulates CRC progression after LPS stimulation. RESULTS: Firstly, we discovered a shift of miRNA profile in CRC exosome after LPS stimulation. Among the differentially expressed miRNAs, we identified miR-200c-3p as a potential key regulator of CRC progression and metastasis. Retrospective analysis revealed that miR-200c-3p was elevated in CRC tumor tissues, but decreased in the serum exosome in CRC patients. In vitro experiments demonstrated that exosomal miR-200c-3p expression did not influence CRC cell proliferation, but negatively regulated their capacity of migration and invasion in the presence of LPS. miR-200c-3p level in exosome influenced exosomal expression of Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox-1 (ZEB-1) mRNA, one of the miR-200c targets which affects migration and invasion capacity, and further altered ZEB-1 protein expression in CRC cell. In addition, exosomal miR-200c-3p promotes apoptosis of HCT-116 cells. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that exosomal miR-200c-3p inhibits CRC migration and invasion, and promotes their apoptosis after LPS stimulation. It is suggested as a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target of CRC.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
