    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Aerobic glycolysis is a unique tumor cell phenotype considered as one of the hallmarks of cancer. Aerobic glycolysis can accelerate tumor development by increasing glucose uptake and lactate production. In the present study, lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) is significantly increased within glioma tissue samples and cells, further confirming the oncogenic role of LDHA within glioma. METHODS: Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining were applied for histopathological examination. The protein levels of LDHA, transporter isoform 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2 (HK2), phosphofructokinase (PFK) in target cells were detected by Immunoblotting. The predicted miR-9 binding to lncRNA Annexin A2 Pseudogene 2 (ANXA2P2) or the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of LDHA was verified using Luciferase reporter assay. Cell viability or apoptosis were examined by MTT assay or Flow cytometry. Intracellular glucose and Lactate levels were measured using glucose assay kit and lactate colorimetric assay kit. RESULTS: The expression of ANXA2P2 showed to be dramatically upregulated within glioma tissue samples and cells. Knocking down ANXA2P2 within glioma cells significantly inhibited cell proliferation and aerobic glycolysis, as manifested as decreased lactate and increased glucose in culture medium, and downregulated protein levels of glycolysis markers, GLUT1, HK2, PFK, as well as LDHA. miR-9 was predicted to target both lncRNA ANXA2P2 and LDHA. The overexpression of miR-9 suppressed the cell proliferation and aerobic glycolysis of glioma cells. Notably, miR-9 could directly bind to LDHA 3'UTR to inhibit LDHA expression and decrease the protein levels of LDHA. ANXA2P2 competitively targeted miR-9, therefore counteracting miR-9-mediated repression on LDHA. Within tissues, miR-9 exhibited a negative correlation with ANXA2P2 and LDHA, respectively, whereas ANXA2P2 and LDHA exhibited a positive correlation with each other. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, ANXA2P2/miR-9/LDHA axis modulates the aerobic glycolysis progression in glioma cells, therefore affecting glioma cell proliferation.
