Reciprocal regulation of PCGEM1 and miR-145 promote proliferation of LNCaP prostate cancer cells

Abstract: Prostate cancer gene expression marker 1 (PCGEM1) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) overexpressed in prostate cancer (PCa) cells that promotes PCa initiation and progression, and protects against chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. The microRNA miR-145 functions as a tumor suppressor in PCa. We speculate that reciprocal regulation of PCGEM1 and miR-145 promote proliferation of LNCaP prostate cancer cells. To test this hypothesis, the interaction between PCGEM1 and miR-145 was examined using a luciferase reporter a… Show more

“…Although radiotherapy chemotherapy and primary treatment approaches for CRC can prolong life expectancy and reduce patient burden, the CRC prognosis remains poor (22,23). LncRNAs were recently demonstrated to play vital roles as major regulators of gene expression and cancer cell proliferation (24) in multiple cancers. Several lncRNAs have been identified as regulators in CRC cell proliferation and metastasis (25).…”

“…Increased expression of PCGEM1 gene is related to increased cell proliferation and colony formation, an indication that the altered expression of this gene contribute to the development and/or progression of prostate cancer in androgen independent cells [23]. Furthermore, the use of an siRNA PCGEM1 by He et al [80] inhibited cell growth and reduced cell migration and colony formation in LNCaP cells, confirming that the key role of this gene in prostate cancer associated to hyperproliferation and (or) metastasis [23]. Yet, PCGEM1 gene is also overexpressed in castration resistance prostate cancer.…”

“…More interestingly, the roles of miRNA have proven to be indispensable in affecting cancer biology, including proliferation, autophagy, apoptosis, and invasiveness [ 10 - 14 ]. Accumulating data have suggested that miRNAs are involved in the tumorigenesis and progression of prostate cancer and act as a tumor suppressors or oncogenes [ 15 - 20 ]. MiR-203, a putative tumor suppressor gene, has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation and invasion and modulate the chemotherapy response in a variety of tumor cells, including lung cancer cells, glioma cells, and breast cancer cells [ 21 - 24 ].…”
