Abstract Background Glioma, the most common primary brain tumor, account Preparing figures for 30 to 40% of all intracranial tumors. Herein, we aimed to study the effects of M2 macrophage-derived exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) on glioma cells. Methods First, we identified seven differentially expressed miRNAs in infiltrating macrophages and detected the expression of these seven miRNAs in M2 macrophages. We then selected hsa-miR-15a-5p (miR-15a) and hsa-miR-92a-3p (miR-92a) for follow-up studies, and confirmed that miR-15a and miR-92a were under-expressed in M2 macrophage exosomes. Subsequently, we demonstrated that M2 macrophage-derived exosomes promoted migration and invasion of glioma cells, while exosomal miR-15a and miR-92a had the opposite effects on glioma cells. Next, we performed the target gene prediction in four databases and conducted target gene validation by qRT-PCR, western blot and dual luciferase reporter gene assays. Results The results revealed that miR-15a and miR-92a were bound to CCND1 and RAP1B, respectively. Western blot assays demonstrated that interference with the expression of CCND1 or RAP1B reduced the phosphorylation level of AKT and mTOR, indicating that both CCND1 and RAP1B can activate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Conclusion Collectively, these findings indicate that M2 macrophage-derived exosomal miR-15a and miR-92a inhibit cell migration and invasion of glioma cells through PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a progressive and benign disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Though endometriosis is a benign disease, it has the characteristics of malignant tumour growth. Abnormal expression of T-cadherin is involved in the occurrence and progression of many tumours. We aimed to investigate whether T-cadherin promotes the migration and invasion of endometriosis cells through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Methods: Ectopic and eutopic endometrial samples from 62 female patients with endometriosis and endometrial samples from 51 female patients without endometriosis were collected. The immortalized endometrial stromal cell line hEM15A was cultured. Real-time RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the expression of T-cadherin, phospho-PI3K/Akt/mTOR and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2). Transfection technology was employed to upregulate T-cadherin expression. The migration and invasion abilities of hEM15A cells were measured by the transwell assay with uncoated or Matrigel-coated membranes. Results: The mRNA and protein expression of T-cadherin was significantly decresed in the ectopic tissues of the patients with endometriosis, while the mRNA and protein expression in the eutopic endometrial tissues of the same patients did not significantly differ from that in the patients without endometriosis. The migration and invasion ability and phospho-PI3K/Akt/mTOR and MMP-2 expression levels were decreased in hEM15A cells with high T-cadherin expression compared with the corresponding parameters in the normal control group. However, everolimus and BEZ235 inhibited cell migration and invasion in cells with low T-cadherin expression, and weakened overexpression of T‑cadherin significantly attenuated MMP-2 protein expression. Conclusion: Loss of T-cadherin promotes cell migration and invasion in endometriosis via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling pathway.

Abstract MiRNA operates as a tumor suppressor or carcinogen to regulate cell proliferation, metastasis, invasion, differentiation, apoptosis and metabolic process. In the present research, we investigated the effect and mechanism of miR496 in human gastric cancer cells. Cell proliferation was measured by CCK8 and clonogenic assay. Transwell test was performed to detect cell migration and invasion. Flow cytometry analysis was used to evaluate cell apoptosis. Bioinformatics software targetscan was used for the screening of miR-496’s target gene. MiR-496 was down regulated in three gastric cancer cell lines, SGC-790, AGS and MKN45 compared with normal gastric epithelial cell line GES-1. MiR-496 mimics inhibited the proliferation of AGS cells after the transfection for 48 h and 72 h. The migration and invasion of AGS cells were also inhibited by the transfection of miR-496 mimics. In addition, miR-496 mimics induced the apoptosis through up regulating the levels of Bax and Active Caspase3 and down regulating the levels of Bcl-2 and Total Caspase3. Bioinformatics analysis showed that there was a binding site between miR-496 and LYN kinase (LYN). MiR-496 mimics could inhibit the expression of LYN in AGS cells. The overexpression of LYN blocked the inhibition of tumor cell growth, as well as the inhibition of AKT/mTOR signaling pathway induced by miR-496 in gastric cancer cells. In conclusion, miR-496 inhibited the proliferation through the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway via targeting LYN in gastric cancer cells. Our research provides a new potential target for clinical diagnosis and targeted treatment of gastric cancer.
