Targeting MALAT1 induces DNA damage and sensitize non-small cell lung cancer cells to cisplatin by repressing BRCA1.
Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology 2020 October 9
PURPOSE: Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is a long non-coding RNA which has been identified to be involved in alternative non-homologous end joining (A-NHEJ) pathways by binding with PARP1 and LIG3 in myeloma cells. This study aims to explore the roles of MALAT1 in DNA repair processes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
METHODS: The interactions between MALAT1 and proteins were identified by co-immunoprecipitation and RNA pulldown. The interactions between MALAT1 and microRNAs (miRNA) were predicted by bioinformatics tools and confirmed by luciferase assay and RNA pulldown. The DNA damages were quantified by comet assay. The cell viability was examined by MTT assay and the cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry.
RESULTS: MALAT1 is identified to be involved in A-NHEJ pathway in NSCLC cells. However, in LIG3-null cells where A-NHEJ pathway is inactivated, targeting MALAT1 still increases DNA damages, suggesting that MALAT1 participates in other DNA repair pathways. Subsequently, MALAT1 is identified to bind with miR-146a and miR-216b, which directly target the 3'UTR of BRCA1. MALAT1 is confirmed to functions as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) absorbing miR-146a and miR-216b, upregulating BRCA1 expression and protecting Homologous Recombination (HR) pathway in NSCLC cells. Finally, overexpression MALAT1 protects NSCLC cells from the cytotoxic effect of cisplatin. While, targeting MALAT1 in NSCLC cells induces DNA damages by repressing HR pathway and sensitizes NSCLC cells to cisplatin which had the potential for NSCLC treatment.
CONCLUSION: MALAT1 is involved in HR pathway by protecting BRCA1 and targeting MALAT1 induces DNA damages in NSCLC.
