Abstract:
:Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Accumulating research has highlighted the ability of exosome-encapsulated microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) as potential circulating biomarkers for lung cancer. The current study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of serum-derived exosomal miR-let-7e as a biomarker in the metastasis of NSCLC. Initially, the expression of miR-let-7e, SUV39H2, and CDH1 in human NSCLC tissues and exosomes isolated from the serum of NSCLC patients was determined by RT-qPCR, demonstrating that miR-let-7e was downregulated in NSCLC tissues and serum-derived exosomes, while SUV39H2 was upregulated in NSCLC tissues. Kaplan-Meier method revealed that both lower miR-let-7e expression and higher SUV39H2 expression were correlated with a lower survival rate of NSCLC patients. Next, SUV39H2 was predicted and validated to be a target of miR-let-7e using dual-luciferase reporter assay. NSCLC H1299 cells following ectopic expression and depletion experiments of miR-let-7e and SUV39H2 were treated with serum-derived exosomes, after which the viability, migration, and invasion of H1299 cells were detected using CCK-8 and Transwell assays. Further, in vivo experiments were conducted to elucidate the effect of exosomal miR-let-7e on tumorigenesis. Results revealed that miR-let-7e overexpression in serum-derived exosomes inhibited SUV39H2, resulting in impaired cell viability, migration, and invasion in vitro as well as delayed tumor growth in vivo. In conclusion, the key findings of the current study demonstrate that exosomal miR-let-7e from serum possesses anticarcinogenic properties against NSCLC via the SUV39H2/LSD1/CDH1 axis.
