Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Cholangiocarcinoma (cca)
Pubmed ID:  29642935
Enhancer experiment: Cell transfection,RT-qPCR,Flow cytometry,TUNEL assay,Caspase-3/9 activity assay,CCK-8 assay,immunofluorescence staining,Luciferase reporter assay,RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay,Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay,Western blotting,immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays,
Enhancer experiment description: SPRY4-IT1 was abnormally upregulated in CCA tissues and cells, and this upregulation was correlated with tumor stage and tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage in CCA patients. SPRY4-IT1 overexpression was also an unfavorable prognostic factor for patients with CCA. Additionally, SP1 could bind directly to the SPRY4-IT1 promoter region and activate its transcription. Furthermore, SPRY4-IT1 silencing caused tumor suppressive effects via reducing cell proliferation, migration and invasion; inducing cell apoptosis and reversing the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in CCA cells. Mechanistically, enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) along with the lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) or DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) were recruited by SPRY4-IT1, which functioned as a scaffold. Importantly, SPRY4-IT1 positively regulated the expression of EZH2 through sponging miR-101-3p.Our data illustrate how SPRY4-IT1 plays an oncogenic role in CCA and may offer a potential therapeutic target for treating CCA.
