This study firstly illustrated that the circPAPD4/miR-1269a/CREBZF/STAT3/ADAR1 positive feedback loop mediated breast cancer progression, and delivering CREBZF mRNA nanoparticles suppressed breast cancer progression in vitro and in vivo, which might provide novel insights into therapeutic strategies for breast cancer.
BackgroundBreast cancer (BC) negatively impacts the health of women worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a group of endogenous RNAs considered essential regulatory factor in BC tumorigenesis and progression. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of circRNAs remain unclear.MethodsExpression levels of circPAPD4, miR-1269a, CREBZF, and ADAR1 in BC cell lines and tissues were measured using bioinformatics analysis, RT-qPCR, ISH, and IHC. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured using CCK8, EdU staining, flow cytometry, and TUNEL assays. Pearson correlation analysis, RNA pull-down, dual-luciferase reporter, and co-immunoprecipitation assays were used to explore the correlation among circPAPD4, miR-1269a, CREBZF, STAT3, and ADAR1. Effects of circPAPD4 overexpression on tumor progression were investigated using in vivo assays. Moreover, CREBZF mRNA delivered by polymeric nanoparticles (CREBZF-mRNA-NPs) was used to examine application value of our findings.ResultsCircPAPD4 expression was low in BC tissues and cells. Functionally, circPAPD4 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, circPAPD4 biogenesis was regulated by ADAR1. And circPAPD4 promoted CREBZF expression by competitively binding to miR-1269a. More importantly, CREBZF promoted circPAPD4 expression by suppressing STAT3 dimerization and ADAR1 expression, revealing a novel positive feedback loop that curbed BC progression. Systematic delivery of CREBZF-mRNA-NPs effectively induced CREBZF expression and activated the positive feedback loop of circPAPD4/miR-1269a/CREBZF/STAT3/ADAR1, which might suppress BC progression in vitro and in vivo.ConclusionOur findings firstly illustrated that circPAPD4/miR-1269a/CREBZF/STAT3/ADAR1 positive feedback loop mediated BC progression, and delivering CREBZF mRNA nanoparticles suppressed BC progression in vitro and in vivo, which might provide novel insights into therapeutic strategies for breast cancer.
