LncRNA Genes of the SNHG Family: Co-methylation and Common Functions in Ovarian Cancer. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The small nucleolar RNA host gene (SNHG) family may contribute to cancer development by creating long non-coding RNAs and affecting ribosome production and small nucleolar RNA formation.
  • A study analyzing 122 ovarian cancer samples found significant increases in the methylation levels of five SNHG family lncRNA genes, linking these changes to factors like tumor progression and metastasis.
  • Additionally, there was a notable co-methylation among four of these genes and predictions of their interactions with specific microRNAs, suggesting their collective role in ovarian cancer pathogenesis.

Article Abstract

Genes of the small nucleolar RNA host gene (SNHG) family may participate in oncogenesis through the regulatory functions of encoded long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and by influencing formation of small nucleolar RNAs and ribosome biogenesis. The aim of this work was to evaluate changes in the methylation levels and extent of co-methylation of the SNHG family lncRNA genes (, , , , ) in clinical samples of ovarian cancer (OC) as an indication for the similarity of their roles in oncogenesis. Analysis of a representative set of 122 OC samples by quantitative methylation-specific PCR showed a statistically significant ( < 0.01-0.0001) increase in the methylation level of all five studied lncRNA genes. There was also a correlation between the increased methylation levels of , , and and OC progression (clinical stage, tumor size, and metastasis), indicating possible functional significance of hypermethylation of these genes. For four genes (, , , and ), a statistically significant pairwise positive correlation of methylation levels (co-methylation) was observed ( > 0.35;  ≤ 0.001), which was in agreement with the GEPIA 2.0 data (426 OC samples) showing co-expression of these genes ( > 0.5;  < 0.001). The correlation between the expression levels of and was confirmed by RT-qPCR ( = 0.46;  = 0.007). Bioinformatics analysis predicted miRNAs common for the , , , and lncRNA and potentially capable of interacting with one or more of these lncRNAs via competing endogenous RNA mechanism, as well as mRNAs, whose expression might be affected by the studied lncRNAs. We also investigated a possible involvement of genes for these mRNAs in oncogenesis-related processes, such as RNA processing and splicing and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. As a result of this work, four SNHG family lncRNAs with coregulation and joint putative biological functions in the pathogenesis of OC were identified.
