ABSTRACT
Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR has been reported to play a key role in regulating various biological processes in various cancers. However, the roles and mechanisms of HOTAIR in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) are still unclear and need to be investigated. In this study, we induced differentiation of four AML cell lines by all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and found HOTAIR was significantly upregulated in the process. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays indicated that C/EBPß upregulated HOTAIR during ATRA induced differentiation in HL-60 cells. By gain- and loss-of-function analysis, we then observed that HOTAIR expression was positively correlated with ATRA-induced differentiation and negatively regulated G1 phase arrest in HL-60 cells. In addition, we found that HOTAIR promoted ATRA-induced differentiation via the regulation of the cell cycle regulator p21 via miR-17-5p. Moreover, we detected the expression of HOTAIR in 84 de novo AML patients, HOTAIR was found significantly downregulated in the AML patients compared to the iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) control group, negatively correlated with the platelet level in M2 patients. In all, our data suggest that HOTAIR may be subtype-specific in AML-M2 patients, also HOTAIR regulates AML differentiation by C/EBPBß/HOTAIR/miR-17-5p/p21 pathway. The findings of the present study provide a novel insight into the mechanism of lncRNA-mediated differentiation and indicate that HOTAIR may be a promising therapeutic target for leukaemia, especially for AML with M2 type.Abbreviation AML acute myeloid leukaemia; APL acute promyelocytic leukaemia; ATRA all-trans retinoic acid; CCK8 cell Counting Kit-8; CDKs cyclin-dependent kinases ; CeRNA competing endogenous RNAs; ChIP chromatin immunoprecipitation; CHX cycloheximide; FAB French-American-British; FCM flow cytometry; HOTAIR HOX transcript antisense RNA; IDA iron-deficiency anemia; lncRNA long non-coding RNA; 3'UTR 3'untranslated region; MT Mutation type; WT Wild type; qRT-PCR Quantitative real-time PCR.
