Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant cancers among women and a major clinical obstacle. Although studies have reported the abnormal expression of SIRT7 in breast cancer, whether the function of SIRT7 regulates the expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in breast cancer remains unknown. We aimed to determine the differential expressions of mRNAs and lncRNAs associated with SIRT7 and understand the regulatory mechanism of SIRT7 in breast cancer. RNA sequencing was performed to explore the transcriptome in MDA-MB-231 cells after SIRT7 depletion, and a total of 50,634 different transcripts were identified. In comparison with the negative control, siSIRT7 groups showed 240 differentially expressed mRNAs and 26 differentially expressed lncRNAs. Gene ontology analysis revealed that the differentially expressed mRNAs mainly regulated DNA replication, CXCR chemokine receptor binding, and maturation of large subunit rRNA from tricistronic rRNA transcript, nucleoplasm, mitochondrion, and NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis showed that the differentially expressed mRNAs were mainly involved in pathways associated with MAPK signaling pathway, tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, hepatitis B, and cancer. Moreover, the target genes of the differentially expressed lncRNAs mainly regulated the carboxylic acid metabolic processes and were involved in glycolysis pathway. The mRNA-lncRNA coexpression network comprised 186 mRNAs and 23 lncRNAs. Our results provide essential data regarding differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs after the depletion of SIRT7 in breast cancer cells, which may be useful to elucidate the role of SIRT7 in breast cancer development.
