Oxidative stress serves as an important regulator of both apoptosis and metabolic reprogramming in tumor cells. Chaetocin, a histone methyltransferase inhibitor, is known to induce ROS generation. As elevating basal ROS level sensitizes glioma cells to apoptosis, the ability of Chaetocin in regulating apoptotic and metabolic adaptive responses in glioma was investigated. Chaetocin induced glioma cell apoptosis in a ROS-dependent manner. Increased intracellular ROS induced (i) Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) expression independent of the canonical Hippo pathway as well as (ii) ATM and JNK activation. Increased interaction of YAP1 with p73 and p300 induced apoptosis in an ATM-dependent manner. Chaetocin induced JNK modulated several metabolic parameters like glucose uptake, lactate production, ATP generation, and activity of glycolytic enzymes hexokinase and pyruvate kinase. However, JNK had no effect on ATM or YAP1 expression. Coherent with the in vitro findings, Chaetocin reduced tumor burden in heterotypic xenograft glioma mouse model. Chaetocin-treated tumors exhibited heightened ROS, pATM, YAP1 and pJNK levels. Our study highlights the coordinated control of glioma cell proliferation and metabolism by ROS through (i) ATM-YAP1-driven apoptotic pathway and (ii) JNK-regulated metabolic adaptation. The elucidation of these newfound connections and the roles played by ROS to simultaneously shift metabolic program and induce apoptosis could provide insights toward the development of new anti-glioma strategies.  相似文献

The production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) drives tumourigenesis in ulcerative colitis (UC). Recently, we showed that H2O2 activates DNA damage checkpoints in human colonic epithelial cells (HCEC) through c‐Jun N‐terminal Kinases (JNK) that induces p21WAF1. Moreover, caspases circumvented the G1/S and intra‐S checkpoints, and cells accumulated in G2/M. The latter observation raised the question of whether repeated H2O2 exposures alter JNK activation, thereby promoting a direct passage of cells from G2/M arrest to driven cell cycle progression. Here, we report that increased proliferation of repeatedly H2O2‐exposed HCEC cells (C‐cell cultures) was associated with (i) increased phospho‐p46 JNK, (ii) decreased total JNK and phospho‐p54 JNK and (iii) p21WAF1 down‐regulation. Altered JNK activation and p21WAF1 down‐regulation were accompanied by defects in maintaining G2/M and mitotic spindle checkpoints through adaptation, as well as by apoptosis resistance following H2O2 exposure. This may cause increased proliferation of C‐cell cultures, a defining initiating feature in the inflammation‐carcinoma pathway in UC. We further suggest that dysregulated JNK activation is attributed to a non‐apoptotic function of caspases, causing checkpoint adaptation in C‐cell cultures. Additionally, loss of cell‐contact inhibition and the overcoming of senescence, hallmarks of cancer, contributed to increased proliferation. Furthermore, there was evidence that p54 JNK inactivation is responsible for loss of cell‐contact inhibition. We present a cellular model of UC and suggest a sinusoidal pattern of proliferation, which is triggered by H2O2‐induced reactive oxygen species generation, involving an interplay between JNK activation/inactivation, p21WAF1, c‐Fos, c‐Jun/phospho‐c‐Jun, ATF2/phospho‐ATF2, β‐catenin/TCF4‐signalling, c‐Myc, CDK6 and Cyclin D2, leading to driven cell cycle progression.  相似文献

Panaxydol, a polyacetylenic compound derived from Panax ginseng roots, has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. In this study, we demonstrated that panaxydol induced apoptosis preferentially in transformed cells with a minimal effect on non-transformed cells. Furthermore, panaxydol was shown to induce apoptosis through an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), activation of JNK and p38 MAPK, and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) initially by NADPH oxidase and then by mitochondria. Panaxydol-induced apoptosis was caspase-dependent and occurred through a mitochondrial pathway. ROS generation by NADPH oxidase was critical for panaxydol-induced apoptosis. Mitochondrial ROS production was also required, however, it appeared to be secondary to the ROS generation by NADPH oxidase. Activation of NADPH oxidase was demonstrated by the membrane translocation of regulatory p47phox and p67phox subunits and shown to be necessary for ROS generation by panaxydol treatment. Panaxydol triggered a rapid and sustained increase of [Ca2+]i, which resulted in activation of JNK and p38 MAPK. JNK and p38 MAPK play a key role in activation of NADPH oxidase, since inhibition of their expression or activity abrogated membrane translocation of p47phox and p67phox subunits and ROS generation. In summary, these data indicate that panaxydol induces apoptosis preferentially in cancer cells, and the signaling mechanisms involve a [Ca2+]i increase, JNK and p38 MAPK activation, and ROS generation through NADPH oxidase and mitochondria.  相似文献

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with a recently developed photosensitizer Zn‐BC‐AM was found to effectively induce apoptosis in a well‐differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) HK‐1 cell line. Sustained activation of p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) and c‐jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) as well as a transient increase in activation of extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) were observed immediately after Zn‐BC‐AM PDT. A commonly used p38 MAPK/JNK pharmacological inhibitor PD169316 was found to reduce PDT‐induced apoptosis of HK‐1 cells. PD169316 also prevented the loss of Bcl‐2 and Bcl‐xL in PDT‐treated HK‐1 cells. However, inhibition of JNK with SP600125 had no effect on Zn‐BC‐AM PDT‐induced apoptosis while inhibition of ERK with PD98059 or p38 MAPK with SB203580 significantly increased Zn‐BC‐AM PDT‐induced apoptosis. Further study showed that knockdown of the p38β isoform with siRNA also increased Zn‐BC‐AM PDT‐induced apoptosis, indicating that the anti‐apoptotic effect of PD169316 in PDT‐treated HK‐1 cells was probably independent of p38 MAPK or JNK activation. Taken together, the results suggest that inhibition of p38β and ERK may enhance the therapeutic efficacy of Zn‐BC‐AM PDT on NPC cells. It should be noted that data only based on the use of PD169316 should be interpreted in caution. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Recently, we reported that reduction of intracellular Cl? concentration ([Cl?]i) inhibited proliferation of MKN28 gastric cancer cells by diminishing the transition rate from G1 to S cell‐cycle phase through upregulation of p21, cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor, in a p53‐independent manner. However, it is still unknown how intracellular Cl? regulates p21 expression level. In this study, we demonstrate that mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are involved in the p21 upregulation and cell‐cycle arrest induced by reduction of [Cl?]i. Culture of MKN28 cells in a low Cl? medium significantly induced phosphorylation (activation) of MAPKs (ERK, p38, and JNK) and G1/S cell‐cycle arrest. To clarify the involvement of MAPKs in p21 upregulation and cell growth inhibition in the low Cl? medium, we studied effects of specific MAPKs inhibitors on p21 upregulation and G1/S cell‐cycle arrest in MKN28 cells. Treatment with an inhibitor of p38 or JNK significantly suppressed p21 upregulation caused by culture in a low Cl? medium and rescued MKN28 cells from the low Cl?‐induced G1 cell‐cycle arrest, whereas treatment with an ERK inhibitor had no significant effect on p21 expression or the growth of MKN28 cells in the low Cl? medium. These results strongly suggest that the intracellular Cl? affects the cell proliferation via activation of p38 and/or JNK cascades through upregulation of the cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor (p21) in a p53‐independent manner in MKN28 cells.

Pancreatic β‐cell death or dysfunction mediated by oxidative stress underlies the development and progression of diabetes mellitus (DM). In this study, we evaluated the effect of lentinan (LNT), an active ingredient purified from the bodies of Lentinus edodes, on pancreatic β‐cell apoptosis and dysfunction caused by streptozotocin (STZ) and the possible mechanisms implicated. The rat insulinoma cell line INS‐1 were pre‐treated with the indicated concentration of LNT for 30 min. and then incubated for 24 hrs with or without 0.5 mM STZ. We found that STZ treatment causes apoptosis of INS‐1 cells by enhancement of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and nitric oxide release and activation of the c‐jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathways. However, LNT significantly increased cell viability and effectively attenuated STZ‐induced ROS production, iNOS expression and nitric oxide release and the activation of JNK and p38 MAPK in a dose‐dependent manner in vitro. Moreover, LNT dose‐dependently prevented STZ‐induced inhibition of insulin synthesis by blocking the activation of nuclear factor kappa beta and increasing the level of Pdx‐1 in INS‐1 cells. Together these findings suggest that LNT could protect against pancreatic β‐cell apoptosis and dysfunction caused by STZ and therefore may be a potential pharmacological agent for preventing pancreatic β‐cell damage caused by oxidative stress associated with diabetes.  相似文献

Chronic elevation of NEFAs (non‐esterified fatty acids) due to insulin resistance and obesity has been shown to be associated with increased β‐cell apoptosis and with the aetiology of the reduced β‐cell mass of Type 2 diabetes. SAPK (stress‐activated protein kinase)/JNK (c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase) have been implicated in the control of apoptosis. C‐K [compound K; 20‐O‐β‐d ‐glucopyranosyl‐20(S)‐protopanaxadiol] is the main intestinal bacterial metabolite of protopanaxadiol ginsenosides. Currently, little is known about the effects of C‐K on β‐cells with the presence of NEFAs. The aim of the present study was to investigate the in vitro protective effect of C‐K on MIN6N8 mouse insulinoma β‐cells against NEFA‐induced apoptosis, as well as the modulating effect on SAPK/JNK activation. Our results have shown that C‐K inhibited the palmitate‐induced apoptosis through modulating SAPK/JNK activation. We conclude that C‐K protects against β‐cell death and that, by anti‐apoptotic activity, C‐K may contribute to the previously reported anti‐diabetic actions of ginseng.  相似文献

Human lung neoplasms frequently express mutations that down‐regulate expression of various tumor suppressor molecules, including mitogen‐activated protein kinases such as p38 MAPK. Conversely, activation of p38 MAPK in tumor cells results in cancer cell cycle inhibition or apoptosis initiated by chemotherapeutic agents such as retinoids or cisplatin, and is therefore an attractive approach for experimental anti‐tumor therapies. We now report that 4‐phenyl‐3‐butenoic acid (PBA), an experimental compound that reverses the transformed phenotype at non‐cytotoxic concentrations, activates p38 MAPK in tumorigenic cells at concentrations and treatment times that correlate with decreased cell growth and increased cell‐cell communication. H2009 human lung carcinoma cells and ras‐transformed rat liver epithelial cells treated with PBA showed increased activation of p38 MAPK and its downstream effectors which occurred after 4 h and lasted beyond 48 h. Untransformed plasmid control cells showed low activation of p38 MAPK compared to ras‐transformed and H2009 carcinoma cells, which correlates with the reduced effect of PBA on untransformed cell growth. The p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580, negated PBA's activation of p38 MAPK downstream effectors. PBA also increased cell–cell communication and connexin 43 phosphorylation in ras‐transformed cells, which were prevented by SB203580. In addition, PBA decreased activation of JNK, which is upregulated in many cancers. Taken together, these results suggest that PBA exerts its growth regulatory effect in tumorigenic cells by concomitant up‐regulation of p38 MAPK activity, altered connexin 43 expression, and down‐regulation of JNK activity. PBA may therefore be an effective therapeutic agent in human cancers that exhibit down‐regulated p38 MAPK activity and/or activated JNK and altered cell–cell communication. J. Cell.

Pramanicin is a novel anti-fungal drug with a wide range of potential application against human diseases. It has been previously shown that pramanicin induces cell death and increases calcium levels in vascular endothelial cells. In the present study, we showed that pramanicin induced apoptosis in Jurkat T leukemia cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Our data reveal that pramanicin induced the release of cytochrome c and caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation, as evidenced by detection of active caspase fragments and fluorometric caspase assays. Pramanicin also activated c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK 1/2) with different time and dose kinetics. Treatment of cells with specific MAP kinase and caspase inhibitors further confirmed the mechanistic involvement of these signalling cascades in pramanicin-induced apoptosis. JNK and p38 pathways acted as pro-apoptotic signalling pathways in pramanicin-induced apoptosis, in which they regulated release of cytochrome c and caspase activation. In contrast the ERK 1/2 pathway exerted a protective effect through inhibition of cytochrome c leakage from mitochondria and caspase activation, which were only observed when lower concentrations of pramanicin were used as apoptosis-inducing agent and which were masked by the intense apoptosis induction by higher concentrations of pramanicin. These results suggest pramanicin as a potential apoptosis-inducing small molecule, which acts through a well-defined JNK- and p38-dependent apoptosis signalling pathway in Jurkat T leukemia cells.  相似文献

Symmetric aromatic diselenides are potential anticancer agents with strong cytotoxic activity. In this study, the in vitro anticancer activities of a novel series of diarylseleno derivatives from the diphenyldiselenide (DPDS) scaffold were evaluated. Most of the compounds exhibited high efficacy for inducing cytotoxicity against different human cancer cell lines. DPDS 2 , the compound with the lowest mean GI50 value, induced both caspase‐dependent apoptosis and arrest at the G0/G1 phase in acute lymphoblastic leucemia CCRF‐CEM cells. Consistent with this, PARP cleavage; enhanced caspase‐2, ‐3, ‐8 and ‐9 activity; reduced CDK4 expression and increased levels of p53 were detected in these cells upon DPDS 2 treatment. Mutated p53 expressed in CCRF‐CEM cells retains its transactivating activity. Therefore, increased levels of p21CIP1 and BAX proteins were also detected. On the other hand, DPDS 6 , the compound with the highest selectivity index for cancer cells, resulted in G2/M cell cycle arrest and caspase‐independent cell death in p53 deficient HTB‐54 lung cancer cells. Autophagy inhibitors 3‐methyladenine, wortmannin and chloroquine inhibited DPDS 6 ‐induced cell death. Consistent with autophagy, increased LC3‐II and decreased SQSTM1/p62 levels were detected in HTB‐54 cells in response to DPDS 6 . Induction of JNK phosphorylation and a reduction in phospho‐p38 MAPK were also detected. Moreover, the JNK inhibitor SP600125‐protected HTB‐54 cells from DPDS 6 ‐induced cell death indicating that JNK activation is involved in DPDS 6 ‐induced autophagy. These results highlight the anticancer effects of these derivatives and warrant future studies examining their clinical potential.  相似文献

Objective : Determine the biochemical pathways involved in induction of apoptosis by ajoene, an organosulfur compound from garlic. Research Methods and Procedures : Mature 3T3‐L1 adipocytes were incubated with ajoene at concentrations up to 200 μM. Viability and apoptosis were quantified using an MTS‐based cell viability assay and an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay for single‐stranded DNA (ssDNA), respectively. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production was measured based on production of the fluorescent dye, dichlorofluorescein. Activation of the mitogen‐activated protein kinases extracellular signal‐regulating kinase 1/2 (ERK) and c‐Jun‐N‐terminal kinase (JNK) was shown by Western blot. Western blot was also used to show activation of caspase‐3, translocation of apoptosis‐inducing factor (AIF) from mitochondria to nucleus, and cleavage of 116‐kDa poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP)‐1. Results : Ajoene induced apoptosis of 3T3‐L1 adipocytes in a dose‐ and time‐dependent manner. Ajoene treatment resulted in activation of JNK and ERK, translocation of AIF from mitochondria to nucleus, and cleavage of 116‐kDa PARP‐1 in a caspase‐independent manner. Ajoene treatment also induced an increase in intracellular ROS level. Furthermore, the antioxidant N‐acetyl‐l ‐cysteine effectively blocked ajoene‐mediated ROS generation, activation of JNK and ERK, translocation of AIF, and degradation of PARP‐1. Discussion : These results indicate that ajoene‐induced apoptosis in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes is initiated by the generation of hydrogen peroxide, which leads to activation of mitogen‐activated protein kinases, degradation of PARP‐1, translocation of AIF, and fragmentation of DNA. Ajoene can, thus, influence the regulation of fat cell number through the induction of apoptosis and may be a new therapeutic agent for the treatment of obesity.  相似文献

Khz is a compound derived from the fusion of Ganoderma lucidum and Polyporus umbellatus mycelia that inhibits the growth of cancer cells. The results of the present study show that Khz induced apoptosis preferentially in transformed cells and had only minimal effects on non-transformed cells. Furthermore, Khz induced apoptosis by increasing the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and activating JNK to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) via NADPH oxidase and the mitochondria. Khz-induced apoptosis was caspase-dependent and occurred via a mitochondrial pathway. ROS generation by NADPH oxidase was critical for Khz-induced apoptosis, and although mitochondrial ROS production was also required, it appeared to occur secondary to ROS generation by NADPH oxidase. Activation of NADPH oxidase was demonstrated by the translocation of regulatory subunits p47phox and p67phox to the cell membrane and was necessary for ROS generation by Khz. Khz triggered a rapid and sustained increase in [Ca2+]i, which activated JNK. JNK plays a key role in the activation of NADPH oxidase because inhibition of its expression or activity abrogated membrane translocation of the p47phox and p67phox subunits and ROS generation. In summary, these data indicate that Khz preferentially induces apoptosis in cancer cells, and the signaling mechanisms involve an increase in [Ca2+]i, JNK activation, and ROS generation via NADPH oxidase and mitochondria.  相似文献

Lestaurtinib, also called CEP‐701, is an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase, causes haematological remission in patients with AML possessing FLT3‐ITD (FLT3 gene) internal tandem duplication and strongly inhibits tyrosine kinase FLT3. Treatment with lestaurtinib modulates various signalling pathways and leads to cell growth arrest and programmed cell death in several tumour types. However, the effect of lestaurtinib on glioma remains unclear. In this study, we examined lestaurtinib and TRAIL interactions in glioma cells and observed their synergistic activity on glioma cell apoptosis. While U87 and U251 cells showed resistance to TRAIL single treatment, they were sensitized to apoptosis induced by TRAIL in the presence of lestaurtinib because of increased death receptor 5 (DR5) levels through CHOP‐dependent manner. We also demonstrated using a xenograft model of mouse that the tumour growth was absolutely suppressed because of the combined treatment compared to TRAIL or lestaurtinib treatment carried out singly. Our findings reveal a potential new strategy to improve antitumour activity induced by TRAIL in glioma cells using lestaurtinib through a mechanism dependent on CHOP.  相似文献

Escherichia coli (E. coli) infections play an important and growing role in the clinic. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) superfamily, including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK, and caspase-3 and 9 activity in E. coli-induced apoptosis in human U937 cells. We found that E. coli induces apoptosis in U937 cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner, p38 MAPK and JNK were activated after 10 min of infection with E. coli. In contrast, ERK1/2 was down-regulated in a time-dependent manner. The levels of total (phosphorylation state-independent) p38 MAPK, JNK and ERK1/2 did not change in E. coli-infected U937 cells at all times examined. Moreover, exposure of U937 cells to E. coli led to caspase-3 and 9 activity. For the evaluation of the role of MAPKs, PD98059, SB203580 and SP600125 were used as MAPKs inhibitors for ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and JNK. Inhibition of ERK1/2 with PD98059 caused further enhancement in apoptosis and caspase-3 and 9 activity, while a selective p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580 and JNK inhibitor, SP600125 significantly inhibited E. coli-induced apoptosis and caspase-3 and 9 activity in U937 cells. The results were further confirmed by the observation that the caspase inhibitors Z-DEVD-FMK and Z-LEHD-FMK blocked E. coli-induced U937 apoptosis. Taken together, we have shown that E. coli increase p38 MAPK and JNK and decrease ERK1/2 phosphorylation and increase caspase-3 and 9 activity in U937 cells.  相似文献

ω‐Hydroxyundec‐9‐enoic acid (ω‐HUA), a plant secondary metabolite, exhibits anti‐fungal activity. However, its effect on breast cancer cells is unknown. Here, we investigated the anti‐ breast cancer activity of ω‐HUA and its underlying mechanism. Treatment of human breast cancer cell lines, MDA‐MB‐231 and MDA‐MB‐435, with ω‐HUA induced apoptotic cell death with increased cleaved caspase‐3 and poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) levels, and p38 and JNK phosphorylation. Inhibition of these mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways using specific inhibitors or siRNA, for p38 and JNK, respectively, blocked the ω‐HUA‐induced apoptosis in a dose‐dependent manner. Moreover, pretreatment of the cells with antioxidant N‐acetyl cysteine (NAC) inhibited ω‐HUA‐induced increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, cleaved caspase‐3 and cleaved PARP, and phosphorylated JNK, phosphorylated p38, and increased cell viability and colony‐forming ability. MDA‐MB‐231 xenograft model showed that the ω‐HUA‐treated group exhibited greater tumor regression and significantly reduced tumor weight compared to that exhibited by the vehicle‐administered group. Collectively, ω‐HUA‐induced intracellular ROS generation induced breast cancer cell apoptosis through JNK and p38 signaling pathway activation, resulting in tumor regression. The results suggested that ω‐HUA is an effective supplement for inhibiting human breast cancer growth.  相似文献

In contrast to cancer cells, most normal human cells have no or low telomerase levels which makes it an attractive target for anti‐cancer drugs. The small molecule sulforaphane from broccoli is known for its cancer therapeutic potential in vitro and in vivo. In animals and humans it was found to be quickly metabolized into 4‐methylthiobutyl isothiocyanate (MTBITC, erucin) which we recently identified as strong selective apoptosis inducer in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Here, we investigated the relevance of telomerase abrogation for cytotoxic efficacy of MTBITC against HCC. The drug was effective against telomerase, independent from TP53 and MTBITC also blocked telomerase in chemoresistant subpopulations. By using an orthotopic human liver cancer xenograft model, we give first evidence that MTBITC at 50 mg/KG b.w./d significantly decreased telomerase activity in vivo without affecting enzyme activity of adjacent normal tissue. Upon drug exposure, telomerase decrease was consistent with a dose‐dependent switch to anti‐survival, cell arrest and apoptosis in our in vitro HCC models. Blocking telomerase by the specific inhibitor TMPyP4 further sensitized cancer cells to MTBITC‐mediated cytotoxicity. Overexpression of hTERT, but not enzyme activity deficient DNhTERT, protected against apoptosis; neither DNA damage nor cytostasis induction by MTBITC was prevented by hTERT overexpression. These findings imply that telomerase enzyme activity does not protect against MTBITC‐induced DNA damage but impacts signalling processes upstream of apoptosis execution level.  相似文献

This study purposed to explore the correlation between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2 and their impacts on glioma cell progression. Differentially expressed miRNA was screened through microarray analysis. MiR‐129‐5p expression levels in glioma tissues and cells were measured by qRT‐PCR. CCK‐8 assay, flow cytometer, transwell assay and wound‐healing assay were employed to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis and cycle, invasiveness and migration, respectively. Dual‐luciferase reporting assay was performed to confirm the targeted relationship between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2. The effects of TGIF2 expression on cell biological functions were also investigated using the indicated methods. Tumour xenograft was applied to explore the impact of miR‐129‐5p on tumorigenesis in vivo. MiR‐129‐5p expression was down‐regulated in both glioma tissues and glioma cells, while TGIF2 expression was aberrantly higher than normal level. Dual‐luciferase reporter assay validated the targeting relation between miR‐129‐5p and TGIF2. Overexpression of miR‐129‐5p or down‐regulation of TGIF2 inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration capacity of glioma cells U87 and U251, and meanwhile blocked the cell cycle as well as induced cell apoptosis. MiR‐129‐5p overexpression repressed the tumour development in vivo. MiR‐129‐5p and TGIF2 had opposite biological functions in glioma cells. MiR‐129‐5p could inhibit glioma cell progression by targeting TGIF2, shining light for the development of target treatment for glioma.  相似文献
