MiR-23a-3p has been shown to promote liver cancer cell growth and metastasis and regulate that of chemosensitivity. Protocadherin17 (PCDH17) is a tumor suppressor gene and plays an essential part in cell cycle of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed at evaluating the effects of miR-23a-3p and PCDH17 on HCC cell cycle and underlining the mechanism. The level of miR-23a-3p was up-regulated, while PCDH17 level was down-regulated in HCC tissues compared to adjacent tissues. For the in vitro studies, high expression of miR-23a-3p down-regulated PCDH17 level; increased cell viability; promoted G1/S cell cycle transition; up-regulated cyclin D1, cyclin E, CDK2, CDK4, p-p27, and p-RB levels; and down-regulated the expression of p27. Dual luciferase reporter assay suggested PCDH17 was a target gene of miR-23a-3p. MiR-23a-3p inhibitor and PCDH17 siRNA led to an increase in cell viability and the number of cells in the S phase and up-regulated cyclin D1 and cyclin E levels, compared with miR-23a-3p inhibitor and NC siRNA group. For the in vivo experiments, high expression of miR-23a-3p promoted tumor growth and reduced PCDH17 level in the cytoplasm. These results indicated that high expression of miR-23a-3p might promote G1/S cell cycle transition by targeting PCDH17 in HCC cells. The miR-23a-3p could be considered as a molecular target for HCC detection. 相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Although it has been known that hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) play critical roles in the development and progression of HCC, the molecular mechanism underlying crosstalk between HSCs and cancer cells still remains unclear. Here, we investigated the interactions between HSCs and cancer cells through an indirect co-culture system. The expressions of cellular and exosomal miR-148a-3p were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR. Cell counting kit-8 was used for evaluating cell growth in vitro. Cell migration and invasion ability were evaluated by wound-healing and Transwell assays. Western blot, quantitative real-time PCR and Luciferase reporter assay were performed to determine the target gene of miR-148a-3p. A xenograft liver cancer model was established to study the function of exosomal miR-148a-3p in vivo.We found that miR-148a-3p was downregulated in co-cultured HSCs and overexpression of miR-148a-3p in HSCs impaired the proliferation and invasiveness of HCC both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, further study showed that the miR-148a-3p was also downexpressed in HSCs-derived exosomes, and increased HSCs-derived exosomal miR-148a-3p suppressed HCC tumorigenesis through ITGA5/PI3K/Akt pathway. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that exosome-depleted miR-148a-3p derived from activated HSCs accelerates HCC progression through ITGA5/PI3K/Akt axis. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic autoimmune disease and effective treatment for RA is still lacking. In this study, the regulatory role of miR-19a-3p in RA was investigated. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis of human blood samples showed that the level of miR-19a-3p was significantly lower in the RA patients compared with that in healthy patients ( P < 0.05). In RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RAFLS), miR-19a-3p and suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) were also downregulated and upregulated, respectively, compared with those of normal FLS. Transfection of miR-19a-3p mimic in RAFLS inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis. TargetScan identified SOCS3 as a target of miR-19a-3p, which was confirmed by dual-luciferase assay. Western blot indicated that SOCS3 protein level was significantly decreased after miR-19a-3p overexpression. Moreover, SOCS3 silencing through siRNA transfection also enhanced cell proliferation, meanwhile inhibiting RAFLS apoptosis. In addition, SOCS3 overexpression abrogated the effects of miR-19a-3p overexpression on cell proliferation and apoptosis, corroborating that SOCS3 acts as a downstream effector in the miR-19a-3p-mediated function of RAFLS. These findings suggest that miR-19a-3p plays an important role in RA, and the miR-19a-3p/SOCS3 axis may become a potential therapeutic target for RA. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Effect of miR-216a-3p on lung cancer hasn’t been investigated. Here, we explored its effects on lung cancer. MiR-216a-3p expression in lung cancer tissues and cells was detected by RT-qPCR. The target gene of miR-216a-3p was predicted by bioinformatics and confirmed by luciferase-reporter assay. After transfection, cell viability, migration, invasion, proliferation, and apoptosis were detected by MTT, scratch, transwell, colony formation, and flow cytometry. The expressions of COPB2 and apoptosis-related factors were detected by RT-qPCR or western blot. MiR-216a-3p was low-expressed and COPB2 was high-expressed in lung cancer tissues and cells. MiR-216a-3p targeted COPB2 and regulated its expression. MiR-216a-3p inhibited lung cancer cell viability, migration, invasion, and proliferation, while promoted apoptosis. Effect of miR-216a-3p on lung cancer was reversed by COPB2. MiR-216a-3p regulated proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of lung cancer cells via targeting COPB2. 相似文献

Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancers, in which non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for 85% and has a low survival rate of 5 years. Dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) can participate in tumor regulation and many major diseases. In this study, we found that miR-199a-3p/5p were down-expressed in NSCLC tissue samples, cell lines, and the patient sample database. MiR-199a-3p/5p overexpression could significantly suppress cell proliferation, migration ability and promote apoptosis. Through software prediction, ras homolog enriched in brain (Rheb) was identified as a common target of miR-199a-3p and miR-199a-5p, which participated in regulating mTOR signaling pathway. The same effect of inhibiting NSCLC appeared after down-regulating the expression of Rheb. Furthermore, our findings revealed that miR-199a can significantly inhibit tumor growth and metastasis in vivo, which fully demonstrates that miR-199a plays a tumor suppressive role in NSCLC. In addition, miR-199a-3p/5p has been shown to enhance the sensitivity of gefitinib to EGFR-T790M in NSCLC. Collectively, these results prove that miR-199a-3p/5p can act as cancer suppressor genes to inhibit the mTOR signaling pathway by targeting Rheb, which in turn inhibits the regulatory process of NSCLC. Thus, to investigate the anti-cancer effect of pre-miR-199a/Rheb/mTOR axis in NSCLC, miR-199a-3p and miR-199a-5p have the potential to become an early diagnostic marker or therapeutic target for NSCLC. 相似文献

This study aimed to explore the effects and function of microRNA-101a-3p (miR-101a-3p) in epilepsy. Rat model of pilocarpine-induced epilepsy was established and the seizure frequency was recorded. Expression of miR-101a-3p and c-Fos in hippocampus tissues of Rat models were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. Besides, we established a hippocampal neuronal culture model of acquired epilepsy using Mg2+ free medium to evaluate the effects of miR-101a-3p and c-Fos in vitro. Cells were transfected with miR-101a-3p mimic, si-c-FOS, miR-101a-3p?+?c-FOS and its corresponding controls. MTT assay was used to detect cell viability upon transfection. Flow cytometry was performed to determine the apoptosis rate. Western blot was performed to measure the protein expression of apoptosis-related proteins (Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved caspase 3), autophagy-related proteins (LC3 and Beclin1) and c-FOS. The targeting relationship between miR-101a-3p and c-FOS was predicted and verified by TargetScan software and dual-luciferase reporter assay. The role of miR-101a-3p was validated using epilepsy rat models in vivo. Another Rat models of pilocarpine-induced epilepsy with miR-NC or miR-101a-3p injection were established to evaluate the effect of miR-101a-3p overexpression on epilepsy in vivo. MiR-101a-3p was downregulated while c-FOS was increased in hippocampus tissues of Rat model of pilocarpine-induced epilepsy. Overexpression of miR-101a-3p or c-FOS depletion promoted cell viability, inhibited cell apoptosis and autophagy. C-FOS was a target of miR-101a-3p and miR-101a-3p negatively regulated c-FOS expression to function in epilepsy. Overexpression of miR-101a-3p attenuated pilocarpine-induced epilepsy in Rats in vivo. This study indicated that miR-101a-3p could attenuate pilocarpine-induced epilepsy by repressing c-Fos expression. 相似文献

Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that there is critical involvement of miRNAs in the initiation and progression of cancers. Here, we showed that miR-323a-3p was significantly down-regulated in osteosarcoma (OS) tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-323a-3p decreased the cell viability, colon formation and induced the apoptosis of OS cells. Using bioinformatics analysis, lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) was predicted as one of the down-steam targets of miR-323a-3p. Highly expressed miR-323a-3p significantly decreased both the mRNA and protein levels of LDHA. Inverse correlation between the expression of LDHA and miR-323a-3p was observed in OS tissues. Consistent with the function of LDHA in glycolysis of cancer cells, overexpression of miR-323a-3p attenuated the lactate production of OS cells. These results demonstrated that miR-323a-3p suppressed the growth of OS cells via targeting LDHA and inhibited the glycolysis of OS. This study provides insight into the molecular mechanism of miR-323a-3p in regulating OS. 相似文献

AimsAberrant expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) results in alterations of various biological processes (e.g., cell cycle, cell differentiation, and apoptosis) and cell transformation. Altered miRNAs expression was associated with lung carcinogenesis and tumor progression. This study aimed to investigate the function and underlying molecular events of miR-517a-3p on regulation of lung cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Main methodsTransfected miR-517a-3p mimics or inhibitors into 95D and 95C cells respectively, the effects of miR-517a-3p on lung cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were detected. Bioinformatics software forecasted potential target genes of miR-517a-3p and dual luciferase reporter gene system and western blot verified whether miR-517a-3p regulates FOXJ3 expression directly. Key findingsMiR-517a-3p was differentially expressed in lung cancer 95D and 95C cell lines that have different metastatic potential. Manipulation of miR-517a-3p expression changed lung cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion capacity. MiR-517a-3p directly regulated FOXJ3 expression by binding to FOXJ3 promoter. SignificanceThis study demonstrated that miR-517a-3p promoted lung cancer cell proliferation and invasion by targeting of FOXJ3 expression. 相似文献

BackgroundSevoflurane (SEVO) inactivates the aggressiveness of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells by mediating microRNAs (miRNAs). Hence, we delved into the functional role of miR-148a-3p mediated by SEVO in HCC. MethodsLiver cells (L02) and HCC cells (HCCLM3 and Huh7) were exposed to SEVO to detect cell viability in HCC. HCCLM3 and Huh7 cells were treated with restored miR-148a-3p or depleted Rho-associated protein kinase 1 (ROCK1) to elucidate their roles in HCC cells' biological characteristics. HCCLM3 and Huh7 cells were treated with SEVO, and/or vectors that changed miR-148a-3p or ROCK1 expression to identify their combined functions in HCC cell progression. Tumor xenograft in nude mice was performed to determine growth ability of tumor. The target relationship between miR-148a-3p and ROCK1 was verified. ResultsSEVO inhibited proliferation, invasion and migration and enhanced apoptosis of HCCLM3 and Huh7 cells. MiR-148a-3p up-regulation or ROCK1 down-regulation inhibited HCCLM3 and Huh7 cell progression. ROCK1 was determined to be target gene of miR-148a-3p. Down-regulating miR-148a-3p or overexpressing ROCK1 mitigated cell aggressiveness inhibition caused by SEVO. ConclusionOur study elucidates that microRNA-148a-3p enhances the effects of sevoflurane on inhibiting proliferation, invasion and migration and enhancing apoptosis of HCC cells through suppression of ROCK1. 相似文献

MiR-217 can function as an oncogene or a tumour suppressor gene depending on cell type. However, the function of miR-217 in lung cancer remains unclear to date. This study aims to evaluate the function of miR-217 in lung cancer and investigate its effect on the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to cisplatin. The expression of miR-217 was detected in 100 patients by real-time PCR. The effects of miR-217 overexpression on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of SPC-A-1 and A549 cells were investigated. The target gene of miR-217 was predicted by Targetscan online software, screened by dual luciferase reporter gene assay and demonstrated by Western blot. Finally, the effects of miR-217 up-regulation on the sensitivity of A549 cells to cisplatin were determined. The expression of miR-217 was significantly lower in lung cancer tissues than in noncancerous tissues (p < 0.001). The overexpression of miR-217 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion as well as promoted the apoptosis of lung cancer cells by targeting KRAS. The up-regulation of miR-217 enhanced the sensitivity of SPC-A-1 and A549 cells to cisplatin. In conclusion, miR-217 suppresses tumour development in lung cancer by targeting KRAS and enhances cell sensitivity to cisplatin. Our results encourage researchers to use cisplatin in combination with miR-217 to treat lung cancer. This regime might lead to low-dose cisplatin application and cisplatin side-effect reduction. 相似文献

BackgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the familiar malignant tumors in the hematological system. miR-520a-3p is reported to be involved in several cancers’ progression. However, miR-520a-3p role in AML remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to clarify the role and potential mechanism of miR-520a-3p in AML. MethodsCell viability, proliferation, cycle and apoptosis were detected by MTT assay, colony formation assay, flow cytometry, respectively. The levels of PNCA, Bcl-2, Cleaved caspase 3, Cleaved caspase 9 and β-catenin protein were detected by Western blot. Dual-luciferase reported assay was performed to detect the regulation between miR-520a-3p and MUC1. To verify the effect of miR-520a-3p on tumor proliferation in vivo, a non-homogenous transplant model of tumors was established. ResultsmiR-520a-3p expression was down-regulated, and MUC1 expression was up-regulated in AML patients. miR-520a-3p overexpression suppressed THP-1 cell proliferation, induced cell cycle G0/G1 inhibition and promoted apoptosis. miR-520a-3p targeted MUC1 and negatively regulated its expression. MUC1 knockdown inhibited THP-1 cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. miR-520a-3p overexpression inhibited AML tumors growth. ConclusionOverexpression miR-520a-3p inhibited AML cell proliferation, and promoted apoptosis via inhibiting MUC1 expression and repressing Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation. 相似文献

Androgens and androgen receptors are vital factors involved in prostate cancer progression, and androgen ablation therapies are commonly used to treat advanced prostate cancer. However, the acquisition of androgen ablation therapy resistance remains a challenge. Recently, androgen receptor splicing variants lacking the ligand-binding domain have been reported to play a critical role in the acquisition of androgen ablation therapy resistance. In the present study, we revealed that the messenger RNA expression and the protein levels of an androgen receptor variant 7 (AR-V7) were higher in prostate cancer tissue samples and in the AR-positive prostate cancer cell line, VCaP. In contrast, microRNA (miR)-30c-1-3p/miR-103a-2-5p expression was significantly downregulated in tumor tissues and cells. miR-30c-1-3p/miR-103a-2-5p overexpression could inhibit AR-V7 expression, suppress VCaP cell growth, and inhibit AR-V7 downstream factor expression by directly targeting the 3′-untranslated region of AR-V7. Under enzalutamide (Enza) treatment, the effects of AR-V7 overexpression were the opposite of those of miR-103a-2-5p/miR-30c-1-3p overexpression; more importantly, the effects of miR-103a-2-5p/miR-30c-1-3p overexpression could be significantly reversed by AR-V7 overexpression under Enza. In summary, we demonstrated a novel mechanism of the miR-30c-1-3p/miR-103a-2-5p/AR-V7 axis modulating the cell proliferation of AR-positive prostate cancer cells via AR downstream targets. The clinical application of miR-30c-1-3p/miR-103a-2-5p needs further in vivo validation. 相似文献

Homoharringtonine (HHT), a natural alkaloid derived from the cephalotaxus, exhibited its anti-cancer effects in hematological malignancies clinically. However, its pesticide effects and mechanisms in treating solid tumors remain unclear. In this study, we found that HHT was capable of inhibiting tumor growth after 5-days treatment of breast cancer cells, MCF-7, in vivo. Furthemore, HHT also significantly inhibited the cancer cell growth and induced cell apoptosis in vitro. miRNA sequencing proved miR-18a-3p was noticeably downregulated in the cells after HHT treatment. Moreover, downregulating miR-18a-3p increased HHT-induced cell apoptosis; our data supported that HHT suppressed miR-18a-3p expression and inhibited tumorigenesis might via AKT-mTOR signaling pathway. In conclusion: our study proved that HHT suppressed breast cancer cell growth and promoted apoptosis mediated by regulating of the miR-18a-3p-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway, HHT may be a promising antitumor agent in breast cancer treatment. 相似文献
