-
摘要:
目的 探究miR-196b影响肺腺癌(lung adenocarcinoma,LUAD)进展的机制。 方法 通过TCGA数据库分析miR-196b在LUAD组织中的表达水平,利用TargetScan预测其下游靶基因并用双荧光素酶实验进行验证,qRT-PCR检测miR-196b和ETS相关基因(ETS-related gene,ERG)在LUAD细胞系中的表达情况,MTT、划痕愈合和Transwell实验分别检测不同处理后LUAD细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力的变化情况。 结果 miR-196b在LUAD中高表达(P = 3.50e-17)并靶向负调控ERG,过表达miR-196b能够促进LUAD细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭(P < 0.05),回复实验证实miR-196b/ERG调控轴能够影响LUAD细胞增殖、迁移和侵袭( P < 0.05)。 结论 miR-196b靶向ERG促进LUAD进展的分子机制,对开发LUAD新的临床治疗方法具有潜在意义。 Abstract:Objective To explore the mechanisms of miR-196b affecting the progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Methods The expression level of miR-196b in LUAD tissues was analyzed through TCGA database. TargetScan was used to predict its downstream target genes, and dual-luciferase assay was performed to validate the predictions. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-196b and ETS-related gene (ERG) in LUAD cell lines. MTT, scratch healing, and Transwell assays were used to respectively assess the changes in proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of LUAD cells after different treatments. Results miR-196b was highly expressed in LUAD (P = 3.50e-17) and negatively regulated ERG. Overexpression of miR-196b promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells (P < 0.05). Rescue experiments confirmed that miR-196b/ERG regulatory axis can affect the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LUAD cells ( P < 0.05). Conclusion The molecular mechanism of miR-196b targeting ERG in promoting the progression of LUAD has potential significance for the development of new clinical treatment methods for LUAD. -
