miRNA-199a-5p suppresses proliferation and invasion by directly targeting NF-κB1 in human ovarian cancer cells.
Oncology Letters 2018 October
The aberrant expression of microRNA (miRNA)-199a-5p has been frequently reported in a number of cancer types, but to the best of our knowledge, this has not been reported in ovarian cancer (OC). The role and the molecular mechanism of miR-199a-5p in OC have not been reported. Therefore, the present study investigated the effects of miR-199a-5p overexpression on the proliferation and invasion of OC cells. The level of miR-199a-5p in OC cell lines was determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The miR-199a-5p mimic was transiently transfected into OC cells using Lipofectamine™ 2000 reagent. Subsequently, the BrdU-ELISA results indicated that the exogenous expression of miR-199a-5p inhibited cell proliferation. In addition, miR-199a-5p overexpression was able to inhibit the invasion of HO-8910 and ES-2 cells. RT-qPCR was performed to determine the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and -9 in OC cells. NF-κB1 expression was reduced by upregulation of miR-199a-5p. Bioinformatics analysis predicted that NF-κB1 was a potential target of miR-199a-5p. Luciferase reporter assay further confirmed that miR-199a-5p was able to directly target the 3'UTR of NF-κB1. In conclusion, miRNA-199a-5p may suppress the proliferation and invasion of human ovarian cancer cells by directly targeting NF-κB1.
