Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects and action mechanism of miR-181c-5p on biological behaviors of pros-tate cancer cells.Methods The pathological relationship between BIRC5,miR-181c-5p and prostate cancer was analyzed based on prostate cancer data in TCGA database.The target binding site of miR-181c-5p and BIRC5 was analyzed by miRNA target gene prediction database,and was verified by double luciferase activity assay.The ex-pression of BIRC5 protein in miR-181 c-5p overexpression cells was detected by Western blot.The prostate cancer cells PC3 and DU145 were selected to construct cell line with miR-181c-5p overexpression(miR-181c-5p group)and its negative control(miR-NC group),and qRT-PCR verification was conducted.The cells proliferation[opti-cal density at 450 nm site(OD450 nm)]was detected by CCK-8.Distribution of cell cycles and apoptosis rate were detected by flow cytometry.Expressions of proliferation and apoptosis related proteins were detected by Western blot.The cell line with miR-181c-5p/BIRC5 overexpression was constructed(miR-181c-5p+BIRC5 group).Cells growth,distribution of cell cycles,apoptosis rate and expressions of related proteins were detected by the a-bove methods.Results The expression of BIRC5 was up-regulated in prostate cancer tissues,and it was higher in patients with high tumor invasion,lymph node metastasis and recurrence.Patients exhibiting high expression of BIRC5 demonstrated poor survival rates.The expression of miR-181c-5p was down-regulated in prostate cancer tis-sues.The level of miR-181c-5p was negatively correlated with BIRC5 level,and miR-181c-5p could inhibit BIRC5 expression.In PC3 and DU145,miR-181c-5p level in miR-181c-5p group was higher than that in miR-NC group(P＜0.05);OD450 nm and percentage of S-phase cells were lower than those in miR-NC group(P＜0.05),per-centage of cells in G0/G1 phase;apoptosis rate and expressions of BAX,caspase-3 and PARP proteins were higher than those in miR-NC group(P＜0.05);expressions of CDK2,CCNB1 and BCL-2 proteins were lower than those in miR-NC group(P＜0.05).The expression of BIRC5 protein and OD450 nm in miR-181 c-5p+BIRC5 group were higher than those in miR-181c-5p group(P＜0.05),percentage of cells in G0/G1 phase was lower than that in miR-181c-5p group(P＜0.05);percentage of S-phase cells was higher than that in miR-181c-5p group(P＜0.05);apoptosis rate was lower than that in miR-181c-5p group(P＜0.05);expressions of CDK2,CCNB1 and BCL-2 proteins were higher than those in miR-181c-5p group;expressions of BAX,caspase-3 and PARP proteins were lower than those in miR-181 c-5p group.Conclusion miR-181-5p can inhibit the proliferation of human pros-tate cancer cells by targeting BIRC5,block cells in G0/G,phase and promote cells apoptosis.
