Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of miR?23a?3p on proliferation, migration and apoptosis on human acute myeloid leukemia ( AML) cells by targeting SMC1A. Methods Microarray analysis was used to screen differentially expressed microRNAs and mRNAs in human AML cells. Real?time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT?qRCR) was used to detect the expressions of miR?23a?3p and SMCA in human AML cell line U937. TargetScan database was used to analyze the correlation between miR?23a?3p and SMC1A. Double luciferase reporter gene was used to detect the interaction between miR?23a?3p and SMC1A. The effect of miR?23a?3p expression on the proliferation of U937 cells was detected by clonal assay. The migration, apoptosis, cell cycle and caspase?3 activity of U937 cells regulated by miR?23a?3p were detected by cell scratch assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of Bax and Bcl?2 in U937 cells. Results Compared with human normal monocyte SC group (1.00), the expression of miR?23a?3p in U937 cells was up?regulated (2.56±0.78) ( P＜0.01), while the expression of SMC1A was down?regulated (0.48±0.56, P＜0.01). miR?23a?3p specifically bond to SMC1A 3′UTR and regulated the expression activity of SMC1A. Overexpression of miR?23a?3p promoted the proliferation and migration of U937 cells and inhibited the apoptosis of U937 cells, while up?regulation of SMC1A inhibited the proliferation and migration of U937 cells and promoted the apoptosis of U937 cells. The percentages of G0／G1 phase, G2／M phase and S phase cells in the negative control group were ( 37.48 ± 0.21)%, (16.78±0.18)% and (45.74±0.15)% respectively, and those in the miR?23a?3p mimics group were (19.96±0.11)%, (41.69±0.24)% and (38.24±0.34)%, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (all P＜0.05). The proportions of G0／G1 phase, G2／M phase and S phase cells in the group of miR?23a?3p mimics+pcDNA3.1?SMC1A were (36.88± 0.21)%, ( 30.44± 0.33)% and ( 32.88± 0.16)%, respectively, without significant difference when compared with those of the miR?23a?3p mimics group ( P＞0.05). The relative expression levels of Bax and Bcl?2 protein in the negative control group were 0.55±0.45 and 0.31±0.54, respectively. Overexpression of miR?23a?3p inhibited the expression of Bax protein in U937 cells (0.23± 0.13, P＜0.001), promoted the expression of Bcl?2 protein ( 0.50 ± 0.23, P＜0.01), while SMC1A increased the expression of Bax protein in U937 cells (0.40± 0.11, P＜0.01), and inhibited the expression of Bcl?2 protein (0.37± 0.15). In the negative control group, caspase?3 activity was (25.82± 0.89)%.Overexpression of miR?23a?3p inhibited caspase?3 activity in U937 cells (3.64±0.56)%, P＜0.01, while up?regulation of SMC1A promoted caspase?3 activity in U937 cells ( 15.29 ± 0.85)%, P＜0.01. Conclusion miR?23a?3p can inhibit the proliferation and migration and promote apoptosis of human AML cells by targeting SMC1A.
