Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of miR-141-3p on proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway.Methods:Human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 was cultured, and miR-141-3p mimetic (miR-141-3p mimics) was transfected into BGC-823 cells by lipofection. The miR-141-3p overexpressed BGC was constructed. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the transfection effect. The proliferation of BGC-823 cells was determined by 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Transwell assay was used to detect the effect of miR-141-3p on BGC-823 cell migration. The expressions of NF-κB p65, p-IKK-α and p-IKB-α protein in NF-κB signaling pathway were detected by western blot.Results:Compared with the control group and the negative control group, the expression level of miR-141-3p in BGC-823 cells of the miR-141-3p group was (2.39±0.27), which was higher than (1.00±0.09) of the control group and (1.01±0.10) of the negative control group ( P<0.05). The number of migrating cells in the miR-141-3p group was (47.64±5.65), which was lower than (106.22±12.14) in the control group and (110.40±12.26) in the negative control group ( P<0.05). The expression levels of NF-κB p65, p-IKK-α and p-IKB-α protein in BGC-823 cells were down-regulated ( P<0.05). Conclusion:MiR-141-3p can inhibit the proliferation and migration of human gastric cancer BGC-823 cells, which may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway activation.
