Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to investigate the regulatory effects of histone methylation modifications on the expression of miR-200c, as well as invasion and migration of gastric carcinoma cells. Gastric carcinoma cell line, MGC-803, were treated by 2.5 μmol/L histone methyltransferase inhibitor, DZNep. The expression of miR-200c was detected by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) indicators (ZEB1/2 and E/N-cadherin), EZH2, EED, SUZ12 and H3K27me3 expressions were detected by Western blot. Cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by Transwell and scratch tests. The result showed that, compared with DMSO (control) group, DZNep significantly increased the expression of miR-200c to about 2.1 times, inhibited ZEB1, ZEB2, and N-cadherin expressions, and activated E-cadherin expression; Also, DZNep decreased the protein expressions of EZH2, EED, SUZ12 and H3K27me3; Moreover, DZNep could inhibit MGC-803 cell invasive and migrative abilities, as well as MMP9 expression. These results suggest DZNep raises miR-200c expression to delay the invasion and migration of gastric carcinoma cells, and the underlying mechanisms involve the regulations of EMT-related proteins and polycomb repressive complex 2.
