Abstract:
Objective To identify the miR-217 targeted gene ANLN by experiment.Methods Bioinformatic algorithms were used to predict the potential targets of miR-217.Then,ANLN binding with miR217 and mutant ANLN (mutANLN) sequence were designed and synthesized,and their amplified fragments were inserted into plasmid psiCHECK-2,and recombinant plasmid psiCHECK-2-ANLN and psiCHECK-2-mutANLN were reconstructed.The two recombinant plasmids were co-transfected into pancreatic cancer cell line PANC1 with miR-217,miR-217 inhibitor,NC,NC inhibitor by liposome,respectively.Dual luciferase reporter system was used to determine the luciferase activity,and Western blot was used to measure the expression of ANLN protein.Results The luciferase activities of psiCHECK-2-ANLN,psiCHECK-2-ANLN +miR-217,psiCHECK-2ANLN + miR-217 inhibitor,psiCHECK-2ANLN + NC,psiCHECK-2-ANLN + NC inhibitor were 2.221 ± 0.188,0.769 ± 0.061,3.764 ± 0.371,2.265 ± 0.201,2.242 ± 0.018,and the difference among these groups was statistically significant (F =77.405,P ＜0.001),but the difference among psiCHECK-2ANLN group,psiCHECK-2-ANLN + NC group and psiCHECK-2-ANLN + NC inhibitor group was not statistically significant.However,luciferase activities of psiCHECK-2-ANLN + miR-217 group were significantly decreased when compared with other 3 groups,and luciferase activity of psiCHECK-2-ANLN +miR-217 inhibitor group were significantly increased when compared with other 4 groups (all P ＜0.001).Luciferase activities of groups transfected with psiCHECK-2-mutANLN was not significantly different (P =0.053).The expression of ANLN protein in PANC1 with psiCHECK-2-ANLN + miR-217 co-transfection was significantly down-regulated when compared with that with psiCHECK-2-ANLN transfection alone.Conclusions ANLN is one of the direct target genes of miR-217 in PANC1 cells.
