Abstract:
ABSTRACT:Objective To explore the effects of miRNA-1246 (miR-1246)on cell proliferation,invasion and migration in human cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC)cell line SiHa.Methods SiHa cells were assigned into 3 groups:miR-1246 analog group,miR-1246 antagonist group and control group.Transfection efficiency was determined.The MTT assay,transwell assay and wound healing assay were performed respectively to evaluate the proliferation,invasion and migration abilities of SiHa cells.Western blot was carried out to detect the expression of thrombospondin-2 (THBS2)before and after transfection.A THBS2 3’-UTR-containing dual luciferase plasmid was synthesized and co-transfected with miR-1246 into SiHa cells to observe the luciferase enzyme activity.Results MTT assay,transwell assay and wound healing assay revealed that the abilities of proliferation,migration and invasion were significantly enhanced (P<0.01)in SiHa cells transfected with miR-1246 analog,but suppressed in SiHa cells transfected with miR-1246 antagonist.Western blot showed that SiHa cells transfected with miR-1246 analog had significantly decreased THBS2 expression (gray value = 6 .2 8 ± 1 0 .2 2 , P=0 .0 1 3 ) while those transfected with miR-1246 antagonist had significantly increased THBS2 expression (gray value = 12.90±19.81, P=0.037).After co-transfected with miR-1246 and THBS2 3’-UTR-containing plasmid,SiHa cells exhibited a decreased level of luciferase enzyme expression.Conclusion miR-1246 promoted the proliferation,invasion and migration of CSCC SiHa cell, and it might promote CSCC tumorigenesis and progression by suppressing the expression of its target gene THBS2 .
