Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of miR-199b in colorectal cancer and the effect of miR-199b on metastasis of colorectal cancer.Methods The expression of miR-199b in colorectal cancer was assessed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).The miR-199boverexpressed human colon tumor-116 (HCT-116) stable cell lines was constructed by lentivirus assay.The effects of miR-199b on the migration and invasion of colorectal cancer were confirmed by Transwell assay.Bioinformatics,luciferase reporter assay,and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were performed to verify the potential target genes of miR-199b.Results miR-199b was at lower level in cancerous tissues comparing to the corresponding noncancerous tissues.Up-regulation of miR-199b significantly blocked the migration and invasion of colorectal cancer cells.Co-transfection of miR-199b and VEGFA wild type (WT)3'untranslated region (3'UTR) could inhibit the luciferase activity,while there was no significant difference when co-transfection with mutant (MT) 3'UTR.The protein level of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) after overexpression of miR-199b was repressed,which was validated by ELISA.Conclusions miR-199b was a new colorectal cancer suppressor miRNA,which inhibited tumor migration and invasion by negatively regulating VEGF.
