Abstract:
Background:miR-181b is related to the progression of many tumors,however,its expression in colitis-associated colon cancer is not clear. Aims:To investigate miR-181b expression and its potential target genes in the process of colitis-associated colon carcinogenesis. Methods: Colitis-associated colon cancer model was established by combined administration of azoxymethane(AOM)and dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)in mice. The expression of miR-181b in colon tissue at different time points was measured by real time fluorescent quantitative PCR(qPCR). Target genes of miR-181b were screened preliminarily by genome microarray combined with miRNA target gene prediction softwares TargetScan, PicTar and miRDB. Expressions of target genes in colitis-associated colon cancer mice were detected by qPCR. Results:The expression of miR-181b was gradually elevated during the development of colitis-associated colon cancer. However, AOM or DSS alone did not change expression of miR-181b. Genome microarray combined with miRNA target gene prediction softwares showed that Ipmk,E2f5,Klf6,Prkcd,Bai3,Hic2 might be the target genes of miR-181b. qPCR showed that expressions of Ipmk,Prkcd,Bai3,Hic2 were significantly decreased in colitis-associated colon cancer than in control group. Conclusions:Expression of miR-181b in colon is upregulated with the development of colitis-associated colon cancer,but is irrelevant with simple chronic inflammation.
