Abstract:
Objective To preliminarily explore the effects of human microRNA-181a on migration of gastric cancer cells and its mechanism.Methods The expression of miRNA-181a-5p in gastric cancer cell line GC9811 and peritoneal high metastasis gastric cancer cell line GC9811-P were tested by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR ). GC9811 cell line was transfected byendogenous synthetic analog mimic and its homologous negative control of miRNA-181a-5p,which were considered as up-regulated group and its control group respectively;GC9811-P were transfected by miRNA inhibitor and its homologous negative control of miRNA-181a-5p,which were considered as down-regulated group and its control group respectively.After miRNA-181a-5p was up or down-regulated,cell proliferation,migration and apoptosis capabilities of gastric cells were detected by matrix thiazolyl tetrazollium (MTT)assay,cloning-forming assay,Transwell migration test,wound healing assays and apoptosis test.After miRNA-181a-5p was up or down regulated,the changes of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)14 expression were determined by Western blot.Independent sample t test was performed for mean comparison between samples and chi square test was used for rate comparison.Results The results of qRT-PCR showed the relative expression quantity of miRNA-181a-5p in GC9811 was 1 .000 00 ± 0.021 26 and in GC9811-P was 3.175 61 ±0.106 76,and the difference was statistically significant (t =34.620,P <0.01 ).The results of MTT assay indicated that the cell proliferation rate of up-regulated group was higher than that of up-regulated control group,and that of down-regulated group was lower than down-regulated control group.The cloning-forming assay demonstrated that the number of clone forming and clone forming rate of up-regulated group,up-regulated control group,down-regulated group and down-regulated control group were 234.00±10.12 and 46.8%,93.00±9.61 and 18.6%,51 .00 ±7.96 and 10.2%,99.00±8.05 and 19.8%,respectively.The differences between up-regulated group,down-regulated group and their control group were statistically significant (t = 17.500,7.344,χ2 = 12.27, 9.51 ,all P <0.01).The results of Transwell migration experiment showed the number of cells migrated through membrane hole of up-regulated group was 164.00±19.31 ,and which was higher than that of up-regulated control group (87.00±23.04,t=4.436,P <0.05);that of down-regulated group was 157.00± 11 .50,and which was lower than that of down-regulated control group (234.00 ±12.12,t =7.982,P <0.05).The result of wound healing assays indicated that the rate of migration distance of up-regulated group,up-regulated control group,down-regulated group and down-regulated control group were 2.09 ± 0.18,1 .27 ±0.23,1 .15 ±0.15 and 1 .67 ±0.12,respectively.The differences between up-regulated group,down-regulated group and their control group were statistically significant (t =4.863 and 4.689, both P <0.05).The results of apoptosis experiments demonstrated that the apoptosis rate of up-regulated group,up-regulated control group,down-regulated group and down-regulated control group were (6.10± 1 .02 )%,(9.10 ± 2.13 )%,(12.70 ± 1 .23 )%,(8.70 ± 2.54 )%,respectively,and there was no statistically significant difference between up-regulated group,down-regulated group and their control group (both P *0.05).The results of Western blot showed that the grey value of up-regulated group was 561 .881 ±35 .740,which was higher than that of up-regulated control group (275 .784±23.520);that of down-regulated group was 579.565 ±37.950,which was lower than that of down-regulated control group (1 312.760±51 .270),and the differnces were statistically significant (t =11 .580 and 19.910,both P <0.01).Conclusion miRNA-181a-5p highly expresses in peritoneal high metastasis gastric cancer cell line GC9811-P and promoted the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cell line GC9811 and GC9811-P with a tendency to suppress apoptosis.
