Abstract:
Objective To study the mechanism of miR-548a-3p targeting MMP-2 inhibits the metastasis and invasion of gastric cancer cells.Methods Bioinformatics were used to search those miRNAs targeting MMP-2.The level of miR-548a-3p in gastric cancer tissues were detected by qRT-PCR and the expression of MMP-2 were detected by Western blot.The level of miR-548a-3p in three reconstructed gastric cancer cell lines were detected by qRT-PCR and the expression of MMP-2 were detected by Western blot.miR-548a-3p targeting the 3'-UTR of MMP-2 were detected by Luciferase reporter assay detected.And the changes of ability of metastasis and invasion were examined by Transwell experiment before and after transfection.Results There were high expression of miR217 and low expression of MMP-2 in human poorly differentiated gastric cancer cell line BGC-823.There were low expression of miR-548a-3p and high expression of MMP-2 in human middle and high differentiated gastric cancer cell line MKN-28 and SGC-7901 (P < 0.05).The result of Luciferase reporter assay showed that miR-548a-3p can targeting the 3’-UTR of MMP-2.There were high expression of miR-548a-3p and low expression of MMP-2 in MKN28-miR-548a-3p mimics.There were low expression of miR-548a-3p and high expression of MMP-2 in others reconstructed three cell lines.There were smaller invaded cells in SGC-7901-miR-217 mimics than in others three cell lines (P < 0.05).Conclusions miR-548a-3p can target the 3'-UTR of MMP-2 and down regulate its expression and inhibit the ability of invasion of gastric cancer cells.
