Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-34a targeting PAX6 on JAK/STAT signaling pathway on invasion and metastasis of retinoblastoma.Methods:The expression of PAX6 in retinoblastoma tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry.The expression of miR-34a in retinoblastoma cell line was detected by PCR.The effect of miR-34a on the expression of PAX6 was examined by the dual luciferase gene system.Transwell invasion assay and scratch test was used to detect the ability of invasion and migration in the retinoblastoma cell line Rb44 after overexpression miR-34a.Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of JAK/STAT signal pathway after overexpression miR-34a.Results:The expression of PAX6 was significantly higher in retinoblastoma tissues than that in normal tissues.The miR-34a was lower in retinoblastoma tissues than that in normal tissues.Western blot analysis showed the lowest level of PAX6 in Rb44 retinoblastoma.The dual luciferase reporter gene system showed that miR-34a could directly regulate the transcriptional activity of PAX6.The ability of invasion and migration was inhibited after overexpression miR-34a.The expression level of PAX6 was down-regulated and the expression of JAK1/STAT3 protein were down-regulated after overexpression the miR-34a.Conclusion:miR-34a targets the expression of PAX6 and regulates the invasion and migration of retinoblastoma cells by JAK1/STAT3 signal pathway.
