Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the expression of microRNA(miR) -760 in human cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) tissues and cells, and it’s effects on the proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of SiHa cells, as well as its molecular mechanism. Methods: Eighty pairs of CSCC cancerous and corresponding para-cancerous tissue specimens which were pathologically confirmed and 40 cases of normal cervical tissue specimens obtained by myomectomy in Liaocheng Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2015 to August 2018 were selected. The expression of miR-760 in CSCC tissues, para-cancerous tissues and normal cervical tissues, human CSCC cell lines (SiHa, HCC94) and human cervical squamous epithelial immortalized H8 cells were detected by qPCR, and the relationship between miR-760 and clinicopathological characteristics of CSCC patients was analyzed. miR-760 mimics and NC-mimics plasmids were transfected into SiHa cells by liposome transfection. The expression of miR-760 in SiHa cells was detected by qPCR, the proliferation activity and apoptosis rate were detected by CCK-8 test and flow cytometry, respectively. The invasion and migration of SiHa cells were detected by Transwell assay. The expressions of EMT-related proteins, such as E-cadherin, vimentin and N-cadherin, in SiHa cells were detected by WB. Bioinformatics was used to predict the targeting relationship between FOXA1 and miR-760, and double luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the direct regulation of miR-760 on FOXA1. Results: The expression of miR-760 in CSCC tissues was significantly lower than that in para-cancerous tissues and normal cervical tissues (all P<0.01), and the expression of miR-760 was closely related to lymphnode metastasis and clinical stage (all P<0.01). The expression of miR-760 in SiHa and HCC94 cells was significantly lower than that in H8 cells (all P<0.01). Up-regulation of the expression of miR-760 could significantly inhibit the proliferation, invasion and migration of SiHa cells (all P<0.01), promote apoptosis (P<0.01), up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin protein (P<0.01), and down-regulate the protein expressions of vimentin and N-cadherin (all P<0.01).FOXA1 was a direct target gene of miR-760 (P<0.01). Up-regulation of miR760 significantly inhibited the mRNA and protein expressions of FOXA1 in SiHa cells (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The expression of miR-760 is down-regulated in CSCC tissues and cells, and it can regulate the proliferation, invasion, migration and apoptosis of CSCC cells by targeting FOXA1.
