Abstract:
Objective:To explore the influence of microRNA (miRNA)-6751-3p expression on the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells and its molecular mechanism.Methods:Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level of miR-6751-3p in gastric cancer cell lines (MGC803, BGC823, SGC7901, HS-746T) and normal gastric mucosal epithelial cells (GES-1). The gastric cancer cell lines with the lowest expression level of miR-6751-3p were divided into control group and experimental group, and were transfected with miR-NC and miR-6751-3p mimics respectively. qRT-PCR detected the expression level of miR-6751-3p in the two groups of cells. CCK-8 method and scratch healing test were used to detect the proliferation and migration of miR-6751-3p overexpressing cells. The potential target genes of miR-6751-3p were predicted through Deepbase v2.0 and microRNA.org online websites, and the dual luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to verify. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of target genes in miR-6751-3p overexpression cells.Results:Compared with normal gastric mucosal epithelial cells, the expression of miR-6751-3p was significantly down-regulated in gastric cancer cell lines ( P<0.05), and the cell line with the lowest expression level was MGC803 cells ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, overexpression of miR-6751-3p can inhibit the proliferation ability ( P<0.05). The scratch healing rate of MGC803 cells in the control group and the experimental group were (65.14±5.65)% and (23.40±6.78)%, respectively. Compared with the control group, the scratch healing rate of MGC803 cells in the experimental group was significantly lower ( t=4.73, P<0.01). The online website predicts that the target gene of miR-6751-3p may be fatty acid binding protein 5 ( FABP5), and miR-6751-3p can complementally bind FABP5 messenger RNA (mRNA) ( t=4.01, P<0.01). Compared with the control group, overexpression of miR-6751-3p can inhibit the expression of FABP5 gene in MGC803 cells ( P<0.01). Conclusion:The expression of miR-6751-3p in gastric cancer cell lines is low, and the overexpression of miR-6751-3p can inhibit the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer MGC803 cells by down-regulating the FABP5 gene.
