Abstract:
Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of SNHG5 regulating the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells by targeting miR-421. Methods Real-time quantitative PCR test was performed to detect the expression levels of SNHG5 and miR-421 in 31 cases of GBM tissue samples and 32 cases of normal brain tissue samples. After increasing or decreasing SNHG5 expression in U87 cell lines by lentivirus or plasmid transfection, the changes of miR-421 expression were measured by real-time quantitative PCR, to explore the correlation between SNHG5 and miR-421 in GBM. The dual-luciferase reporter test was performed to explore the target interaction of SNHG5 and miR-421. The plasmids with low expression of SNHG5 and miR-421 were cotransfected into U87 cells for the rescue experiment. CCK-8 test, Transwell test, flow cytometry and tumor cell xenograft in nude mice were used to verify molecular mechanism of SNHG5 regulating the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of GBM in vitro and vivo. Results The expression level of miR-421 was decreased in U87 cell line after SNHG5 upregulation. In addition, the expression level of miR-421 was increased in U87 cell line after SNHG5 downregulation (P < 0.05). The expression level of SNHG5 was correlated negatively with the expression of miR-421 in GBM and U87 cell line. The result of luciferase reporter tests indicated SNHG5 targetedly interacted with miR-421. Rescue experiment results showed that compared with si-SNHG5+miR-421-inhibitor group, the proliferation, invasion and anti-apoptosis ability of U87 cells were significantly inhibited in the si-SNHG5+control-inhibitor group, the expression levels of BAX and p21 were significantly higher, the expression levels of CyclinD1 and Bcl-2 were lower remarkably (P < 0.05). Conclusion SNHG5 promotes the proliferation, invasion and anti-apoptosis of GBM by targeting miR-421 and regulating the expression of CyclinD1, p21, BAX and Bcl-2. Downregulation of miR-421 is related to SNHG5 overexpression in GBM.
