Abstract:
The most common type of intracranial malignancy is glioma. Although the current treatments are surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, the prognosis for patients with glioma is not promising. Therefore, it becomes critical to find an effective management. The literature shows that microRNA (miRNA) plays an important role in tumorigenesis and progression. Based on this, this study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of miR-525-5p in regulating the migration, invasion and proliferation of glioma cells. The TCGA database was used to identify perilipin 3 (PLIN3) differentially expressed in normal tissues and glioma tissues, and the CGGA and GEPIA databases were used to query that high expression of PLIN3 was associated with poor prognosis in glioma patients and Western blot experiments revealed that PLIN3 was highly expressed in glioma cells (P<0. 05) . The results of wound healing assay and Transwell invasion assay showed that knockdown or overexpression of PLIN3 respectively inhibited or promoted the migration and invasion of glioma cells (P < 0. 05) . Dual luciferase assays confirmed that PLIN3 could bind to miR-525-5p target. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) showed that miR-525-5p expression was lower in LN229 and U251 glioma cells than in human astrocyte (HA) (P < 0. 05) . Transwell assay and 5-ethynyl-2-deoxyuridine (EdU) cell proliferation assay verified that down- or up-regulation of miR-525-5p could reverse the effects of overexpression or knockdown of PLIN3 on LN229 glioma cells (P<0. 05) . Taken together, miR-525-5p was able to regulate the migration, invasion and proliferation of glioma cells by targeting PLIN3.
