Mir-362-3p Suppresses Sinonasal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression Via Directly Targeting Pituitary Tumor-Transforming Gene 1.
Journal of receptor and signal transduction research(2020)
Abstract
Background Sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) is a main subtype of sinonasal malignancy with unclear pathogenesis. microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in SNSCC progression. Nevertheless, the role and mechanism of miR-362-3p in SNSCC development are unclear. Methods The SNSCC tissues (n = 23) and normal sinonasal samples (n = 13) were harvested. SNSCC cell line RPMI-2650 cells were transfected using Lipofectamine 3000. miR-362-3p and pituitary tumor-transforming gene 1 (PTTG1) were determined by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot. Cell proliferation was analyzed via Cell Counting Kit-8 and 5-ethynyl-2 '-deoxyuridine assays. Cell migration and invasion was assessed using wound healing assay and transwell assay. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated protein (E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Vimentin) levels were measured via western blot. The binding relationship was analyzed via bioinformatic analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results miR-362-3p abundance was decreased in SNSCC samples. miR-362-3p addition constrained cell proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT, but miR-362-3p knockdown played an opposite effect. PTTG1 was targeted and negatively modulated by miR-362-3p. PTTG1 abundance was elevated in SNSCC samples. PTTG1 overexpression mitigated miR-362-3p-modulated suppression of cell proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in SNSCC cells. Conclusion miR-362-3p repressed cell proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT in SNSCC via targeting PTTG1.
