MicroRNAs (miRNAs) were involved in tumorigenesis, progression, recurrence and drug resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, few miRNAs have been identified and entered clinical practice. We show here that miR-4461 expression is reduced in liver cancer stem cells (CSCs) and predicts the poor prognosis of HCC patients. Knockdown of miR-4461 enhances the self-renewal and tumorigenicity of liver CSCs. Conversely, forced miR-4461 expression inhibits liver CSCs self-renewal and tumorigenesis. Mechanically, miR-4461 directly targets sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) via binding to its 3ʹ untranslated region in liver CSCs. The correlation of miR-4461 and SIRT1 was confirmed in human HCC patients' tissues. Additionally, we found that miR-4461 overexpression hepatoma cells are more sensitive to cisplatin treatment. Patient-derived xenografts also showed that miR-4461 high HCC xenografts are sensitive to cisplatin treatment. Clinical cohort analysis further confirmed that HCC patients with high miR-4461 benefited more from transcatheter arterial chemoembolization treatment. In conclusion, our findings revealed the crucial role of miR-4461 in liver CSCs expansion and cisplatin response, rendering miR-4461 as an optimal target for the prevention and intervention of HCC.
