Popis: | Increasing evidence suggest that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HCCLM3 cells initially develop pseudopodia when they metastasize, and microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been demonstrated to serve important roles in the development, progression and metastasis of cancer. The present study aimed to isolate the cell bodies (CBs) and cell protrusions (CPs) from HCCLM3 cells, and screen the miRNAs and circRNAs associated with HCC infiltration and metastasis in CBs and CPs. The Boyden chamber assay has been confirmed to effectively isolate the CBs and CPs from HCCLM3 cells via observation of microtubule immunofluorescence, DAPI staining and nuclear protein H3 western blotting. Following high-throughput sequencing of the successfully isolated CBs and CPs, 64 pairs of miRNAs, including 23 pairs of upregulated genes and 41 pairs of downregulated genes, and 260 sets of circRNAs, including 127 upregulated genes and 133 downregulated genes, were significantly differentially expressed, using the following criteria: HP/HB ratio, fold change ≥|1.5|, P |
