| Popis: | Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) is an aggressive tumor with high mortality. More insight into the biology of DDLPS tumorigenesis is needed to devise novel therapeutic approaches. Previous data showed that miRNA-199a-3p (miR-199a-3p) was strongly upregulated in DDLPS tissues. However, the biological role of miR-199a-3p in DDLPS remains unknown. In this study, we detected miR-199a-3p expression using RT-qPCR and observed that miR-199a-3p was more highly expressed in DDLPS tissues and cell lines (SW872 and LPS141). Functionally, MTT assay, flow cytometry and western blot results demonstrated that knockdown of miR-199a-3p inhibited DDLPS cell viability, enhanced apoptosis rate, and decreased expression of apoptosis-related genes Bax and cleaved caspase 3, as well as increased Bcl-2 expression in vitro. Moreover, xenograft tumors were generated and miR-199a-3p knockdown could suppress DDLPS xenograft tumor growth accompanying decreased proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) level and increased cleaved caspase 3 level in vivo. Mechanically, luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) identified that CK1α was targeted and downregulated by miR-199a-3p. Expression of CK1α was lower in DDLPS tissues. Besides, there was a negative linear correlation between expressions of miR-199a-3p and CK1α in DDLPS tissues. Rescue experiments indicated that CK1α silencing could abolish the effect of miR-199a-3p knockdown on cell viability and apoptosis in DDLPS cells in vitro. In conclusion, knockdown of miR-199a-3p inhibits DDLPS cell viability and enhances apoptosis through targeting CK1α in vitro and in vivo. Our results suggest miR-199a-3p/CK1α axis may be a novel pathogen of DDLPS. |
