| Popis: | PURPOSE Chemoresistance remains the primary obstacle threatening the prognosis of retinoblastoma (RB). microRNAs (miRNAs) are acknowledged as critical regulators of drug resistance. This study explored the molecular mechanism of miR-130a-3p affecting the chemosensitivity of RB to vincristine (VCR). METHODS miR-130a-3p expression of human retinal astrocytes and RB cell lines (Y79, WERI-Rb-1, SO-Rb50, and SO-Rb70) was detected using RT-qPCR. VCR-resistant RB cell line Y79/VCR was induced. miR-130a-3p expression of Y79/VCR cell line and its corresponding parental cell line was detected. Y79/VCR cells were subjected to miR-130a-3p overexpression treatment. The cell proliferation was measured using MTT assay, and the IC50 value and drug resistance index were examined using CCK-8 assay. The targeting relationship between miR-130a-3p and PAX6 was predicted through bioinformatics analysis and verified using dual-luciferase assay. Functional rescue experiments were conducted to confirm the role of PAX6 in chemosensitivity of RB cells. The effect of miR-130a-3p on tumorigenesis and VCR sensitivity was observed in vivo. RESULTS miR-130a-3p was downregulated in VCR-resistant RB cells. Overexpression of miR-130a-3p repressed the proliferation of Y79/VCR cells and enhanced chemosensitivity. miR-130a-3p targeted PAX6 expression. Overexpression of PAX6 reversed the effect of miR-130a-3p on chemosensitivity of Y79/VCR cells. Overexpression of miR-130a-3p suppressed tumor growth and reduced VCR resistance in vivo. CONCLUSIONS miR-130a-3p enhanced the chemosensitivity of Y79 RB cells to VCR by targeting PAX6 expression. |
