Popis: | Gastric cancer is a common lethal malignancy and causes great cancer-related mortality worldwide. MicroRNA (miR)-328-3p is implicated in the progression of various human cancers; however, its role and mechanism in the progression of gastric cancer remain unclear.Human gastric cancer cells were incubated with miR-328-3p mimic, inhibitor or the matched negative control. Cell viability, colony formation, migrative and invasive capacity, cell apoptosis and oxidative stress were measured. To clarify the involvement of nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), small interfering RNA was used. miR-328-3p was upregulated in human gastric cancer cells and tissues, and its level positively correlated with the progression of gastric cancer. miR-328-3p promoted cell viability, colony formation, migration and invasion, thereby facilitating the progression of gastric cancer. miR-328-3p mimic reduced, while miR-328-3p inhibitor increased apoptosis and oxidative stress of human gastric cancer cells. Mechanistically, miR-328-3p upregulated NRF2 via targeting KEAP1to attenuate excessive free radical production and cell apoptosis. miR-328-3p functions as an oncogenic gene and inhibiting miR-328-3p may help to develop novel therapeutic strategies of human gastric cancer. |
