| Popis: | Objectives: An increasing number of studies have confirmed that microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs), as oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes, play an important regulatory role in the occurrence and development of numerous types of cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential role and mechanism of miR-133b and small ubiquitin like modifier 1 (SUMO1) in the development of endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods: First, Venn diagrams are used to identify the differential expressions of miRNAs in EC from GSE35794 and GSE25405 datasets. Next, we conduct a series of functional tests, including Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing, and transwell and matrigel assays. Then, a bioinformatics tool, is used to identify downstream target genes of miR-133b and to verify the predicted results by RT-qPCR, Western blotting and double luciferase reporter gene analysis. Finally, in order to further study whether the cellular function of miR-133b is mediated by the expression of SUMO1 , rescue experiments were carried out. Results: The results of bioinformatics studies showed that the expression of miR-133b was down-regulated in EC tissues, and the expression level of miR-133b was lower in patients with high grade, different histology or menopausal status. The results of functional assay showed that overexpression of miR-133b reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion. On the contrary, miR-133b silence has the opposite effect. SUMO1 was the direct target of miR-133b and was negatively regulated by miR-133b . The decrease of SUMO1 mRNA expression inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of EC cells, and reversed the effect of miR-133b on EC cells. Conclusion: The findings from the present study suggested that miR-133b may be a tumor suppressor gene and a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of EC. |
