Expression of miR-762 in pancreatic cancer and its effect on biological behavior of pancreatic cancer cells
Background and purpose: The abnormally expressed miR-762 in various malignant tumors is involve
d in the proliferation
apoptosis
invasion and metastasis of tumors. Aim of the present study was to study the expression of miR-762 in pancreatic cancer tissues and cell lines and its effect on the proliferation
metastasis and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells. Methods: Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) was used to detect the expression of miR-762 mRNA in pancreatic cancer tissues who received radical resection of pancreatic cancer in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University and cell lines. The miR-762 mimics
miR-762 inhibitors and scramble sequences were transfected into PANC-1 cells with Lipofectamine
TM
2000. The proliferation
apoptosis and migratory and invasive abilities of PANC-1 cells were detected with cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay
flow cytometry
wound healing assay and Transwell assay. The expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related markers were determined by Western blot. Results: The miR-762 expression was significantly up-regulated in pancreatic cancer tissues compared with paracancerous tissues (P0.01). Similarly
miR-762 expressions of the four pancreatic cancer cell lines (BxPC-3
PANC-1
AsPC-1 and SW-1990) were significantly higher than those in the normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cells HPDE (P0.01). miR-762 mRNA expression in PANC-1 cell line was obviously increased after transfection with miR-762 mimics
but markedly decreased after transfection with miR-762 inhibitors (P0.01). Meanwhile

the healing rate
invasive cells and expressions of N-cadherin and vimentin proteins in miR-762 mimics group were significantly higher than those in negative control group after transfection
and apoptotic rate and E-cadherin protein expression were significantly lower than those in negative control group after transfection. D

the healing rate
invasive cells and expressions of N-cadherin and vimentin in miR-762 inhibitors group were significantly lower than those in negative control
group after transfection
while apoptotic rate and E-cadherin expression were significantly higher than those in negative control group after transfection (P0.05). Conclusion: The over-expression of miR-762 can effectively enhance the proliferation
