OBJECTIVE: MicroRNAs have been reported to be involved in the regulation of tumor progression. This study investigated the role of miR-152-3p in bladder cancer development. METHODS: A total of 67 bladder cancer cases were enrolled. miR-152-3p expression in bladder cancer tissues and cells were detected using quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Bladder cancer cells were transfected by miR-152-3p mimic and inhibitor to up-regulate and down-regulate miR-152-3p expression. After transfection, cell counting kit-8 assay, flow cytometry, Brdu staining assay, transwell experiment and wound healing assay were conducted to research the effect of miR-152-3p up-regulation/down-regulation on bladder cancer cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation, invasion and migration abilities. The expression of high-mobility group protein A2 (HMGA2) and autophagy-related proteins was researched using Western blot. The interaction between miR-152-3p and HMGA2 was explored by dual luciferase reporter gene assay. RESULTS: Low miR-152-3p expression in tumor tissues bladder cancer patients was associated with poor prognosis. miR-152-3p expression was abnormally down-regulated in bladder cancer cells. miR-152-3p up-regulation inhibited viability, proliferation, invasion, migration but promoted apoptosis of bladder cancer cells. miR-152-3p down-regulation showed the opposite effects. miR-152-3p up-regulation suppressed the expression of Beclin 1 and LC3II/LC3I proteins in bladder cancer cells, but miR-152-3p down-regulation increased them. HMGA2 was target of miR-152-3p, which could be directly inhibited by miR-152-3p. HMGA2 up-regulation reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-152-3p on bladder cancer cell malignant phenotype. CONCLUSION: miR-152-3p inhibited malignant phenotype of bladder cancer cell lines via suppressing HMGA2 expression.
