ABSTRACT
Background:
This research aims to investigate the expression and biological roles of miR-497-5p in gastric cancer (GC), and its possible mechanisms.Methods:
Real Time Quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed to detect miR-497-5p in GC and normal tissues, as well as GC cell lines versus normal gastric mucosal cells (GES-1). The effects of miR-497-5p overexpression on proliferation were measured by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay and ethidium bromide (EdU) assay. Flow cytometry was used to assess the cell cycle. The migration and invasion were evaluated by scratch assay and Transwell assay, respectively. Gene targets of miR-497-5p were predicted using "multiMiR" R package combined with mirTarPathway database. And then luciferase reporter experiment was used to evaluate the activity of ERBB2 by miR-497-5p mimics in GC cell line. Besides, functional experiments were performed to verify the impact of miR-497-5p /ERBB2 on phenotypes of GC cells.Results:
Compared with the normal tissues and mucosal cells, miR-497-5p was reduced in GC tissues and GC cell lines. miR-497-5p significantly decreased proliferation, migration, and invasion capacity, with an elevated apoptosis ratio of gastric cancer cells. Bioinformatics indicated that ERBB2 might be the potential target of miR-497-5p Dual-luciferase reporter experiments showed it adversely regulated ERBB2 3'UTR luciferase activity. The expression of ERBB2 in GC tissues and cells is significantly higher compared to normal tissues and cells. Over-expression of ERBB2 in gastric cancer cells significantly reduced miR-497-5p's inhibitory effect on the malignant behavior of GC cells.Conclusion:
miR-497-5p was significantly down-regulated in GC tissues and cells, which inhibited the malignant features of GC cells by targeting ERBB2.
