MicroRNA-215-3p Suppresses the Growth, Migration, and Invasion of Colorectal Cancer by Targeting FOXM1.

ABSTRACT: Previous investigations have indicated that microRNA-215-3p is dysregulated in many kinds of cancers and functions as oncogene or tumor suppressor. However, the potential role of microRNA-215-3p in the progression of colorectal cancer remains not well known. Herein, we demonstrated that microRNA-215-3p was downregulated in human colorectal cancer tissues and was reversely correlated to the lymph node metastasis of colorectal cancer. Overexpression of microRNA-215-3p inhibited the clonogenic abilities and metastasis-relevant traits of colorectal cancer cell in vitro. Consistently, upregulation of microRNA-215-3p inhibited the growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer cell in vivo. Forkhead box protein M1 was identified as a direct target of microRNA-215-3p and reexpression of forkhead box protein M1 reversed the suppressive impacts of microRNA-215-3p on the growth, mobility, and invasion abilities of colorectal cancer cell. Altogether, these results revealed the vital role of microRNA-215-3p in the tumorigenesis and metastasis of colorectal cancer.

Project description:As a member of the integrin family, integrin α3β1 (ITGA3) has been linked to intercellular communication and serves an important role in the signaling among cells and the extracellular matrix. MicroRNA (miR)‑199a‑5p has been demonstrated to be related to the pathogenesis and progression of multiple malignant diseases. However, the biological functions of miR‑199a‑5p and ITGA3 in colorectal cancer (CRC) have rarely been reported. The aim of the present study was to explore the roles of miR‑199a‑5p and ITGA3 in CRC. Immunohistochemistry staining and western blotting were applied to detect the protein expression of ITGA3 in CRC tissues and cells. Reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR was performed to investigate the expression of miR‑199a‑5p and ITGA3 mRNA. HCT‑116 cells were transfected with miR‑199a‑5p mimics, mimics control, short hairpin RNA targeting ITGA3, or pcDNA‑ITGA3 for the functional experiments. Dual luciferase reporter assay was applied to confirm whether miR‑199a‑5p targeted the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of ITGA3. The MTT, Transwell and wound healing assays were used to evaluate the proliferation, invasion and migration of CRC cells. Immunofluorescence assay was used to monitor the epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) biomarker expression. The results demonstrated downregulation of miR‑199a‑5p and upregulation of ITGA3 in CRC tissues and cell lines. miR‑199a‑5p mimics and knockdown of ITGA3 suppressed the proliferation, invasion and migration of CRC cells. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assay indicated that miR‑199a‑5p targeted the 3'UTR of the ITGA3 transcript, and overexpression of ITGA3 reversed the tumor‑suppressive effects of miR‑199a‑5p elevation. In addition, the immunofluorescence assay suggested that miR‑199a‑5p mimics suppressed the EMT of CRC cells, whereas the overexpression of ITGA3 restored this effect. In conclusion, miR‑199a‑5p may act as a tumor suppressor by targeting and negatively regulating ITGA3 in CRC.
