MiRNA expression profiling in cervical cancer cells following emodin treatment
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide. The role of HPV in cervical cancer is well studied, however, the underlying mechanism promoting cervical tumorigenesis is still not fully understood. Recently, emodin was shown to induce cell cycle arrest, induction of differentiation, downregulation of TGF β signaling pathway and apoptosis in cervical cancer cell lines. Further, recent studies have shown the role of miRNAs in mediating abnormal regulatory mechanisms leading to the pathogenesis of cervical cancer and large scale miRNA profiling studies have examined the use of miRNAs as cervical cancer diagnostic markers. However, to date, there is no study being performed to analyze the changes in miRNAs following emodin treatment to determine whether emodin mediates its effects by regulating the expression of miRNAs. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to perform miRNA profiling in cervical cancer cells following emodin treatment and to analyze the roles of differentially expressed miRNAs in regulating the pathogenesis and treatment of cervical cancer.
