MiR-193 inhibits bladder cancer progression by targeting N-myc
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Growing evidence has indicated that miR-193 is involved in the initiation and progression of malignancy, such as bladder cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and colorectal cancer. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of miR-193 in the development of metastatic bladder cancer remains unknown. In the current study, we clarified the association of miR-193/N-myc was implicated in cancer metastasis. miR-193 expression increased in metastatic bladder cancer biopsies compared to the primary cases. Moreover, the elevation of miR-193 was correlated with the invasiveness, lymph node metastasis, and advanced stages of bladder cancer significantly. Downregulation of miR-193 by shRNA hampered proliferation and migration while inducing cell apoptosis. Furthermore, miR-193 sponged N-myc and diminished miR-103 expression. Overexpression of miR-193 released oncogene N-myc expression, leading to the promotion of cell proliferation and migration. Besides, knockout of miR-193 suppressed tumor growth in the human T24 mice models. Briefly, the present findings suggested that miR-193-N-myc were novel promising pathways for conquering bladder cancer progression.
