چکیده

OBJECTIVE The aim of the current study was to elucidate the role of miR-455-3p in the pathogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and its prognostic value in patients with ESCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Expression levels of miR-455-3p and FAM83F mRNA in ESCC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were detected by quantitative RT-PCR. The X2-test was used to assess miR-455-3p expression on clinicopathological parameters. The association with overall survival of patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Cox's multivariate regression model was performed to identify independent prognostic factors of overall survival. The effect of miR-455-3p on proliferation was evaluated by   kit-8 (CCK-8), and cell invasion was evaluated by transwell assays. The molecular target of miR-455-3p was identified using a computer algorithm and confirmed experimentally. Furthermore, the effect of miR-455-3p up-regulation on FAM83F expression was examined by Western blot. RESULTS miRNA-455-3p was significantly increased in ESCC tissues and cell lines. Also, miR-455-3p expression was significantly associated with histological grade, lymph nodes metastasis and clinical stage (all p < 0.05). The patients with low miR-455-3p expression had shorter survival time than those with high miR-455-3p expression. Furthermore, univariate and multivariate analysis identified low miR-455-3p expression as an unfavorable prognostic factor for overall survival. Moreover, transfection with the miR-455-3p mimic enhanced the cell proliferation and invasion in ESCC cells. Luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR-455-3p binding to the 3'-UTR regions of FAM83F inhibited the expression of FAM83F in ESCC cells. Western blot confirmed that overexpression of miR-455-3p resulted in down-regulation of FAM83F in ESCC cells. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that miR-455-3p plays an anti-oncogenic role in the development of ESCC by downregulation of FAM83F and could be an independent marker for predicting the clinical outcome of ESCC patients.

MicroRNA-455-3p promotes invasion and migration in triple negative breast cancer by targeting tumor suppressor EI24

Lacking of treatment methods for the patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) underscores the pivotal needs to further understand its biology as well as to find better biomarkers and develop novel therapeutic strategies. Increasing evidences support that aberrantly expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in tumorigenesis and may serve as biomarkers for diagnostic and prognostic purp...
