MiR-20a-5p functions as a potent tumor suppressor by targeting PPP6C in acute myeloid leukemia.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is as a highly aggressive and heterogeneous hematological malignancy. MiR-20a-5p has been reported to function as an oncogene or tumor suppressor in several tumors, but the clinical significance and regulatory mechanisms of miR-20a-5p in AML cells have not been fully und...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is as a highly aggressive and heterogeneous hematological malignancy. MiR-20a-5p has been reported to function as an oncogene or tumor suppressor in several tumors, but the clinical significance and regulatory mechanisms of miR-20a-5p in AML cells have not been fully understood. In this study, we found miR-20a-5p was significantly decreased in bone marrow from AML patients, compared with that in healthy controls. Moreover, decreased miR-20a-5p expression was correlated with risk status and poor survival prognosis in AML patients. Overexpression of miR-20a-5p suppressed cell proliferation, induced cell cycle G0/G1 phase arrest and apoptosis in two AML cell lines (THP-1 and U937) using CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry analysis. Moreover, miR-20a-5p overexpression attenuated tumor growth in vivo by performing tumor xenograft experiments. Luciferase reporter assay and western blot demonstrated that protein phosphatase 6 catalytic subunit (PPP6C) as a target gene of miR-20a-5p was negatively regulated by miR-20a-5p in AML cells. Furthermore, PPP6C knockdown imitated, while overexpression reversed the effects of miR-20a-5p overexpression on AML cell proliferation, cell cycle G1/S transition and apoptosis. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that miR-20a-5p/PPP6C represent a new therapeutic target for AML and a potential diagnostic marker for AML therapy. |
