MiR-101-3p Suppresses Progression of Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Targeting and Down-Regulating KPNA2
Objective We explored mechanism of microRNA-101-3p/Karyopherin α2 (KPNA2) axis in cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Bioinformatics methods were applied to identify genes for the study. Cell functional assays were implemented to examine the role of the genes in malignant progression of cervi...

Sumario: | Objective We explored mechanism of microRNA-101-3p/Karyopherin α2 (KPNA2) axis in cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Bioinformatics methods were applied to identify genes for the study. Cell functional assays were implemented to examine the role of the genes in malignant progression of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Targeting relationship between genes was verified by dual-luciferase assay. Results: MicroRNA-101-3p was lowly expressed in cervical squamous cell carcinoma, while KPNA2 was highly expressed. Dual-luciferase assay identified direct targeting relationship between microRNA-101-3p and KPNA2. Functional assays manifested that highly expressed microRNA-101-3p suppressed cervical squamous cell carcinoma cell growth by targeting KPNA2. Conclusion: Overall, microRNA-101-3p/KPNA2 axis can play an important part in progression of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. |
