| Sumario: | Introduction. miR-199a has been reported as an oncogene of various cancers. However, the biological function and regulatory mechanism of miR-199a in keratinocytes of cholesteatoma are still unclear. Methods. Detection by qRT-PCR was conducted on miR-199a’s expression in both thirty pairs of cholesteatoma tissues and normal skins. For characterizing the function of miR-199a, this research adopted transwell assay, wound healing assay, and CCK8 assays. Under the support of qRT-PCR, efforts were made to investigate the relative expression of candidate target genes. Moreover, the evaluation of the targeting relationship between miR-199a and the candidate target gene was conducted with the dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results. The upregulation of miR-199a was found in cholesteatoma tissues, which facilitated the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HaCaT cells, while its downregulation caused opposite results. Conclusions. The findings of the present research offer more insights into the molecular mechanism of cholesteatoma progression. |
