Title: MicroRNA-1258 suppresses tumour progression via GRB2/Ras/Erk pathway in non-small-cell lung cancer. Author: Jiang W, Wei K, Pan C, Li H, Cao J, Han X, Tang Y, Zhu S, Yuan W, He Y, Xia Y, Chen L, Chen Y. Journal: Cell Prolif; 2018 Dec; 51(6):e12502. PubMed ID: 30069987. Abstract: OBJECTIVES: Lung cancer is still a disease with high morbidity and mortality in the world. MicroRNAs have been proven to act as an indispensable role in the reuse of multiple solid tumours. Although miR-1258 plays a vital role in suppressing metastasis in breast cancer and gastric cancer, the specific biological function of miR-1258 in non-small-cell lung cancer remains unclear. METHODS: The differential expression of miR-1258 in NSCLC tissues and corresponding paracancerous tissues was detected by qRT-PCR and ISH. Flow cytometry and CCK-8, EdU, tubule formation, and senescence assays were performed, and xenograft models were studied to explore the function of miR-1258. Potential targets of miR-1258 were verified by dual luciferase reporter assay, qRT-PCR, IHC and Western blotting. RESULTS: In vitro and in vivo gain- and loss-of-function assays suggested that miR-1258 inhibits NSCLC cell proliferation and induces senescence and apoptosis. The luciferase reporter assay, IHC and Western blotting analysis showed that GRB2 is one of the direct targets of miR-1258. The GRB2 overexpression plasmid can reverse the functional changes after overexpression of miR-1258. In contrast, miR-1258 inhibitor significantly reversed si-GRB2-induced GRB2 down-regulation. Mechanistically, overexpression of miR-1258 inhibits GRB2 expression and then leads to inactivation of the Ras/Erk oncogenic pathway. CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that miR-1258 can suppress NSCLC progression by targeting the GRB2/Ras/Erk pathway, which may lead to different insights into potential biomarkers and novel therapeutic strategies for NSCLC patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
