To evaluate the correlation between MicroRNA-191 (miR-191) and T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) to probe its underlying molecular mechanism.
The expression of miR-191 was examined by real-time PCR (RT-PCR) in 20 T-ALL/LBL tissue samples and 20 lymphoid reactive hyperplasia (LRH) tissue samples. The correlation between miR-191 and the clinicopathological feature of T-ALL/LBL was analyzed. Antisense miR-191 lentiviral vectors was constructed and transfected into T-ALL/LBL Jukat cells. After transfection, the expression of miR-191 was examined by RT-PCR. The cell activity was evaluated by CCK-8 asssy. The cell cycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry.
Compared with LRH samples, the results of RT-PCR showed significant upregulation of miR-191 in 20 T-ALL/LBL tissue samples (1.875±0.079 vs 1.000, P<0.05). The expression level of miR-191 was negatively associated with prognosis. Compared with LV-NC-GFP and control groups, the expression of miR-191 significantly decreased after transfection of antisense miR-191 lentiviral vectors (0.578±0.012 vs 1.011±0.053 and 1.000, P<0.05), the percentages of apoptotic cells and the cell in G0/G1 phase significantly increased (P<0.05).
miR-191 might play a significant role in the development of T-ALL/LBL, implicating a new target for therapy.
评估微小RNA-191(miR-191)与T淋巴母细胞白血病/淋巴瘤(T-ALL/LBL)之间的相关性,以探究其潜在分子机制。
采用实时定量聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测20例T-ALL/LBL组织样本和20例淋巴反应性增生(LRH)组织样本中miR-191的表达。分析miR-191与T-ALL/LBL临床病理特征的相关性。构建反义miR-191慢病毒载体并转染至T-ALL/LBL Jukat细胞。转染后,通过RT-PCR检测miR-191的表达。采用CCK-8法评估细胞活性。通过流式细胞术检测细胞周期和凋亡情况。
与LRH样本相比,RT-PCR结果显示20例T-ALL/LBL组织样本中miR-191显著上调(1.875±0.079对1.000,P<0.05)。miR-191的表达水平与预后呈负相关。与LV-NC-GFP组和对照组相比,转染反义miR-191慢病毒载体后miR-191的表达显著降低(0.578±0.012对1.011±0.053和1.000,P<0.05),凋亡细胞百分比和G0/G1期细胞显著增加(P<0.05)。
miR-191可能在T-ALL/LBL的发生发展中起重要作用,提示其可能成为新的治疗靶点。
