This study sought to explore the role of alpha-Enolase 1 (ENO1) in retinoblastoma (RB) which remains uncertain.
The expression of ENO1 in RB cell lines was examined by RT-qPCR and western blot. The biological function of ENO1 on cell proliferation in RB was determined in vitro. The predicted target of ENO1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay and rescue experiment. The validation of clinical tissue samples was performed by RT-qPCR.
Elevated ENO1 could promote the proliferation of RB cells. The dual luciferase reporter assay confirmed that ENO1 is the target for miR-22-3p. In rescue experiment, the result also indicated that miR-22-3p inhibits the proliferation of RB cells by negatively regulating the expression of ENO1. These differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).
ENO1 functions as an oncogene in RB and inhibiting ENO1 by miR-22-3p suppresses the proliferation of RB cell lines. miR-22-3p/ENO1 pathway may serve as a novel target in RB.
本研究旨在探索烯醇化酶 1(ENO1)在视网膜母细胞瘤(RB)中的作用,但其作用尚不确定。
通过 RT-qPCR 和 Western blot 检测 RB 细胞系中 ENO1 的表达。通过体外实验确定 ENO1 对 RB 细胞增殖的生物学功能。通过双荧光素酶报告基因检测和挽救实验验证 ENO1 的预测靶标。通过 RT-qPCR 验证临床组织样本。
升高的 ENO1 可促进 RB 细胞的增殖。双荧光素酶报告基因检测证实 ENO1 是 miR-22-3p 的靶基因。在挽救实验中,结果也表明 miR-22-3p 通过负调控 ENO1 的表达抑制 RB 细胞的增殖。这些差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。
ENO1 在 RB 中作为癌基因发挥作用,miR-22-3p 通过抑制 ENO1 抑制 RB 细胞系的增殖。miR-22-3p/ENO1 通路可能成为 RB 的一个新靶点。
