Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the main pathological type of lung cancer and has a low overall five-year survival rate. miR-187 has been reported to play major roles in various tumor types. In this study, we explored the impact of miR-187 on NSCLC. qRT-PCR results demonstrated that miR-187 expression is lower in NSCLC and cancer cells than normal tissues and normal lung cells. miR-187 expression levels are associated with tumor size, TNM stage and overall survival rate. MTS and colony formation assays showed that high miR-187 expression inhibits NSCLC cell proliferation and colony formation ability, and flow cytometry showed that miR-187 overexpression induces cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase. A luciferase reporter assay showed that FGF9 is a target of miR-187. miR-187 overexpression reduces the expression of FGF9, cyclin D1 CDK4 and CDK6. Therefore, miR-187 may present a new NSCLC treatment target by regulates cyclins-related protein expression.
非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)是肺癌的主要病理类型,总体五年生存率较低。miR-187 已被报道在多种肿瘤类型中发挥重要作用。在本研究中,我们探讨了 miR-187 对 NSCLC 的影响。qRT-PCR 结果表明,miR-187 在 NSCLC 和癌细胞中的表达低于正常组织和正常肺细胞。miR-187 的表达水平与肿瘤大小、TNM 分期和总生存率相关。MTS 和集落形成实验表明,高 miR-187 表达抑制 NSCLC 细胞的增殖和集落形成能力,流式细胞术表明 miR-187 过表达诱导细胞周期停滞在 G0/G1 期。荧光素酶报告基因实验表明,FGF9 是 miR-187 的靶基因。miR-187 过表达降低了 FGF9、cyclin D1、CDK4 和 CDK6 的表达。因此,miR-187 可能通过调节 cyclins 相关蛋白的表达成为 NSCLC 的新治疗靶点。
