This study explored the impacts of matrine on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell growth, metastasis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and stemness through regulating the microRNA / () axis. The association between expression with the prognosis of HCC patients was studied. and sequences were transfected into matrine-treated HCC cells, and cell proliferation, invasion, apoptosis, and stemness were detected, as well as protein expression of EMT- and stemness-related makers. The targeting relationship between and was identified. Matrine elevated expression, repressed proliferation, invasion, and anti-apoptosis of HCC cells, and constrained EMT and stemness . was a target of . Repression of rescued the effects of downregulation on HCC cells. Matrine stimulates HCC cell apoptosis and represses the process of EMT and stemness through the / axis.
本研究通过调控 microRNA/()轴探讨了苦参碱对肝癌(HCC)细胞生长、转移、上皮-间充质转化(EMT)和干性的影响。研究了表达与 HCC 患者预后的关系。将和序列转染到苦参碱处理的 HCC 细胞中,检测细胞增殖、侵袭、凋亡和干性,以及 EMT 和干性相关标志物的蛋白表达。鉴定了与之间的靶向关系。苦参碱升高表达,抑制 HCC 细胞的增殖、侵袭和抗凋亡,并抑制 EMT 和干性。是 的靶点。下调的抑制作用被 rescue。苦参碱通过/轴刺激 HCC 细胞凋亡并抑制 EMT 和干性的发生。
