TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: microRNA-203 suppresses bladder cancer development by repressing bcl-w expression

It is increasingly clear that microRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in many diseases, including tumorigenesis. However, the mechanisms by which miRNAs regulate bladder cancer development remain poorly under-stood. | BFEBS Journal microRNA-203 suppresses bladder cancer development by repressing bcl-w expression Juanjie Bo Guoliang Yang Kailing Huo Haifeng Jiang Lianhua Zhang Dongming Liu and Yiran Huang Department of Urology Renji Hospital Shanghai Jiaotong University China Keywords apoptosis bcl-w bladder cancer miR-203 proliferation Correspondence D.

However the mechanisms by which miRNAs regulate bladder cancer development remain poorly understood. Here we evaluated the expression of microRNA-203 miR-203 in bladder cancer tissues using real-time PCR and defined the target genes and biologically functional effect using luciferase reporter assay flow cytometry and western blot analysis. We first verified that the expression of miR-203 was decreased in bladder cancer tissues. Moreover ectopic expression of miR-203 promoted the apoptosis of human bladder cancer cell lines and inhibited cell proliferation whereas its depletion increased cell growth. We further verified that miR-203 directly targeted 3 -untranslated region of the bcl-w gene and decreased its expression in vitro and in vivo. Western blot analysis also showed that the expression level of miR-203 was negatively correlated with bcl-w level in tumor tissues. These data suggest an important role for miR-203 in the molecular etiology of bladder cancer and implicate the potential application of miR-203 in bladder cancer therapy. Introduction Human bladder cancer is the fourth most common malignancy in men and the tenth most common in women 1 . Molecular and pathological studies suggest that bladder
