Description
Abstract
Objective. To illustrate the molecular
mechanism of microRNA-490-3p regulating gastric
cancer (GC) cells by targeting AURKA.
Methods. Genes with significantly different
expression in GC and normal tissue in TCGA-STAD
dataset were analyzed by bioinformatics. Expression
levels of genes and proteins in GC cells were measured
by qRT-PCR and western blot. The interaction between
microRNA-490-3p and AURKA was verified by dual
luciferase assay. Proliferation, migration, invasion and
apoptosis of GC cells were evaluated through a set of
cell function assays.
Results. MicroRNA-490-3p was significantly less
expressed in GC, while AURKA was significantly
highly expressed. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay
proved that microRNA-490-3p targeted AURKA. Upregulation of microRNA-490-3p restrained proliferation,
migration, invasion and stimulated apoptosis of GC
cells, which was attenuated by overexpression of
AURKA.
Conclusions. MicroRNA-490-3p was likely to
restrain the development of GC cells by inhibiting
AURKA, and it may be an underlying target for GC
treatment
