Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act an important role in the progression of tumor. In this study, we showed that the serum expression of miR-365 was downregulated in the glioblastoma compared with in the healthy controls. We also demonstrated that miR-365 expression was downregulated in glioblastoma tissues compared with the adjacent normal tissues. Overexpression of miR-365 suppressed the glioblastoma cell proliferation and migration. Moreover, ectopic expression of miR-365 promoted the expression of Ecadherin while inhibited the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin in U87 cell. Furthermore, we identified PAX6 as a direct target gene of miR-365 in U87 cell. Overexpression of miR-365 suppressed glioblastoma cell proliferation and migration and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition through inhibiting PAX6 expression. These results suggested that miR-365 played a tumor suppressor in glioblastoma.

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.
