MiR-212 exerts suppressive effect on SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells through targeting HBEGF.
Tumour Biology : the Journal of the International Society for Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine 2014 December
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in the development and progression of ovarian cancer. We found that miR-212 was significantly downregulated in serum and tissues from epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. Overexpression of miR-212 in ovarian cancer cells inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Luciferase reporter assay confirmed HBEGF as a direct target of miR-212. Overexpression of miR-212 decreased HBEGF expression at both the protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels. Knockdown of HBEGF expression in SKOV3 cell line significantly inhibited cell growth, migration, and invasion. HBEGF mRNA level was upregulated in EOC tissues and inversely correlated with miR-212 expression in tissues. Upregulation of HBEGF could attenuate the effect induced by miR-212. These findings indicate that miR-212 displays a tumor-suppressive effect in human ovarian cancer. And miR-212 suppresses cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by targeting the HBEGF transcript, highlighting the therapeutic potential of miR-212 and HBEGF in epithelial ovarian cancer treatment.
