Abstract

BackgroundmiRNA was recently detected as tumor suppressor or inducer in various cancers including gliomas. Due to the abnormal expression of miR-4262 in glioma cancer, we supposed that miR-4262 made efforts in proliferation and migration in glioma cancer. MethodsCCK-8, Transwell migration Assay and Wound-healing assay were appraisal assays for cell proliferation and migration. qRT-PCR and western blot were performed to test the expression of miR-4262, MMP2, MMP13 and LATS1 in glioma cancers tissues and cancer cells. The targeting detection between miR-4262 and LATS1 was detected by luciferase reporter assay. ResultsmiR-4262 expression was dramatically higher in glioma tumor tissues than in para-tumor control. Inhibition of miR-4262 in glioma cancer cells prominently inhibited cell proliferation and migration. Mechanically, downregulation of miR-4262 inhibited expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -2, -13. In addition, miR-4262 directly and negatively modulated expression of large tumor suppressor 1 (LATS1). Moreover, we discovered that overexpression of LATS1 could reverse the effects of miR-4262 on cell proliferation and migration, as well as the production of MMP-2, -13. ConclusionsIn glioma cancer, miR-4262 regulated cell proliferation and migration mediated by LATS1. This indicated that miR-4262 is a tumor inducer in glioma cancer and may be a feasible target for glioma therapy.
