Abstract
Tumor hypoxia is one of the main causes of progression and metastasis of colorectal cancer. Changes in the expression of miRNA responsible for post-translation regulation of gene expression is an important molecular mechanism of cell response to hypoxia. We performed sequencing of miRNA and mRNA of human colorectal adenocarcinoma HT-29 cells treated with two chemical agents mimicking hypoxia: cobalt (II) chloride and oxyquinoline. Bioinformatics analysis revealed differentially expressed miRNA isoforms (hsa-miR-210-3p|0, hsa-miR- 22-3p|0, hsa-let-7a-3p|0, hsa-miR-615-3p|0, and hsa-miR-4521|0) and their targets that changed their expression in both models of hypoxia. Thus, we identified new regulatory mechanisms of cell response to hypoxia.
