Abstract
To investigate the expression of miR-126 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) tissues and its biological function. The lymphoma tissues of 46 DLBCL patients in our hospital were selected as the research object, and the lymph node hyperplasia tissue of 31 patients with reactive hyperplasia were selected as controls. The expression level of miR-126 in the patients' tissues was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and the correlation of miR-126 expression with the pathological characteristics and prognosis of the patients was analyzed. The DLBCL cell line SU-DHL-4 was transfected with miR-126 inhibitor and its negative control (NC inhibitor) or miR-126 mimics and its negative control (NC mimics). RT-qPCR assay was used to detect the expression level of miR-126 in cells; MTT method was used to detect cell proliferation activity; single clone formation test was used to detect cells colony-forming ability; Annexin V/PI double staining assay was used to detect cell apoptosis; Transwell test was used to detect cell migration and invasion ability; the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins cleaved-Caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blot. miR-126 was highly expressed in lymphoma tissues of DLBCL patients, and its expression level was significantly correlated with Hans type, IPI score and Ann-Arbor stage of DLBCL patients (P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the survival rate of DLBCL patients with high expression of miR-126 was significantly lower than that of patients with low expression (P<0.05). Compared with the NC mimics group, the miR-126 expression level, cell proliferation rate, number of colony-forming units, migration and invasion ability, and Bcl-2 protein expression level in the miR-126 mimics group were significantly increased (P<0.05), but the cells apoptotic rate, cleaved-Caspase-3 and Bax protein expression levels were significantly reduced (P<0.05). Compared with the NC inhibitor group, the miR-126 expression level, cell proliferation rate, number of colony-forming units, migration and invasion ability, and Bcl-2 protein expression level in the miR-126 inhibitor group were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but the cells apoptosis rate, cleaved-Caspase-3 and Bax protein expression levels were significantly increased (P<0.05). miR-126 is highly expressed in lymphoma tissues of DLBCL patients and its expression level is related to the poor prognosis of patients. miR-126 can promote DLBCL cell proliferation, invasion and migration, and inhibit cell apoptosis.
