Abstract
Background/AimsTo analyze the clinical significance of miR-196b expression in ovarian cancer and predict the function and possible mechanism of miR-196b.MethodsBoth Kaplan–Meier (K-M) and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to analyze the prognostic factors of patients with ovarian cancer. MiR196-b was modulated in ovarian cancer cells, and the cell viability, cell cycle, and cell cycle-related gene expression were analyzed. The target genes of miR-196b were then predicted and checked the relationship between the target genes.ResultsMiR-196b was an independent risk factor, while high expression of miR-196b was associated with poor prognosis of ovarian cancer. MiR-196b overexpression increased cancer cell proliferation. Cdkn1b, as one of the targets of miR-196b, was related to cell viability and mitosis.ConclusionHigh expression of miR-196b was significantly associated with poor prognosis of the patients with ovarian cancer. MiR-196b could increase the cell proliferation of ovarian cancer by modulating Cdkn1b expression.
