Abstract

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most commonplace gynecological malignancies. This study explored the effects of resveratrol (RES) on OC cell proliferation and apoptosis. Proliferation activity was measured for A2780 cells treated with RES for 24 h and 48 h at concentrations of 0, 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, and 300 μM. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to analyze the circular RNA (circRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression spectrum. The differentially expressed genes included 460 circRNAs, 1988 miRNAs, and 1671 mRNAs, and they were subjected to analyses including Gene Ontology, the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Reactome enrichment. We selected signaling pathways enriched in the cell processes by mRNA KEGG, comprehensively analyzed the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network, and verified several miRNAs expressed in the regulatory network diagram using the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The data showed that the cell proliferation of A2780 cells treated with RES for 24 h or 48 h decreased with increasing concentrations of RES. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network that we constructed provides new insights into the ability of RES to inhibit cell proliferation and promote apoptosis in A2780 cells.
