Abstract
To investigate the roles of miR-34a in progression and chemoresistance of glioma cells. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that miR-34a level was lower, but PD-L1 expression level was higher in glioma tissue specimens compared with normal brain tissues and their expression levels were negatively correlated. Ectopic expression of miR-34a inhibited glioma cell proliferation, promoted cell cycle arrest in G1/S phase and cell apoptosis. Additionally, miR-34a/PD-L1 axis was again confirmed and co-expression of PD-L1 with miR-34a mimics attenuated the effects of miR-34a on cell proliferation and apoptosis in glioma cells. Importantly, PD-L1 overexpression resulted in chemoresistance in glioma cells, this effect was attenuated by miR-34a overexpression. miR-34a inhibits glioma cells progression and chemoresistance via targeting PD-L1.
