Abstract

ObjectivesTo explore the biological function and mechanism of miR-199a-3p in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). MethodsWe investigated the expression of miR-199a-3p in CCRCC through quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Over expression of miR-199a-3p was performed in CCRCC cell lines, and cell growth curve, colony formation capacity, cell invasion, wound healing and cell apoptosis assay were used for investigating the roles of miR-199a-3p in CCRCC. ResultsThe expression of miR-199a-3p in CCRCC tissues was significantly lower than that in para-carcinoma tissues. Functional assay showed that over expression of miR-199a-3p influenced cell growth, colony formation, cell invasion, cell migration and cell apoptosis in CCRCC cell lines. ConclusionsOur work suggested that miR-199a-3p was related to cell growth, colony formation, cell invasion, cell migration and cell apoptosis, which might act as a tumor suppressor in CCRCC.
