Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of miRNA-155 on invasion and metastasis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma Hep2 cells.Methods LSCC Hep2 cells were cultured and divided into miRNA-155 group and miRNA-155 NC group, respectively, and were transfected with miRNA-155 inhibitor and miRNA-155 negative control (miRNA-155 NC). Both groups of transfected LSCC Hep2 cells were transfected for 48 h, the expression of miRNA-155 was detected by quantitative real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Cell invasion was detected by transwell assay. The expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9, E-cadherin, Vimentin, phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT) were detected by western blot.Results In the transfected Hep2 cells, the relative expression of miRNA-155 in the miRNA-155 group was 0.44 ±0.04, the optical density(OD) value was 0.38 ±0.04, and the number of cell invasion was 39.4 ±4.3, were significantly lower than those in the miRNA-155 NC group 1.52±0.15, 0.68 ±0.07, and 157.8 ±12.6. The differences were statistically significant (t=34.082, 18.229, 43.531, all P values<0.01). Compared with the expression of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway related proteins in Hep2 cells, the expression levels of MMP-2, MMP-9, Vimentin, PI3K, AKT and p-AKT in the miRNA-155 group (0.38±0.03, 0.25±0.02, 0.29±0.02, 0.28±0.03, 0.99±0.05, 0.24±0.02) were lower than those in the miRNA-155 NC group(1.78±0.15, 1.56±0.16, 1.34±0.12, 1.04±0.09, 1.17±0.08, 0.83±0.08), and the expression levels of E-cadherin(1.13±0.10) were higher than those in the miRNA-155 NC group(0.31±0.02). The differences were statistically significant(t=29.345, 46.745, 59.436, 34.217, 15.936, 30.129, 44.621, all P values<0.01).Conclusions Down-regulating the expression of miRNA-155 in LSCC Hep2 cells can reduce cell viability and invasion, and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the expression of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway related proteins.
