MicroRNA-153 suppresses cell invasion by targeting SNAI1 and predicts patient prognosis in glioma.

Glioma is the most common and rapidly progressive type of malignant primary brain tumor in adults. miR-153 plays a major role in many malignancies; nevertheless, few studies have been conducted on glioma. The aim of the present study was to explore the role of miR-153 and SNAI1 on invasion in glioma. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR was employed to measure the expression levels of miR-153 and SNAI1 mRNA. Transwell assay was utilized to calculate the capacity of invasion. Luciferase report assay was applied to detect whether SNAI1 was a target of miR-153. miR-153 was downregulated in glioma tissues and cells versus paracancerous tissues and normal immortalized gliocyte HEB cells. Transwell assay was used to measure whether a low expression of miR-153 in glioma indicated inhibition of cell invasion. We verified that SNAI1 was a target of miR-153 and had a negative association with miR-153 detected by luciferase reporter assay. Additionally, miR-153 suppressed cell invasive ability by regulating SNAI1 expression, whose partial function was reversed by SNAI1. miR-153 suppressed cell invasion of glioma by directly targeting SNAI1. Thus, miR-153/SNAI1 axis may be a novel target for cervical cancer treatment.

TargetScan (tool)

RRID:SCR_010845

Web tool to predict biological targets of miRNAs by searching for presence of conserved 8mer, 7mer and 6mer sites that match seed region of each miRNA. Nonconserved sites are also predicted and sites with mismatches in seed region that are compensated by conserved 3' pairing. Used to search for predicted microRNA targets in mammals.
