Senescence is activated in response to gemcitabine to prevent the propagation of cancer cells. However, there is little evidence on whether senescence is involved in gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs (miRs) are potential regulators of cellular senescence. The present study aimed to investigate whether aberrant miR-7 expression modulated senescence to influence pancreatic cancer resistance to chemotherapy. In the present study, cell senescence assay, ALDEFLUOR™ assay, luciferase reporter assay, flow cytometry, quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis were performed to explore the association between senescence and gemcitabine therapy response, and to clarify the underlying mechanisms. The present study revealed that gemcitabine-induced chronically existing senescent pancreatic cells possessed stemness markers. Therapy-induced senescence led to gemcitabine resistance. Additionally, it was found that miR-7 expression was decreased in gemcitabine-resistant pancreatic cancer cells, and that miR-7 acted as an important regulator of cellular senescence by targeting poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1)/NF-κB signaling. When miR-7 expression was restored, it was able to sensitize pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that miR-7 regulated cellular senescence and relieved gemcitabine resistance by targeting the PARP1/NF-κB axis in pancreatic cancer cells.

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.
