miR-5701 promoted apoptosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma cells by targeting phosphodiesterase-1B.
2021
Increasing evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs play critical roles in malignant biological behaviors, including cancerogenesis, cancer progression and metastasis, through the regulation of target genes expression. As miR-5701 has recently been identified to play roles as tumor suppressor miRNA in the development of some kinds of cancers, in this study we sought to investigate the role of miR-5701 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Colony formation, cell apoptosis and proliferation assays were employed, and the results showed that miR-5701 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of ccRCC cells. Western blotting and dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to confirm that PDE1B is a new direct target of miR-5701. Furthermore, overexpression of PDE1B attenuated the effects of miR-5701, indicating that miR-5701 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of ccRCC cells via targeting PDE1B. Taken together, the data presented here indicate that t miR-5701 is a tumor suppressor in ccRCC and PDE1B is a new target of miR-5701.
