Abstract

Hsa-miR-3658 Promotes Cell Proliferation, Migration and Invasion by Effecting LASS2 in Bladder Cancer by Ting Luan, Renchao Zou, Lijuan Huang, Ning Li, Shi Fu, Yinglong Huang, Haifeng Wang, Jiansong Wang

Background: Hsa-miR-3658 is upregulated in various tumors, but its expression in bladder cancer has been rarely studied.
Methods: In this study, hsa-miR-3658 expressions in several bladder cancer cell lines were examined, and its effect on the malignant degree of bladder cancer and whether hsa-miR-3658 regulates tumor biological behaviors through LASS2 and its downstream molecular pathway were studied and validated.
Results: It was found miR-3658 expressions differed among different cell lines, which may be an influence factor on the malignancy. MiR-3658 can enhance the proliferation, migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells, inhibit cell adhesion and reduce cell chemosensitivity. MiR-3658 can promote the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of bladder cancer cells through the molecular mechanism of affecting the expressions of epithelial-mesenchymal transition marker protein and related transcription factors.
Conclusions: MiRNA-3658 is upregulated in bladder cancer cells, and this change is associated with the proliferation, invasion and resistance of bladder cancer cells. The effect of miR-3658 on bladder cancer cell biology may be associated with the effect on LASS2.
