Objective:

To investigate the regulatory effect of lncRNA MALAT1/miR-141-3p/ZEB1 axis on the invasion, metastasis and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) of gastric cancer (GC) cells.

Methods:

Thirty-eight pairs of GC tissues (non-necrotic part) and corresponding adjacent tissues (>5 cm away from tumor tissue) removed by general surgery in Wuhan Commercial Hospital from April 2014 to May 2017 were collected. Meanwhile, normal gastric epithelial GES1 cells and GC cell lines (SGC7901, HGC27, BGC823, MKN45 and MKN28) were selected. The expression level of MALAT1 and miR-141-3p in GC tissues and cell lines were detected by qPCR. The effect of MALAT1 knockdown on proliferation, migration and invasion of SGC7901 cells was determined by CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay. WB was performed for measuring the expression level of ZEB1, E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Vimentin. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to validate the relationship among MALAT1, miR-141-3p and ZEB1. CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay were used to detect the effect of MALAT1/miR-141-3p/ZEB1 axis on biological behaviors of SGC7901 cells.

Results:

MALAT1 was over-expressed in GC tissues and cell lines (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Knockdown of MALAT1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT of SGC7901 cells (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The results of dual luciferase reporter gene assay showed that MALAT1 directly targeted miR-141-3p, as well as for miR-141-3p and ZEB1. Further experiment indicated that simultaneous over-expression of miR-141-3p and MALAT1 or ZEB1 could restore the biological behaviors of SGC7901 cells, which were inhibited by miR-141-3p.

Conclusion:

MALAT1 promotes the invasion, metastasis and EMT of GC SGC7901 cells by down-regulating the inhibitory effect of miR-141-3p on ZEB1.
