ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of circTRIM33-12 on proliferation,apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)of brain glioma cells by miR-191/DAB2 axis.Methods The expressions of circTRIM33-12,miR-191 and DAB2 in brain glioma cell CHG-5 and human normal brain glial epithelial cells HEB were detected by RT-PCR.The cultured CHG-5 cells were divided into the siRNA NC group,the circTRIM33-12 siRNA group,the DAB2 siRNA group;the mimics NC group,the miR-191 mimics group;the circTRIM33-12 WT+mimics NC group,the circTRIM33-12 WT+miR-191 mimics group,the circTRIM33-12 MUT+ mimics NC group,the circTRIM33-12 MUT+miR-191 mimics group;the inhibitor NC group,the miR-191 inhibitor group;the pcDNA+ mimics NC group,the pcDNA-TRIM33-12+mimics NC group,the pcDNA+miR-191 mimics group,the pcDNA-TRIM33-12+miR-191 mimics group;the DAB2 WT+mimics NC group,the DAB2 WT+miR-191mimis group,the DAB2 MUT+mimics NC group,the DAB2 MUT+ miR-191 mimis group.CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effects of the expressions of circTRIM33-12,miR-191 and DAB2 on the prolifera-tion ability of CHG-5 cells;flow cytometry was used to detect the effects of the expressions of circTRIM33-12,miR-191 and DAB2 on the apoptosis of CHG-5 cells;Western blot was used to detect the effects of the expressions of circTRIM33-12,miR-191 and DAB2 on EMT of CHG-5 cells.TargetScan database was used to analyze the correlations among miR-191,circTRIM33-12 and DAB2,and dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify their relationships;RT-qPCR was used to detect the effect of circTRIM33-12 on DAB2 expression through miR-191.Results Compared with HEB cells,the expression of circTRIM33-12 in CHG-5 cells was down-regulated(P<0.01),the expression of miR-191 was up-regulated(P<0.01),and the expression of DAB2 was down-regulated(P<0.01).Compared with the siRNA NC group,the proliferation activity and N-cadherin expression of CHG-5 cells in the circTRIM33-12 siRNA group and the DAB2 siRNA group were significantly increased(P<0.01),while the apoptosis rate and E-cadherin expression were decreased(P<0.01).circTRIM33-12 targeted miR-191,and miR-191 targeted DAB2.Compared with the inhibitor NC group,the proliferation activity and N-cadherin expression of CHG-5 cells in the miR-191 inhibitor group were significantly decreased(P<0.01),while the apoptosis rate and E-cadherin expression were increased(P<0.01).circTRIM33-12 overexpression inhibited CHG-5 cell proliferation and EMT through miR-191.Conclusion circTRIM33-12 may regulate the proliferation,apoptosis and EMT of brain glioma cells through the miR-191/DAB2 axis.
