ABSTRACT
This study examined the internal mechanism of miR-210-3p/CELF2 in LUSC. Expression data of mRNAs and miRNAs in LUSC were acquired from TCGA and subjected to differential expression analysis. qRT-PCR was applied to examine miR-210-3p and CELF2 expression. Besides, western blot was utilized to evaluate protein expression of CELF2 and PI3K/AKT pathway-related proteins. Dual-luciferase reporter analysis was conducted to validate targeting relationship between miR-210-3p and CELF2. Additionally, CCK-8, colony formation, transwell and flow cytometry were employed to respectively test proliferation, migration, invasion abilities and cell cycle distribution. Xenograft tumor models were used to evaluate the influence of miR-210-3p and CELF2 on tumor growth. MiR-210-3p was highly expressed, while CELF2 was less expressed in LUSC cells. Besides, miR-210-3p could downregulate CELF2 expression. Cell functional assay verified that miR-210-3p accelerated aggressive behaviors of LUSC cells. Additionally, rescue assay suggested that miR-210-3p downregulated CELF2 level to stimulate LUSC cell phenotypes and cell cycle progression through PI3K/AKT pathway. Moreover, miR-210-3p/CELF2 stimulated the tumor growth in vivo. To sum up, miR-210-3p modulated CELF2 expression, thus affecting cell phenotypes and cell cycle distribution in LUSC through PI3K/AKT pathway.
