摘要
Mir-22-3p is associated with many important biological processes, including neuroprotection, tumorigenesis, and various other tumor progressions. Our study aimed to investigate the roles of Mir-22-3p in chemosensitivity of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST-T1) cells to cisplatin and explore its underlying mechanisms. @@@ Mir-22-3p high-expressing cell line was established by transfecting GIST-T1 cell line cells with Mir-22-3p mimic. After treatment with cisplatin (10 mu M), Cell counting kits-8 (CCK-8) method was used to detect the cell viability. Flow cytometry was applied to measure the degree of cell apoptosis. Scratch wound healing test was used to detect the migration ability of cells. The protein and mRNA levels of the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) /phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) /protein kinase B (Akt) pathway-related factors were analyzed by Western blot and qRT-PCR. @@@ The mRNA level of Mir-22-3p was increased in transfected GIST-T1 cells compared with that in control cells. The survival rate and Bcl-2/Bax ratio of GIST-T1 cells treated with both Mir-22-3p analogue and cisplatin were significantly decreased, while the apoptosis rate and protein level of caspase-3 were significantly increased (p<0.05). In addition, the mRNA and protein levels of PTENwere significantly increased in cells treated with both Mir-22-3p analogue and cisplatin (p<0.05), while the expression levels of PI3K and Akt were significantly decreased (p<0.05). @@@ Mir-22-3p overexpression can increase the chemosensitivity of cisplatin in human gastrointestinal stromal tumor cells by PTEN/PI3K/Akt pathway.
