Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease. Exploring the pathogenesis of AML is still an important topic in the treatment of AML. The expression levels of miR-26b-5p and USP48 were measured by qRT-PCR. The expression levels of related proteins were detected by Western blot. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8 and flow cytometry, respectively. Coimmunoprecipitation was used to examine the interaction between USP48 and Wnt5a. Bioinformatics analysis showed that high levels of miR-26b-5p and low levels of USP48 were associated with poor prognosis in AML. miR-26b-5p can negatively regulate the expression of USP48. Downregulation of miR-26b-5p inhibited EMT, cell viability and proliferation of AML cells and accelerated apoptosis. Furthermore, the influence of miR-26b-5p inhibition and USP48 knockdown on AML progression could be reversed by a Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway inhibitor. This study revealed that miR-26b-5p regulates AML progression, possibly by targeting the USP48-mediated Wnt/β-catenin molecular axis to affect AML cell biological behavior.
期刊介绍:
Critical ReviewsTM in Eukaryotic Gene Expression presents timely concepts and experimental approaches that are contributing to rapid advances in our mechanistic understanding of gene regulation, organization, and structure within the contexts of biological control and the diagnosis/treatment of disease. The journal provides in-depth critical reviews, on well-defined topics of immediate interest, written by recognized specialists in the field. Extensive literature citations provide a comprehensive information resource.
Reviews are developed from an historical perspective and suggest directions that can be anticipated. Strengths as well as limitations of methodologies and experimental strategies are considered.
