RCOR1 is targeted by miR-23b-3p to modulate growth, colony formation, migration, and invasion of prostate cancer cells.
Objectives: Prostate cancer holds the second-highest incidence rate among all male malignancies, with a noticeable scarcity of effective treatment approaches. The REST Corepressor 1 (RCOR1) protein exhibits elevated expression across various tumors, acting as an oncogene. Nevertheless, its functions and mechanisms in prostate cancer have yet to be documented. While miR-23 demonstrates reduced expression in prostate cancer, the downstream genes it regulates remain unclear.
Methods: RT-qPCR and Western blotting assays were utilized to elucidate the mRNA and protein levels of miR-23b-3p and RCOR1. The luciferase reporter assay was employed to unveil the targeting relationship between miR-23b-3p and RCOR1. Additionally, a CCK-8 assay demonstrated cell growth, while colony formation and Transwell assays were performed to observe clone formation, cell migration, and invasion.
Results: In this study, we observed substantial mRNA and protein levels of RCOR1 in prostate cancer cells such as DU145, PC3, and LNCap. RCOR1 overexpression enhanced the growth, colony formation, migration, and invasion of prostate cancer cells, whereas genetic silencing of RCOR1 suppressed these processes. Bioinformatics analysis identified miR-23b-3p as a potential regulator of RCOR1, and luciferase assays validated RCOR1 as a downstream target of miR-23b-3p. Increasing miR-23b-3p mimics diminished RCOR1's mRNA and protein levels, while raising miR-23b-3p levels boosted RCOR1's expression. Moreover, the stimulatory impact of RCOR1 on prostate cancer cell development could be countered by elevating miR-23b-3p mimics.
Conclusion: In summary, our findings confirm that RCOR1 is indeed under the influence of miR-23, shedding light on the miR-23/RCOR1 pathway's role in prostate cancer development. This offers novel theoretical and experimental support for comprehending the underlying mechanisms of prostate cancer and for targeted therapeutic avenues.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology (IJCEP, ISSN 1936-2625) is a peer reviewed, open access online journal. It was founded in 2008 by an international group of academic pathologists and scientists who are devoted to the scientific exploration of human disease and the rapid dissemination of original data. Unlike most other open access online journals, IJCEP will keep all the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume and issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to keep our warm feelings towards an academic journal.
