The methylation status of CpG islands was involved in the regulation of miR-1-3p expression. miR-1-3p inhibited the bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by directly targeting the 3'-UTR of glutaminase.
MiR-1-3p up-regulates SFRP1 expression in bladder cancer cells, and the over-expression of miR-1-3p can suppress the proliferation, invasion and migration ability of bladder cancer cells.
This study provides evidence for hsa-miR-1 to play tumor suppressive roles via downregulating lncRNA UCA1 in bladder cancer, which may have potential therapeutic significance.
Our data indicate that LASP1 may have an oncogenic function and that it might be regulated by miR-1, miR-133a, and miR-218, which may function as tumor suppressive miRNAs in BC.
In this study, we focused on splicing factor serine/arginine-rich 9 (SRSF9/SRp30c) on the basis of our previous genome-wide gene expression analysis using miR-1-transfected BC cell lines because putative target sites of miR-1 are existed in 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of SRSF9 mRNA.
