Abstract
- Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to exert important effects on the initiation, progression and metastasis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). In this study, we aimed to explore the regulation role of miR-1271 on the development of GBM. We found that miR-1271 was a Bcl-2-targeting miRNA, and the levels of miR-1271was decreased in samples from patients with GBM, compared with those from corresponding normal tissue samples. On the other hand, the levels of miR-1271 were inversely related to the levels of Bcl-2, which have been significantly increased in GBM samples. The overall survival was poorer in patients with low levels of miR-1271, compared to those with high levels of miR-1271. In vitro, the chemo-resistant cell survival mediated with Bcl-2 was inhibited by overexpression of miR-1271 and was enhanced by depletion of miR-1271. Thus, the chemo-resistance of GBM cells may be promoted after suppressing miR-1271 through cell survival mediated with Bcl-2. The prognosis of patients with GBM receiving chemotherapy may be improved by overexpressing miR-1271 in cancerous cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
