Abstract
- Objective: Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor rooting in the gastric mucosal epithelium, ranking the first among various malignant tumors. Therefore, the influence of microRNA-128-3p (miR-128-3p) by regulation of Tuftelin1 (TUFT1) on GC cells was investigated. Methods: The expression levels of miR-128-3p and TUFT1 in GC tissues and cells were detected. The correlation between miR-128-3p expression and overall survival of GC patients was analyzed. Human GC cells MGC803 were transfected with miR-128-3p or TUFT1-related oligonucleotides to figure their roles in viability, apoptosis, invasion, as well as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The relationship between miR-128-3p and TUFT1 was validated. Results: miR-128-3p expression was low and TUFT1 expression was high in GC tissues. miR-128-3p expression was positively correlated with the overall survival of patients with GC. miR-128-3p targeted TUFT1. Up-regulated miR-128-3p or suppressed TUFT1 repressed viability, invasion, and EMT, and accelerated apoptosis of GC cells. Overexpressed TUFT1 reduced miR-128-3p-mediated growth inhibition of GC cells. Conclusion: The study stresses that miR-128-3p can inhibit TUFT1 expression, thereby repressing GC cell activities.
