The effect of miR-138 on the proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells through the NF-κB/VEGF signaling pathway

The analyze the effect of miR-138 on the proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells through the NF-κB/VEGF signaling pathway is the Objective of this experiment. For this aim, the endometrial stem breast cancer cell line MCF-7 was cultured in vitro, and the overexpression mimic miR-138 mimics and the inhibitor anti-miR-138 were transfected into the endometrial stem breast cancer cell line MCF-7, which was set to overexpress miR-138 group and interfere with miR-138, and set up negative control of overexpression and negative control of inhibitor. Observe the cell proliferation and apoptosis ability of each group, and the changes in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β, 6, 18 (IL-1β, IL-6, IL- 18) levels, and compare the Bax of each group, NF-κB, VEGF protein expression level. Results showed that the proliferation ability of the miR-138 overexpression group was significantly lower than that of the miR-138 overexpression control group (P
