Abstract

The aim of this study was to research the influences of miR-183-5p on the proliferation, invasion, and glycolysis of thyroid cancer (THCA) cells. Clinical specimens from 84 THCA patients were included. THCA cell lines (K1, SW1736, and TPC1) were cultured. siFOXO1, miR-183-5p mimic, or miR-183-5p inhibitors were transfected into THCA cells by Lipofectamine ™ 2000. qRT-PCR, western blot, and immunohistochemistry assays were used to detect miR-183-5p and FOXO1 expression. CCK-8 assay, colony formation, flow cytometry, Transwell, and wound healing experiment were utilized, respectively, to detect cell proliferation, colony formation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration. Glycolysis was evaluated by detecting glucose uptake, lactate production, ATP level, and glycolysis-related proteins expression. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay were employed to verify the target relationship between miR-183-5p and FOXO1. The effect of miR-183-5p on THCA cells growth in vivo was researched using nude mice. miR-183-5p was highly expressed in THCA tissues and cells, correlating with poor outcome. miR-183-5p up-regulation attenuated apoptosis, and accelerated proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion, and glycolysis of THCA cells. Opposite results were found by miR-183-5p down-regulation. FOXO1 was a target gene of miR-183-5p, where expression was directly inhibited by miR-183-5p. FOXO1 silencing reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-183-5p inhibitor on THCA cells malignant phenotype. miR-183-5p down-regulation inhibited THCA cells growth in vivo. miR-183-5p accelerates progression and glycolysis of THCA by targeting FOXO1. miR-183-5p was a novel target for THCA treatment.
