Abstract

Background

MicroRNA is essential for the malignant progression of human gastric cancer (GC), which is a leading cause of cancer deaths. However, the mechanism is still not so clear.

Aims

In our present research, we investigated the effect of miR-9-5p in GC.

Methods

We detected miR-9-5p expression in human gastric epithelial cell (GES-1) and GC cells (AGS, BGC-823, MKN-45, and MGC-803), plasma of normal or GC patients, as well as orthotopic xenograft mouse models by real-time PCR. The migration ability was detected by Transwell assays after miR-9-5p mimic or inhibitor transfection in GC cells.

Results

Our results showed that miR-9-5p expression in GC cells and plasma was significantly decreased. miR-9-5p inhibited migration of GC cells by regulating TNFAIP8L3 directly. Low expression of miR-9-5p in GC patients hardly suppressed the migration mediated by TNFAIP8L3.

Conclusions

miR-9-5p, as a potential tumor suppressor gene, is closely related to the malignant progression of GC. Exploring the regulation between miR-9-5p and TNFAIP8L3 may provide a novel strategy for GC treatment.
