- Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the regulation mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) plasmocytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) in ovarian cancer (OC). Methods: The levels of PVT1, microRNA (miR)-543, serpin peptidase inhibitor-clade I (neuroserpin)-member 1 (SERPINI1) in OC tissues and OVCAR-3, A2780, TOV-112D of OC cell lines were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) andWestern Blot (WB). Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis and the regulatory relationship between genes and target genes were analyzed by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), Transwell, flow cytometry and dual luciferase reporter (DLR). The OC patients were followed up for 5 years to analyze the relationship between PVT1 and 5-year overall survival (OS). Results: In contrast with miR-543, PVT1 and SERPINI1 were highly expressed in OC tissues and cell lines, and high levels of PVT1 were significantly associated with lower 5-year OS of patients. Down-regulating PVT1 not only inhibited the malignant proliferation, migration and invasion of OC cells, but promoted cell apoptosis. PVT1 regulated miR-543 in a targeted manner, and its overexpression could attenuate the anticancer effect of miR-543 on OC cells. In addition, miR-543 also directly targeted SERPINI1, and miR-543 knockdown weakened the inhibitory effect of down-regulated SERPINI1 on OC progression. Furthermore, we found that PVT1 acted as a competitive endogenous RNA to sponge miR-543, thereby regulating the expression of SERPINI1. Conclusion: PVT1 can mediate the molecular mechanism of OC by miR-543/SERPINI1 axis regulatory network, which is a new therapeutic direction for OC.
