摘要
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs (18-25 nucleotides) which post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression by negatively regulating the stability or translational efficiency of their target mRNAs. This study aimed to determine the function of miR-154-5p in prostate cancer (PCa) cells and identify the novel molecular targets regulated by miR-154-5p.The effects of forced miR-154-5p expression or E2F transcription factor 5 (E2F5) knockdown on PCa cells were evaluated by cell proliferation, flow cytometry, cell migration and invasion assays as well as by Western blot analysis. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify the precise target of miR-154-5p.The forced expression of miR-154-5p or E2F5 knockdown significantly restrained cell growth, as well as the migratory and invasive capabilities. Such expression also induced G1 cell cycle arrest of PCa cells in vitro. Hence, E2F5 is a direct target gene of miR-154-5p.miR-154-5p may play an important role as an inhibitor of proliferation, migration and invasion of PCa by targeting E2F5 in PCa cell lines.
