cell line NE1 by q RT-PCR.2.Transfection plasmids mi R-193a-5p mimics and mi R-193a-5p inhibitor were used to construct over-/low-expressing mi R-193a-5p esophageal cancer cell lines,respectively,and the transfection efficiency was detected by q RT-PCR.3.The effects of low/overexpressed mi R-193a-5p on the proliferation,migration,invasion,and cell cycle of esophageal cancer cells were measured using MTS and clone formation experiments,scratch experiments,Transwell chamber invasion experiments,and flow cytometry.4.The expression level of mi R-193a-5p detected by q RT-PCR in low zinc cultured esophageal cancer cell lines.5.After mi R-193a-5p expression was down/up-regulated,q RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect changes in ZIP5 m RNA and protein expression levels.6.Using immunoluciferase experiments to verify the relationship between mi R-193a-5p and ZIP5.7.q RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the effects of low/ overexpressed mi R-193a-5p on the expression of EMT-associated molecules(E-cadherin,N-cadherin,and Vimentin)in esophageal cancer cells.Results:1.The relative expression of mi R-193a-5p in six esophageal cancer cell lines were: Eca109(0.46 ± 0.03),KYSE150(0.31 ± 0.02),KYSE170(0.34 ± 0.02),KYSE9706(0.46 ± 0.03),and TE1(0.37 ± 0.03)were lower than NE1(0.63 ± 0.03)in immortalized esophageal epithelial cells,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).2.q RT-PCR detection of low/over-expressed mi R-193a-5p esophageal cancer cells showed that the relative expression of mi R-193a-5p in the transfection group was significantly lower / higher than that in the NC group and the normal culture untreated group.Significance(P<0.05).3.Effect of down/over-expressed mi R-193a-5p on the proliferation of esophageal cancer cells: MTS and clone formation experiments showed that low expression of mi R-193a-5p significantly promoted the in vitro proliferation of KYSE150 and KYSE170(P<0.05);Expression of mi R-193a-5p significantly inhibited the proliferation of Eca109 and KYSE9706 in vitro(P<0.05).4.Effect of down/over-expressed mi R-193a-5p on the migration ability of esophageal cancer cells: The results of scratch experiments showed that the low expression of mi R-193a-5p gene significantly promoted the migration ability of esophageal cancer cell lines Eca109 and KYSE9706(P<0.05);Overexpression of mi R-193a-5p gene significantly inhibited the migration ability of esophageal cancer cell lines KYSE150 and KYSE170(P<0.05).5.Effect of down/over-expressed mi R-193a-5p on the invasion ability of esophageal cancer cells: Transwell chamber invasion experiments showed that low expression of mi R-193a-5p can promote the invasion ability of esophageal cancer cell lines Eca109 and KYSE9706(P<0.05);Overexpression of mi R-193a-5p can inhibit the invasion ability of esophageal cancer cell lines KYSE150 and KYSE170 in vitro(P <0.05).6.Effects of down/over-expressed mi R-193a-5p on the esophageal cancer cell cycle: Flow cytometry results show that down-regulating the mi R-193a-5p gene can promote cell division at G0 / G1 and G2 / M phases and block S Phase division affects the cell cycle of esophageal cancer cell lines Eca109 and KYSE9706(P<0.05).Overexpression of mi R-193a-5p gene can affect the cell cycle of esophageal cancer cell lines KYSE150 and KYSE170 by inducing cell arrest in G0 / G1 phase and shortening S phase(P<0.05).7.In low zinc cultured esophageal cancer cell lines,q RT-PCR detection of mi R-193a-5p expression level was found to be within a certain range.As TPEN concentration increased,mi R-193a-5p expression level significantly decreased.8.RT-PCR and Western blot results showed that: low expression of mi R-193a-5p gene can promote the expression level of ZIP5 m RNA and protein;high expression of mi R-193a-5p gene can inhibit the expression level of ZIP5 m RNA and protein.9.Immunoluciferase experiments show that mi R-193a-5p directly binds to ZIP5 and regulates its expression.10.RT-PCR and Western blot results showed that overexpression of mi R-193a-5p gene can inhibit the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin m RNA and protein,and promote the expression of E-cadherin m RNA and protein(P <0.05);low expression of mi R-193a-5p gene can promote the expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin m RNA and protein,and inhibit the expression of E-cadherin m RNA and protein(P<0.05).Conclusions:1.The expression level of mi R-193a-5p in esophageal cancer tissues and cell lines was significantly down-regulated,and its expression level was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis and TNM staging in patients with esophageal cancer.2.mi R-193a-5p has a strong ability to diagnose esophageal cancer,and its expression level has no significant correlation with the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer.3.Abnormal expression of mi R-193a-5p significantly affects esophageal cancer cell proliferation,invasion and migration ability,and cell cycle,and it may play tumor suppressor role in EC.4.mi R-193a-5p and low Zn cultured esophageal cancer cells and immunoluciferase experiments suggest that mi R-193a-5p may be related to Zn ions,and ZIP5 is a direct target of mi R-193a-5p.5.The expression level of mi R-193a-5p can significantly affect the expression of EMT-related molecules(E-cadherin,N-cadherin,and Vimentin)and may affect the development of esophageal cancer by targeting ZIP5 to regulate the EMT process under low zinc conditions. |
