Abstract:Objective: To elucidate the function of miR-193a in HCC. Methods: The expression levels of miR-193a and Wilms' tumor-1 (WT1) were detected by quantitative real Time-polymerase chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) assay. In addition, miR-193a expression was also investigated in MHCC97H,HCCLM3,Huh7 and LO2 cell lines. Moreover, the HCC proliferation was examined through cell counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay after miR-193a overexpression or inhibition. Tumor growth of HCC was observed via xenograft tumor formation assay. The relationship between miR-193a and WT1 was verified by the dual-Luciferase assay. Results: Downregulation of miR-193a whereas upregulation of WT1 were identified in HCC, which predicted a worse prognosis in HCC patients. Meanwhile, miR-193a was significantly decreased in LO2 cell lines compared with MHCC97H,HCCLM3,Huh7 cell lines. Low miR-193a expression HCC patients showed severer TMN stage and presence of lymph node metastasis. Furthermore, it was found that miR-193a mimic suppressed cell proliferation by inhibiting WT1. miR-193a also inhibited tumor growth of HCC. Conclusion: miR-193a suppressed tumorigenesis of HCC by targeting WT1.
