In vivo and in vitro impact of miRNA-153 on the suppression of cell growth apoptosis through mTORC2 signaling pathway in breast cancer

Abstract Purpose To investigate the effects and mechanism of miRNA-153 on breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Material and methods The cells and mice were divided into five groups: miRNA-153 mimic, miRNA-153 NC, miRNA-153 inhibitor, miRNA-153 inhibitor-NC, and blank control groups. The real-time PCR and western blot were used to detect the rictor expression regulated by miRNA-153. The western blot was used to explore the expression levels of p-Akt Ser473, p-SGK1 Ser422, and p-FOXO1 Thr24 regulated by miRNA-153. The H&E stain was used to detect the morphology and vitality of tumor cells. Flow cytometry analysis or TUNEL detection was used to evaluate the apoptosis of tumor cells. Results MiRNA-153 was significantly reduced in breast cancer cell lines. The real-time PCR and western blot assay suggested that the miRNA-153 downregulation of rictor expression, which was correlated with the antitumor effects both in vitro and in vivo. The western blot assay also showed that the expression levels of p-Akt Ser473, p-SGK1 Ser422, and p-FOXO1 Thr24 were largely reduced in miRNA-153 treated group, which indicated that miRNA-153 inhibited breast cancer growth by regulation of mTORC2 signaling pathway. The H&E stain demonstrated that the morphology and vitality of tumor cells in tumor tissues were influenced in miRNA-153 mimic treated group. The TUNEL detection also showed a great quantity of apoptotic cells in the miRNA-153 mimic group. Conclusions All these results uncovering that the miRNA-153 inhibited breast cancer growth via regulation of mTORC2 signaling pathway, which provided breast cancer treatment a novel direction.
