Abstract
To investigate the molecular mechanism of miR-145-5p in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) tissues and cells. The tissues from patients with DLBCL were collected for RT-qPCR or immunohistochemistry. Cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, the relationship between miR-145-5p and S1PR1, and proteins related pathway were detected using CCK-8, BrdU staining, Transwell assay, dual luciferase report assay, and western blotting, respectively. The results showed that miR-145-5p was down-regulated and positively correlated with the survival of DLBCL patients. Overexpression of miR-145-5p inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in cell model. miR-145-5p directly targeted S1PR1. miR-145-5p down-regulated S1PR1, p-AKT/AKT, and p-STAT3 expression. The reduction of miR-145-5p-induced cell movement was reversed by S1PR1 overexpression. Moreover, S1PR1-induced addition of cell growth was clearly alleviated in LY294002 or S3I-201 treated cells. S1PR1 was up-regulated in the tissues of DLBCL patients. In conclusion, miR-145-5p regulated DLBCL cell growth and movement through suppressing S1PR1/STAT3/AKT pathway.
