Downregulation of miR-484 is associated with poor prognosis and tumor progression of gastric cancer

BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers leading to high cancer mortality. MicroRNA-484 (miR-484) has been evaluated as a biomarker for various types of cancers. The subject of this study is to investigate the functional role of miR-484 in gastric cancer. METHODS: The expression...

description BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers leading to high cancer mortality. MicroRNA-484 (miR-484) has been evaluated as a biomarker for various types of cancers. The subject of this study is to investigate the functional role of miR-484 in gastric cancer. METHODS: The expression of miR-484 in gastric cancer was analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay. Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox regression analyses were employed to explore the prognostic significance of miR-484 in gastric cancer. The functional role of miR-484 in gastric cancer was determined by CCK-8 and Transwell assays. RESULTS: The results showed that miR-484 was significantly downregulated in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines. The downregulation of miR-484 was closely related to differentiation, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, and poor prognosis. Cox regression analyses demonstrated that miR-484 was an independent prognosis indicator for gastric cancer patients. Additionally, the downregulation of miR-484 enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in gastric cancer cells. CONCLUSION: These data demonstrated that miR-484 can serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for gastric cancer and it may be involved in the progression of gastric cancer.
