MicroRNA-129-1-3p Represses the Progression of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer by Targeting the GRIN2D Gene

The aberrant expression of miRNA is strongly linked to numerous stages of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) progression, and it plays an indispensable role in the process from tumor onset and progress to invasion and metastasis. In this study, we first transfected miR-129-1-3p mimics and inhibitor into MDA-MB-231 TNBC cells, respectively. Then, we assessed the pathological role of miR-129-1-3p in MDA-MB-231 cells. The results showed that miR-129-1-3p were successfully inserted into MDA-MB-231 cells. Besides, miR-129-1-3p could distinctively repress the growth, migration along with infiltration of MDA-MB-231 cells, which might be related to the inhibition of GRIN2D expression. Our results indicate that miR-129-1-3p was illustrated to serve as a tumor repressor via targeting GRIN2D in TNBC cells and highlight that the restoration of miR-129-1-3p might be a new treatment target for TNBC.
