MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short ~21-nt non-coding RNA molecules that have been shown to regulate a number of biological processes.
Previous reports have shown that overexpression of miR-128 in glioma cells inhibited cell proliferation. Literature also suggests
that miR-128 negatively regulates prostate cancer cell invasion. Here, we show that overexpression of hsa-miR-128, a brain-enriched
microRNA, induces apoptosis in HEK293T cells as elucidated by apoptosis assay, cell cycle changes, loss of mitochondrial membrane
potential and multicaspase assay. By in silico analysis, we identified a putative target site within the 3′ untranslated region
(UTR) of Bax, a proapoptotic member of the apoptosis pathway. We found that ectopic expression of hsa-miR-128 suppressed a
luciferase reporter containing the Bax-3′ UTR and reduced the levels of Bax in HEK293T cells. Taken together, our study demonstrates
that overexpression of hsa-miR-128 not only induces apoptosis in HEK293T cells but also is an endogenous regulator of Bax
protein. 相似文献
