The study found that miR-182-5p is upregulated in LUAD and promotes cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by targeting STARD13. STARD13 is downregulated in LUAD and shows an inverse correlation with miR-182-5p, playing a crucial role in inhibiting LUAD cells.
Lung cancer as one of the commonest invasive malignancies is featured by high morbidity and mortality, wherein lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most prevalent subtype. Accumulating evidence exhibited that microRNAs are involved in LUAD occurrence and progression. In this study, miR-182-5p was observed to increase in both LUAD tissue and cell lines. Overexpression of miR-182-5p could prominently facilitate cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in LUAD. Through bioinformatics analysis, STARD13 was theorized as the target gene of miR-182-5p, which was lowly expressed in LUAD. Further molecular experiments manifested that miR-182-5p bound to the 3 '-untranslated region of STARD13, and there was an inverse correlation between STARD13 and miR-182-5p in LUAD. Rescue experiments demonstrated that silencing STARD13 conspicuously restored the inhibitory effect of decreased miR-182-5p on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in LUAD. Together, our findings revealed novel roles of the miR-182-5p/STARD13 axis in LUAD progression.
