MiR-767-3p has been found to inhibit the expression of ASF1B, thus reducing melanoma tumorigenesis. This has potential implications for the treatment of melanoma.
Background: Melanoma, the type of skin cancer considered as most malignant, and known to be linked with a high incidence as well as high mortality rate. Although the dysregulation of ASF1B and miR-767-3p expression is involved in the progression of various cancers, their biological function in melanoma re-mains unclear.Methods: Real-time qPCR was the primary source for determining the levels of ASF1B and miR-767-3p in melanoma. For the validation of association among miR-767-3p and ASF1B, luciferase activity assay was used. Quantification of cell apoptosis, proliferation, migration and viability in melanoma cells were carried out by flow cytometry, BrdU, transwell assays, and CCK-8, respectively. Further evaluation of tumor growth was achieved by xenograft in vivo.Results: Results showed an increased expression of ASF1B while declined expression of miR-767-3p in melanoma. ASF1B knockdown repressed cell migration, viability, proliferation, and tumor growth whereas boosted apoptosis in A375 as well as in A875 melanoma cells. Moreover, miR-767-3p attenuated the migration and proliferation of melanoma cells and encouraged cell apoptosis by reducing ASF1B levels.Conclusion: In this study, miR-767-3p was shown to inhibit ASF1B which will attenuate melanoma tumorigenesis, and by this it can be a potential new effective biomarker for the treatment of melanoma.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
