MiR-195-3p is significantly down-regulated in NPC tissues and cells, and its overexpression can inhibit cell growth, decrease radioresistance, promote apoptosis, and impede cell cycle progression. It targets and regulates CDK1, impacting the radiosensitivity of NPC cells.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are revealed to participate in the progression of multiple malignancies, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This work is intended to decipher the function of microRNA-195-3p (miR-195-3p) in regulating the radiosensitivity of NPC cells and its mechanism. MiR-195-3p and cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) expressions were detected in NPC tissues and cells using qRT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Moreover, radiation-resistant cell lines were induced by continuous irradiation with different doses. Furthermore, the CCK-8 experiment, colony formation assay and flow cytometry were utilized to examine the growth, apoptosis and cell cycle of radioresistant cells. Bioinformatics prediction and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay were applied to prove the targeting relationship between miR-195-3p and CDK1 mRNA 3MODIFIER LETTER PRIMEUTR. The data showed that miR-195-3p was remarkably down-modulated in NPC tissues and was associated with increased tumor grade, lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of the patients. MiR-195-3p expression was significantly down-modulated in radiation-resistant NPC tissues and NPC cell lines relative to radiation-sensitive NPC tissues and human nasopharyngeal epithelial cells, while CDK1 expression was notably up-modulated. MiR-195-3p overexpression inhibited the growth of NPC cells, decreased radioresistance, promoted apoptosis, and impeded the cell cycle progression. CDK1 was a target gene of miR-195-3p, and CDK1 overexpression counteracted the effects of miR-195-3p on NPC cell growth, apoptosis, cell cycle progression and radiosensitivity. In summary, miR-195-3p improves the radiosensitivity of NPC cells by targeting and regulating CDK1.
