Abstract

Objective To investigate the serum level of microRNA-486-3p (miR-486-3p) and its effects on proliferation and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Methods Twenty-one patients with pancreatic cancer and twenty healthy controls were enrolled. Real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was used to detect the serum miR-486-3p. The effects of miR-486-3p on pancreatic cancer cells proliferation and apoptosis were respectively examined by cell counting kit 8(CCK8) assay and flow cytometry assay. Results Compared with healthy controls,serum level of miR-486-3p was significantly up-regulated in patients with pancreatic cancer (50.73±0.82 vs 34.80±0.74, P<0.05); The proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells were significantly up-regulated (SW1990: 2.77±0.07 vs 2.05±0.06, P<0.05; PANC-1: 2.81±0.04 vs1.89±0.04, P<0.05) and the apoptosis rates were suppressed by forced expression of miR-486-3p(24.1%±1.14% vs 45.9%±1.11%, P<0.05; 21.9%±0.25% vs 42.3%±1.62%, P<0.05), while inhibition of miR-486-3p significantly down-regulated the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells(SW1990: 1.71±0.03 vs 2.07±0.05, P<0.05; PANC-1: 1.61±0.03 vs 2.20±0.07, P<0.05). Conclusions The serum miR-486-3p were significantly up-regulated in patients with pancreatic cancer; MiR-486-3p may function as a tumor-promoter by promoting cell proliferation and suppressing apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells.
