Purpose: The current study was intended to research the functional role and regulatory mechanism of microRNA-96-5p in the progression of cervical cancer. Methods: MicroRNA-96-5p expression in cervical cancer tissues was assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The association between microRNA-96-5p expression and clinicopathological features of patients with cervical cancer was analyzed. MTT, flow cytometry, wound healing, and transwell assay were performed to evaluate the viability, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of Hela and SiHa cells. Targetscan, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay, and RNA pull-down analysis were constructed to evaluate the target relationship between microRNA-96-5p and secreted frizzled-related protein 4. Results: MicroRNA-96-5p was overexpressed in cervical cancer tissues, and microRNA-96-5p expression was markedly associated with the clinical stage and lymph node metastasis of patients with cervical cancer. Overexpressed microRNA-96-5p facilitated the viability, migration, invasion, and inhibited the apoptosis of Hela and SiHa cells, whereas suppression of microRNA-96-5p exerted the opposite trend. Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 was proved to be a target of microRNA-96-5p. Silencing of secreted frizzled-related protein 4 eliminated the anti-tumor effect of microRNA-96-5p on cervical cancer cells. Conclusions: MicroRNA-96-5p facilitated the viability, migration, and invasion and inhibited the apoptosis of cervical cancer cells via negatively regulating secreted frizzled-related protein 4.

Abstract Background Cervical cancer is a type of the most common gynecology tumor in women of the whole world. Accumulating data have shown that icariin (ICA), a natural compound, has anti-cancer activity in different cancers, including cervical cancer. The study aimed to reveal the antitumor effects and the possible underlying mechanism of ICA in U14 tumor-bearing mice and SiHa cells. Methods The antitumor effects of ICA were investigated in vivo and in vitro. The expression of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways were evaluated. Results We found that ICA significantly suppressed tumor tissue growth and SiHa cells viability in a dose-dependent manner. Also, ICA enhanced the anti-tumor humoral immunity in vivo. Moreover, ICA significantly improved the composition of the microbiota in mice models. Additionally, the results clarified that ICA significantly inhibited the migration, invasion capacity, and expression levels of TGF-β1, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17A, IL-10 in SiHa cells. Meanwhile, ICA was revealed to promote the apoptosis of cervical cancer cells by down-regulating Ki67, survivin, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and up-regulating P16, P53, Bax levels in vivo and in vitro. For the part of mechanism exploration, we showed that ICA inhibits the inflammation, proliferation, migration, and invasion, as well as promotes apoptosis and immunity in cervical cancer through impairment of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB and Wnt/β-catenin pathways. Conclusions Taken together, ICA could be a potential supplementary agent for cervical cancer treatment.

Human continuous bone marrow cultures were established from intraoperative marrow specimens and infected with amphotropic murine leukemia virus (Am-MuLV) pseudotypes of Kirsten or Harvey murine sarcoma virus, and the biologic effects were compared with mouse continuous bone marrow cultures. Cultures were tested for production of total nonadherent granulocytes and granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (GM-CFUc); virus replication by supernatant reverse transcriptase activity; percentage of adherent and nonadherent cells and GM-CFUc that released virus by infectious center assay; and for synthesis of Harvey ras p21 protein. High-efficiency, stable Am-MuLV infection of over 90% of human marrow-culture nonadherent and adherent cells and both seven- and 14-day GM-CFUc were detected as Kirsten or Harvey pseudotype virus release by infectious center assay. Synthesis of Harvey ras p21 was detected in the adherent and nonadherent cell populations of human as well as mouse continuous marrow cultures infected with Kirsten or Harvey pseudotype virus. In contrast to data with mouse cultures, cumulative production of GM-CFUc and differentiated granulocytes in human cultures was not detectably altered by Harvey or Kirsten virus infection, and all cultures ceased to produce hematopoietic cells by 20 weeks. Of 54 virus-infected cultures in ten separate experiments, 13 produced a second peak of nonadherent cells (greater than 10(5) per flask) after 20 weeks, significantly more frequently than did control uninfected cultures (one of 32). When subcultured, these harvests produced permanent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed pre-B cell lines that released the original inoculating pseudotype virus. Thus, Am- MuLV is a potentially valuable vector for inserting genetic sequences by recombinant techniques into human hematopoietic and stromal cells in culture; however, activation of EBV may be a significant complication.
