Embodiment 1
[0142] Example 1, Pfn1 3'UTR contains the target site of conserved miR-320a
[0143] To study the role of miR-320a in tumorigenesis, the inventors first used a recently reported biochemical approach (see Karginov FV et al. A biochemical approach to identifying microRNA targets. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2007; 104(49): 19291-6) identified the target gene of miR-320a. The main principle of this method is to co-immunoprecipitate the miRNA and its target gene mRNA in RISC with the antibody against Ago2, the core component of RISC, The species of target genes of the corresponding miRNAs are then identified. As a result, the present inventors identified Pfn1 as a candidate target gene of miR-320a.
[0144] Then, the inventors used miRanda (http: / / www.microrna.org / microrna / home.do), TargetScan (http: / / www.targetscan.org / ) and PicTar (http: / / www.pictar.org / ) and other miRNA target gene prediction software also predicted that Pfn...
Embodiment 2
[0146] Example 2, Pfn1 protein expression level and miR-320a expression level are negatively correlated
[0147] First, the inventors detected the relationship between miR-320a and Pfn1 expression in some cell lines, such as figure 2 a-d. In lung cancer cell lines A549 and 95-D, the expression level of Pfn1 mRNA in 95-D cells was 5-fold higher than that in A549, while the level of Pfn1 protein in 95-D cells was lower than that in A549, which indicated that the protein level of Pfn1 in 95-D The translation process may be blocked. In comparison, the expression level of miR-320a in 95-D cells was 6-fold higher than that in A549 cells. Similar results were also observed in prostate cells PC-3 and DU-145. All in all, a negative correlation between the protein expression level of Pfn1 and the expression level of miR-320a can be observed in these cells tested.
[0148] These results above suggest that miR-320a negatively regulates the protein expression of Pfn1 at the post-trans...
Embodiment 3
[0149] Example 3, MiR-320a can act on the 3'UTR of Pfn1 mRNA to inhibit the expression of Pfn1
[0150] In order to further confirm that miR-320a can directly target and regulate Pfn1, the inventors then detected whether miR-320a can bind to the 3'UTR of Pfn1 mRNA and prevent protein translation. For this reason, the inventor has constructed the following reporter gene carrier: the 3'UTR of the full-length Pfn1 of people is cloned into the 3'UTR region of the luciferase reporter gene (Wt UTR, image 3 a), while also constructing a control vector, that is, a vector with 3 nucleotide mutations in the seed region of the target site of miR-320a (Mut UTR, image 3 a) To remove the binding of miR-320a to this site.
[0151] The above-mentioned vectors were co-transfected with miR-320a or control miRNA into 293T cells, or on this basis, antisense nucleic acid of miR-320a (anti-miR-320a) or control antisense nucleic acid (Controlanti-miR) was transfected to To inhibit the function of ...
