[0027] We collected blood samples from chromium-exposed people and normal people, and detected the expression levels of miR-199a, IL-8, miR-218, HK2, and LDHA in samples from each patient by qRT-PCR. By comparing the expression levels of blood samples from normal people, it was found that the expression levels of miR-199a and miR-218 were significantly reduced in the blood samples of the chromium-exposed population ( figure 1 A-B), the expression levels of IL-8, HK2 and LDHA in the blood samples of the chromium-exposed population were significantly increased ( figure 2 A-C). The above results indicated that miR-199a, IL-8, miR-218, HK2 and LDHA played an important regulatory role in the carcinogenesis of chromium exposure.

[0029] Bronchial epithelial cells are the main cells responsible for Cr(VI) in respiratory organs. We used the immortalized cell line BEAS-2B (B2B) derived from human bronchial epithelium to perform chromium-induced transformation experiments. After treatment with 1.0 μM sodium chromate for 6 months, malignantly transformed cells (Cr-T) were induced to study the molecular mechanism of chronic Cr(VI) exposure carcinogenesis. The expression levels of miR-199a, IL-8, miR-218, HK2 and LDHA in B2B and Cr-T cells were detected by qRT-PCR. The results showed that compared with B2B cells, the expression of miR-199a and miR-218 was significantly lower in Cr-T cells ( image 3 A-B), the expression levels of IL-8, HK2 and LDHA were significantly increased in Cr-T cells ( image 3 C-D).

[0031] In order to further study the downstream signaling pathways in cell lines, we detected the protein expression levels of IL-8, HK2 and LDHA and the correlation of downstream signaling pathways in miR-199a / miR-218 and miR-NC stable expression cell lines by western blot experiments protein. Cells with good growth status and confluence of 80%-95% were selected to extract protein, and the protein concentration was determined by BCA kit, and samples were prepared for electrophoresis. In the cell line overexpressing miR-199a, the expression level of IL-8 was significantly decreased, and the protein expression level of HIF-1α was also significantly decreased ( Figure 4 A-B).
[0032] To detect the effect of miR-199a on angiogenesis, fertilized eggs were cultured at 37°C, Cr-T / miR-NC and Cr-T / miR-199a cells were trypsinized and counted in serum-free medium and resuspended. Matrigel was mixed with cell suspension at a ratio of 1:1 and implanted into the chorioallantoic membra...
