Abstract:To explore the effectofmiRNA-101 on Cisplatin sensitivity ofchemo-resistantepithelial ovarian cancerSKOV3/DDP cellsand therelated mechanism.M ethodsIn thisstudy,theexpression ofmiRNA-101 in SKOV3/DDP cells was up-regulated by transfection.Meanwhile,RT-PCR assay was applied to detect the expressionsofmiRNA-101 mRNA and BDNF mRNA,and CCK-8 kitwasused tomeasure the Cisplatin sensitivity and proliferative ability ofSKOV3/DDP cells.In addition,the apoptosis of SKOV3/DDP cells was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PIflow cytometry.ResultsCompared with the controlgroup,the expression ofmiRNA-101 and the apoptosis rate ofmiRNA -101 in the transfected group increased significantly [(1.000 ± 0.022)vs (5.380 ±0.246), < 0.05;(11.020± 0.685)% vs(26.158 ± 1.278)% , < 0.05].The expression ofBDNF mRNA decreasedsignificantly[(1.000 ± 0.042)vs(0.389 ± 0.055), < 0.05],and the Cisplatin IC50 and the proliferative ability of SKOV3/DDP cells were obviously decreased aftertransfection [(57.276 ± 1.717)vs(33.176 ±2.465), < 0.05;(1.776 ±0.030)vs(1.642 ± 0.252), < 0.05].Conclusions miRNA-101 could effectively enhance the Cisplatin sensitivityand promotetheapoptosisofSKOV3/DDP cells.
