• Resumen

  • Purpose Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignant tumors for women. The role and potential mechanisms of long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lncRNA PVT1) were explored in BC cell migration and invasion.

    Methods PVT1, miR-148a-3p and Rho‑associated, coiled‑coil containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK1) mRNA expressions were detected using real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The ROCK1 protein expression was detected by Western blotting. The relationship of PVT1, miR-148a-3p and ROCK1 was analyzed by Dual Luciferase activity, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and Spearman correlation analysis. Cell invasion and migration were detected by Transwell assay.

    Results Upregulation of PVT1 and ROCK1, and downregulation of miR-148a-3p were observed in BC tissues and cell lines. According to the analysis of Dual Luciferase activity, RIP and Spearman correlation analysis, miR-148a-3p directly binds to PVT1, and ROCK1 is a target of miR-148a-3p. In addition, PVT1 regulated the cells migration and invasion by regulating miR-148a-3p and ROCK1 expression.

    Conclusion These data demonstrated that PVT1 was upregulated and facilitated to the cell migration and invasion of BC by the regulation of miR-148a-3p and ROCK1, indicating that PVT1 may be a potential biomarker of BC diagnosis and treatment.
