摘要
It is well known that microRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial regulatory factors in tumorigenesis, as tumor suppressors or cancer-promoting factors. However, the study of endometrial carcinoma relevance in miR-522 is rare, indicating an undefined molecular mechanism for its role. Therefore, we performed this study to examine the role of miR-522 on the biological behaviors of endometrial carcinoma. In this work, we found that miR-522 was highly expressed in endometrial carcinoma and negatively regulated monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) expression. They also have the opposite effect on prognosis of endometrial carcinoma patients. More importantly, miR-522 could decreased MAOB expression by binding to MAOB with a putative site, thereby promoting cell proliferation, migration, and invasion through in vitro functional analyses, including MTT assay, wound-healing and transwell invasion experiments. Upregulation of MAOB rescued the impacts of miR-522 mimic on cell behaviors. In conclusion, our observations demonstrated that miR-522 accelerated the progression of endometrial carcinoma by inhibiting MAOB, which might lead to a novel therapeutic therapy for endometrial carcinoma.
