Objective Our previous study had shown that there was overexpression of miR -30a -5p in malignant glionka cell lines. In the present study, we aim to investigate the effect of knocking- down miR-30a -5p on the biological characteristics of U87 glioblastoma cells. Method The U87 cells were divided into three groups: control cells,cells transfected with scramble oligonucleotides and cells transfected with miR-30a-5p inhibitors(miR -30a- 5p I). Oligonucleotides mediated by lipofectmnine were transfected to U87 cells. Real -time PCR was conducted to detect the expression of miR- 30a- 5p in transfected cells. The cell proliferation was determined by 3 - (4,5 - Dimethylthiazol - 2 - yl) - 2,5 - diphenyltetrazolium bromide ( MtT ) assay and flow cytometry. The cell invasion was evaluated by Transwell assay and cell apoptosis was detected with Annexin V staining. Moreover, the relevant molecules regulating proliferation, invasion, cell cycle progression and apoptosis were examined by Western blot analysis. Results The expression of miR - 30a - 5p in the cells transfected with miR - 30a - 5p I was significantly reduced. The cell proliferation activity of U87 cell was inhibited. The cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase, cell invasive ability was attenuated and apoptotic cells were increased in cells transfected with miR - 30a - 5pI as compared to those of the cells transfected with scrambled siRNA and control cells. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), matrix metallopeptidase 9 ( MMP - 9) and Cyclin D1 were downregulated while the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinasel (TIMP - 1) and p53 were upregulated. Condusions Transfection of miR -30a -Sp I into glioma cells could inhibit the proliferation activity and invasive ability of U87 cell and induce cell apoptosis, miR- 30a- 5p is a potential target of gene therapy for glioma.
