Objective:To construct the lentiviral vector which can over-expression miR-508-Sp and explore its targeted effects on MAPK1/ERK signaling pathways. Methods: Based on chemical technology to synthetic stem-loop structure RNA of miR-508-Sp, and cloned it into the linearized pSicoR plasmid which was digested by restriction enzyme and sequenced, the positive recombinants were transfected into HEK-293T cells; To validate the targeted regulatory relationship between miR-508-Sp and MAPK1 3'-UTR through the relative luciferase activity, Western blot and real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) test. Results: The PCR, restriction enzyme digestion analysis and DNA sequencing demonstrated that the recombinant plasmids of pSicoR-miR-508-Sp and Report-MAPK1 3'-UTR were constructed successfully, and confirmed that the over-expression of miR-508-5p suppressed the expression level of MAPK1 protein and mRNA significantly( P 〈0.05 ) ; suppression of miR-508-Sp expression increased the expression level of MAPK1 protein and mR- NA significantly( P 〈 0.05 ). Conclusion: The recombinant plasmid of pSicoR-miR-508-5p has been constructed successfully, demon- strating that miR-508-5p can directly target on the gene expression of MAPK1. It is negatively regulated at the post-transcriptional level, construct the foundation of miRNA for regnlation of the further research on signaling pathways and cell cycle.
