Abstract:Objective To explore the role of miR-501 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with gefitinib resistance and its underlying mechanism. Methods The expression of miR-501 in NSCLC with gefitinib resistance serum and PC9/GR were evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The effect of miR-501 on the malignant phenotype of PC9/GR was detected by CCK-8, scratch test and Transwell test. The online database was used to predict the potential target of miR-501 and to verify its specific role in PC9/GR. Results Compared with the healthy control people and the normal lung epithelial cell lines, the expression level of miR-501 in gefitini-resistant NSCLC patients serum and PC9/GR were increased, and the differences were highly statistically significant (P < 0.01). Compared with the mimics NC, the proliferation, migration and invasion capacity of PC9/GR in the miR-501 mimics were increased, and the differences were highly statistically significant (P < 0.01). The luciferase reporter assay confirmed that BLID was a direct target for miR-501. Compared with the miR-501 mimics+pcDNA3.1, the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC9/GR in the miR-501 mimics+ pcdna3.1-blid were decreased, and the differences were highly statistically significant (P < 0.01). Conclusion The upregulation of miR-501 promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion of geffitini-resistant NSCLC by inhibiting BLID. Therefore, miR-501 is a potential target for gefitinib-resistant NSCLC.
