摘要
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) leads to secondary vision loss following cataract surgery. TGF-beta 2 and miRNA play important roles in PCO. The aim of this study was to investigate the reciprocal crosstalk between miR-30a and TGF-beta 2/Smad2 during PCO progression. The expressions of and relationship between miR-30a and Smad2 were detected by RT-qPCR. Migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were used to evaluate the functions of miR-30a and TGF-beta 2/Smad2. We found that miR-30a was downregulated by TGF-beta 2 and that it suppressed migration and EMT induced by TGF-beta 2. Moreover, we identified Smad2 as a direct target of miR-30a, suggesting that miR-30a may function partly through regulating Smad2. Altogether, we verified the function of and crosstalk between miR-30a and TGF-beta 2. We also provide evidence that miR-30a may serve as a potential candidate for PCO treatment.
