摘要
MicroRNA is strongly associated with tumor growth and development. This study examined the potential roles of miR-125b in glioma growth. We found that miR-125b promotes glioma cell line growth and clone formation, and protects the glioma cells from apoptosis in vitro. The miR-125b-transfected glioma cells also demonstrated increased growth after in vivo transplantation. We further identified that miR-125b inhibits Connexin43 expression, and the overexpression of Connexin43 antagonizes the effects of miR-125b in cell growth and anti-apoptosis. We conclude that miR-125b regulates glioma growth partly through Connexin43 protein.
