الوصف: | OBJECTIVES This study aimed to enhance the sensitivity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells by microRNA-34a (miR-34a)-mediated targeting of Notch 1. METHODS Cell viability was determined by using an MTT (3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo(-2)-3,5-diphenytetrazoliumromide) assay. The expression levels of miR-34a and relevant mRNAs were determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Protein levels were measured by Western blotting. Cellular stemness was assessed by cell invasiveness and sphere formation assays. A transplanted tumor model was established for in vivo experiments. RESULTS MicroRNA-34a enhanced gemcitabine sensitivity both in vivo and in vitro. MicroRNA-34a suppressed the stemness and proliferation of pancreatic cancer stem cells. MicroRNA-34a directly associated with Notch 1, which lies upstream of epithelial-mesenchymal transition signaling pathways. CONCLUSIONS MicroRNA-34a sensitized pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine treatment by inhibiting Notch 1 signaling in pancreatic cancer stem cells, indicating that miR-34a has the potential to be developed as a novel therapeutic agent for the treatment of gemcitabine-resistant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells. |
