Abstract

Effect of miRNA‑200c (miR‑200c) on the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of prostate cancer cell line LNCaP was investigated. The difference in miR‑200c expression was observed using RT‑qPCR in the NC group (transfected empty plasmid), simulation group (simulation sequence) and inhibition group (transferred inhibition sequence), which were established by transfecting LNCaP cells with a kit. The proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of cells after transfection were detected using the cell counting kit‑8 (CCK‑8) method, Transwell chamber and flow cytometry. RT‑qPCR detection showed that the relative expression of miR‑200c in LNCaP cells significantly increased compared with RWPE‑1 cells (P<0.05). The difference was statistically significant in the relative expression of miR‑200c cells among NC group, simulation group and inhibition group after transfection (P<0.05) and they significantly decreased in NC group of cells compared with the simulation group (P<0.05). CCK‑8 detection showed that there were differences at the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th days of growth in the NC group, simulation group and inhibition group of cells (P<0.05) and there was a difference in the proliferation ability between NC group and simulation group (P<0.05). Transwell chamber detection showed that there was a difference in the invasion ability among NC group, simulation group and inhibition group of cells (P<0.05), among which the number of passed membrane cells in inhibition group was significantly smaller than that in NC group and simulation group (P<0.05), and the difference was not statistically significant between NC group and simulation group (P>0.05). Flow cytometry detection of the apoptosis ability of each group of cells showed that there was a difference in the apoptotic rate in the NC, simulation and inhibition groups (P<0.05). The low expression of miR‑200c is beneficial to inhibit the proliferation and invasion of LNCaP cells in vitro and to promote apoptosis, which may be a potential target for prostate cancer biotherapy.
