Caveolin-1 regulates the expression of miR-183 and inhibits the invasion and migration of invasive pituitary adenomas by affecting early growth response 1 (EGR1)/Krueppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) interaction

Abstract

Background: This study aims to investigate the mechanism through which Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) regulates the expression of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-183 in invasive pituitary adenoma (IPA) tissues and GH3 cells, and explore the effects of CAV-1 and miR-183 on the invasion and migration ability of GH3 cells.Methods: Western blotting was used to detect the expression level of CAV-1, early growth response 1 (EGR1) and Krueppel-like factor 5 (KLF5). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of miR-183. The mechanisms of interaction between CAV-1, EGR1, and KLF5 were studied by immunoprecipitation experiments. Transwell and cell scratch tests were used to determine the invasion and migration ability of GH3 cells. The dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to detect the effects of EGR1 and KLF5 on miR-183 luciferase activity and verify the targeting relationship between miR-183 and ezrin. Results:The expression of CAV-1 was up-regulated. However, following the knockdown of CAV-1, the invasion and migration ability of GH3 cells was significantly inhibited (P<0.05). The expression of miR-183 was down-regulated, but the expression level of miR-183 was markedly increased following the knockdown of CAV-1 (P<0.05). The knockdown of CAV-1 inhibited the nuclear ectopic of the EGR1 protein in GH3 cells.At the same time, the interaction between EGR1 and KLF5 in GH3 cells was significantly inhibited (P<0.05).The luciferase activity of miR-183 increased significantly after overexpression of KLF5 while overexpression of EGR1 and KLF5 had no significant effect on intracellular luciferase activity. Overexpression of miR-183 markedly inhibited the luciferase activity of wild-type EZR and the expression of the EZR protein in GH3 cells. Furthermore, the overexpression of miR-183 or the inhibition of EZR can reduce the invasion and migration ability of GH3 cells. The simultaneous overexpression or inhibition of miR-183 and EZR expression has no obvious effect on the invasion and migration ability of GH3 cells.Conclusions: CAV-1 up-regulates the expression of miR-183 by inhibiting the nuclear ectopic of EGR1 and the interaction between EGR1 and KLF5 in GH3 cells. Also, miR-183 negatively regulates the expression of EZR and inhibits the invasion and migration of GH3 cells.

Research on Performance Control of Intercalated Melt-blown Nonwoven Materials

“…Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a statistical method commonly used to identify differences between multiple groups of data [2]. In this research, material data such as thickness, porosity, and compression resilience ratio were calculated before intercalation, and the data for these materials after intercalation were recorded.…”
