Abstract:Background
To explore the mechanism of DNMT1 facilitating proliferation and metastasis of breast cancer cells by promoting MEG3 promoter methylation in MEG3/miR-494-3p/OTUD4 regulatory axis.
Methods
Human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, SKBR3) and human breast epithelial cell line MCF10A were selected for the experiments. The expressions of DNMT1, MEG3, miR-494-3p and OTUD4 were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of DNMT1 and OTUD4. ChIP assay verified t… Show more
