Abstract:Purpose: To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) in gastric cancer cells, and the role of microRNA-144-3p (miR-144-3p) in the process.Methods: The effect of DEX on miRNA expression profile was analyzed using GEO database(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gds/). Human gastric cancer cells were cultured in vitro, and one group of cells was treated with saline for 48 h (control group). Cells treated with DEX at doses of 0.01, 0.1 and 1.0 μmol/L for 48 h were marked… Show more
