MicroRNA-210 negatively regulates the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells

Abstract: Radiotherapy is one of the primary methods of treatment of malignant tumors, however, resistance to radiation is a major problem. The reasons for the radioresistance are still poorly understood. However, it is generally accepted that microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) can regulate the radiosensitivity of tumors. The present study therefore aimed to identify specific miRNAs and their effects on radioresistant cells. More specifically, the aim was to investigate specific miRNAs and their effects on radioresistant tumor … Show more

“…Numerous studies supported that miRNAs mediate the radiosensitivity of cancer cells by regulating target genes. In nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, miR-210 has been revealed to negatively regulate radiosensitivity ( 33 ). In human cervical carcinoma cells, miR-218 was revealed to promote radiation-induced apoptosis, increasing the radiosensitivity ( 34 ).…”

“…When miR-181a is expressed ectopically, the growth of radioresistant NPC cells is promoted, which has been verified by multiple assays ( 40 ). Moreover, the overexpression of miR-222 and miR-210 reduces the cell apoptosis rate by promoting cell viability, colony formation and tumor growth ( 41 , 42 ). Conversely, miR-31-5p mimics were found to remarkably slow cell proliferation and attenuate radiation resistance by binding to SFN ( 35 ).…”
