MiR-122 Reverses the Doxorubicin-Resistance in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells through Regulating the Tumor Metabolism

Abstract: Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most commonly used anticancer drugs in the treatment of hepatoma. However, acquired drug resistance is one of the major challenges for the chemotherapy. In this study, a down-regulation of miR-122 was observed in doxorubicin-resistant Huh7 (Huh7/R) cells compared with its parental Huh7 cells, suggesting miR-122 is associated with the chemoresistance. Meanwhile, luciferase reporter assay proved that the PKM2 is the target of miR-122, and we reported that the glucose metabolism is… Show more

“…The tumor suppressor miR-122 has been found to promote adriamycin sensitivity in HCC cells through inhibiting cell cycle, anti-apoptotic effector factors and ABC transporters [82][83][84]. Similarly, miR-31 has been found to increase the sensitivity of HCC cells to adriamycin via silencing the expression of NDRG3 [85].…”

“…The absence of miR-122 is found to enhance the proliferation, metastatic, and tumorigenic properties of cancer cells [34,35]. On the other hand, the recovery of miR-122 expression has been reported to increase the chemosensitivity of cancer cells [36,37]. The overexpression of miR-122 may represent a potential strategy for cancer treatments.…”

“…The metabolic changes in Huh7 cells may be a contributor to the discrepancies between the cell line and hepatocytes in vivo 46 . Since the ECM can alter metabolisms in carcinoma cells including the energy pathways 50 The ECM changes amino acids bioavailability in Huh7 cells Availability of amino acids, the building block of proteins, may also be affected by the ECM and the 3D culture.…”
