WITHDRAWN: Lack of miR-216b-5p, miR-33a-5p or miR-122-5p in MSCs exosomes promotes breast cancer glycolysis by targeting HK2, LDHA and PKM2

Abstract

Exosomes contain many important components including miRNAs for cancerstromal communication. Mesenchymal stromal cells support tumor development, however, the low expression of miRNAs in exosomes and their regulation roles from mesenchymal stromal cells are still unclear. In this study, we hypothesized that mesenchymal stromal cells-derived exosomes promote breast cancer cell glycolysis. Our results showed that mesenchymal stromal cells-derived exosomes promoted cell proliferation and glycolysis of breast cancer cells. Furthermore, sequencing of exosomal RNAs revealed miR-216b-5p, miR-33a-5p and miR-122-5p were lack of expression in exosomes from mesenchymal stromal cells. MiR-216b-5p, miR-33a-5p and miR-122-5p overexpression in breast cancer cells suppressed glycolysis by targeting HK2, LDHA and PKM2 respectively. These results provided valuable insights and mechanism of mesenchymal stromal cells-secreted exosomes on the glycolysis of breast cancer.
