PG - 2017-26 LID - 10.3892/or.2016.4617 [doi] AB - MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are increasingly recognized as oncogenes or tumor suppressors in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). In this study, we analyzed the roles of miR-365a-3p, miR-143-5p, and miR-494-3p in LSCC using Annexin V/propidium iodide double staining and flow cyto-metry, along with a Transwell migration and invasion assay. The results showed that miR-365a-3p inhibitor significantly facilitated cell apoptosis and suppressed cell cycle progression, migration, and invasion in Hep-2 cells. However, miR-143-5p and miR-494-3p had no such influences. We then investigated the role of miR-365a-3p in LSCC in vivo and found that miR-365a-3p inhibitor suppressed LSCC xenograft tumor growth and metastasis in xenograft mouse models. Moreover, miR-365a-3p inhibitor significantly decreased the expression of p-AKT (Ser473), which indicated that miR-365a-3p can mediate PI3K/AKT signaling pathway transduction via p-AKT (Ser473) in LSCC. The data suggest that miR-365a-3p may act as an oncomiR and may promote growth and metastasis in LSCC via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and thus miR‑365a-3p may be a potential therapeutic target for treatment of LSCC.
