AIM:To investigate the effect of high dose glargine on the expression profiles of microRNAs in human pancreatic cancer cells.METHODS:Real-time polymerase chain reaction array (RT-PCR) was applied to investigate miRNAs differentially expressed in Sw1990 cells treated with or without 100 IU/L glargine.Stem-loop RT-PCR was used to confirm the results of the array assay in Sw1990 and Panc-1 cells.The effects of miR-95 on cell growth,apoptosis,invasion and migration abilities were respectively examined by CCK8 assay,apoptosis assay,Matrigel invasion and migration assay in Sw1990 and Panc-1 cells.Nude mice xenograft models with Sw1990 cells were built to investigate pancreatic cancer growth in vivo after transfection by the lentivirus pGLV3-GFP-miR-95.RESULTS:Ten miRNAs were significantly up-regulated and 2 miRNAs down-regulated in glargine treated Sw1990 cells when compared with non-treated cells (2.48-fold changes on average,P < 0.01).miR-95,miR-134 and miR-34c-3p are the top three miRNAs regulated by glargine (3.65-fold,2.67-fold and 2.60-fold changes respectively,P < 0.01) in Sw1990 cells.Stem-loop RT-PCR confirmed that high dose glargine up-regulated the expression of miR-95 and miR-134 in both Sw1990 and Panc-1 cells.The most obvious change is the apparent increase of miR-95.Forced expression of miR-95 significantly increased cell proliferation (Sw1990:2.510 ±0.129 vs 2.305 ± 0.187,P < 0.05; Panc-1:2.439 ± 0.211vs 2.264 ± 0.117,P < 0.05),invasion (Sw1990:67.90±12.33 vs 47.30 ± 5.89,P < 0.01; Panc-1:37.80 ± 8.93 vs 30.20 ± 5.14,P < 0.01),migration (Sw1990:101 ±6.00 vs 51.20 ± 8.34,P < 0.01; Panc-1:91.80 ± 9.22 vs 81.50 ± 7.47,P < 0.01) and inhibited cell apoptosis (Sw1990:22.05% ± 1.92% vs 40.32% ± 1.93%,P <0.05; Panc-1:20.17% ± 0.85% vs 45.60% ± 1.43%,P < 0.05) when compared with paired negative controls,whereas knockdown of miR-95 obtained the opposite effect.Nude mice xenograft models confirmed that miR-95 promoted the growth of pancreatic cancer in vivo when compared with negative control (tumor volume:373.82± 23.67 mL vs 219.69 ± 17.82 mL,P < 0.05).CONCLUSION:These observations suggested that modulation of miRNA expression may be an important mechanism underlying the biological effects of glargine.
