Expression data after miR-99a transfection in C4-2 prostate cancer cells

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been globally profiled in cancers but there tends to be poor agreement between studies including in the same cancers. Additionally, few putative miRNA targets have been validated. To overcome the lack of reproducibility, we profiled miRNAs by next generation sequencing and locked nucleic acid miRNA microarrays, and we verified concordant changes by quantitative RT-PCR. Notably, miR-125b and the miR-99 family members miR-99a, -99b, -100 were down-regulated in all assays in advanced prostate cancer cell lines relative to the parental cell lines from which they were derived. All four miRNAs were also down-regulated in human prostate tumor tissue compared to normal prostate. Transfection of miR-99a, -99b or -100 inhibited the growth of prostate cancer cells and decreas
