In vitro study of miRNA-369-3p targeting TCF4 regulating the malignant biological behavior of colon cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract. It is characterized by a high degree of malignancy, early metastasis and poor prognosis. Studies have shown the effect of miR-369-3p on the biological function of a variety of tumors. However, the mechanism by which miR-369-3p and its potential target genes participate in the pathogenesis of CRC has not been elucidated. This study aims to study the relationship between miR-369-3p and transcription factor 4 (TCF4), to reveal the mechanism of the occurrence and development of CRC, and to provide a promising target for the treatment of CRC. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the miR-369-3p levels in CRC tissues and cells. miR-369-3p mimics and/or TCF4 overexpression vector
