Valproic acid regulates the miR-155/Jarid2 axis by affecting miR-155 promoter methylation in glioma.

ABSTRACT: The most frequent primary brain tumor in adults is glioma, yet no effective curative treatments are currently available. Our previous study demonstrated the enhancing effects of JARID2 on glioma sensitivity to TMZ treatment. In this study, miR-155 is predicted to target JARID2. miR-155 is overexpressed in clinical glioma specimens and cell lines. miR-155 overexpression in glioma cells enhances cell viability and represses cell apoptosis. Through targeting, miR-155 inhibits JARID2 expression. miR-155 inhibition inhibits glioma cell viability and enhances cell apoptosis, whereas JARID2 knockdown enhances cell viability and inhibits cell apoptosis; JARID2 knockdown partially reverses miR-155 inhibition effects on glioma phenotypes. miR-155 inhibition reduces but knockdown of
