MiR‑500a‑5p promotes glioblastoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion by targeting chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 5.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma is one of the most common malignant primary tumors and develops in brain. The molecular mechanism that regulates glioblastoma occurrence still remains unknown. MicroRNA (miR)‑500a‑5p has been reported to be involved in hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer. Whether miR‑500a‑5p regulates glioblastoma progression requires further investigation. In the present study, miR‑500a‑5p was highly expressed in malignant glioblastoma tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of miR‑500a‑5p promoted glioblastoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro. In addition, knockdown of miR‑500a‑5p accelerated cell apoptosis. Furthermore, miR‑500a‑5p inhibition significantly impaired tumor growth in vivo. The present study further explored the downstream mechanism. The luciferase repo
