MicroRNA-143 regulates cell migration and invasion by targeting GOLM1 in cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: Accumulated research has revealed that the abnormal expression of microRNAs play a crucial role in tumorigenesis, potentially serving as therapeutic biomarkers in multiple tumors including cervical cancer. However, the expression level, biological role and the underlying mechanism of miRNA-143 in cervical cancer remain unclear. In the current study, we analyzed the miRNA-143 and golgi membrane protein 1 (GOLM1) expression in cervical cancer tissues and cells to explore their effects on cervical cancer occurrence and metastasis. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the miRNA-143 expression in cervical cancer tissues and cells. Following transfection, cell Transwell assays, western blot analysis and luciferase reporter assays were carried out in human cervical
