MicroRNA-520d-3p suppresses melanoma cells proliferation by inhibiting the anti-silencing function 1B histone chaperone.

ABSTRACT: As the most common and aggressive malignant form of skin cancer, melanoma has a poor prognosis in its late stage. MicroRNA (miR)-520d-3p has been reported as a key modulator that regulates the development of different types of cancer, but its role in melanoma remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of miR-520d-3p in melanoma. The expression of anti-silencing function 1B histone chaperone (ASF1B) and miR-520d-3p in melanoma tissues and cells was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The interaction between ASF1B and miR-520d-3p was verified by luciferase activity detection. Cell counting kit-8, bromodeoxyuridine, fluorescein isothiocyanate, and cell adhesion assays were performed to detect cell vi
