MiR-19a-3p Functions as an Oncogene by Regulating FBXO32 Expression in Multiple Myeloma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multiple myeloma remains a virtually incurable hematologic malignancy, which is featured with the aberrant growth of malignant plasma cells.

Aims

To elucidate the functions of miR-19a-3p in multiple myeloma.

Study design

Cell study.

Methods

Cell counting kit-8 assay was performed to detect cell viability, and flow cytometry was conducted to detect cell apoptosis. Bioinformatics analysis predicted miR-19a-3p-associated biological function, pathway, core regulatory network, and target genes. Luciferase reporter assay verified the target sequence of miR-19a-3p regulating FBXO32.

Results

miR-19a-3p is upregulated in multiple myeloma cells (p<0.01) and patients with multiple myeloma (p<0.001). Overexpressed miR-19a-3p significantly increased cell v
