Examination of the effects of microRNA-145-5p and phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 in colon cancer.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies manifested that microRNA-145-5p is pivotal in the development of various cancers. Nevertheless, the potential function of microRNA-145-5p in colorectal cancer remains unclear. This study attempted to investigate the potential role and possible mechanism of microRNA-145-5p in colon cancer. MicroRNA-145-5p and phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 (PSAT1) levels in colon cancer cells were assayed via quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell proliferation and cell cycle status were assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation, and flow cytometry. The target binding relationship of microRNA-145-5p and PSAT1 was identified using bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. The result of qRT-PCR disclosed that microRNA-1
