Tumor Suppressor miR-613 Alleviates Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cell via Repressing M2 Macrophage Polarization.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a crucial crux of cancer-related death, and M2 macrophage polarization facilitates NSCLC development. MicroRNA-613 (miR-613) is a tumor suppressor. This research aimed to clarify the miR-613 function in NSCLC and its impact on M2 macrophage polarization. Methods. miR-613 expressions in NSCLC tissues and cells were evaluated using quantitative real-time PCR. For miR-613 function in NSCLC, cell proliferation analysis, cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, western blot, transwell, and wound-healing were conducted. Meanwhile, the miR-613 impact on M2 macrophage polarization was assessed by the NSCLC models. Results. miR-613 was lessened in NSCLC cells and tissues. It was corroborated that miR-613 overexpression retrained NSCLC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration but facilitated cell apoptosis. Moreover, miR-613 overexpression restrained NSCLC development by repressing M2 macrophage polarization.

Conclusion

Tumor suppressor miR-613 ameliorated NSCLC by restraining M2 macrophage polarization.
