Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the expression of miR-92a and BCL11b gene in radiation-induced thymic lymphoma in BALB/c mice, and the regulation of BCL11b by miR-92a. Methods BALB/c mice were irradiated with 1.75 Gy gamma rays with a dose rate of 0.382 Gy/min, 4 weeks in a row and once per week. 6 months after radiation, the incidence of the thymic lymphoma induced by ionizing radiation was checked and the mice were sacrificed. The thymuses of 6 typical mice with thymic lymphoma in the irradiated group and 6 mice in control group were taken for further detection. Real-time PCR were used to detect miR-92a expression. Western blot and FACS were employed to measure protein expression of BCL11b. The miR-92a sequence was inserted into pcDNA-DEST-47 plasmid to construct the eukaryotic expression vector (pcDNA-DEST-miR-92a) and to construct the BCL11b gene 3'UTR luciferase reporter plasmid (psiCHECK 2-BCL11b) at the same time. They were used to transfect EL-4 cells together for analysis of the regulation of miR-92a on the expression of BCL11b. Results The incidence of the thymic lymphoma induced by ionizing radiation was 58.51%. It was found that expression of the tumor suppressor gene BCL11b was down-regulated and expression of miR-92a was up-regulated in radiation induced thymic lymphoma tissue samples. There was an inverse correlation between BCL11b protein and miR-92a expression level among different tissue samples (r=-0.827, P<0.05). The expression of luciferase in the group transfected with pcDNA-DEST-miR-92a and psiCHECK 2-BCL11b plasmids was significantly lower than that in the group transfected with empty plasmid and BCL11b gene (t=3.42,P<0.05). Conclusions miR-92a maybe participate in radiation-induced carcinogenesis and regulate the expression of BCL11b gene. |
