miRNA-202 in bone marrow stromal cells affects the growth and adhesion of multiple myeloma cells by regulating B cell-activating factor
Abstract
Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) up-regulate B cell-activating factor (BAFF) in multiple myeloma. Increasing experimental evidence has shown that microRNAs play a causal role in hematology tumorigenesis. In this study, we characterized the role of miR-202 in regulating the expression of BAFF in BMSCs. It was found that expressions of BAFF mRNA and protein were increased in BMSCs treated with miR-202 inhibitor. The growth rate of miR-202 mimics transfection cells was significantly lower than that of non-transfected cells. The expression of Bcl-2 protein was down-regulated, and Bax protein was up-regulated after miR-202 mimics transfection. Over-expression of miR-202 in BMSCs rendered MM cells more sensitive to bortezomib. More significantly, the regulatory effect of miR-202 could inhibit the activation of NF-κB pathway in BMSCs. These results suggest that miR-202 functions as a modulator that can negatively regulate BAFF by inhibiting MM cell survival, growth, and adhesion in the bone marrow microenvironment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
