1 MiR-21 upregulation induced by promoter zone histone acetylation is associated with chemoresistance to gemcitabine and enhanced malignancy of pancreatic cancer cells. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND AND AIMS: MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is reported to be overexpressed and to contribute to proliferation, apoptosis and gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
3 BACKGROUND AND AIMS: MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is reported to be overexpressed and to contribute to proliferation, apoptosis and gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
4 Histone acetylation in the miR-21 promoter was also studied in gemcitabine-sensitive and gemcitabine-resistant PDAC cells. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
5 Gemcitabine-resistant HPAC and PANC-1 cells were transfected with pre-miR-21 precursors (pre-miR-21) and antisense oligonucleotides (anti-miR-21), and were treated with TSA. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
6 Gemcitabine-resistant HPAC and PANC-1 cells were transfected with pre-miR-21 precursors (pre-miR-21) and antisense oligonucleotides (anti-miR-21), and were treated with TSA. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
7 Gemcitabine-resistant HPAC and PANC-1 cells were transfected with pre-miR-21 precursors (pre-miR-21) and antisense oligonucleotides (anti-miR-21), and were treated with TSA. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
8 RESULTS: Serum miR-21 levels were increased in gemcitabine- resistant PDAC patients compared with gemcitabine-sensitive subjects. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
9 RESULTS: Serum miR-21 levels were increased in gemcitabine- resistant PDAC patients compared with gemcitabine-sensitive subjects. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
10 The miR-21 levels were increased in 6 PDAC cells treated with gemcitabine significantly, associated with 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50s). gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
11 Histone acetylation levels at miR-21 promoter were increased in PDAC cells after treatment with gemcitabine. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
12 Enhanced invasion and metastasis, increased miR-21 expression, decreased PTEN, elevated pAKT level were demonstrated in gemcitabine-resistant HPAC and PANC-1 cells. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
13 In contrast, anti-miR-21 transfection could reverse invasion and metastasis, and PTEN and pAKT expressions induced by gemcitabine. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
14 CONCLUSIONS: MiR-21 upregulation induced by histone acetylation in the promoter zone is associated with chemoresistance to gemcitabine and enhanced malignant potential in pancreatic cancer cells. gemcitabine microRNA 21 Homo sapiens
