Targeting AGTR1/NF-κB /CXCR4 axis by miR-155 attenuates oncogenesis in Glioblastoma

MiR-155 show conserved binding on the 3’UTR of AGTR1, subsequently confirmed by AGTR1-3’UTR-luciferase reporter assay. To determine the pathways regulated by miR-155, we overexpressed miR-155 in SNB19 glioblastoma cells using pLemiR lentiviral constructs. pLemiR vector, with turbo RFP (Open Biosystems) was used as control. Furthermore, stable miR-155 overexpressing GBM cells show a decrease in AGTR1-mediated cell proliferation, invasion, foci formation, anchorage-independent growth, Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition and stemness. Global expression profile of microRNA-155 overexpressing SNB19 glioblastoma cells were compared to control.
