  • Abstract:The tumor-suppressive role of microRNA-216a-3p (miR-216a-3p) has been evidenced in multiple tumors. Yet, the relevance of miR-216a-3p in cervical cancer remains undermined. The current study was designed to determine the expression and potential function of miR-216a-3p in cervical cancer. Expression of miR-216a-3p was markedly decreased in cervical cancer and functional assays revealed an inhibitory effect of miR-216a-3p on the proliferation, colony formation, and invasion of cervical cancer. Actin-like 6A (ACTL6A) was identified as a target gene of miR-216a-3p. Elevated ACTL6A expression was detected in cervical cancer, and ACTL6A inhibition exhibited a tumor-suppressive effect. ACTL6A inhibition increased yes-associated protein (YAP) phosphorylation and downregulated YAP-mediated transcriptional activity. ACTL6A restoration or YAP reactivation partially abrogated the miR-216a-3p-mediated antitumor effect in cervical cancer cells. Taken together, these data demonstrate that miR-216a-3p acts as a potential tumor-suppressive miRNA in cervical cancer, which exerts its function through inhibition of YAP signaling via targeting ACTL6A.
