  • Abstract:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been closely associated with the proliferation, invasion and migration of various cancers, including gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Previous studies have revealed dysregulation of miR-30b and miR-340 in many types of cancer. However, the role of miR-30b and miR-340 in the development and progression of GBC remains unclear. Moreover, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been gradually viewed as a significant contributor to tumor metastasis. In this study, the cell line GBC-SD was used and we explored that EMT promoted GBC cells invasion and migration and inhibited the expression level of miR-30b and miR-340 compared with the control. We showed that overexpression of miR-30b and miR-340 suppressed GBC cells proliferation, invasion and migration, as well as the expression of EMT-associated genes. In addition, we identified ecto-5＇-nucleotidase (NT5E) as a common target of miR-30b and miR-340 using bioinformatics analysis and a luciferase assay. Further experiments found that exogenous expression of NT5E in GBC cells could partially reverse the inhibitory effect of miR-30b and miR-340 on cell proliferation, invasion and migration. Our findings suggest that NT5E-targeting miRNAs (miR-30b and miR-340) function as tumor suppressors and may represent promising therapeutic targets for GBC.
