Article Title: MiR-199a-5p Inhibits the Growth and Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer Cells by Targeting ROCK1
doi: 10.1177/1533034618775509
Figure Lengend Snippet: MicroRNA-199a modulates the progression of CRC cells via the PI3K/AKT and JAK/STAT signaling pathways. A, The miR-199a overexpression reduces PI3K/AKT signaling through ROCK1 downregulation. B, Overexpression of miR-199a suppresses JAK/STAT signaling through ROCK1 downregulation. C, Exogenetic overexpression of ROCK1 partially restores the miR-199a-induced inactivation of PI3K/AKT and JAK/signal transducing activator of transcription signaling pathways. CRC indicates colorectal cancer; JAK1, Janus kinase 1; miR-199a, microRNA-199a; PI3K, phosphoinositide 3-kinase; ROCK1, Rho-associated coiled coil-containing protein kinase 1; STAT, signal transducing activator of transcription.
Article Snippet: After blocking with 5% nonfat milk, the membranes were incubated with primary antibodies against ROCK1, p-PI3K (Tyr458), PI3K, p-AKT (Ser473), AKT, p-Janus kinase 1 (JAK1), JAK1, p-signal transducing activator of transcription (STAT) 3, STAT3, and GAPDH (1:1000; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, California) at 4°C overnight.
