Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Two kinds of endometrial adenocarcinoma cell lines, Ishikawa and KLE, was transplanted into nude mice and biopsied to identify the expression of ERalpha, PR and p53, and test their response to estrogen and progesterone. Cultured the two cell lines under the estrogen-free and progesterone-free circumstance, total RNA was isolated to identify the differentially expressed microRNAs by microarray for prediction the microRNAs which target ESR1 and PGR by software miRANDA and TargetScan, and then was validated by real-time PCR in two cell lines cultured both in vivo and in vitro and ten specimens from patients. RESULTS: Ishikawa cell line was confirmed from type I endometrial adenocarcinoma, KLE cell line was confirmed from type II endometrial adenocarcinoma. One hundred and twenty-six differentially expressed microRNAs between the two cell lines were identified by microRNA microarray, among of which may target ESR1 included hsa-miR-100, 99a, and may target PGR included hsa-miR-378, 768-3p. The differential expression of hsa-miR-100, 99a, 378, 768-3p identified by microarray between Ishikawa and KLE in vivo and in vitro was equal to that by real-time PCR, while Hsa-miR-100 was significantly down expressed in type I group specimens compared to type II group (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION:
Hsa-miR-100 is significantly down-expressed in type I endometrial adenocarcinoma compared to type II, which may be a great potential to target ESR1.
