miR‐145‐5p affects the differentiation of gastric cancer by targeting KLF5 directly

Krüppel‐like factor 5 (KLF5) takes part in the pathologic processes of many types of cancer; however, its expression and roles in the biological behavior of gastric cancer remain unknown. TargetScan suggested that miR‐145‐5p is the predicted effective and conserved microRNA (miRNA) that binds to KLF...

Zusammenfassung:Krüppel‐like factor 5 (KLF5) takes part in the pathologic processes of many types of cancer; however, its expression and roles in the biological behavior of gastric cancer remain unknown. TargetScan suggested that miR‐145‐5p is the predicted effective and conserved microRNA (miRNA) that binds to KLF5 through its 3′‐untranslated region (UTR). We investigated the expression of KLF5 and miR‐145‐5p messenger RNA (mRNA) in gastric cancer and then analyzed its role in the biological behavior of gastric cancer cells. Our results indicated that KLF5 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry in 39.7% of the gastric cancer cases and was increased compared with that of the corresponding noncancerous normal mucosa (0.01
