miR-28-5p’s Targeting of GAGE12I Inhibits Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Gastric Cancer in Vitro

GAGE12I is a tumor metastasis-promoting factor, which can induce gastric cancer cells to invade and migrate. We investigated the effect of miR-28-5p targeting GAGE12I on proliferation, invasion, and migration of human gastric cancer cell lines SGC-7901, AGS, and MGC-803. The expression levels of miR-28-5p and GAGE12I were detected by real-time PCR and western blot, respectively. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were measured by MTT and Transwell chamber. The interaction between miR-28-5p and GAGE12I was investigated by bioinformatics analysis and luciferase assay. Results showed that the expression of miR-28-5p in human gastric cancer cell lines was lower than that in normal gastric epithelial cells (P
