miR-23a-3p targeted to DNM3 with negative regulation and the inhibition of DNM3 expedited cancer cells proliferation, migration and invasion. (a) Bioinformatics analysis indicated there were complementary sequences between DNM3 and miR-23a-3p. The direct relationship between them was provided by the dual luciferase reporter assay. (b) DNM3 was downregulated confirmed via qRT-PCR in 60 pairs of cholangiocarcinoma tissues as well as normal tissues. (c) MiR-23a-3p was negatively correlated with DNM3 expression. (d) Western blot observed the suppressed DNM3 level in 8 pairs of cancer tissues. (e) The decreasing DNM3 level was found after transfection with miR-23a-3p inhibitor as well as si-DNM3. (f-g) CCK-8 as well as colony formation assays displayed the enhanced proliferation level of cells after silencing DNM3. (h) Tranwell assays exhibited that knockdown DNM3 could promote cell migration and invasion.
