Drug Method: In the study, we aim to explore the role and mechanism of miR-216a in the cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer. The effects of miR-216a overexpression and inhibition on ovarian cell proliferation, colony formation, and cisplatin resistance were investigated by MTT assay and soft agar colony formation assay. Bioinformatics analyses using TargetScan and rVista, qPCR, and luciferase assay were also used to explore and verify downstream effectors and regulators of miR-216a Proliferation, colony formation, and cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer cells are promoted by miR-216a overexpression but inhibited by miR-216a inhibition. PTEN is a direct target of miR-216a and PTEN expression antagonizes the tumor-promoting function of miR-216a STAT3 is a regulator of miR-216a, and PTEN is also regulated by STAT3. miR-216a up-regulation is associated with cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer and this effect is mediated by PTEN. STAT3 is a regulator of miR-216a Strategies that inhibit miR-216a is a potential strategy for overcoming the cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.
