Drug Name:
Paclitaxel
Drug Method:
The aim of the present study was to investigate the role and mechanism of action of miR-200c-3p in the resistance of breast cancer to paclitaxel. It was observed that miR-200c-3p expression, as determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis, was significantly downregulated in paclitaxel-resistant MCF-7/Tax cells compared with parental MCF-7 cells. Overexpression of miR-200c-3p increased the chemosensitivity to paclitaxel and enhanced apoptosis in MCF-7/Tax cells, whereas the downregulation of miR-200c-3p exerted the opposite effect. In addition, upregulation of miR-200c-3p in MCF-7/Tax cells suppressed the expression of sex-determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2) at the mRNA and protein levels. Dual-luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that SOX2 is a target of miR-200c-3p in MCF-7/Tax cells. Moreover, knockdown of SOX2 expression increased chemosensitivity to paclitaxel and upregulated miR-200c-3p expression in MCF-7/Tax cells.
