Drug ID: DB00515 (APRD00359)
Drug Name: Cisplatin
Drug Method: We used qRT-PCR to test miR-211 expression. Cell viability assay and mouse xenograft assay were performed to examine the role of miR-211 on the sensitivity of melanoma cells to cisplatin. The epigenetic modification of miR-211 promoter was assess by DNA methylation analysis and DAC treatment. RESULTS In this study, decreased miR-211 expression was detected. Bisulfite sequencing PCR showed that DNA hypermethylation contributed to the downregulation of miR-211 in melanoma tissues. In melanoma cells, overexpressed 211 could enhance the anticancer effect of cisplatin and restoration of miR-211 rendered susceptibility to cisplatin in cisplatin-resistant cells. And the same result was showed in vivo by mouse xenograft assay. What is more, DAC treatment could increase miR-211 expression and EZH2 expression was increased in cisplatin-resistant cells. MiR-211 could be transcriptionally repressed by EZH2 mediated promoter methylation.
