lncRNA-DANCR Promotes Taxol Resistance of Prostate Cancer Cells through Modulating the miR-33b-5p-LDHA Axis
Figure 4
miR-33b-5p is negatively associated with Taxol resistance. (a) Expressions of miR-33b-5p from prostate tumors () and adjacent normal tissues () were analyzed by qRT-PCR. (b) Expressions of miR-33b-5p were examined in two non-tumorous prostate cell lines and four PCa cell lines. (c and d) PC3 and LN96 cells were transfected with control miRNA or miR-33b-5p for 48 hours. Cells were treated with Taxol at the indicated concentrations. Cell viability was examined by MTT assay. (e) Expressions of miR-33b-5p were examined in parental and Taxol-resistant PC3 cells. (f) PC3-TXR cells were transfected with control miRNA or miR-33b-5p; the expressions of miR-33b-5p were shown. (g) The above cells were treated with Taxol at the indicated concentrations; cell survival was examined by MTT assay and (h) Annexin V apoptosis assay. , , and .
