miR-543 Inhibits the Occurrence and Development of Intrauterine Adhesion by Inhibiting the Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Endometrial Cells

Objective To explore the function of miR-543 in endometrial cells and the possible mechanism of regulating the occurrence and development of intrauterine adhesion.Method Endometrial epithelial cells and endometrial adenocarcinoma cells were transfected with miR-543 mimics and miR-543 inhibitor as the experimental group and were tested with the control group, using the CCK-8 method, scratch test, and Transwell assay, and flow cytometry was used to detect the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of cells. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of corresponding mRNA and protein.Results After the overexpression of miR-543, endometrial epithelial cells and endometrial adenocarcinoma cells have reduced migratory, proliferative, and invasive capabilities, while the apoptosis rate has increased significantly. The mRNA expression of CDH2 , COL16A1 , vimentin , α-SMA and fibronectin decreased, and the protein expression of CDH2, vimentin, and α -SMA also decreased, while the mRNA and protein expression of CDH1 increased. The result after interfering with miR-543 is opposite, and luciferase reporter gene confirms that CDH2 is the target gene of miR-543.Conclusion During the formation of intrauterine adhesions, the expression of CDH2 , COL16A1 , vimentin , and α-SMA may be inhibited by the high expression of miR-543, which may affect the degree of fibrosis and collagen content in the intrauterine adhesions, thereby inhibiting the occurrence and development of intrauterine adhesions.
