Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of miR-628 on migration and invasion of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs), which are essential for tumor recurrence and metastasis. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the expression of microRNAs and mRNAs. A subpopulation of CD44+/CD24- breast CSCs were sorted by flow cytometry. Transwell assays were used to evaluate cell migration and invasion. Luciferase reporter assays were performed to verify whether miR-628 targeted SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (SOS1). pcDNA3.1(+)-SOS1 was constructed for overexpressing SOS1 after transfection. Compared with primary breast cancer cells, bone metastatic breast cancer cells showed significant downregulation of miR-628. The CD44+/CD24- breast CSC subpopulations in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cell lines were analyzed and sorted. Transfection with an miR-628 mimic significantly suppressed the migration and invasion of these breast CSCs by targeting SOS1, which plays an essential role in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Overexpression of SOS1 rescued miR-628-mediated migration and invasion by upregulating Snail and vimentin, and downregulating E-cadherin. miR-628 suppressed migration and invasion of breast CSCs of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells by directly targeting SOS1. Enhancement of miR-628 expression might be an effective strategy for managing breast cancer metastasis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 September 2018.
All research outputs
#18,648,325
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from OncoTargets and therapy
#1,517
of 2,956 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#257,933
of 335,775 outputs
Outputs of similar age from OncoTargets and therapy
#79
of 148 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,956 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.6. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 335,775 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 148 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
