Abstract

Purpose: Paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cancer has become an urgent clinical problem. This study investigated the regulatory effects of RAB17 on the non-coding RNA network of the paclitaxel-resistant ovarian cancer cell A2780/PTX. Methods: Microarray analysis was used to identify differentially expressed genes in paclitaxel-resistant cell A2780/PTX compared to the parent paclitaxel-sensitive cell A2780. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot were used to measure the expression of related mRNAs and proteins. The CCK8 assay was used to determine cell survival ratios and drug resistance indices in ovarian cancer cells. The clone forming assay was used to analyze the cell clone proliferation. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the cell cycle. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assays evaluated the relationship between the genes. Results: RAB17 is highly expressed in A2780/PTX cells. RAB17 knockdown increased the cell sensitivity to paclitaxel, inhibited proliferation, and caused cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase in A2780/PTX. Western blot confirmed that RAB17 influenced cell behavior by activating the CDK6/RB signaling pathway. Bioinformatics analyses identified RAB17 as a new target by the microRNA miR-370-3p, and the latter was predicted to interact with circular RNA hsa_circ_0000714. Hsa_circ_0000714 indeed acted as a miRNA sponge for miR-370-3p allowing its regulation of RAB17 expression. This regulation was accomplished through the CDK6/RB signaling pathway. Conclusion: Hsa_circ_0000714 acts as a sponge for miR-370-3p, and regulates RAB17 expression through the CDK6/RB signaling pathway, which plays a role in the malignant progression of the paclitaxel-resistant ovarian cancer cell A2780/PTX.
