Abstract
Cervical cancer is a highly prevalent female malignancy. Presently, cisplatin (DDP) is a first-line agent for cervical cancer chemotherapy. However, its curative effect is limited because of chemo-resistance. It has been previously reported that SOX9 targeted and activated oncogenic genes, enhancing cervical cancer cell resistance to DDP. The effects of the SOX9/lncRNA ANXA2P2/miR-361-3p/SOX9 regulatory loop on cervical cancer cell growth and resistance to DDP have been demonstrated. miR-361-3p expression was decreased in DDP-resistant cervical cancer cells and tissues. Moreover, miR-361-3p overexpression inhibited the growth of resistant cervical cancer cells and the resistance to DDP, whereas miR-361-3p inhibition exerted opposite effects. miR-361-3p inhibited SOX9 expression through binding; the effects of miR-361-3p inhibition were partially reversed by SOX9 knockdown. LncRNA ANXA2P2 expression was elevated in DDP-resistant cervical cancer cells and tissues. LncRNA ANXA2P2 inhibited miR-361-3p expression by binding, thereby upregulating SOX9. LncRNA ANXA2P2 knockdown inhibited DDP-resistant cervical cancer cell growth and resistance to DDP, whereas the effects of lncRNA ANXA2P2 knockdown were partially reversed by miR-361-3p inhibition. SOX9 expression was elevated in DDP-resistant cervical cancer cells and tissues, and SOX9 activated lncRNA ANXA2P2 transcription by binding. Collectively, SOX9, lncRNA ANXA2P2, and miR-361-3p form a regulatory loop, modulating DDP-resistant cervical cancer cell growth and response to DDP treatment.
