RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To discuss the effect and mechanism of miR-34a on the proliferation, apoptosis and invasion of laryngeal carcinoma cells.@*METHODS@#The laryngeal squamous carcinoma Hep2 cells were transiently transfected with miR-34a mimics and miR-34a NC. The MTT, colony-forming assay, Hoechst staining and AnnexinV-PI double staining flow cytometry were employed to detect the effect of miR-34a on the viability and apoptosis of laryngeal squamous carcinoma Hep2 cells; Transwell assay to defect the effect of miR-34a on the migration and invasion of laryngeal squamous carcinoma Hep2 cells; western blot and RT-PCR assay to defect the effect of miR-34a mimics on the expression of survivin and Ki-67 mRNA in laryngeal squamous carcinoma Hep2 cells.@*RESULTS@#Compared with miR-34a NC group, the cell viability in miR-34 mimics group was significantly decreased (P < 0.01), the cell apoptosis rate was significantly increased (P < 0.01), the abilities of cell migration and invasion were significantly reduced (P < 0.01) and the expression of survivin and Ki-67 mRNA was significantly decreased (P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The increased expression of miR-34a can induce the apoptosis of Hep2 laryngeal carcinoma cells and inhibit the cell proliferation and invasion, which is related to the down-regulated expression of survivin and Ki-67.

Conclusions The increased expression of miR-34a can induce the apoptosis of Hep2 laryngeal carcinoma cells and inhibit the cell proliferation and invasion, which is related to the down-regulated expression of survivin and Ki-67.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the mechanism of survivin, p53 and Ki-67 on Hep-2 human laryngeal cancer endothelial cell proliferation and invasion.@*METHODS@#Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and paracancerous normal tissues were collected, total RNA was extracted from tissues, survivin, p53 and Ki-67 gene mRNA expression levels in laryngeal cancer and the adjacent tissues were detected by Real-time PCR. Human laryngeal cancer Hep-2 epithelial cells were selected, survivin gene was overexpressed, and cell proliferation was detected by MTT. p53 and Ki-67 gene expression changes in overexpressed survivin gene were detected by Western blot. Changes in Hep-2 cell invasive ability were studied when survivin was overexpressed as detected by Transwell invasion assay.@*RESULTS@#In the adjacent tissues, survivin, p53 and Ki-67 gene relative expression levels were 1.72 ± 0.9, 13.7 ± 5.7 and 5.7 ± 1.3, respectively; while in cancer tissues, gene relative expression levels were 53.7 ± 8.3, 66.7 ± 5.2 and 61.0 ± 3.1, respectively, which was significantly increased. As detected by MTT, relative cell survival rate within 12 h of survivin overexpression were: load control group (88.5 ± 1.6)%; overexpressed group (90.3 ± 1.9)%. Transwell invasion assay results indicated that overexpressed survivin could significantly increase the relative survival rate of cells.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Expressions of p53, Ki67 and survivin are increased in cancer; and there is a positive correlation between survivin, p53 and Ki67 expressions in laryngeal carcinoma.

Methods: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and paracancerous normal tissues were collected, total RNA was extracted from tissues, survivin, p53 and Ki-67 gene mRNA expression levels in laryngeal cancer and the adjacent tissues were detected by Real-time PCR. Human laryngeal cancer Hep-2 epithelial cells were selected, survivin gene was overexpressed, and cell proliferation was detected by MTT. p53 and Ki-67 gene expression changes in overexpressed survivin gene were detected by Western blot.
