Gastric cancer is an important cause of death worldwide with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) considered a leading and known risk factor for its development. More particularly and despite the underlying mechanisms not being very clear, studies have revealed that the H. pylori cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) protein plays a key role in this process. In this study it was found that H. pylori increased the expression of miR-543 in human gastric cancer tissue when compared with H. pylori-negative gastric cancer tissue samples. In vitro experiments showed that increased expression of miR-543 induced by CagA is a strong promoter of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Conversely, a miR-543 inhibitor suppressed or reversed these effects. It was furthermore found that silencing miR-543 inhibited autophagy and led to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) under in vitro. The mechanisms by which miR-543 targets SIRT1 to downregulate autophagy was also described. The results suggest that in the progression of H. pylori-associated gastric cancer, CagA induces overexpression of miR-543, which subsequently targets SIRT1 to suppress autophagy. This may be followed by increased expression of EMT causing cell migration and invasion. Consequently, miR-543 might be considered a therapeutic target for H. pylori-associated gastric cancer.
