BACKGROUND:RUNX1-IT1 suppresses colorectal cancer and liver cancer, while its role in other cancers is unknown. This study was performed to investigate the role of RUNX1-IT1 in endometrial cancer (EC). METHODS:EC and paired non-tumor tissues were collected from 62 EC patients, and the expression of RUNX1-IT1, mature miR-21 and miR-21 precursor in these tissue samples were determined by RT-qPCR. Correlations were analyzed by linear regression. Overexpression of RUNX1-IT1 was achieved in EC cells and the expression of mature miR-21 and miR-21 precursor were analyzed by RT-qPCR. CCK-8 assay was used for cell proliferation analysis. RESULTS:We found that RUNX1-IT1 was downregulated in EC and inversely correlated with mature miR-21 but not miR-21 precursor. RUNX1-IT1 was predicted to bind with miR-21 precursor. The interaction between them was verified by dual-luciferase activity assay and RNA pull-down assay. In EC cells, overexpression of RUNX1-IT1 downregulated mature miR-21, but not miR-21 precursor. Overexpression of RUNX1-IT1 suppressed the role of miR-21 in increasing cell proliferation. CONCLUSION:RUNX1-IT1 is downregulated in EC and inhibits cancer cell proliferation by suppressing the maturation of miR-21.
