Abstract: OBJECTIVE: in Ishikawa and KLE cells were detected. METHODS: The effects of three miRNAs on proliferation and apoptosis in EEC cells were analyzed in KLE and ISK cells transfected with miR-100-5p, miR-199a-3p and miR-199b-5p mimics and inhibitors. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), CCK-8 method, flow cytometry and luciferase reporter assay were used to assess the effects of three miRNAs on cell viability, proliferation, apoptosis, and autophagy. RESULTS: <0.05). Finally, luciferase reporter results showed miR-100-5p, miR-199a-3p and miR-199b-5p were all down-regulated the luciferase activity in cells transfected with miRNA mimics compared with mock. All results suggested that miR-100-5p, miR-199a-3p and miR-199b-5p may induce the autophagic death of EEC cell through targeting mTOR. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggested that miR-100-5p, miR-199a-3p and miR-199b-5p may induce the autophagic death of EEC cell through targeting mTOR.
