dc.description.abstractMicro-RNA (miRNA)-based regulation of hypoxia, angiogenesis and tumour growth provides promising targets for effective therapy in malignant glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Accumulating evidence suggests a potential role of melatonin in miRNA expression in cancer cells. Despite these findings, the melatonin-miRNA interaction in GBM and the effect of this interaction on GBM tumour development and invasion are not clearly understood. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of melatonin on human GBM tumour spheroid tumorigenesis and invasion in vitro, and to analyse the interaction between 36 angio-miRNAs and the HIF1/VEGF/ MMP9 axis, which is known to be associated with the antitumour effect of melatonin. We found that melatonin is able to selectively induce cell death in single-layer U87-MG cells (a GBM cell line) in a dose- and time-dependent manner, as characterized by MTT assay. The use of tumour spheroids and a Matrigel invasion assay revealed that melatonin impairs tumorigenesis, and it significantly reduced both the tumour spheroid area and invasion rate, especially at the 0.5 mM and 1 mM concentrations. This inhibition was accompanied by strong reductions in hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1-alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene expression and protein levels in GBM tumour spheroids. In addition, melatonin significantly reduced the relative gene expression and protein levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). This study revealed that six differentially expressed angio-miRs (miR-15b, miR-18a-5p, miR-23a-3p, miR-92a-3p, miR-130a-5p, miR-200b-3p) may play important roles in GBM tumorigenesis and invasion, and all respond to melatonin therapy. Our results suggest that melatonin inhibits tumorigenesis and invasion of human GBM tumour spheroids, possibly by suppressing HIF1 alpha/VEGF/MMP9 signalling via regulation of angio-miRNAs.en_US
