MicroRNA‐124‐3p suppresses PD‐L1 expression and inhibits tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer cells via modulating STAT3 signaling

Programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) plays a significant role in colorectal tumorigenesis through induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and suppression of antitumor immunity. Furthermore, microRNAs (miRNAs) as the posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression show considerable promise as a therap...

Description
Summary:Programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) plays a significant role in colorectal tumorigenesis through induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and suppression of antitumor immunity. Furthermore, microRNAs (miRNAs) as the posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression show considerable promise as a therapeutic target for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. Considering this, in vitro effects of miRNA‐124 (miR‐124‐3p) on CRC cell tumorigenesis and Tregs differentiation via targeting PD‐L1 were investigated in the current study. Functional analysis showed that miR‐124 is significantly downregulated in CRC tissues as compared with marginal normal samples (p
