Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of miR- 498 on A549 cells epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition(EMT)and its correlated mechanism. Methods After miR- 498 was transfected into A549 cells, the cells were divided into control group, empty vector group and miR- 498 group; Transwell assay was employed to test the migration ability of A549 cells, Western blotting was used to investigate the expressions of E-cadherin, fibronectin, vimentin and FOXM1 in A549 cells. Luciferase assay was used to confirmed whether FOXM1-3'-UTR was the target gene of miR- 498. Then, the cells were divided into miR- 498 group, miR- 498 + FOXM1 group, and miR- 498 + empty plasmid group, and the above biological indicators of A549 cells were detected again. Results Compared with the empty vector group, the expression of E-cadherin was increased(P=0.001), the expression of fibronectin, vimentin and FOXM1were decreased(all P<0.01), and the migration ablitiy of A549 cells was decreased in the miR- 498 group(P=0.001); the Luciferase activity of the FOXM1-3'-UTR plasmid was significantly suppressed by miR- 498(P=0.001); over-expression of FOXM1 could reverse the effect of miR- 498 on A549. Conclusion miR- 498 inhibits A549 cells EMT by down-regulating FOXM1 expression.
