Increasing evidence indicated that dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) were involved with human disease including cancer. Recently, miR-595 was reported as a tumor promoter in malignant mesothelioma. However, the underlying mechanism of miR-595 in human glioblastoma (GBM) cells have not been well elucidated. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the biological functions and molecular mechanisms of miR-595 in human GBM. MiR-595 expression was significantly upregulated in GBM tissues and cells. We modified miR-595 levels in GBM cells and investigated their effects on the cell proliferation by MTT, colony formation and anchorage-independent growth assays. We found that miR-595 significantly increased GBM cell proliferation. Bioinformatic analysis predicted that miR-595 may target the 3′-UTR of SOX7and suppressed its translation, and further confirmed by luciferase assay. In sum, these observations together indicated that miR-595 played a critical role in carcinogenesis by suppression of SOX7, and may serve as a therapeutic target for the treatment of GBM.
