Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EV) can transport microRNAs (miRNAs) into colorectal cancer (CRC) cells, thus to inhibit the malignant phenotype of cancer cells. Whether MSC-EV could deliver miR-34a-5p to suppress CRC development was surveyed through the research. miR-34a-5p, c-MYC, DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a), and phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) expression were measured in CRC tissues and cell lines. miR-34a-5p and c-MYC expression were altered by transfection in HCT-116 cells. MSC-EV were transfected with miR-34a-5p- and c-MYC-related oligonucleotides and co-cultured with HCT-116 cells. HCT-116 cell growth after treatment was observed. Furthermore, the functional roles of miR-34a-5p and c-MYC were explored in vivo. The combined interactions of miR-34a-5p/c-MYC/DNMT3a/PTEN axis were assessed. miR-34a-5p and PTEN were downregulated while c-MYC and DNMT3a were upregulated in CRC. Depletion of miR-34a-5p drove while that of c-MYC restricted CRC cell growth. MSC-EV retarded CRC progression. Moreover, MSC-EV carrying overexpressed miR-34a-5p or depleted c-MYC further disrupted CRC cell progression. miR-34a-5p targeted c-MYC to regulate DNMT3a and PTEN. c-MYC overexpression abrogated EV-derived miR-34a-5p upregulation-induced effects on CRC. Restoring miR-34a-5p or depleting c-MYC in MSC-EV limited CRC tumor formation. MSC-EV-derived miR-34a-5p depresses CRC development through modulating the binding of c-MYC to DNMT3a and epigenetically regulating PTEN.Keywords: Colorectal cancer; DNA methyltransferase 3a; Extracellular vesicles; Mesenchymal stem cells; MicroRNA-34a-5p; Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10; c-MYC.
