Histone deacetylases (HDACs) inhibitor is a promising new approach to the treatment of lung cancer therapy via inhibiting cell growth and inducing apoptosis. miR-15a and miR-16-1 are important tumor suppressors through modulating B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Cyclin D1, D2, and others. However, whether HDACs inhibitor modulates the expression of miR-15a/16-1 in lung cancer is still unknown. The purpose of our study was to identify a new miRNA-mediated mechanism which plays an important role in the anti-cancer effects of HDACs inhibitor. We found HDACs inhibitors trichostatin A (TSA) and sodium butyrate upregulated the expression of miR-15a/16-1, residing in the host tumor suppressor Dleu2 gene, through increasing the histone acetylation in the region of Dleu2/miR-15a/16-1 promoter in lung cancer cells. Moreover, among class Ι HDACs subtypes, only knockdown of HDAC3 by specific siRNA increased the hyperacetylation of Dleu2/miR-15a/16-1 promoter region and finally resulted in the upregulation of miR-15a/16-1. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-15a/16-1, which were always deleted or downregulated in lung cancer cells, effectively suppressed cell growth and reduced colony formation. Finally, TSA reduced the expression of Bcl-2, an important survival protein in lung cancer cells, partly through upregulation of miR-15a/16-1. Therefore, this offers a therapeutic strategy that lung cancer patients who exhibit low level of miR-15a/16-1 or high activity of HDACs may benefit from HDACs inhibitor-based therapy.
