Decreased AGGF1 facilitates the progression of placenta accreta spectrum via mediating the P53 signaling pathway under the regulation of miR-1296–5p

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS), an emerging health issue worldwide, is the major causative factor of maternal morbidity and mortality in modern obstetrics, but limited studies have contributed to our understanding of the molecular biology of PAS. This study addressed the expression of AGGF1 and its specific role in the etiology of PAS. The expression of AGGF1 in the placentas of PAS was determined by quantitative PCR , western blot and immunohistochemistry . CCK-8 assay, wound healing assay , Transwell invasion assay and flow cytometry assay were performed to monitor cell proliferation , migration, invasion and apoptosis . The interaction between miR-1296–5p and AGGF1 was detected by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Results showed that the mRNA and protein expression of AGGF1 was decremented in placental tissues of PAS patients, compared with samples from women with placenta previa and normal pregnant women. Downregulation of AGGF1 promoted cell proliferation, invasion and migration, inhibited apoptosis in vitro, decreased P53 and Bax expression, and simultaneously increased Bcl-2 expression, whereas overexpression of AGGF1 had the opposite results. Additionally, the dual-luciferase assay confirmed AGGF1 as a target gene of miR-1296–5p in placental tissues of PAS. Particularly, miR-1296–5p fostered HTR8/SVneo cell proliferation, invasion, repression of apoptosis and regulation of P53 signaling axis by downregulating AGGF1 expression. Collectively, our study accentuated that downregulation of placental AGGF1 promoted trophoblast over-invasion by mediating the P53 signaling pathway under the regulation of miR-1296–5p.
