Maternally expressed 3 (MEG3) and RNA binding motif single stranded interacting protein 3 (RBMS3) are abnormally expressed in breast cancer susceptibility genes (BRCA), but the mechanism of the two in breast cancer (BC) is unclear. By performing in vivo and in vitro experiments, we found that MEG3 and RBMS3 were low-expressed, negatively correlated with high-expressed miR-141-3p, were positively correlated with each other in BC. MEG3 targeted miR-141-3p, and miR-141-3p targeted RBMS3. MEG3, which was mainly distributed in BC cytoplasm, could down-regulate miR-141-3p and up-regulate RBMS3, and reverse effect of miR-141-3p on related gene expressions and on promoting cancer development. Overexpressed MEG3 inhibited growth of xenografts, promoted cell apoptosis via regulating apoptosis related factors, and up-regulated RBMS3 expression but down-regulated miR-141-3p. The findings of this study showed that MEG3 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of BC cells through the miR-141-3p/RBMS3 axis, and MEG3 inhibited growth of xenografts through miR-141-3p.
