Melanoma is an aggressive malignancy that is increasingly common and exhibits a poor patient survival rate. Radiotherapy is the primary option for patients with melanoma, particularly those who are not candidates for surgery; however, the therapeutic effect is limited due to the relative radioresistance of melanoma to ionizing radiation (IR). It has been reported that microRNAs (miRNAs) serve a vital role in determining the radiosensitivity of tumors; however, little is known concerning the radiosensitization of melanoma using miRNA. In the present study, the radiosensitization effect of miRNA 185 (miR-185), which has been demonstrated to reduce renal cancer radioresistance, was investigated in B16 cells, a skin melanoma cell line derived from C57/BL mice, was investigated. Cell proliferation and scratch wound healing assays were used to determine the proliferative and migratory abilities of B16 cells. Annexin V/propidium iodide double staining was used to determine the apoptosis induced by IR. A tumor formation assay was performed to determine the radiosensitization effect of miR-185 on melanoma cells in vivo. Proliferation marker protein Ki-67, and hematoxylin and eosin staining were used to assess the proliferative activity and histological changes, respectively. The results of the present study demonstrated that miR-185 suppresses cellular proliferation and migration, and enhances IR-induced apoptosis, and the inhibition of proliferation and migration, in vitro and in vivo, which provides an insight into understanding the radiosensitization of melanoma using miRNA.
