Abstract
BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer (GC) is a serious threat for public health worldwide. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) linc00152 has been well reported to be an oncogene and a potential biomarker in multiple cancers including GC. However, the molecular mechanisms of linc00152 in GC development need to be further investigated. METHODS: RT-qPCR assay was employed to detect the levels of linc00152, microRNA-193b-3p (miR-193b-3p) and ETS1 mRNA. ETS1 protein level was measured by western blot assay. Cell proliferative, migratory and invasive capacities were assessed by colony formation together with CCK-8 assays, transwell migration and invasion assays, respectively. Bioinformatics analyses and luciferase reporter assay were used to explore whether miR-193b-3p could interact with linc00152 or ETS1 3'UTR. The roles and molecular basis of linc00152 silence on the growth of GC xenograft tumors were tested in vivo. RESULTS: Linc00152 expression was notably upregulated in GC tissues and cells. The proliferative, migratory and invasive abilities of GC cells were weakened by linc00152 depletion, miR-193b-3p overexpression or ETS1 knockdown. Linc00152 upregulation inhibited miR-193b-3p expression by direct interaction and abolished miR-193b-3p-mediated anti-proliferation, anti-migration and anti-invasion effects in GC cells. ETS1 was a target of miR-193b-3p and linc00152 could promote ETS1 expression by downregulating miR-193b-3p. In vivo experiments further validated that linc00152 knockdown inhibited the growth of GC xenograft tumors by upregulating miR-193b-3p and downregulating ETS1. CONCLUSION: Knockdown of linc00152 inhibited GC progression by sequestering miR-193b-3p from ETS1 in vitro and in vivo, elucidating a novel molecular mechanism of linc00152 in promoting GC carcinogenesis.
