Abstract
GBM is the central nervous system's most aggressive and malignant tumor. TGF-β expression is elevated in GBM, and it promotes invasion and EMT. TGF-β regulates the expression of several lncRNAs, which promote glioma pathogenesis. Here we characterize the role of TGF-β-induced lncRNA- LINC01711 in glioma pathogenesis. We show that LINC01711 expression is significantly upregulated in GBM tissues and is associated with poor overall survival of GBM patients. Loss-of-function studies illustrate that LINC01711 promotes proliferation, migration, and invasion in GBM. In addition, LINC01711 depletion sensitizes glioma cells to Temozolomide (TMZ) induced apoptosis by inhibiting ZEB1 expression. LINC01711 functions as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-34a and promotes ZEB1 expression to regulate invasion. Our findings suggest that LINC01711 is an attractive therapeutic target for GBM.
