Abstract

ABSTRACT Long noncoding RNA LINRIS (LINC00920) is known to participate in colorectal cancer. This study aimed to explore the role of LINRIS in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC and adjacent non-tumor tissues were collected from 62 NSCLC patients. LINRIS expression was detected using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCRs). The 62 NSCLC patients were monitored every month for 5 years to evaluate the role of LINRIS in predicting the prognosis of NSCLC. The effects of LINRIS silencing on microRNA-10a (miR-10a) precursor and mature miR-10a levels were assessed by RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation was measured using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assays. LINRIS expression was upregulated in NSCLC tissues. High LINRIS levels predicted poor survival of NSCLC patients. LINRIS were positively correlated with mature (miR-10a) levels but not miR-10a precursor. In NSCLC cells, LINRIS silencing showed no role in miR-10a precursor accumulation but downregulated mature miR10a level. Moreover, LINRIS silencing inhibited cell proliferation, while miR-10a overexpression increased cell proliferation and inhibited the role of LINRIS silencing. Overall, LINRIS silencing may inhibit NSCLC cell proliferation by suppressing miR-10a maturation. Abbreviations: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); Reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR); LncRNA long intergenic noncoding RNA for IGF2BP2 stability (LINRIS).
