Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression of long non-coding RNA-LINC01410 in the pancreatic cancer tissues, corresponding paracancerous tissues, human pancreatic cancer cell lines and normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line, and analyze the effect of LINC01410 on pancreatic cancer cell proliferation and migration. Methods: Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression level of LINC01410 in 16 cases of pancreatic cancer tissue and its adjacent tissues. RT-qPCR was performed to analyze LINC01410 expression in the pancreatic cancer cell lines AsPC-1, CAPAN-1, SW1990, BxPC-3 and CFPAC-1, and human normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE6-C7. Transfection of interference plasmid (shRNA) in the pancreatic cancer cell line with the highest expression level of LINC01410 were used to knock-down the expression of LINC01410. CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, and transwell chamber assay were performed to detect the proliferation and migration of pancreatic cancer cells. The complementary paired miRNAs and downstream genes of LINC01410 were predicted by bioinformatics. The expression of miRNA and downstream genes was detected by RT-qPCR, and the protein expression of downstream genes was determined by Western blot. Results: The expression of LINC01410 in the pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in the adjacent tissues [(3.46±0.32) vs (0.65±0.08), P<0.01]. The expression levels of LINC01410 in the pancreatic cancer cell lines were significantly higher than that in the normal human pancreatic ductal epithelial cells (P<0.05). The expression of LINC01410 was highest in BxPC-3 cells (P<0.01). After knock-down of the LINC01410 expression in the pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3, the cell proliferation was significantly inhibited (P<0.05), and the cell migration ability was decreased (P<0.05). LINC01410 complementarily paired with miR-497-5p, and miR-497-5p complementarily paired with IFITM3. After inhibiting the expression of LINC01410, the expression of miR-497-5p was increased [(1.04±0.17) vs (5.79±0.43), P<0.01], the mRNA expression of IFITM3 was decreased [(0.39±0.05) vs (1.00±0.03), P<0.01], and the protein expression of IFITM3, CDK6, Cyclin D2, PCNA, Vimentin, and N-cadherin was decreased. Conclusions: The expression of LINC01410 was increased in pancreatic cancer tissues and cell lines. Down-regulation of LINC01410 expression inhibits the proliferation and migration of pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cells, and its mechanism may be closely related to regulating the miR-497-5p and IFITM3 gene expression.
