Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common female malignancy and the major cause of cancer-related death in women. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), as oncogenic or tumor suppressor factor, involved in the development and progression of various cancers. In this study, we sought to investigate the function of lncRNA CBR3-AS1 in breast cancer. We evaluated the expression pattern of CBR3-AS1 in breast cancer tissues and cell lines, explored the correlation between CBR3-AS1 expression and the survival time of breast cancer patients, and probed the effect of CBR3-AS1 on tumor progression of breast cancer through loss-of-function and gain-of-function strategies. Our results showed that CBR3-AS1 was overexpressed in breast cancer tissues and cell lines and predicted the prognosis of breast cancer patients. And CBR3-AS1 exerted biological function as an oncogenic lncRNA, involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, colony formation, apoptosis and tumor growth in breast cancer. Taken together, CBR3-AS1 was up-regulated in breast cancer and promoted the risk of breast cancer. It may be a novel therapeutic target and potential prognostic marker for breast cancer.
