Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of LncRNA HOXA-AS2 in gastric cancer tissues and its effect on the malig-nant biology of gastric cancer.Methods The expression levels of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 in gastric cancer tissues and gastric cancer cell lines were detected by qPCR;the effect of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 on the prognosis of gastric cancer patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier Plotter,an online website for bioinformatics analysis;the correlation between the expression levels of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 and the clinical and pathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients;cell lines interfering with the expression of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 were constructed,and the effects of down-regulation of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 on the proliferation ability,migration ability and invasion ability of gastric cancer cells were analyzed using CCK8,clone formation assay,scratch assay and Transwell assay.Results The expression lev-el of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly upregulated in gastric cancer tissues compared with paraneoplastic tissues;the expression lev-el of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly higher in gastric cancer cell lines compared with human normal gastric mucosal cells GES(P<0.05);survival analysis showed that high expression of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was associated with poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients;lncRNA HOXA-AS2 expression level correlated with gastric cancer stage,lymph node metastasis and differentiation(P<0.05);the expression level of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was significantly decreased in gastric cancer cells transfected with SiRNA(P<0.05),and their cell proliferation,migration,and invasion ability were also significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion lncRNA HOXA-AS2 plays an oncogene role in gastric cancer and is associated with prognosis.Down-regulation of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 ex-pression can inhibit the proliferation,migration,and invasion ability of gastric cancer cells.
