Abstract:
Objective:To explore the expression of lncRNA ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer tissues and cell lines, and the effect of ARHGAP5-AS1 on the proliferation and invasion of renal cancer cell lines and its molecular mechanism.Methods:The GEPIA database was used to analyze the expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer tissues, and its relationship with clinical stage, overall survival and disease-free survival of renal cancer patients was analyzed. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression level of ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer cells (786-O, Caki-1, OS-RC-2, ACHN, A-498). Renal carcinoma OS-RC-2 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARHGAP5-AS1 plasmid or pcDNA3.1 plasmid, denoted as ARHGAP5-AS1 group and control group. Colony formation assay and Transwell assay were used to detect changes in the proliferation and invasion ability of OS-RC-2 cells. Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to verify the targeting relationship between ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p. The Starbase v3.0 online database was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p in renal cancer tissues. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression level changes of miR-155-5p. Western blotting was used to detect the expression changes of Raf/MEK/ERK molecular pathway proteins p-Raf, p-MEK, p-ERK, p-FBW7, and c-MYC. The measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), the independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups. Results:ARHGAP5-AS1 was lowly expressed in renal cancer tissues ( P<0.01), and its expression level was related to the clinical stage, overall survival and disease-free survival of patients with renal cancer ( P<0.01). ARHGAP5-AS1 showed low expression in renal cancer cell lines (786-O, Caki-1, OS-RC-2, ACHN, A-498) ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the proliferation and invasion abilities of OS-RC-2 cells in ARHGAP5-AS1 group were significantly reduced ( P<0.01). Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that ARHGAP5-AS1 targets and binds to miR-155-5p ( P<0.01). The expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p in renal cancer tissues was negatively correlated ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression of miR-155-5p in OS-RC-2 cells in the ARHGAP5-AS1 group was significantly reduced ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression levels of Raf/MEK/ERK molecular pathway proteins p-Raf, p-MEK, p-ERK, p-FBW7, and c-MYC in OS-RC-2 cells in the ARHGAP5-AS1 group were reduced. Conclusions:lncRNA ARHGAP5-AS1 is lowly expressed in renal cancer tissues and is related to the clinical stage and survival of renal cancer patients. ARHGAP5-AS1 inhibits the proliferation and invasion of renal cancer cells by targeting the expression of miR-155-5p.
