Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) lung cancer associated transcript 1 (LUCAT1) on proliferation and migration of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) 786-O cells and the underlying mechanism. Methods: A total of 40 pairs of pathologically confirmed tumor tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues from ccRCC patients, who underwent surgical resection in the Department of Urology, the First People's Hospital of Yichang during June 2013 and June 2017, were selected for this study. ccRCC cell lines (786-O, ACHN, UM-RC-2) and normal renal epithelial KiMA cells were also used in this study. qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of LUCAT1, miR-199a-5p and hypoxia inducible fator 1α (HIF-1α) in above mentioned tissues and cell lines; CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate the proliferation of 786-O cells; Transwell assay was used to evaluate the migration of 786-O cells; Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to validate the relationship between LUCAT1 and miR-199a-5p; and Western blotting was conducted to detect the effect of LUCAT1 and miR-199a-5p on the protein expression of HIF-1α. Results: LUCAT1 was significantly up-regulated in ccRCC tissues and cell lines (all P<0.01), and its knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of 786-O cells (all P<0.01). miR-199a-5p was low-expressed in ccRCC tissues and cell lines (all P<0.01), StarBase analysis showed that LUCAT1 contained a conserved target site for miR-199a-5p. miR-199a-5p exerted significant suppression on the luciferase activity of LUCAT1-Wt (P<0.01), and LUCAT1 knockdown significantly reduced miR-199a-5p expression (P< 0.01). LUCAT1 was low-expressed in 786-O cells transfected with miR-199a-5p mimics, however, it was attenuated after co-transfection with LUCAT1. The mRNA and protein expressions of HIF-1α in 786-O cells transfected with miR-199a-5p mimics were up-regulated, which was then reversed by LUCAT1 over-expression (P<0.05 or P<0.01). miR-199a-5p over-expression suppressed the proliferation and migration of 786-O cells, which was partially attenuated by LUCAT1 transfection (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion: LUCAT1 exerts oncogenic function in ccRCC via regulating miR-199a-5p/HIF-1α axis.·
