Abstract:
Background: LncRNAs is closely related to the development and progression of colorectal cancer, and its abnormal expression and regulation in tumor have high specificity. Aims: To screen the differentially expressed lncRNAs in colorectal cancer via The Cancer LncRNome Atlas, and to investigate the expression and clinical significance of LINC02363 in colorectal cancer. Methods: Microarray data of colorectal cancer patients from The Cancer LncRNome Atlas and TCGA database were extracted. The differentially expressed lncRNAs in colorectal cancer were screened. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect LINC02363 expression in colorectal cancer cell lines and 53 colorectal cancer tissues from Shanghai Renji Hospital. Correlation of LINC02363 expression with survival and clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer patients in TCGA database was analyzed. Results: Two up-regulated lncRNAs and 12 down-regulated lncRNAs related to prognosis of colorectal cancer were screened. Compared with normal intestinal epithelial cells, expression of LINC02363 was down-regulated in colorectal cancer cells. Expression of LINC02363 was significantly decreased in colorectal cancer tissue. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that survival in low expression of LINC02363 group was significantly shorter than that in high expression of LINC02363 group. Low LINC02363 expression was positively correlated with distant metastasis of colorectal cancer. Conclusions: LINC02363 is down-regulated in colorectal cancer tissue, and patients with lower expression of LINC02363 have poorer prognosis and higher possibility of metastasis. It is suggested that LINC02363 can be used as a potential tumor marker to evaluate the development and distant metastasis of colorectal cancer.
