Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the mechanism of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) LBX2-AS1 regulating glioma cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis through epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway.Methods:From April 2018 to August 2021, glioma U251 cells (U251 cells for short) were divided into control group and observation group, with 4 strains in each group. The control group was routinely cultured, and the observation group was transfected with specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting LBX2-AS1. The proliferation ability of U251 cells was detected by methyl thiazol tetrazolium method, the metastasis rate of U251 cells was detected by scratch test, the apoptosis rate of U251 cells was detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of total protein and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), phosphorylated inositol 3 kinase (p-PI3K), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt), phosphorylated Ras (p-Ras) and phosphorylated Raf (p-Raf) protein were detected by Western blot.Results:The proliferation ability and metastasis rate of U251 cells in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group: (27.15 ± 1.38)% vs. (63.54 ± 2.47)% and (37.09 ± 3.74)% vs. (82.17 ± 9.24)%, the apoptosis rate of U251 cells was significantly higher than that in control group: (69.17 ± 5.83)% vs. (17.58 ± 1.22)%, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The expression of total protein and VEGF, p-PI3K, p-Akt, p-Ras, p-Raf protein of U251 cells in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (1.52 ± 0.23 vs. 2.39 ± 0.31, 0.73 ± 0.08 vs. 1.68 ± 0.45, 0.57 ± 0.11 vs. 1.89 ± 0.31, 0.68 ± 0.06 vs. 1.74 ± 0.51, 0.84 ± 0.12 vs. 1.99 ± 0.63 and 0.71 ± 0.08 vs. 1.52 ± 0.37), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The lncRNA LBX2-AS1 is highly expressed in glioma cells. Silencing the expression of lncRNA LBX2-AS1 inhibits the proliferation and metastasis of glioma cells through EGFR pathway.
