Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) RP11-1212A22.4 on the cell viability and invasive ability of esophageal cancer cell lines by targeting miRNA-483-5p (miR-483-5p).Methods:The expression of RP11-1212A22.4 in esophageal cancer tissues was analyzed by using GEPIA online database. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of RP11-1212A22.4 in human esophageal cancer cell lines EC9706, KYSE30, TE-13, Eca109 and normal esophageal epithelial cell line HET-1A. The lowest expression level of EC9706 cell line in RP11-1212A22.4 was divided into RP11-1212A22.4 group (transfected with pcDNA-RP11-1212A22.4 plasmid) and the control group (transfected with pcDNA-NC plasmid). The cell viability of EC9706 cell was analyzed by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method, and the invasion ability of EC9706 cell was detected by using Transwell assay. The targeting relationship between RP11-1212A22.4 and miR-483-5p was verified by using StarBase database prediction and dual luciferase reporter assay. The relative expression level of miR-483-5p of EC9706 cell in two groups was detected by using qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6), matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2), cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) proteins in two groups.Results:In GEPIA online database, compared with adjacent tissues, the relative expression level of RP11-1212A22.4 in esophageal cancer tissues was decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.001). The relative expression levels of RP11-1212A22.4 in esophageal cancer cell lines EC9706, KYSE30, TE-13, Eca109 and normal esophageal mucosal epithelial cell line HET-1A were 0.11±0.08, 0.32±0.09, 0.72±0.09, 0.59±0.13 and 0.97±0.12, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 40.42, P < 0.001). The relative expression levels of RP11-1212A22.4 in EC9706 cells of RP11-1212A22.4 group and the control group were 11.9±2.4 and 1.0±0.3, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 8.89, P < 0.001). Compared with the control group, the cell viability of EC9706 cell in RP11-1212A22.4 group was decreased (all P < 0.05). The number of invasive cells in RP11-1212A22.4 group was lower than that in the control group (48±12 vs. 106±22, t = 4.63, P < 0.001). StarBase database prediction and dual luciferase reporter assay both showed that RP11-1212A22.4 targeted miR-483-5p. The relative expression level of miR-483-5p in RP11-1212A22.4 group was lower than that in the control group (0.24±0.11 vs. 1.02±0.23, t = 5.98, P = 0.001). Compared with the control group, the expressions of CDK6, MMP-2, CDK4 and MMP-9 proteins in the RP11-1212A22.4 group were decreased. Conclusions:RP11-1212A22.4 is lowly expressed in esophageal cancer tissues and cell lines, and it inhibits the cell viability and invasive ability of esophageal cancer cells by targeting miR-483-5p.
