- Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of long non-coding RNA FGD5-AS1 on the proliferation,migration,and invasion of pituitary adenoma(PA)cells,and to analyze its potential mechanism of action.Methods Human PA cell lines HPAs,RC-4BC,HP75,and human astrocyte cell line NHA were cultured in vitro.The expression levels of FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a in the above cell lines were detected by RT-PCR.HP75 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into the silencing group and the negative control group.The silencing group was transfected with shRNA-FGD5-AS1,while the negative control group was transfected with shRNA-NC.The expression levels of FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a in the two groups of cells were detected by RT-PCR.The proliferation,migration and invasion abilities of the two groups of cells were determined by CCK-8 assay,wound healing assay,and Transwell assay.The expression of proteins related to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in the two groups of cells was detected by Western blot.The targeting relationship between FGD5-AS1 and miR-15a was verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay.Results Compared with the NHA cell,the expression level of FGD5-AS1 was significantly increased in the HPAs,RC-4BC,and HP75 cells((P<0.05),whereas the expression level of miR-15a was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the negative control group,the expression level of FGD5-AS1 was decreased(P<0.05),the expression level of miR-15a was increased(P<0.05),the OD value was decreased(P<0.05),the migration and invasion abilities of cells were reduced(P<0.05),and the expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin proteins was decreased in the silencing group of HP75 cells(P<0.05).FGD5-AS1 could specifically bind to miR-15a,leading to a decrease in cell luciferase activity(P<0.05).Conclusion FGD5-AS1 is overexpressed in PA cells,and silencing FGD5-AS1 can inhibit the proliferation,migration,and invasion of PA cells,and the mechanism is related to its targeted regulation of miR-15a.
