Abstract:
Purpose To investigate the expression of FUT8-AS1 gene in epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)tissues and cell lines and its relationship with clinical pathology and progno-sis,to investigate the effect of FUT8-AS on proliferation,inva-sion and EMT of epithelial ovarian cancer cell line and its possi-ble mechanism.Methods Based on GEPIA2 and Kaplan-Meier Plotter database,the expression of FUT8-AS1 in epithelial ovarian cancer and its effect on survival of patients with ovarian cancer were analyzed,the expression levels of FUT8-AS1 miR-142-5p,BCL2,and EMT marker genes were detected by qRT-PCR,CCK-8 and Transwell assays were used to detect the effect of abnormal expression of FUT8-AS1 gene on proliferation and invasion of CAOV3 cells.The interaction between FUT8-AS1 and miR-142-5p was verified by Dual-luciferase reporter assay sys-tem.Results Using GEPIA2 and Kaplan-Meier Plotter data-bases,it was found that the expression of FUT8-AS1 in epitheli-al ovarian cancer tumor tissue was significantly higher than that in normal tissue(P＜0.05),and the overall survival rate of the high expression group of FUT8-AS1 was significantly lower than that of the low expression group of FUT8-AS1(P＜0.01).The expression of FUT8-AS1 gene in 74 cases of epithelial ovarian cancer tissue was significantly higher than that of normal tissue[(2.547±1.370)vs(1.330±0.831),P＜0.01],and was associated with greater omentum metastasis,lymph node metas-tasis,FIGO staging,and survival(P＜0.01).Knocking down the FUT8-AS1 gene can inhibit the in vitro proliferation and in-vasion ability of epithelial ovarian cancer cell line CAOV3(P＜0.01 or P＜0.05).The results of dual luciferase reporter gene detection showed that co transfection with miR-142-5p mimics and FUT8-AS1-WT plasmids significantly reduced the luciferase activity of CAOV3 cells(P＜0.05).Transfection with miR-142-5p mimics could offset the downregulation of BCL2 gene ex-pression caused by knocking down FUT8-AS1 in CAOV3 cells(P＜0.05).Conclusion The FUT8-AS1 gene is highly ex-pressed in EOC and leads to poor prognosis.Knocking down the FUT8-AS1 gene can inhibit the in vitro proliferation,invasion,and EMT of CAOV3 cells.Mechanistically,the FUT8-AS1 gene may promote the progression of EOC by targeting the miR-142-5p/BCL2 molecular axis.
