Long non-coding RNA GPR65-1 is up-regulated in gastric cancer and promotes tumor growth through the PTEN-AKT-slug signaling pathway.


ABSTRACT: Increasing evidence has shown that abnormal expression of lncRNAs is involved in various biological behaviors and major cellular pathways of human cancers. However, the role of lncRNAs in the progression of gastric cancer has not been adequately investigated. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the expression levels of linc-GPR65-1 using Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and found that linc-GPR65-1 was significantly up-regulated in 50 gastric cancer tissues compared to the corresponding normal tissues. In addition, increased linc-GPR65-1 expression was associated with TNM stage (P = 0.037), tumor size (P = 0.024), distal metastasis (P = 0.023), and poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Moreover, functional assays indicated that decreased linc-GPR65-1 expression inhibited the aggressive phenotypes of gastric cancer cells, and enhanced linc-GPR65-1 expression resulted in the opposite phenomenon. Then, a cancer signaling phosphoantibody microarray was conducted to explore the potential mechanisms of linc-GPR65-1 in regulating gastric cancer progression and observed that linc-GPR65-1 could regulate the PTEN-AKT-slug signaling pathway. These data showed that linc-GPR65-1, regulating the PTEN-AKT-slug signaling pathway, might act as a tumor promoter and serve as a novel target for gastric cancer prevention and therapy.
