Role of HDAC1 in the progression of gastric cancer and the correlation with lncRNAs.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common life-threatening cancer type worldwide, with an increasing prevalence and a high rate of mortality. Due to limitations in clinical treatment, surgery has become the most efficient strategy for the treatment of GC. It is urgent to identify novel biomarkers, which are useful for the diagnosis of GC and for improving the survival rate of patients with GC. HDACs are multi-functional proteins and are involved in regulating gene expression, cell proliferation and the epigenetic regulation. However, the precise role of HDACs in the progression of GC remains unknown. The present study demonstrated that HDAC1 is involved in the promotion of GC cell proliferation, possibly by upregulating the expression of the lncRNAs, BC01600 and AF116637, in the tissues of patients with GC. Abnormal expression profiles of lncRNAs were observed in the tissues of patients with GC. lncRNAs were analyzed in the GSE64951 and GSE19826 databases, and it was revealed that BC01600 and AF116637 were two typically upregulated lncRNAs. Furthermore, it was revealed that BC01600 and AF116637 are regulated by HDAC1, as evidenced by decreased expression of these two lncRNAs in HDAC1-knockout SC-M1 cell lines, and by reduced expression of HDAC1 in these two lncRNA-knockout SC-M1 cell lines. Silencing of HDAC1 decreased the proliferation and increased the apoptosis of SC-M1 cell lines, but had no effect on the migration of the SC-M1 cell lines. The present study provided evidence of the importance of HDAC1 in the progression of SC-M1, and the association between HDAC1 and the expression of lncRNAs. The results of the present study indicated that HDAC1 may be a promising target for the clinical treatment of GC.
