Up-regulated long noncoding RNA AB073614 modulates the tumor cell proliferation, invasion and migration in human colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common cancer and the function of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) AB073614 in CRC mainly unclear. Here, the expression of lncRNA AB073614 in CRC tissues was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). CCK-8 assays were conducted to explore the impact of AB073614 on cell proliferation. The effects of AB073614 on cell migration, invasion and apoptosis were evaluated by a Transwell in vitro assay. Apoptosis-related molecular marker expression levels were detected by Western blot analysis. In the present study, we confirmed that AB073614 was significantly upregulated in CRC tissues. A difference analysis in the lncRNA AB073614 expression in CRC patient group suggested that the expression of lncRNA AB073614 was independently associated with higher possibilities o
