ABSTRACT: Background
Long noncoding RNAs have been demonstrated to play important roles in different kinds of human malignancy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1232 (LINC01232) in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) and further explore the clinical significance of the potential miRNAs that might be sponged by LINC01232.Methods
The potential target miRNAs that might be sponged by LINC01232 were analyzed using bioinformatics analysis. The Real-Time quantitative PCR was adopted to measure the relative expression of LINC01232 and target miRNAs in PAAD serum and tissue samples. The diagnostic and prognostic value of LINC01232 was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, respectively.Results
LINC01232 expression was upregulated in PAAD serum and tissues and associated with patients' TNM stage. Serum LINC01232 expression had diagnostic value, and the high levels of LINC01232 could predict unfavorable prognosis in PAAD patients. miR-204-5p, miR-370-5p and miR-654-3p were proposed as 3 targets of LINC01232 in PAAD, and their decreased expression levels in PAAD patients showed certain clinical significance in diagnosis and prognosis.Conclusion
The data of this study revealed that LINC01232 expression is upregulated in PAAD serum and tissue samples with considerable diagnostic and prognostic significance. In addition, miR-204-5p, miR-370-5p and miR-654-3p may be sponged by LINC01232 in PAAD, which also show potencies in PAAD diagnosis and prognosis.
