ABSTRACT: Background
Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one common gynecological tumor, threatening physical and psychological health of females. Huge amount of essays indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were widely reported to serve as a crucial regulator in the biological movements among multiple carcinomas, including EC.Methods
RT-qPCR was implemented to detect the expression of target genes. Loss/gain-of-function experiments certified the impacts of OIP5-AS1 and miR-152-3p on EC cell progression.Results
Data of this research suggested that powerful expression of OIP5-AS1 was discovered in EC cell lines. Loss/gain-of-function assays inferred that OIP5-AS1 promoted proliferative, migratory and invasive abilities, and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT). In addition, we identified miR-152-3p expression was negatively modulated by OIP5-AS1. OIP5-AS1 accelerated the development of EC cells via downregulating miR-152-3p expression. SLC7A5 was selected out as a downstream target of miR-152-3p. The competing relationship between OIP5-AS1 and SLC7A5 was corroborated by luciferase reporter assay. Eventually, the results of rescue assays indicated that SLC7A5 overexpression could restore the impacts of OIP5-AS1 ablation on the progression of EC cells.Conclusion
Our research confirmed that OIP5-AS1 propeled the development of EC cells through targeting miR-152-3p/SLC7A5. OIP5-AS1 could be utilized as a target for EC treatment.
