ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) nuclear-enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) exerts a pro-oncogenic role in several cancers, whereas its underlying regulatory mechanism in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) progression remains unknown. This research mainly explored the roles of NEAT1 in PTC development. Quantitative real-time polymerase-chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was applied to measure NEAT1, miR-524-5p, and inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1) expression in PTC tissues and cells. Western blot was conducted for detecting the protein levels. MTT, transwell, and flow cytometry assays were applied to assess cell proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis in PTC cells in vitro. The PTC xenograft tumor model was used for investigating the role of NEAT1 in vivo. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was utilized for confirming the interaction between miR-524-5p and NEAT1 or ID1. In PTC tissues and cells, NEAT1 was significantly up-regulated. NEAT1 silencing blocked cell proliferation, metastasis, and facilitated apoptosis in vitro and impeded xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Bioinformatics prediction revealed the existence of binding sites between NEAT1 and miR-524-5p. Besides, ID1 was confirmed as a direct target to miR-524-5p, and the enhancement of ID1 reversed the regulation of miR-524-5p upregulation on cell progression. In addition, NEAT1 promoted PTC development by regulating ID1 expression via sponging miR-524-5p in PTC. In summary, we demonstrate that NEAT1 advanced the process of PTC by miR-524-5p/ID1 axis, which may enhance our comprehension of PTC pathogenesis.
