Long non-coding RNA in prostate cancer.


ABSTRACT: Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in males and its development and progression remains an important area of study. Recently, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been evidenced as key players in cancer pathogenesis. Specifically, dysregulation of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression has shown to affect tumor proliferation and metastasis, acting as either tumor suppressors or oncogenes. However, its specific mechanisms and functions in prostate cancer remain unclear. This review provides an overview of currently available information on prostate cancer-related lncRNAs, including GAS5, GAS-007, MEG3, PCA3, PCAT14, PCAT1, PVT1, UCA1, SChLAP1, MALAT1, HOTAIR, and NEAT1. Notable tumor growth inhibitors include GAS5 and MEG3. GAS5 is evidenced to interfere with the AKT/MTOR signaling pathway through targeting microRNA mir-103. MEG3, however, is proposed to inhibit the cycle, sponge miR-9-5p, and induce gene silencing. PCAT1, PVT1, and UCA1 are important tumor growth promoters. PCAT1 is indicated to be a transcriptional repressor, a mir-145-5P sponge, and a P13K/AKT pathway activator. Studies suggest that PVT1 acts via microRNA targeting and regulating proliferating cell nuclear antigen. UCA1 may sponge miR-204 and miR-331-3p as well as regulate myosin VI. Thorough understanding of these lncRNAs may elucidate new aspects of prostate cancer pathology and serve a pivotal role in developing novel diagnostic and prognostic techniques.
