Dysregulation of SNHG16(lncRNA)-Hsa-Let-7b-5p(miRNA)-TUBB4A (mRNA) Pathway Fuels Progression of Skin Cutaneous Melanoma.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Skin cutaneous melanoma(SKCM) is the most severe, and complex disease of all skin cancers. The molecular mechanisms of this cancer progression are not well understood.

Methods

GEPIA online database was used to validate the differentially expressed genes from two GEO datasets. The prognostic value was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RT-qPCR verified the expression of TUBB4A in SKCM cell line, and the immunohistochemistry of TUBB4A in SKCM and normal skin tissues were gained from Human Protein Atlas. Seven target prediction databases predicted potential microRNAs(miRNAs), and upstream long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs) were predicted by starBase. The co-expressed gene of TUBB4A was obtained using the two online analysis sites UALCAN and starBase. These co-expressed
