SP1/RNASEH2A accelerates the development of hepatocellular carcinoma by regulating EMT.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The expression level of Ribonuclease H2, subunit A (RNASEH2A) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been reported, but the function of RNASEH2A on HCC cells development and the related molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we intend to explore the upstream regulator of RNASEH2A and its role in the HCC progression.

Methods

GEPIA website was employed to determine the level of RNASEH2A in HCC tissues and get a survival analysis. After reducing RNASEH2A expression by RNA interference, cell counting kit-8, colony formation, Western blot, Transwell and wound healing assays were performed to estimate the malignant properties of HCC cells. The transcriptional factor of RNASEH2A was predicted by UCSC and JASPAR database and confirmed by dual luciferase assay and Ch-
