LncRNA ENST00000422059 promotes cell proliferation and inhibits cell apoptosis in breast cancer by regulating the miR-145-5p/KLF5 axis.

ABSTRACT: Krüppel-like zinc-finger transcription factor 5 (KLF5) is a vital regulator of breast cancer (BC) onset and progression. The mechanism by which KLF5 regulates BC is still not clearly known. In this study, bioinformatics analysis shows that BC-affected individuals with elevated KLF5 expression levels have poor clinical outcomes. We further verify that miR-145-5p regulated KLF5 expression to promote cell apoptosis and inhibit cell proliferation in BC via dual-luciferase reporter assay, western blot analysis, qRT-PCR, CCK-8 assay and cell apoptosis assay. In addition, based on bioinformatics analysis, the binding of ENST00000422059 with miR-145-5p is confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Subsequently, FISH, western blot analysis, qRT-PCR, CCK-8 and cell apoptosis assays verified that E
