LncRNA AL139294.1 can be transported by extracellular vesicles to promote the oncogenic behaviour of recipient cells through activation of the Wnt and NF-κB2 pathways in non-small-cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) participate in cancer development via cell-to-cell communication. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), one component of EVs, can play an essential role in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) through EV-mediated delivery.

Methods

The NSCLC-associated lncRNA AL139294.1 in EVs was identified via lncRNA microarray analysis. The role of AL139294.1 in NSCLC was examined in vitro and in vivo. Confocal microscopy was used to observe the encapsulation of AL139294.1 into EVs and its transport to recipient cells. A co-culture device was used to examine the effects of transported AL139294.1 on the oncogenic behaviour of recipient cells. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify the direct interaction of miR-204-5p with AL139294.1 and bromod
