HAND2-AS1 plays a tumor-suppressive role in hepatoblastoma through the negative regulation of CDK1.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most commonly seen pediatric liver malignancy. The preliminary experiment of our research group found that cyclin dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) was upregulated in HB. By in silico analysis, long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HAND2 antisense RNA 1 (HAND2-AS1) was determined as the research object. Herein, HAND2-AS1 expression in HB and its effect and mechanism on HB were extensively investigated.

Methods

CDK1-related lncRNAs were searched using the microarray data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) online database. qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry were performed to determine the mRNA expression and protein levels of target genes. MTT, flow cytometry and DAPI staini
