The lncRNA TPTEP1 suppresses PI3K/AKT signalling and inhibits ovarian cancer progression by interacting with PTBP1.

ABSTRACT: The expression of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) TPTE pseudogene 1 (TPTEP1) is significantly downregulated in ovarian cancer (OC). However, the function and mechanism of the lncRNA TPTEP1 in OC have not been identified. To investigate the expression of the lncRNA TPTEP1, we analysed a publicly available dataset and 20 pairs of OC and normal ovarian samples tissue from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Functional assays were used to determine the role of the lncRNA TPTEP1 in OC progression. Furthermore, Western blot, FISH, RNA pull-down, mass spectrometry and RNA immunoprecipitation approaches were used to determine the mechanism by which the lncRNA TPTEP1 affects OC progression. Animal experiments were used to determine the role of the lncRNA TPTEP1 in ovarian tum
