LINC01232 exerts oncogenic activities in pancreatic adenocarcinoma via regulation of TM9SF2.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), one of the most prevailing malignant tumors in digestive system, is identified as one of the main culprits of cancer-associated mortality. Despite long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1232 (LINC01232) is found to be upregulated in TCGA PAAD tissues and associated with poor prognosis, the potential of LINC01232 in PAAD progression still needs more explorations. In this study, LINC01232 was chosen to be the research object in PAAD cellular processes. Functionally, loss-of function assays were carried out and the experimental results indicated that suppression of LINC01232 hindered the deterioration of PAAD by affecting cell proliferation and migration. Furthermore, relationship between LINC01232 and its nearby gene transmembrane 9 superfamily member 2 (TM9
