SP1 induced long non-coding RNA LINC00958 overexpression facilitate cell proliferation, migration and invasion in lung adenocarcinoma via mediating miR-625-5p/CPSF7 axis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Increasing evidences have underlined the importance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in human malignancies. LINC00958 has been found involved in some cancers. However, the underlying mechanical performance of LINC00958 in lung adenocarcinoma (LAD) has not been explored yet.

Methods

The expression of relevant mRNA and protein were measured by qRT-PCR and western blot assays. EdU, colony formation, TUNEL and transwell assays were performed to investigate the function of LINC00958 on LAD progression. Luciferase reporter, RNA pull down and RIP assays were conducted to investigate the molecular mechanism of relevant RNAs.

Results

LINC00958 was found notably overexpressed in LAD, which was associated with the stimulation of its promoter activity induced by SP1.
