LncRNA ANRIL/miR-7-5p/TCF4 axis contributes to the progression of T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) is of great importance in cell biological behaviors, and ANRIL functions in many kinds of cancers including leukemia. However, the mechanism of ANRIL in the progression of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) has not been clarified clearly.

Methods

qRT-PCR was performed to detect ANRIL expression in T-ALL samples. T-ALL cell lines (MOLT4, CCRF-CEM and KOPT-K1) were used as the cell models. The function of ANRIL on T-ALL cells was investigated by CCK-8 assays, Transwell assays, and apoptosis experiments in vitro. qRT-PCR, Western blot, luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay were used to confirm the interactions between ANRIL and miR-7-5p, miR-7-5p and its target gene transcription factor 4 (TCF4).
