Long non-coding RNA LINC01234 regulates proliferation, migration and invasion via HIF-2α pathways in clear cell renal cell carcinoma cells.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proved to have an important role in different malignancies including clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). However, their role in disease progression is still not clear. The objective of the study was to identify lncRNA-based prognostic biomarkers and further to investigate the role of one lncRNA LINC01234 in progression of ccRCC cells. We found that six adverse prognostic lncRNA biomarkers including LINC01234 were identified in ccRCC patients by bioinformatic analysis using The Cancer Genome Atlas database. LINC01234 knockdown impaired cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro as compared to negative control. Furthermore, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition was inhibited after LINC01234 knockdown. Additionally, LINC01234 knockdown im
