Genome-wide analysis of long non-coding RNA expression profile in lung adenocarcinoma compared to spinal metastasis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in tumor metastasis. The aim of the present study was to investigate their expression profile and potential functions in spinal metastasis (SM) of lung adenocarcinoma.

Methods

We conducted lncRNA and mRNA expression in lung adenocarcinoma and its SM tissue using microarray analysis. Quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) revealed 10 differentially expressed lncRNAs. Gene ontology and pathway analysis were performed to test the gene effect. Possible target genes of lncRNAs were predicted based on precise algorithms.

Results

Microarray analysis found many significantly differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma compared with SM. qRT-PCR results aligned w
