Silencing of Long Non-Coding RNA FGD5-AS1 Inhibits the Progression of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Regulating the miR-493-5p/DDX5 Axis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long non-coding RNA FGD5 antisense RNA 1 (FGD5-AS1), identified to be a carcinogenic lncRNA, exhibits a regulatory role in some malignancies including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the present research is to decipher the function and underlying mechanism of FGD5-AS1 in progression of NSCLC.

Methods

Expression of FGD5-AS1, miR-493-5p and DEAD-box protein 5 (DDX5) in NSCLC tissues and cells was quantified utilizing qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 method. Scratch healing test and Transwell assay were used for assaying cell migration and invasion. Expressions of DDX5 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins were examined by Western blot. Additionally, targeting relationships between FGD5-AS1 and miR-493-5p, miR-49
