LncRNA DIO3OS regulated by TGF-β1 and resveratrol enhances epithelial mesenchymal transition of benign prostatic hyperplasia epithelial cells and proliferation of prostate stromal cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The etiopathogenesis of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is extremely complicated which involving epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of epithelial cells and growth of stromal cells. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) belong to a group of noncoding RNAs which has been widely studied in other diseases but rarely in BPH. Here, we intend to investigate the roles of a lncRNA DIO3 opposite strand (DIO3OS) in BPH progression.

Methods

BPH-1 cells were used to study EMT and WPMY-1 cells were applied to study proliferation induced by TGF-β1, resveratrol, DIO3OS and miRNAs.

Results

DIO3OS was over-expressed in BPH tissues and could be upregulated by Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) and downregulated by resveratrol. Smad2/Smad3/Smad4 complex could bind to
