Quantitative proteomics analysis of glioblastoma cell lines after lncRNA HULC silencing.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a life-threatening brain tumor. This study aimed to identify potential targets of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HULC that promoted the progression of GBM. Two U87 cell lines were constructed: HULC-siRNA and negative control (NC). Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the transfection efficiency of HULC silencing vector. Mass spectrometry (MS) was used to generate proteomic profiles for the two cell lines. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed to distinguish HULC-related genes and pathway mapping. Colony formation, Transwell, and wound-healing assays were used to investigate the functional effects of HULC knockdown on GBM. We identified 112 up-regulated prot
