Datasets exploring putative lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA axes in breast cancer cell lines.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)/microRNA (miRNA)/messenger RNA (mRNA) interactions regulate oncogenesis and tumour suppression in breast cancer. Oncogenic lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA axes may offer novel therapeutic targets; therefore, identifying such axes is a clinically relevant undertaking. To explore miRNAs regulated by oncogenic lncRNAs, we queried the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to find datasets that profiled gene expression changes upon lncRNA knockdown in breast cancer. We identified four microarray datasets that permitted our interrogation of genes regulated by lncRNAs LincK, LincIN, SPRY4-IT1 and AC009283.1. We specifically analysed changes in miRNA transcripts within these datasets to study miRNAs regulated by each of the four lncRNAs. We subsequently identified the predicte
