Long Non-Coding RNA GABPB1-AS1 Augments Malignancy of Glioma Cells by Sequestering MicroRNA-330 and Reinforcing the ZNF367/Cell Cycle Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Deregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is frequently relevant to the malignant phenotypical changes. This study aimed to explore the role of lncRNA GABPB1-AS1 in the malignancy of glioma cells.

Methods

Abnormally expressed genes in glioma were analyzed using a GEO GSE2223 dataset. Short hairpin (sh) RNA silencing of GABPB1-AS1 was introduced in glioma cells to explore its correlation with the proliferation, apoptosis, and invasiveness of cancer cells. The target transcripts of GABPB1-AS1 were predicted by bioinformatics analyses. MicroRNA (miR)-330 inhibition was additionally introduced in the glioma cells after GABPB1-AS1 knockdown for rescue experiments. Animal studies were performed by inducing xenograft tumors in nude mice.
