Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 960 regulates cancer cell viability, migration and invasion through modulating miR-146a-5p/interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase 1 axis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are considered as crucial regulatory factors in cancer biology. However, the biological function of long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 960 (LINC00960) in the tumorigenesis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is still unknown. The goal of this study is to investigate the role of LINC00960 in PDAC. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to examine the expression levels of LINC00960 in PDAC tissues and cell lines. After transfection, the loss-of-function models of LINC00960 or interleukin 1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) were established with BxPC-3 cells and Colo357 cells, and the malignant phenotypes of BxPC-3 cells and Colo357 cells were detected by CCK-8 assay, BrdU assay and Transwell assay, respectively.
