Long Non-Coding RNA AL513318.2 as ceRNA Binding to hsa-miR-26a-5p Upregulates SLC6A8 Expression and Predicts Poor Prognosis in Non-Small Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Studies have demonstrated that the regulatory role of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks is closely related to tumorigenesis, which provides new targets for tumor therapy. In this study, the focus was to explore the ceRNA networks that regulate SLC6A8 expression and their prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods

Firstly, the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data combined with immunohistochemical staining was used to compare SLC6A8 expression in NSCLC tissues and normal tissues. Thereafter, samples from the immunohistochemical staining of NSCLC were integrated with clinical follow-up data for prognostic analysis. The Starbase database was employed to search for SLC6A8-targeted miRNAs and lncRNAs, and survival analysis was per
