Long noncoding RNA SH3PXD2A-AS1 promotes NSCLC proliferation and accelerates cell cycle progression by interacting with DHX9.

ABSTRACT: As the most commonly diagnosed lung cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is regulated by many long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). In the present study, we found that SH3PXD2A-AS1 expression in NSCLC tissues was upregulated compared with that in normal lung tissues in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database by using the GEPIA website. K-M analysis was performed to explore the effects of this molecule on the survival rate in NSCLC. The results demonstrated that SH3PXD2A-AS1 expression was increased in human NSCLC, and high SH3PXD2A-AS1 expression was correlated with poor overall survival. SH3PXD2A-AS1 promotes lung cancer cell proliferation and accelerates cell cycle progression in vitro. Animal studies validated that knockdown of SH3PXD2A-AS1 inhibits NSCLC cell proliferation in vivo. M
