Pro-Angiogenesis Role of LINC00662 From Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells-Derived Extracellular Vehicles.

ABSTRACT: Objective: LINC00662 is oncogenic in some human cancers, but no much was revealed concerning to its specific action in tumor angiogenesis. Given that, our study investigated the role of LINC00662 from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells-derived extracellular vehicles (EVs) in angiogenesis through microRNA (miR)-195-5p/vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) axis. Methods: Clinical tissue samples were collected from patients with ESCC, in which LINC00662, miR-195-5p and VEGFA expression was analyzed. ESCC cells were transfected, from which EVs were isolated. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were co-cultured with the pretreated EVs. After that, viability, colony formation ability, invasion, migration and tube formation ability of HUVECs were obse
