LncRNA growth arrest specific transcript 5 inhibits the growth of pituitary neuroendocrine tumors via miR-27a-5p/cylindromatosis axis.

ABSTRACT: The long noncoding RNA growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) has been reported to function as a suppressor in many cancers. However, the role and mechanism of lncRNA GAS5 in pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) remain unclear. Here, we found that lncRNA GAS5 and cylindromatosis (CYLD) expression was downregulated in invasive PitNET tissues and was negatively correlated with miR-27a-5p expression. LncRNA GAS5 overexpression inhibited proliferation of PitNETs cell line MMQ and GH3 cells and induced cell apoptosis, simultaneously, inhibited miR-27a-5p expression and increased CYLD expression. Moreover, miR-27a-5p mimic significantly decreased the luciferase activities of lncRNA GAS5 and CYLD luciferase reporter vector and downregulated CYLD expression, while miR-27a-5p inhibitor inc
