DANCR promotes glioma cell autophagy and proliferation via the miR‑33b/DLX6/ATG7 axis.

ABSTRACT: Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are common in the human body. Misregulated lncRNA expression can cause a variety of diseases in the human body. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of lncRNA differentiation antagonizing non‑protein‑coding RNA (DANCR) on glioma proliferation and autophagy through the microRNA (miR)‑33b/distal‑less homeobox 6 (DLX6)/autophagy‑related 7 (ATG7) axis. Reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR was used to detect DANCR and miR‑33b expression. Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay and flow cytometry were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy was used to determine the autophagy level by observing intracellular autophagosomes. A western blot assay was used to detect protein expression levels and determine the le
