Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the expression of lncRNA01296 in esophageal cancer (EC) tissues and its effect on the proliferation and migration of EC TE-2 cells. Methods: A total of 36 pairs of esophageal cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues were collected from EC patients admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College from January 2017 to September 2018. The human normal esophageal epithelial (HEEC) cells and human esophageal cancer cell lines ECA109, TE-1 and TE-2 were cultured. qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of lincRNA01296, SNRPA (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein A) and NGF (nerve growth factor) in EC tissues and cells. Recombinant lentiviral interference vectoror control vector were used to transfect EC cell lines, as sh-lncRNA01296#1,#2 and Mock groups. WB was used to detect the protein expressions of SNRPA and NGF in transfected cells. MTS assay was used to detect cell proliferation, and Transwell assays were used to detect cell invasion and migration of TE-2 cells after transfection. Results: The mRNA expressions of lncRNA01296, SNRPA and NGF were significantly increased in esophageal cancer tissues and cell lines (all P<0.01), and these expressions in poorly differentiated TE-2 cells were higher than those in highly differentiated ECA109 and TE-1 cells (all P<0.05). The mRNA expressions of lncRNA01296 and NGF in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly lower than those in Mock group (all P<0.01), while the mRNAexpression of SNRPAshowed no statistical difference among three groups (P>0.05). The protein expressions of lncRNA01296 and NGF in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly lower than those in Mock group (all P<0.01). The relative proliferation ability of cells in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and shlncRNA01296# 2 groups was significantly lower than that of Mock group at 48 and 72 h after transfection (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The number of invasive cells was (72.0±6.3), (36.6±4.3) and (33.9±3.7) in Mock, sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups, respectively; and the number of migrated cells was (85.2±9.9), (47.5±8.1) and (43.8±6.5), respectively, indicating that the numbers of invasive and migrated cells in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly less than those in Mock group(all P<0.01). Conclusion:lncRNA01296 can up-regulate SNRPA expression to promote NGF-mediated proliferation and metastasis of EC cells, which may provide new target for the diagnosis and treatment of esophagealcancer.
