摘要:
目的:确定lncRNA RP11-490M8.1在乳腺癌中的表达情况及其在乳腺癌细胞增殖中的作用。方法:基于癌症基因图谱(The Cancer Genome Atlas,TCGA)数据库和Kaplan-Meier plotter数据库分析RP11-490M8.1在乳腺癌中的表达情况及与患者预后的关系;qRT-PCR检测RP11-490M8.1在乳腺癌和癌旁组织中的表达;CCK8和克隆形成实验检测过表达和敲低RP11- 490M8.1对乳腺癌细胞增殖的影响。结果:与癌旁组织相比,RP11-490M8.1在乳腺癌组织中表达明显下调,且RP11-490M8.1 低表达和较差的总生存期(overall survival,OS)密切相关(P=0.034);RP11-490M8.1表达水平与乳腺癌患者的临床分期呈负相关,而与雌激素受体、孕激素受体、人表皮生长因子受体-2的表达以及年龄均无相关性;过表达RP11-490M8.1显著抑制乳腺癌细胞的增殖,敲低RP11-490M8.1表达则促进其增殖。结论:RP11-490M8.1在乳腺癌中可能发挥抑癌基因的作用,是潜在的乳腺癌预后分子和治疗靶点。
Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression of lncRNA RP11-490M8.1 in patients with breast cancer and its roles in the proliferation of breast cancer cells. Methods:The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and the Kaplan -Meier plotter database were used to define the expression level and prognostic value of RP11-490M8.1 in breast cancer,respectively. qRT-PCR was performed to detect the expression level of RP11-490M8.1 in paired breast cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues. CCK8 and clone formation assays were carried out to determine the effects of the overexpression or knockdown of RP11-490M8.1 on the proliferation of breast cancer cells. Results:Compared with adjacent normal tissues,RP11-490M8.1 was significantly downregulated in breast cancer tissues. Moreover, lower expression of RP11-490M8.1 was associated with the advanced clinical stage and worse overall survival(OS)(P=0.034). However,there was no correlation between RP11-490M8.1 level and the expression of estrogen receptor,progesterone receptor,human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 and age. Overexpression of RP11-490M8.1 markedly suppressed the proliferation of breast cancer cells,while knockdown of RP11-490M8.1 promoted its proliferation. Conclusion:RP11-490M8.1 acts as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer,which may serve as a potential prognostic molecule and therapeutic target for breast cancer
