RNA sequencing uncovers the key long non-coding RNAs and potential molecular mechanism contributing to XAV939-mediated inhibition of non-small cell lung cancer.

The present study aimed to reveal the key long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and the potential molecular mechanisms of XAV939 treatment in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The NSCLC cell line, NCI-H1299, was cultured with 10 µM XAV939 for 12 h, and NCI-H1299 cells without XAV939 treatment were used as controls. Following RNA isolation from the two groups, RNA-sequencing was performed to detect transcript expression levels, and differentially-expressed lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs) and DE-genes (DEGs) were identified between groups and analyzed for their functions and associated pathways.
