Increasing evidence revealed that the aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been implicated in tumorigenesis. However, the role and mechanisms of LINC00662 in glioma have not been elucidated. Here, we show that upregulation of LINC00662 expression in glioma is associated with advanced clinical features and poor prognosis. Our results from loss-of-function assays suggest that LINC00662 silencing suppresses the proliferative and invasive abilities of glioma cells. glioma growth was inhibited by depletion of LINC00662 in nude mice. Mechanistically, LINC00662 directly interacts with miR-107. The High-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) is a known target of miR-107. Moreover, rescue assays reveal that HMGB1 overexpression (or miR-107 inhibition) reverses the glioma growth inhibition caused by LINC00662 knockdown. In conclusion, our results indicate that LINC00662 acts as an oncogene in glioma by modulating the miR-107/HMGB1 axis, suggesting that LINC00662 could be a novel therapeutic target for glioma treatment.

Objective: This study aimed to identify the expression profile and prognostic significance of inflammation-associated lncRNAs in chronic viral hepatitis (CVH) and CVH-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (CVH-HCC).
Material And Methods: In the first step, lncRNA expression analysis was performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using an array panel of 84 inflammation-associated lncRNAs in 48 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples (12 CVH-HCC, 12 peritumoral cirrhotic parenchyma, 12 nontumoral cirrhotic CVH parenchyma, 12 normal liver samples). In the second step, 7 lncRNAs (DLEU2, HOTAIR, LINC00635, LINC00662, RP11-549J18.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are nucleotide sequences that participate in different biological processes and are associated with different pathologies, including cancer. Long intergenic non-protein-coding RNA 662 (LINC00662) has been reported to be involved in different cancers, including colorectal, prostate, and breast cancer. However, its role in gallbladder cancer has not yet been described.

This study explored the molecular mechanism of in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC). Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect gene expression in HSCC tissues.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) occurs in the elderly and pre-elderly, characterized by decline of memory, cognitive dysfunction, impairment of learning capacity, and motor dysfunction. Recently a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network has been found to be related to AD progression, but there is still little understanding of the ceRNA regulatory network in AD. This study aims to explore the important regulatory mechanisms of ceRNA regulatory networks containing long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in AD.
