The functions of Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HOXB-AS1 have been investigated in glioblastoma and multiple myeloma. However, the role of lncRNA HOXB-AS1 in endometrial carcinoma (EC) remains largely unknown. This study investigated the underlying mechanisms of the lncRNA HOXB-AS1 on the progression of EC. In this study, We found that HOXB-AS1 expression was significantly upregulated in EC tissue samples and was associated with shorter survival time. Furthermore, upregulation of HOXB-AS1 promoted proliferation, invasion, and migration of EC cell. HOXB-AS1 and Wnt10b directly bound to miR-149-3p. HOXB-AS1 increased the expression of Wnt10b by binding to miR-149-3p. We further verified the upregulation of β-catenin, cyclin D1, and c-myc induced by HOXB-AS1. In conclusion, our results indicated that HOXB-AS1 exerted oncogenic function as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) of miR-149-3p to release Wnt10b and activated Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Homeobox genes and their encoded DNA-binding homeoproteins are master regulators of development. Consequently, these homeotic elements may regulate key steps in cancer pathogenesis. Here, using a combination of analyses of large-scale patient datasets, RNAi phenotyping, and validation studies, we investigated the role of HOXB2 in different molecular subtypes of human breast cancer (BC).

Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma worldwide with a high degree of heterogeneity. Cuproptosis and immunogenic cell death (ICD) have been considered to be vital for tumor progression. However, current understanding of cuproptosis and immunogenic cell death in DLBCL is still very limited.

RNA binding proteins have the critical role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression. However, the role of RBM47 in RCC has not been elucidated. In this study, we found that RBM47 was downregulated in RCC tissues and its expression was negatively correlated with the prognosis of RCC patients.

Gastric carcinoma has a high incidence, accounting for approximately 6% of all cancers worldwide. The in vivo antitumor effect of sodium selenite on gastric carcinoma has been demonstrated. This study therefore aimed to further explore its targets in gastric cancer in vitro and elucidate its mechanism of action.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are broadly transcribed in the genome of human and play critical roles in the progression of multiple diseases. Long non-coding HOXB cluster antisense RNA 1 (HOXB-AS1) is a tumor exciter in various cancers. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of HOXB-AS1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
