Background: The association between LINC01305, a newly discovered long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and cervical cancer (CC) has been poorly analyzed. In the present study, we revealed high expression of LINC01305 in CC by the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and dissected the related mechanisms.
Methods: LINC01305, microRNA (miR) -129-5p and SRY-related high-mobility group box 4 (Sox4) mRNA levels were quantitated by quantitative reverse transcription-PCRy qRT-PCR). CC tissues and cell lines and corresponding controls were enrolled for the quantification of LINC01305 expression in CC. Effects of LINC01305 and miR-129-5p on cell proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis were evaluated by MTT, colony formation, wound healing, Transwell and flow cytometry assays. Sox4 protein levels were tested by Western blot (WB). Bioinformatics analysis, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) assay were performed to determine molecular mechanisms of LINC01305 in CC. Xenograft models of CC were constructed to evaluate the role of LINC01305 in vivo.
Results: The expression of LINC01305 was evidently elevated in CC tissues and cell lines than that in controls and associated with clinicopathological features. Downregulating LINC01305 suppressed malignant phenotypes (proliferation, migration, invasion) of Hela and SiHa cells. In addition, silencing miR-129-5p by its inhibitor eliminated the inhibition of growth and metastasis induced by LINC01305 siRNA. Sox4 might serve as a direct target for miR-129-5p and was negatively regulated by miR-129-5p and LINC01305.
Conclusion: LINC01305 acts as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) and regulates Sox4 via sponging miR-129-5p, contributing to the diagnosis and treatment of CC.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is prone to metastasis and is a leading cause of mortality. The cytoskeleton is closely related to cell morphology and movement; however, little research has been conducted on ESCC metastasis. In this study, we found that the anchoring filament protein ladinin 1 (LAD1) specifically binds to LINC01305 for co-regulating the level of modulating cortactin proteins (CTTN) and neuronal Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) phosphorylation, which mediates cytoskeletal reorganization and affects the metastasis of ESCC cells.

EsophageaL squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common and lethal tumors, however, its underlying molecular mechanisms are not completely understood and new therapeutic targets are needed. Here, we found that the transcription factor basonuclin 1 (BNC1) was significantly upregulated and closely related to the differentiation and metastasis of ESCC. Furthermore, BNC1, LINC01305, and G-protein pathway suppressor 1 (GPS1) had significant oncogenic roles in ESCC.

Background: To investigate the prognostic value of ferroptosis-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to construct a prognostic risk and immune activity model.
Methods: We obtained clinical and RNA-seq information on OSCC patient data in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Genome Data Sharing (GDC) portal. Through a combination of a differential analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and Cox regression analysis, ferroptosis-related lncRNAs were identified, and a prognostic model was established based on these ferroptosis-related lncRNAs.

Given the high incidence and high mortality of cervical cancer (CC) among women in developing countries, identifying reliable biomarkers for the prediction of prognosis and therapeutic response is crucial. We constructed a prognostic signature of cuproptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as a reference for individualized clinical treatment. A total of seven cuproptosis-related lncRNAs closely related to the prognosis of patients with CC were identified and used to construct a prognostic signature via least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis in the training set.

Evidence shows that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) modulate mRNAs of multiple genes by post-transcriptional regulation. However, in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, lncRNAs involvement in post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs have been rarely reported. In this study, we investigated a novel mechanism of linc01305 promoting metastasis and proliferation of ESCC.
