Background: Our previous study demonstrated that lncRNA GIHCG is upregulated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and that knockdown of lncRNA GIHCG suppresses the proliferation and migration of RCC cells. However, the mechanism of lncRNA GIHCG in RCC needs further exploration.

Methods: The proliferation, cell cycle, migration, and apoptosis of RCC cells were tested using CCK-8, flow cytometry, wound healing and Annexin-V/-FITC/PI flow cytometry assays, respectively. Dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down or RNA immunoprecipitation assays (RIPs) were performed to analyze the interactions among lncRNA GIHCG, miR-499a-5p and XIAP. A tumour xenograft study was conducted to verify the function of lncRNA GIHCG in RCC development in vivo.

Results: Knockdown of lncRNA GIHCG inhibited cell proliferation and migration and induced G0/G1 arrest while promoting apoptosis. Overexpression of lncRNA GIHCG led to the opposite results. LncRNA GIHCG sponged miR-499a-5p and downregulated its expression in RCC cells. MiR-499a-5p overexpression suppressed RCC cell growth. MiR-499a-5p targeted XIAP and inhibited its expression. LncRNA GIHCG knockdown reduced the growth of tumour xenografts in vivo and the expression of XIAP while increasing miR-499a-5p levels.

Conclusion: LncRNA GIHCG accelerated the development of RCC by targeting miR-499a-5p and increasing XIAP levels.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive, heterogeneous brain tumor in which glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) are known culprits of therapy resistance. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play a critical role in both cancer and normal biology. A few studies have suggested that aberrant expression of lncRNAs is associated with GSCs.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly aggressive malignant disease, and numerous studies have shown that certain functional long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in the progression of several cancers. The purpose of the research was to determine, using a database, bioinformatics, and statistical analysis, whether or not lncRNA PRR7-AS1 (PRR7-AS1) was related to HCC. TCGA datasets were used to conduct research on the PRR7-AS1 expression pattern in HCC.

To screen long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) related to the prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma patients, detect its expression in cholangiocarcinoma tissue, and analyze its clinical significance by analyzing The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Using limma package, survival package, and survival receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) package of R software to analyze the data of cholangiocarcinoma in TCGA and screen the differentially expressed lncRNAs related to patient survival. Real-time PCR and Fish were used to detect the expression of lncRNA and analyze its correlation with the clinical characteristics of patients.

Background: Esophageal cancer is one of the most frequent cancers with a higher mortality worldwide. Although many long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are reported to play important roles in the progression of esophageal cancer, the function of lncRNA GIHCG in esophageal cancer remains unclear.

Methods: The expression of GIHCG in esophageal cancer tissues and cancer cell lines was detected by qRT-PCR.
