AI Article Synopsis

  • LINC00665 is a long non-coding RNA that significantly affects the aggressive nature of glioma, a type of brain cancer, with higher levels correlating to more severe tumor characteristics and poorer prognosis.* -
  • Experiments showed that increasing LINC00665 in glioma cells promotes their growth and movement, while reducing LINC00665 has the opposite effect, highlighting its role in cancer cell malleability.* -
  • The study identifies a mechanism where LINC00665 binds to miR-129-5p, which in turn boosts the expression of HMGB1, a protein linked to tumor growth, suggesting LINC00665 could be a potential target for glioma treatment.*

Article Abstract

Background: LncRNA LINC00665 partakes in controlling the malignant phenotype of cancer cells, but its role in glioma and the related regulatory mechanism remain uncertain.

Methods: RT-PCR was exploited to examine LINC00665 expression. The relationships among the LINC00665 expression, the clinicopathologic values and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of glioma were analyzed. The multiplication, movement, and aggressiveness of glioma cell lines were evaluated by CCK-8, EdU, and Transwell experiments after constructing LINC00665 overexpression and LINC00665 knockdown cell models. A dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment and RIP experiment were executed to validate the interactions between LINC00665 and miR-129-5p, and between miR-129-5p and HMGB1. Western blot and RT-PCR were conducted to find the impact of LINC00665 and miR-129-5p on HMGB1 expression. Nude mouse model was also constructed to examine the impact of LINC00665 on multiplication and aggressiveness of glioma cells .

Results: LINC00665 expression was markedly increased in glioma. High LINC00665 expression in glioma was closely linked to larger tumor diameter, higher pathologic grade, heterogeneous MRI signal of the tumor, increased peritumoral edema, and stronger MRI enhancement characteristics. LINC00665 overexpression facilitated the malignant behavior of glioma cells, while LINC00665 knockdown played the reverse role. Mechanistically, LINC00665 could decoy miR-129-5p, and indirectly increased HMGB1 expression.

Conclusion: LINC00665 functions as an oncogenic lncRNA in glioma, to accelerate glioma progression by modulating miR-129-5p and increasing HMGB1 expression.

Background: Novel ZNF genes, such as ZNF671, that are located on chromosome 19q13 are known to be hypermethylated at a high frequency in HNSCC as well as in other epithelial solid tumors. Their function is largely unknown.

Results: Here, we show that ZNF671 is epigenetically silenced in HNSCC primary tumors compared to matched adjacent normal tissue.

Breast cancer is a prevalent and aggressive disease characterized by high metastasis, recurrence, and mortality rates. While cisplatin is an effective chemotherapy drug, its use is limited by its toxic effects on the body. Despite advancements in therapeutic strategies, the therapeutic response is often unsatisfactory due to drug resistance, leading to poor prognosis.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) serve as critical mediators of tumor progression and drug resistance in cancer. Herein, we identified a lncRNA, LINC00665, associated with trastuzumab resistance and development in gastric cancer (GC). LINC00665 was highly expressed in GC tissues and high expression of LINC00665 was correlated with poor prognosis.

Anoikis, a form of programmed cell death induced by loss of cell contact, is closely associated with tumor invasion and metastasis, making it highly significant in lung cancer research. We examined the expression patterns and prognostic relevance of Anoikis-related genes (ARGs) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) using the TCGA-LUAD database. This study identified molecular subtypes associated with Anoikis in LUAD and conducted functional enrichment analyses.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to participate in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, including tumor initiation and development. Nevertheless, few of them have been investigated in chondrosarcoma. Here, we were intended to unveil the role of long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 665 (LINC00665) in chondrosarcoma.
