Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proved to play a vital role in pancreatic cancer (PC). However, the role of lncRNA FAM83A-AS1 in PC remains unclear. In this study, we explored the biological function and underlying mechanism of FAM83A-AS1 in PC cells.
Methods: The FAM83A-AS1 expression was assessed via public databases and validated by qRT-PCR. The biofunction and immune cell infiltration of FAM83A-AS1 were analyzed through GO, KEGG, GESA and ssGSEA. The migration, invasion and proliferation abilities of PC cells were examined by Transwell, wound healing, CCK8 and colony formation. The EMT and Hippo pathway markers were evaluated by western blot.
Results: FAM83A-AS1 expression was higher in PC tissues and cells than normal. Additionally, FAM83A-AS1 was associated with poor prognosis of PC and involved in cadherin binding and immune infiltration. Subsequently, we proved FAM83A-AS1 overexpression enhanced the migration, invasion and proliferation abilities of PC cells, whereas FAM83A-AS1 downregulation inhibited those. Moreover, western blot results showed that FAM83A-AS1 knockdown increased the E-cadherin expression and decreased the expression of N-cadherin, β-catenin, Vimentin, Snail and Slug. On the contrary, FAM83A-AS1 upregulation results in the opposite effects. Besides, FAM83A-AS1 overexpression inhibited the expression of p-YAP, p-MOB1, p-Lats1, SAV1, MST1 and MST2 as well as the results of FAM83A-AS1 knockdown were opposite.
Conclusion: FAM83A-AS1 promoted EMT of PC cells via Hippo signaling inactivation and may be a potential diagnosis and prognosis target.

Background: Thoracotomy is a common treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the significant trauma from this procedure can limit patients' postoperative prognosis. Therefore, it's crucial to find an easily detected indicator that can predict the prognosis of NSCLC patients undergoing thoracotomy.

Background: Lung cancer is a prevalent form of cancer worldwide. A possible link between lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been suggested by recent studies. The objective of our research was to analyze the mRNA expression patterns in both situations, with a specific emphasis on their biological functions and the pathways they are linked to.

Genomic instability (GI) was associated with tumorigenesis. However, GI-related lncRNA signature (GILncSig) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is still unknown. In this study, the lncRNA expression data, somatic mutation information and clinical survival information of LUAD were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and performed differential analysis.

Background: Immunotherapy has changed the treatment landscape for lung cancer. This study aims to construct a tumor mutation-related model that combines long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression levels and tumor mutation levels in tumor genomes to detect the possibilities of the lncRNA signature as an indicator for predicting the prognosis and response to immunotherapy in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
Methods: We downloaded the tumor mutation profiles and RNA-seq expression database of LUAD from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

An increasing number of studies have shown that FAM83A, a member of the family with sequence similarity 83 (FAM83), which consists of eight members, is a key tumor therapeutic target involved in multiple signaling pathways. It has been reported that FAM83A plays essential roles in the regulation of Wnt/β-catenin, EGFR, MAPK, EMT, and other signaling pathways and physiological processes in models of pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and other malignant tumors. Moreover, the expression of FAM83A could be significantly affected by multiple noncoding RNAs that are dysregulated in malignant tumors, the dysregulation of which is essential for the malignant process.
