ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a prevalent malignancy. SNHG15 has been demonstrated to be oncogenic in many kinds of cancers, however the mechanism of SNHG15 in LUAD cisplatin (DDP) resistance remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrated the effect of SNHG15 on DDP resistance in LUAD and its related mechanism.METHODS:
Bioinformatics analysis was adopted to assess SNHG15 expression in LUAD tissues and predict the downstream genes of SNHG15. The binding relationship between SNHG15 and downstream regulatory genes was proved through RNA immunoprecipitation, chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays. Cell counting kit-8 assay was adopted to evaluate LUAD cell viability, and gene expression was determined by Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. We then performed comet assay to assess DNA damage. Cell apoptosis was detected by Tunnel assay. Xenograft animal models were created to test the function of SNHG15 in vivo.RESULTS:
SNHG15 was up-regulated in LUAD cells. Moreover, SNHG15 was also highly expressed in drug-resistant LUAD cells. Down-regulated SNHG15 strengthened the sensitivity of LUAD cells to DDP and induced DNA damage. SNHG15 could elevate ECE2 expression through binding with E2F1, and it could induce DDP resistance by modulating the E2F1/ECE2 axis. In vivo experiments verified that the SNHG15 could enhance DDP resistance in LUAD tissue.CONCLUSION:
The results suggested that SNHG15 could up-regulate ECE2 expression by recruiting E2F1, thereby enhancing the DDP resistance of LUAD.Key words
