ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor, long non-coding RNA and microRNA (miRNA) are important regulators that affect tumor proliferation, metastasis and chemotherapy resistance, and thus participate in tumor progression. CASC19 is a new bio-marker which can promote tumor invasion and metastasis. However, the mechanism by which CASC19 affects the progression of GC through miRNA is not clear.AIM:
To explore the role of the CASC19/miR-491-5p/HMGA2 regulatory axis in GC.METHODS:
To explore the expression and prognosis of CASC19 in GC through clinical samples, and investigate the effects of inhibiting CASC19 on the proliferation, migration, invasion and other functions of GC cells through cell counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), ethynyldeoxyuridine, Wound healing assay, Transwell, Western blot and flow cytometry experiments. The effect of miR-491-5p and HMGA2 in GC were also proved. The regulatory relationship between CASC19 and miR-491-5p, miR-491-5p and HMGA2 were validated through Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and reverse transcription PCR. Then CCK-8, Transwell, Wound healing assay, flow cytometry and animal experiments verify the role of CASC19/miR-491-5p/HMGA2 regulatory axis.RESULTS:
The expression level of CASC19 is related to the T stage, N stage, and tumor size of patients. Knockdown of the expression of CASC19 can inhibit the ability of proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT conversion of GC cells, and knocking down the expression of CASC19 can promote the apoptosis of GC cells. Increasing the expression of miR-491-5p can inhibit the proliferation of GC cells, miR-491-5p mimics can inhibit EMT conversion, and promote the apoptosis of GC cells, while decreasing the expression of miR-491-5p can promote the proliferation and EMT conversion and inhibit the apoptosis of GC cells. The expression of HMGA2 in GC tissues is higher than that in adjacent tissues. At the same time, the expression level of HMGA2 is related to the N and T stages of the patients. Reducing the level of HMGA2 can promote cell apoptosis and inhibit the proliferation of GC cells. Cell experiments and animal experiments have proved that CASC19 can regulates the expression of HMGA2 through miR-491-5p, thereby affecting the biological functions of GC.CONCLUSION:
CASC19 regulates the expression of HMGA2 through miR-491-5p to affect the development of GC. This axis may serve as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target of GC.
