Description
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the function
of long non-coding RNA FOXD2 adjacent opposite
strand RNA 1 (lncRNA FOXD2-AS1) during the
progression of esophagus cancer (EC) and explore its
underlying molecular mechanisms. The level of
FOXD2-AS1 in EC tissues and paracancerous tissues
was detected by using RT-qPCR; ROC curve was used to
evaluate the diagnostic value of FOXD2-AS1 for EC. In
addition, CCK8 assay and immunofluorescence staining
assay were used to detect the proliferation of Eca-109
and TE-1 cells. To investigate the function of FOXD2-
AS1 on cell apoptosis and cell cycle, flow cytometry
was performed. To detect the invasion ability of EC
cells, transwell invasion assay was performed.
Starbase3.0 and Targetscan were used to predict the
target genes of FOXD2-AS1 and miR-145-5p, and
protein expressions were detected with western blot. We
found FOXD2-AS1 was significantly upregulated in EC
tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues, which
was positively correlated with clinicopathological
parameters of patients with EC. Downregulation of
FOXD2-AS1 inhibited the proliferation and invasion by
inducing apoptosis of EC cells. Moreover, FOXD2-AS1
may regulate the expression of CDK6 by targeting miR-
145-3p. Meanwhile, silencing of FOXD2-AS1 caused
G1 phase arrest of EC cells by reducing the expression
of CDK6. In conclusion, silening FOXD2-AS1
significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of
EC cells by regulating the miR-145-5p/CDK6 axis.
Therefore, FOXD2-AS1 might be used as diagnostic
biomarker and therapeutic target for EC
