Abstract

Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a regulatory role in the pathogenesis and progression of retinoblastoma (RB). lncRNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) is highly expressed in a plenty of tumors, and is believed to serve as an oncogene. However, the expression, roles, and action mechanisms of PVT1 in the carcinogenesis and progression of RB are still largely unknown. In this study, we found that PVT1 was upregulated in RB tissues and cell lines. PVT1 levels correlated with optic nerve invasion, and intraocular international retinoblastoma classify (IIRC) stage. In addition, the results demonstrated that patients with RB who showed higher expression of PVT1 had worse overall survivals. In WERI-Rb1 and Y79 cells, PVT1 silencing significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and cell cycle progression and induced cell apoptosis in vitro. Moreover, in vivo xenograft assay indicated that PVT1 knockdown suppressed the tumor volume and tumor weight. The analysis of the mechanisms of action revealed that the reduction of PVT1 inhibited the expression of notch2 by upregulating miR-488-3p. In general, our results demonstrated that PVT1 may be a novel biomarker for prognosis an...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.
