Abstract

Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been identified in multiple human cancer types, including lung cancer. An increasing number of studies have indicated that lncRNAs can function as important gene regulators. However, the biological mechanism of LINC00961 in lung cancerremains poorly understood. In our current study, we recognized lncRNA LINC00961, and we observed that it was significantly reduced in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues. LINC00961 was elevated by infecting LV-LINC00961, while decreased by LV-shLINC00961 in H226 and A549 cells. Furthermore, it was shown that LINC00961 overexpression greatly inhibited lung cancer cell proliferation, whereas downregulated LINC00961 induced cell proliferation. In addition, further experiments showed that restoration of LINC00961 could dramatically increase apoptotic ratios of NSCLC H226 and A549 cells, and knockdown of LINC00961 exhibited an opposite effect. Moreover, Western blot analysis showed that upregulation of LINC00961 repressed proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression and increased Bax expression, indicating that it acts as an important pro-apoptosis gene. Conversely, inhibition of LINC00961 induced proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression and restrai...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

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.
