The N-terminal polypeptide derived from vMIP-II exerts its anti-tumor activity in human breast cancer by regulating lncRNA SPRY4-IT1

Accumulating evidence demonstrates that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) sprouty4-intron transcript 1 (lncRNA SPRY4-IT1) plays a vital role in the development of breast cancer. However, the underlying mechanism has not been eventually illuminated. We aimed to explore the biological activity of lncRNA SP...

Sumario:Accumulating evidence demonstrates that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) sprouty4-intron transcript 1 (lncRNA SPRY4-IT1) plays a vital role in the development of breast cancer. However, the underlying mechanism has not been eventually illuminated. We aimed to explore the biological activity of lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 in breast cancer cells and whether N-terminal polypeptide derived from viral macrophage inflammatory protein II (NT21MP) could exert its anti-tumor effect by regulating lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 and its target gene SKA2. Real-time RT-PCR, Western blotting, wound healing, and invasion assays were used to achieve this goal. We found that lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 was highly expressed in breast cancer cells. Moreover, NT21MP markedly inhibited biological effects of breast cancer cells by regulating lncRNA SPRY4-IT1, which was partially achieved through SKA2. Our findings suggested that lncRNA SPRY4-IT1 could serve as a novel biomarker by NT21MP for breast cancer.
