LncRNA DDX11-AS1 Exerts Oncogenic Roles in Glioma Through Regulating miR-499b-5p/RWDD4 Axis

BACKGROUND: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) exert essential functions during tumorigenesis. However, how lncRNAs participate in glioma development remains poorly researched. This study aimed to determine how DDX11-AS1 affects glioma progression. METHODS: Gene expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR. Surviva...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) exert essential functions during tumorigenesis. However, how lncRNAs participate in glioma development remains poorly researched. This study aimed to determine how DDX11-AS1 affects glioma progression. METHODS: Gene expression was analyzed by qRT-PCR. Survival rate curve was plotted in 56 glioma patients. Loss-of-function assays were performed to analyze proliferation, migration, and invasion through CCK8, colony formation, and transwell assays. Luciferase assay and RNA pulldown assays were conducted to illustrate the underlying molecular mechanism. RESULTS: DDX11-AS1 expression was upregulated in glioma tissues and cells. DDX11-AS1 overexpression was linked with poor prognostic value. DDX11-AS1 knockdown suppressed proliferation, migration, and invasion while inducing apoptosis. DDX11-AS1 interacted with miR-499b-5p to eliminate it, leading to upregulation of RWDD4 expression. RWDD4 was upregulated in glioma while miR-499b-5p was downregulated. CONCLUSION: DDX11-AS1 upregulation promotes glioma progression through acting as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-499b-5p to upregulate RWDD4.
