Abstract |
Background |
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOXD cluster antisense RNA 1 (HOXD-AS1) functions as a crucial regulator in the progression and development of tumors. The aim of this study is to unravel the underlying mechanisms of HOXD-AS1 on epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).
Methods |
43 paired EOC tissues and adjacent non-tumor tissues were collected postoperatively from patients. QRT-PCR was used to explore HOXD-AS1 expression in both EOC tissues and cell lines. Cell proliferation and invasion were monitored by MTT assay and transwell invasion assay.
Results |
In the current study, we found that the expression of HOXD-AS1 was upregulated in EOC tissues and cell lines. High HOXD-AS1 expression was correlated with advanced FIGO stage, lymph node metastasis, and poor overall survival in EOC patients. We also showed that HOXD-AS1 promoted cell proliferation, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling in EOC cells. Furthermore, we found that miR-133a-3p was a direct downstream target of HOXD-AS1 in EOC. HOXD-AS1 promoted cell proliferation, invasion, and EMT process through sponging miR-133a-3p in EOC cells.
Conclusion |
Our study indicated that lncRNA HOXD-AS1 promoted the proliferation, invasion, and EMT process of EOC cells via targeting miR-133a-3p and activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
