          Abstract

          Background

          LncRNA has an effective value in many diseases, which has long been applied in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of prostate cancer. This study focused on lncRNA PITPNA-AS1, and its diagnostic potential in prostate cancer has been explored.

          Methods

          The expression of PITPNA-AS1 and miR-129-5p in prostate cancer serum and sample cells was determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The relationship between the expression of PITPNA-AS1 and clinicopathological parameters was considered. ROC curve prompted the diagnostic value of PITPNA-AS1. The effect of PITPNA-AS1 on prostate cancer cells was verified using vitro cells assay. Luciferase activity assay and RIP assay demonstrated the sponge relationship of PITPNA-AS1 to miR-129-5p.

          Results

          PITPNA-AS1 level was increased, while miR-129-5p was obviously decreased in prostate cancer. PITPNA-AS1 expression was associated with Gleason grade, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage in patients. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.910, with high sensitivity and specificity. PITPNA-AS1 was elucidated to directly target miR-129-5p, whereas silencing PITPNA-AS1 negatively affected prostate cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Intervention of miR-129-5p inhibitor reversed the effect of silencing PITPNA-AS1 on cells.

          Conclusions

          PITPNA-AS1 was relatively highly expressed in prostate cancer and mediated the pathophysiological process of patients, which may serve as a diagnostic indicator. Silencing of the PITPNA-AS1 sponge miR-129-5p inhibited the biological function of the cells, indicating that PITPNA-AS1 may represent a novel therapeutic target for prostate cancer.

          LncRNA HOXA-AS2 and its molecular mechanisms in human cancer

          Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a novel class of noncoding RNAs, are commonly defined as RNA molecules more than 200 nucleotides in length. Emerging research indicated that lncRNA played a vital role in human tumorigenesis and progression by serving as tumor oncogenes or suppressors. LncRNA has been shown to get involved in participate various biological processes, such as cell growth, anti-apoptosis, migration and invasion. LncRNA HOXA cluster antisense RNA2 (HOXA-AS2) is a novel cancer-related lncRNA. It was recently found to exhibit aberrant expression in a variety of malignancies, including breast cancer, gastric cancer, gallbladder carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and pancreatic cancer. The oncogenicity of lncRNA HOXA-AS2 mainly inhibits or promotes the expression of related genes through direct or indirect pathways, suggesting that HOXA-AS2 likely represents a feasible biomarker or therapeutic target in human cancers. In this review, we summarize current evidences concerning the biological functions and mechanisms of HOXA-AS2 during tumor development.

              HOTAIR LncRNA: A novel oncogenic propellant in human cancer

              Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an important novel class of non-coding RNAs having lengths of 200 nucleotides and low expression. The HOX Transcript Antisense Intergenic RNA (HOTAIR) is one of the most extensively studied lncRNAs found dysregulated in human cancer. Although a growing body of evidence suggests a role fo HOTAIR in pathogenesis, disease progression, drug resistance and reduced survival, its mechanism of action remains largely unclear. Recent studies have identified that HOTAIR facilitates protein-protein interaction thereby affecting diverse pathways in cancer such as epigenetic reprogramming, protein stability and signal transduction. HOTAIR has been shown to promote tumor progression by regulating microRNA expression and function. Moreover, several HOTAIR gene variants have recently been identified and found to increase cancer susceptibility. Here we review recent data on the critical role of HOTAIR in human malignancy and its potential mechanism of action. A more comprehensive understanding of this unique lncRNA is critical to elucidating the pro-oncogenic function of HOTAIR its potential application in diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.
