Long noncoding RNASEH1-AS1 exacerbates the progression of non-small cell lung cancer by acting as a ceRNA to regulate microRNA-516a-5p/FOXK1 and thereby activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundTill now, no study has focused on the functions of RNASEH1 antisense RNA 1 (RNASEH1-AS1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Accordingly, we measured the expression of RNASEH1-AS1 in NSCLC and characterized its functions in detail. Finally, our research elucidated the mechanisms that occurred downstream of RNASEH1-AS1.

methodsRNASEH1-AS1 expression was examined utilizing TCGA database and qRT-PCR. Functional experiments were conducted to study the tumor-associated functions of RNASEH1-AS1. The targeting relationship among RNASEH1-AS1, microRNA-516a-5p (miR-516a-5p), and forkhead box K1 (FOXK1) was revealed utilizing RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays.

resultsUtilizing TCGA database and our own cohort, we found a significantly increased level of RNASEH1-AS1 in NSCLC. The high level of RNASEH1-AS1 was markedly related with poor clinical outcomes. Knockdown of RNASEH1-AS1 expression inhibited NSCLC cell growth, metastatic capacities, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition and promoted the apoptosis in vitro, whereas RNASEH1-AS1 overexpression exerted the opposite effects. Additionally, knocking down RNASEH1-AS1 expression suppressed tumor growth in vivo. RNASEH1-AS1 was confirmed to act as a miR-516a-5p sponge, consequently upregulating FOXK1 expression in NSCLC cells. As revealed by the subsequent rescue experiments, the miR-516a-5p/FOXK1 axis served as a downstream effector of RNASEH1-AS1. In addition, by controlling the miR-516a-5p/FOXK1 axis, RNASEH1-AS1 was capable of activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

conclusionRNASEH1-AS1 exacerbated the oncogenicity of NSCLC by affecting the miR-516a-5p/FOXK1 axis and consequently promoting the activation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Our newly identified RNASEH1-AS1/miR-516a-5p/FOXK1/Wnt/β-catenin network may offer an interesting foundation for NSCLC treatment in the clinic.
