{Abstract}: UNASSIGNED: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a malignancy usually associated with smoking or alcohol consumption. The involvement of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the regulation of tumor development and metastasis through molecular mechanisms has been unveiled by accumulating evidence. However, the function of lncRNA SUMO1 Pseudogene 3 (lncSUMO1P3) essential to ESCC development remains obscure.
UNASSIGNED: Reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot (WB) analysis were done to measure RNA and protein levels. Functional assays were carried out to examine the changes in ESCC cell phenotype. Supported by bioinformatics analysis, mechanism assays were done for assessment of putative interactions among different genes.
UNASSIGNED: LlncSUMO1P3 was aberrantly up-regulated in ESCC cell lines, and lncSUMO1P3 deficiency could hamper cell proliferation, migration and invasion as well as epithelial-mesenchymaltransition (EMT) in ESCC while lncSUMO1P3 overexpression led to the opposite consequences. LncSUMO1P3 could competitively bind to microRNA-486-5p (miR-486-5p) or PHD finger protein 8 (PHF8) to modulate CD151 expression. CD151 was also verified to regulate ESCC cell biological behaviors.
UNASSIGNED: Our study revealed that lncSUMO1P3, up-regulated in ESCC cells, could sponge miR-486-5p and recruit PHF8 to up-regulate CD151, thus influencing the malignant behaviors of ESCC cells.
